Remote-Capable Exit Sign & Emergency Light Combos

Remote-capable exit sign & emergency light combos unite an illuminated EXIT legend, on-board adjustable heads, and extra remote-head capacity—lighting the doorway locally and pushing coverage deeper from the same battery system. This all-in-one footprint streamlines wiring, testing, and service at primary egress points. Explore exit sign & emergency light combos, and extend runs with remote heads for emergency lights.

What to Look for in Remote-Capable Exit Sign & Light Combos

  • Three-way load budget: Account for the EXIT legend + on-board heads + all remote heads; choose battery/wattage to keep every load on for 90 minutes with reserve.
  • Door-height coverage + extension: Aim on-board heads to wash the threshold; push coverage deeper with remotes placed around corners or down long corridors, checking wire length, gauge, and voltage drop.
  • Supervised remotes & access: Prefer combos that supervise remote circuits and expose faults by load; ensure front access to indicator, test switch, and battery at installed height.

A remote-capable exit sign & light combo delivers local light at the doorway and extends coverage with remotes from the same battery. Aim on-board heads to wash the landing; place remotes around corners or down long corridors to carry illumination farther, checking wire length, gauge, and drop for each branch.

Plan for doorway realities: combo fixtures can be heavier and sit higher—verify junction-box pattern, projection, and sightlines to the indicator. Choose designs that supervise remote circuits and allow front access to the test switch and battery so monthly checks and service don’t require removing the unit.

Remote-Capable Exit Sign & Light Combos - Specs & Features

  • Three-load sizing: Sum the EXIT legend + on-board heads + all remote heads; select battery/wattage to keep every load on for 90 minutes with reserve for ambient and wiring losses.
  • Door-height photometrics: Aim on-board heads to wash the landing and first corridor segment; extend coverage with remote heads around corners/long runs, verifying brightness at end-of-discharge at the farthest point.
  • Supervised branches: Choose combos that isolate faults by load (legend/head/remote) at the status indicator and offer single-point testing at installed height for faster inspections.
  • Install realities: Confirm junction-box pattern, projection/clearances, and fixture weight at doorway locations; prefer front-service layouts for battery/board access without removing the unit.

FAQs About Remote-Capable Exit Sign & Light Combos

How many remote heads can one combo drive?

It depends on the combo’s remote wattage and voltage (e.g., 6 V or 12 V). Add the watts for on-board heads plus every remote head and ensure the total stays within the unit’s rated remote capacity at 90 minutes.

Can I mix 6 V and 12 V remote heads on the same combo?

No. Remote heads must match the combo’s remote output voltage. Mixing voltages on a branch risks under-illumination or damage. Use only heads listed as compatible with the unit’s remote circuit.

How far can I run remote-head wiring before brightness drops?

Distance is limited by voltage drop. Keep runs short, upsize wire for long distances, and confirm brightness at the end-of-discharge. Always calculate drop to the furthest head on the branch.

Will the combo report a failed remote head?

Choose models with supervised remote circuits. These report branch faults at the fixture’s status indicator so you can service a failed remote without ladder-hunting each head.
