Wet Location Combo Exit Signs

Wet Location Exit Sign and Light Combo

The exit sign and emergency light combinations designed for wet-location applications function as reliable egress illumination systems in areas where water exposure occurs or humidity levels are high or washdowns happen frequently. The units achieve UL 924 listing status while meeting requirements from NFPA 101 and OSHA life safety codes. The units serve dual functions as EXIT signs and emergency path lights in a single water-resistant fixture which makes them suitable for outdoor corridors and industrial washdown zones and food processing facilities and parking garages and exposed loading docks.

The combo units consist of a sealed LED EXIT sign face together with adjustable emergency light heads and a built-in battery backup system which delivers at least 90 minutes of power during blackouts. The units include NEMA 4X or IP66 enclosures with gasketed seams and corrosion-resistant finishes and tamper-resistant hardware to protect against harsh conditions.

The system includes optional self-testing diagnostics which perform automated monthly and annual inspection routines while displaying battery and lamp status through an onboard LED indicator. The system features field-selectable chevrons for flexible directional marking during installation and universal mounting hardware that supports wall, ceiling and end configurations in wet or semi-exposed areas.

Wet-location rated combo fixtures serve applications best when separate EXIT signs and emergency lights cannot be installed because of environmental exposure. The single-unit design of these fixtures decreases the number of required fixtures and streamlines electrical installation which makes them suitable for industrial and commercial settings that need both durability and code compliance.
