Edge-Lit LED Exit Sign – Connecticut Code, Wheelchair Symbol

Choose CT900E/CT900W when the project calls for Connecticut code accessible exit signage with a wheelchair symbol in an edge-lit format. The family is intended for commercial egress routes where the sign must provide both the EXIT legend and accessibility symbol in a code-legible presentation.

• Best for Connecticut projects with accessible egress signage requirements in the drawings or specifications.
• Use standard edge-lit exit signs instead when the wheelchair symbol is not required.
• Confirm final interpretation with the building plans and local code official before ordering.

The CT900E family pairs an EXIT legend with the wheelchair symbol and uses 6 in characters with 3/4 in stroke for a 100 ft viewing distance. Select red or green letters to match the building standard and authority requirement.

• Red and green LED letter variants are available.
• Clear acrylic panels support the edge-lit appearance.
• Double-face variants use mirror or white inserts depending on the selected configuration.

The option set combines face count, mounting style, and power source because those choices define the physical sign assembly. Select single-face for one-direction viewing and double-face where occupants approach from two directions.

• Mounting paths include recessed ceiling, surface ceiling, wall recessed, surface wall, and surface end depending on option.
• AC-only variants are for normal-power or separately backed systems.
• With-battery variants add integral Ni-Cd emergency operation.

Battery-backup models include a maintenance-free Ni-Cd pack for emergency operation. Standard battery variants provide 90-minute runtime, while TF variants extend runtime to 120 minutes where the project requires it.

• Dual-primary 120/277 V, 60 Hz input.
• Low-voltage disconnect, brownout, overload, and short-circuit protection on emergency electronics.
• Typical recharge is approximately 24 hours after a full discharge.

Panel and finish selections should match the interior design package and visibility needs. The CT900E family uses a clear acrylic panel with mirror or white insert options on double-face or selected configurations.

• Finish options include brushed aluminum, polished aluminum, and white by variant.
• 20-gauge steel backbox, trim, and enclosure support a more robust edge-lit assembly.
• Panel and finish availability depends on letter color, mounting, and face configuration.

Select options only when the building plans call for them. IV changes the panel orientation, TF changes runtime, and USA supports Buy American / BAA purchasing requirements on available variants.

• IV: inverted panel with down-facing legend orientation.
• TF: 120-minute Ni-Cd emergency runtime option.
• USA: Buy American / BAA option on select configurations.
• ER1-KIT pendant accessory may be used where the installation requires a pendant condition.

The CT900E family is CSA listed and intended to meet or exceed UL 924, NEC, NFPA 101, and CEC context when specified and installed correctly. Verify final acceptability with the local code official for the Connecticut project.

• Configured for Connecticut Section 1011.1.2 wheelchair-accessible exit signage applications.
• Operating temperature range is 10-40 deg C / 50-104 deg F.
• CT900E electronics and housing are covered for 5 years, with the Ni-Cd battery handled on a prorated 5-year schedule.

Use another exit sign family when the wheelchair symbol is not required, when the project calls for a wet-location or outdoor sign, or when the design calls for a different jurisdiction-specific sign format.

• Use standard edge-lit exit signs for non-Connecticut, non-accessible-symbol applications.
• Use wet-location or NEMA-rated exit signs for exposed exterior areas.
• Use recessed-only architectural signs when the ceiling detail requires a dedicated recessed platform.

• Confirm Connecticut code applicability, wheelchair-symbol requirements, final fixture placement, and local code approval for the project.
• Match letter color, face count, mounting method, finish, runtime, and Buy American option to the project schedule before ordering.
• Use a wet-location or NEMA-rated exit sign for exterior, washdown, or wet-location applications.
