Low-Profile Thermoplastic LED Emergency Light – Dual 0.5 W Heads — Features & Specs
The E‑1 low‑profile thermoplastic LED emergency light delivers reliable, code‑compliant egress illumination in a compact, durable enclosure. Twin adjustable LED lamp heads, a 90‑minute battery backup, and quick snap‑fit mounting make it an easy upgrade across commercial interiors. For related options, see our thermoplastic emergency lights, compare broader categories of LED emergency lights, and review exterior‑rated choices under damp/wet‑location emergency lights.

Specifications (Overview)
- Light Heads: Two adjustable 0.5 W LED lamps (HL option: 2.0 W each).
- Runtime: 90 minutes (UL 924).
- Input: 120/277 VAC (opt. SPV 208/220/240 VAC).
- Battery: 3.6 V Ni‑Cd.
- Environment: Damp‑location rated (0–30 °C).
Illumination
- Two 0.5 W LED lampheads with integrated reflectors for efficient corridor coverage.
- HL option increases output to 2.0 W per head for wider spacing.
- Design‑aid spacing example: up to 30 ft on a 3 ft path at 10 ft mounting height (validate with photometrics).
Electrical
- Universal 120/277 VAC input (optional SPV 208/220/240 VAC).
- Bi‑color status LED and push‑to‑test switch for routine checks.

Mounting
- Snap‑fit backplate for standard 4" junction boxes.
- Surface wall or ceiling mount; top/side ½" conduit knockouts included.
Housing
- Injection‑molded, impact‑resistant thermoplastic (white or black).
- Low‑profile form factor minimizes visual clutter in finished interiors.
Options
- SPV — 208/220/240 VAC input.
- HL — high‑lumen 2 W heads (not compatible with RC).
- RC — 1 W remote‑capacity output at 6 V (not compatible with HL); see remote‑capable emergency lights.
Warranty / Listings
- 5‑year warranty on electronics and housing; battery prorated 5 years.
- UL 924 listed for damp locations (0 °C – 30 °C).
- Compliant with NFPA 101, NEC, and OSHA.
Dimensions
- 7 ¼" W × 4 ½" H × 2 ¾" D
Applications & Layout Tips
- Where to use: Offices, corridors, stair runs, classrooms, reception zones, clinic suites—any interior needing a compact, budget‑friendly emergency light.
- Mounting height: The 30‑ft example assumes 10 ft MH, neutral reflectances, and clear lines of sight. Dark finishes or shelves reduce spacing.
- Aiming: Start with each head tilted 10–20° to overlap beams along the egress path; adjust to limit hotspots and shadowing at door thresholds.
- Circuiting: Provide an unswitched feed to the charger/transfer circuit per code; if sharing with a switched lighting branch, ensure a constant hot is present.
Maintenance & Testing
- Monthly: 30‑second functional test (push‑to‑test; SDT models automate).
- Annually: Full 90‑minute discharge test; record results for inspection.
- Battery care: Replace the Ni‑Cd pack when capacity falls below code‑required runtime; allow ~24 hours to recharge after a full test.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the emergency runtime?
The E‑1 provides a minimum of 90 minutes using its 3.6 V Ni‑Cd battery (UL 924 compliant).
Can it be ceiling‑mounted?
Yes. The snap‑fit backplate aligns with 4" junction boxes and includes knockouts for wall or ceiling mounting.
Can I increase brightness?
Choose the HL option for 2.0 W heads and extended spacing. (Not compatible with the RC option.)
Is it rated for damp locations?
Yes. It’s UL 924 damp‑location listed for operation from 0 °C to 30 °C.
Does it support remote heads?
RC models provide 1 W of remote capacity (6 V output) to power compatible remote heads; not compatible with the HL option.
