Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the economy model that’s rated for a 50-ft viewing distance?

Yes. This SKU is our economy photoluminescent exit sign listed for a maximum 50-ft viewing distance under UL 924. Use it where corridor sightlines do not exceed 50 ft.

What conditions must be met for this economy 50-ft rating to apply?

The sign face must receive at least 5 foot-candles (54 lux) of continuous illumination during occupancy with a clear line of sight. Insufficient charging light, tinted glazing, or partial obstructions can reduce legibility below 50 ft.

Does mounting method affect the 50-ft performance on this model?

The 50-ft classification is independent of mounting method, but visibility depends on line-of-sight and contrast. Typical placements are over doors or along egress paths; avoid installs where the legend is angled away or partially blocked.

How do I maintain the 50-ft rating if I order the double-face option?

Ensure each face receives ≥ 5 fc during occupancy. For flag/window mounts, confirm both sides are illuminated; an unlit face may not achieve 50-ft legibility.

Do the included chevrons (arrows) change the 50-ft classification on this economy unit?

No—when applied in the margin areas as intended, chevrons do not reduce the 50-ft rating. Do not overlap the EXIT letters; covering the legend can degrade visibility and invalidate the rating.

What legend size and stroke does this 50-ft economy sign use?

7" letter height with a 1" stroke on a photoluminescent PVC substrate, optimized for 50-ft viewing under compliant lighting.

Is this model approved for outdoor or wet locations?

No. This economy model is for indoor, dry/damp locations only. It is not wet-location or hose-down rated.

Which interior environments are appropriate for this economy 50-ft sign?

Standard corridors, stair doors, offices, classrooms, and retail aisles with compliant ambient lighting where approach distances are ≤ 50 ft.

Is this model UL listed and what’s the warranty?

Yes—UL 924 listed and compliant with NFPA 101. 15-year limited warranty.

Any special commissioning steps for this economy model?

After installation, verify ≥ 5 fc at the face during occupied hours and confirm legibility from the intended farthest approach (up to 50 ft). Record these checks for your AHJ/maintenance log.
