Key Features
- Power-free operation: no wiring, batteries, or bulbs—zero energy cost.
- 100 ft legibility with high-contrast raised letters for blackout conditions.
- Field-selectable chevrons included for fast arrow configuration.
- Non-toxic, non-radioactive photoluminescent substrate.
- Hazard considerations: non-electrical signage is typically acceptable in explosion-risk areas; final acceptance in classified locations is at the AHJ’s discretion (this is not UL 844 electrical equipment). Listed for floor-proximity installation.
- Long service life: 25+ year life expectancy with minimal maintenance.

FAQs About EG100 (100-ft Photoluminescent)
What makes the EG100 different from standard 100-ft PL signs?
EG100 combines a raised-letter legend, broad plan-review approvals (ICC ES 6040, CA SFM, LA RR), and BAA/BABA compliance in an interior-only package. It’s designed for long interior sightlines where non-electrical signage is preferred.
Can I use EG100 in hazardous (classified) locations?
Because EG100 is non-electrical, it is typically acceptable where electrical ignition sources are restricted. However, it is not UL 844 explosion-proof equipment. Final acceptance for classified areas is determined by your AHJ; submit the spec sheet and listings for review.
When should I specify floor-proximity EG100 units?
Low-level placement can aid wayfinding when smoke lifts the hot layer above head height. Use EG100 at high-location and floor-proximity to bracket the path where codes or your life-safety plan call for redundant marking.
What documentation should I include for plan review?
Provide the UL 924 listing page, ICC ES 6040 evaluation report, CA SFM and LA RR listings, the spec sheet, and a note that the face receives ≥ 5 fc (54 lux) during occupancy at the installed height.
How do temperature extremes affect performance?
EG100 is rated from -20 °F to 150 °F. Charging may occur more slowly near the low end of the range; ensure egress lighting delivers the target face illuminance during occupancy. Do not use outdoors or in wet areas—choose a wet-location model instead.
Can I mount EG100 with adhesive only?
No. Use the mechanical mounting hardware provided (surface, flag, or ceiling/stem). Adhesives alone can creep over time and do not provide compliant anchorage for life-safety signage.
Is EG100 suitable where strong disinfectants are used (healthcare/food)?
Yes—clean with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasives, ammonia, oxidizers, or solvent-based cleaners that can haze the luminous surface or frame finish.
Can EG100 be paired with luminous egress path markings?
Yes. EG100 identifies exits while photoluminescent path-marking products define stairs, handrails, and pathways. Specify both where required by project scope or AHJ guidance.
Are there jurisdictional preferences for red vs. green legends?
Some AHJs specify a legend color; others allow either. EG100 offers red or green—choose the color that meets local rules and maximizes contrast with adjacent finishes.
What should I retain for the inspector after installation?
Keep the product label visible, retain the UL 924 and evaluation listings with the spec sheet, record sign locations/face configuration, and note initial face-illuminance readings for the commissioning file.
