Dual-head LED Emergency Lighting with Remote Capacity

Slim Thermoplastic LED Exit Sign — Field-Selectable Red/Green Legend, Universal Face, 90-min Ni-Cd, 120/277 V — Features & Specs

The ETXTEU thin compact thermoplastic exit sign is a clean, space-saving solution for code-compliant egress markings in modern interiors. Its field-selectable red or green LED legend, universal face configuration (single ? double in the field), and universal mounting kit make it a go-to for fast retrofits and tight ceiling or wall locations. Emergency (EM) versions include a 90-minute Ni-Cd battery with push-to-test diagnostics; AC-only versions are available for dual-circuit applications.

Key Features

• UL 924 listed exit sign; damp-location rated for interior use (0–50 °C / 32–122 °F).
• Field-selectable LED legend in red or green to match building standards or AHJ preferences.
• Universal face: ships single-face and converts to double-face; snap-out chevrons included (left/right/double).
• Universal 120/277 VAC input with status LED & push-to-test; solid-state transfer and two-rate charging on EM models.
• EM versions: 1.2 V Ni-Cd pack delivers 90-minute emergency runtime (typical full recharge ~24 h).
• EZ-snap canopy for top or end mount and a universal backplate for wall mount—no special tools required.
• Slim, 5 VA flame-retardant thermoplastic housing (white or black) for compact installations.
• Compliance ready: NFPA 101, NEC, OSHA; CEC Title 20 efficient.
• Warranty: 5-year electronics/housing; battery 5-year prorated.

Applications & Design Notes

Use ETXTEU wherever ceiling clearance or wall depth is limited and you need a fast, code-compliant install: tenant corridors, retail suites, schools, light healthcare, and amenity areas. The universal canopy supports ceiling (top) or flag (end) mounting, while the slim housing keeps the sign close to the surface for a polished finish. To support wayfinding, set a floor-wide standard for legend color (red or green), coordinate chevron arrowing with the approved egress route during rough-in, and keep mounting heights consistent along the run for clean sightlines. In design-sensitive interiors, pair ETXTEU with edge-lit signs at feature entries to balance aesthetics and budget.

• AC-only vs EM: Use EM where a 90-minute battery is required; choose AC-only with 2C-120 / 2C-277 dual-circuit options when the building provides dedicated emergency power.
• Single vs double-face: Select double-face for corridors with traffic from both directions (intersections, lobby approaches); otherwise, single-face reduces visual weight.
• Retrofit speed: Universal backplate knockouts align with common J-box patterns; canopy hardware snaps on without special tools for quick turnovers.

• Field-selectable RED legend or GREEN legend to match building standards or AHJ preferences.

Electrical

• Universal 120/277 VAC input with bi-color indicator (green = normal; red = service) and push-to-test.
• EM battery: 1.2 V Ni-Cd, 90-minute emergency runtime; ~24 hour typical recharge after full test.
• AC-only with 2C-120 / 2C-277 supports normal + emergency circuits without battery (where specified by design).

Mounting

• Top / End: EZ-snap canopy for ceiling or flag mounting to standard J-boxes.
• Wall: Universal backplate knockouts for surface installation; maintain level for clean sightlines.

Housing

• Injection-molded thermoplastic, 5 VA flame-retardant; white or black finish.
• Slim body minimizes projection into corridors and elevator lobbies.

Options

• SDT — self-diagnostic testing (monthly / biannual / annual).
• 2C-120 / 2C-277 — dual-circuit AC operation (battery-free) for centralized emergency power.
• TP — tamper-resistant hardware kit for vandal-prone corridors.

Certifications / Warranty

• UL 924 listed for damp locations (0–50 °C).
• Meets NFPA 101, NEC, OSHA; CEC Title 20 compliant.
• 5-year warranty on housing & electronics; battery 5-year prorated (EM models).

Dimensions

• See the spec sheet drawings for bezel width, face height, and canopy footprint.

Install & Commissioning Tips

• Legend standardization: Keep RED or GREEN consistent per floor/wing; note the standard on plan submittals to avoid mixed inventory.
• Arrowing: Apply chevrons during rough-in to reflect the approved path; verify with the AHJ pre-inspection when possible.
• AC-only dual-circuit: Where emergency power is centralized, consider 2C-120/2C-277 to eliminate batteries and simplify service.
• EM testing: For battery models, allow ~24 h to recharge after the initial install test; log monthly function and annual 90-minute tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set the ETXTEU as single or double-face on site?

Yes. It ships single-face with the second face included; you can convert to double-face during installation. Chevrons are field-applied.

Is the legend color fixed at order?

No—this model is field-selectable. Choose RED or GREEN during install to match your floor standard.

What’s the difference between EM and AC-only models?

EM models include a Ni-Cd battery that provides 90 minutes of illumination. AC-only models (often with 2C-120/2C-277) use building emergency power and do not have a battery.

Does ETXTEU support automated testing?

Yes—specify the SDT self-diagnostic option to automate monthly, biannual, and annual tests with indicator reporting.

Where should I use double-face signs?

At corridor intersections or in lobbies where occupants approach from both directions. Otherwise, single-face reduces visual weight.
