Emergency Lights - LED

Cover your entire emergency lights lineup with code-ready fixtures built for real-world use: recessed emergency lights, self-testing emergency lights, wet-location emergency lights, and die-cast aluminum emergency lights. All models are UL 924 compliant for egress in offices, warehouses, corridors, stairwells, and retail spaces.

UL 924 Listed 90-Min Runtime Remote-Capable Wet Location Recessed Options Meets NFPA 101
Buyers Guide Tips

What to Look for in Emergency Lights

  • UL 924 & runtime: Minimum 90-minute emergency operation with compliant photometrics.
  • Battery chemistry: Ni-Cd, NiMH, or lithium chosen for recharge time, temperature range, and lifecycle.
  • Remote capacity: Ability to power additional remote heads from one unit (confirm watts/runtime).
  • Mounting & power: Universal wall/ceiling/end mounting; dual 120/277 VAC input and solid-state charger.
  • Optics & spacing: Adjustable heads and lumen package to meet corridor spacing and foot-candle targets.
  • Environment rating: Specify damp/wet or enclosure (NEMA/IP) where spray, dust, or wash-down is present.
  • Diagnostics: Self-testing option to automate monthly/annual checks and simplify inspections.

Our LED emergency lights pair high-output diodes with maintenance-free batteries (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, or lithium) for reliable runtime and low upkeep—no bulky SLA packs. Universal wall/ceiling/end mounts and field-adjustable optics simplify aiming along paths of egress.

What is emergency lighting? A life-safety system that activates during a power loss to illuminate corridors, stairwells, and exits—via internal batteries, remote heads, or a central inverter.

Spec Snapshot

  • Compliance: UL 924 listed with a minimum 90-minute runtime; supports NFPA 101 egress requirements. Coordinate final interpretation with your AHJ.
  • Battery & Electronics: Maintenance-free Ni-Cd / Ni-MH / lithium packs; solid-state charger/automatic transfer with low-voltage disconnect, AC lockout, brownout detection, push-to-test, and status LED.
  • Power: Dual-voltage 120/277 VAC input. Confirm wire entries/knockouts and conduit path for sealed installs and clean cable management.
  • Optics & Output: High-efficacy LED heads with adjustable aim; review manufacturer photometrics (lumens/beam) to meet corridor spacing at the planned mounting height.
  • Mounting: Universal wall/ceiling/end backplates; recessed options available—see recessed emergency lights.
  • Environment & Ratings: Specify wet-location emergency lights or NEMA/IP enclosures for spray/exterior exposure; consider cold-weather packages for low ambient temperatures.
  • Remote Capability: Select remote-capable emergency lights can power remote heads—verify available remote wattage and resulting runtime on the cut sheet.
  • Diagnostics: Self-testing emergency lights automate monthly 30-second and annual 90-minute tests and report faults for quick inspections.
  • Construction: Choose lightweight thermoplastic or die-cast aluminum emergency lights for enhanced impact/corrosion resistance in high-traffic areas.
  • Special Applications: For classified areas, specify hazardous-location emergency lights; for combined signage/lighting, see exit sign & emergency light combos.

Emergency Lights Frequently Asked Questions

What types of emergency lighting fixtures do I need?

Most facilities need wall-mounted units, remote heads, and damp/wet-location fixtures depending on the layout and local code requirements. Always consult your fire marshal or building inspector.

How long do emergency lights operate during a blackout?

All UL 924 emergency lights provide a minimum of 90 minutes of runtime during power outages, as required by NFPA 101 and OSHA life safety codes.

How often should I inspect emergency lighting systems?

Test monthly for 30 seconds and conduct a full 90-minute test annually. Self-testing emergency lights can automate both checks and reduce inspection labor.

What environments require vandal-resistant emergency lights?

Use vandal-resistant emergency lights in locations subject to impact or abuse—such as schools, correctional facilities, transit stations, and gyms.

Do I need hazardous-location rated emergency lights?

Yes—if your facility contains flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust. Browse our hazardous-location emergency lights for Class I Division 2 compliance.

Can I add wire guards to existing emergency lights?

Yes. We offer universal wire guards that retrofit most standard emergency light housings to protect against vandalism or accidental impact.

Are these lights activated by motion?

No. Emergency lights activate automatically during power failures or when connected to a fire alarm system. For motion-activated lighting, browse our Wall Pack Lights.
