Remote-Capable Thermoplastic LED Exit Sign - 3.0 W Remote Output, Red/Green Legend, UL 924
The CEXTEU Remote-Capable LED Exit Sign provides code-legible red or green EXIT signage in a compact thermoplastic housing with a 3.0 W remote-head output. It is designed for indoor commercial egress routes where the sign needs to mark the exit path and power a nearby compatible remote head for a small dark spot, doorway, vestibule, corridor turn, or stair landing.
Standard models support 120/277 V input and a 3.6 V Ni-Cd battery for 90-minute emergency operation. Choose red, green, or universal red/green legend options; white or black housing; optional SDT self diagnostics; or optional SPV 120/230 V special-voltage input. For related choices, compare remote-capable exit signs and compatible remote heads.

Applications & Design Notes
Use CEXTEU for indoor commercial egress routes that need a compact UL 924 exit sign with 90-minute battery backup and a small remote-head budget. Good fits include elevator lobbies, intersecting corridors, small vestibules, doorway areas, and stair landings where a nearby remote head can cover a limited dark spot.
- Best fit: indoor and damp-location commercial exit signage with optional nearby remote-head coverage.
- Avoid using as a wet-location, outdoor, vandal-resistant, or steel-exit-sign substitute.
- Remote output is limited to 3.0 W total; sum connected head wattage and account for voltage drop.
Remote Output Planning
The 3.0 W remote output is for short, low-wattage remote-head extensions near the sign, not for replacing a high-capacity emergency lighting unit. Keep the connected load at or below the rated output and confirm final placement with the building plans and local code official.
- Choose this model when a full exit/emergency combo would be visually or electrically excessive.
- Use shorter conductor runs and appropriate wire gauge to control voltage drop.
- For longer remote runs or more head wattage, compare higher-output remote-capable products.
Specifications (Overview)
- Legend: red, green, or universal red/green EXIT; single-face with field conversion to double-face; snap-out chevrons.

- White or black finish options coordinate with common interior palettes.
- Thermoplastic construction is lightweight and corrosion resistant for standard indoor commercial use.
Options
- SDT: self-testing diagnostics for automated maintenance checks.
- SPV 120/230 V: special-voltage input for facilities using 230 V service.
- Universal red/green variants support field-selectable legend requirements.

Comparison Notes
Choose CEXTEU for a budget-conscious thermoplastic remote-capable exit sign with a 3.0 W remote output. Choose a higher-output remote-capable exit sign when the remote heads need more wattage, a combo unit when the fixture itself must include heads, or steel/Chicago-approved models when the project requires metal construction or jurisdiction-specific design.
Compliance notes
- Confirm final fixture placement, remote-head load, runtime, and local code approval for the project.
- Keep connected remote heads within the 3.0 W output rating and follow the manufacturer wiring instructions.
- This thermoplastic model is damp-location rated for indoor use; do not substitute it for a wet-location or outdoor exit sign.
Frequently asked questions
What does remote-capable mean for the CEXTEU exit sign?
Remote-capable means the sign can power compatible external remote heads from its internal emergency battery system. For CEXTEU, the available remote-head budget is 3.0 W total.
How many remote heads can I connect to the 3.0 W output?
Add the rated wattage of each compatible remote head and keep the total at or below 3.0 W. A single low-wattage remote head or two very low-wattage heads may fit, but the exact count depends on the head wattage and voltage-drop conditions.
Is this a UL 924 red or green LED exit sign?
Yes. The CEXTEU series is a UL 924 LED exit sign with red, green, and universal red/green legend variants. Match the legend color to building plans, existing signage, and local code requirements.
Does this remote-capable exit sign include battery backup?
Yes. It uses a 3.6 V Ni-Cd battery for 90-minute emergency operation, with an automatic charger and approximately 24-hour recharge.
Can the universal red/green model be selected in the field?
Universal red/green variants are intended for projects where final legend color may need field selection. Confirm the required EXIT color with building plans and the local code official before installation.
When should I select SDT self diagnostics or SPV 120/230 V?
Select SDT when the facility wants automated test cycles and status indication for maintenance routines. Select SPV 120/230 V when the project uses 230 V service and needs a listed special-voltage configuration.
Is CEXTEU suitable for outdoor or wet-location projects?
No. This is an indoor/damp-location thermoplastic exit sign. For outdoor, washdown, or exposed applications, choose a wet-location or NEMA-rated exit sign instead.
