Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage and wattage options are available?

The RS Series offers 6 V, 12 V, or 24 V models with output capacities from 120 W to 360 W. Choose based on lamp load and remote capacity needs.

Can I install lamp heads directly on the cabinet?

Yes. Up to three lamp heads can be mounted directly to the cabinet using side knockouts. Additional capacity may be used for remote heads.

What’s the difference between battery types?

Lead-calcium batteries are standard and cost-effective. Optional Ni-Cd batteries offer longer life, improved cold-temperature performance, and lighter weight.

Yes. After cabinet heads are installed, remaining battery capacity can power remote lamps such as MIST heads or RL series remotes.

Does it support self-diagnostics?

Yes. Add the G2 Guardian diagnostics option for automated monthly and annual system tests.
