Emergency Lighting Power Inverters

Top 10 Emergency Lighting Panel Missteps

  • Failing to perform routine maintenance and testing can lead to undetected issues that prevent the ELPs from functioning properly during an emergency.

  • Overlooking the health and charging status of batteries can result in insufficient backup power when needed.

  • Incorrect installation, whether due to lack of expertise or non-adherence to manufacturer’s guidelines, can compromise the system's performance.

  • Not adhering to local, state, or federal regulations and standards can result in non-compliance issues and compromise safety.

  • Failing to train maintenance personnel on the proper operation and troubleshooting of ELPIs can delay resolution of issues.

  • Overloading the inverter beyond its capacity can cause failure or inadequate power supply to emergency lighting fixtures.

  • Not upgrading or modernizing outdated systems can lead to decreased reliability and compatibility issues with newer lighting technologies.

  • Lack of proper documentation of maintenance, testing, and repairs can hinder troubleshooting and compliance verification.

  • Not having essential spare parts on hand can increase downtime during a system failure.

  • Overlooking or ignoring alarm signals from the ELPI system can result in unnoticed issues that may prevent the system from functioning during an emergency.

Protect, Maximize, and Extend the Life of Your Central Lighting Inverter

  • • Emergency lighting events are unpredictable.

    • Utility grid outages are infrequent and random, making them hard to prepare for.

    • During outages, emergency lights need 90 minutes of consistent power for safe building evacuation and emergency staff movement.

    • Power should be immediate, not relying on delayed sources like generators.

    • Without a working central lighting inverter, building use and business operations are jeopardized.

    • Automatic testing of Central Lighting Inverters is more reliable than manual checks.

  • • While batteries provide dependable backup power, regular maintenance ensures their peak performance.

    • Proper battery charging and monitoring guarantee inverter reliability, especially in emergencies. Undercharged batteries are a leading cause of inverter failure.

    • Inverters have a finite lifespan and need timely replacements for best performance.

    • Continuous utility power monitoring by inverters exposes them to potential power quality issues, risking undetected damage and performance loss.

    • Central lighting inverters, often overlooked since they're installed during construction, are vital. Neglect becomes evident when a forgotten inverter fails during need.

    • Well-maintained equipment lasts longer.

  • • Factory-trained professionals visit every 6 months for performance checks.

    • Regular cleaning of battery connections prevents reduced battery life.

    • Clearing dust from electronics aids heat dissipation and serviceability.

    • Secure wire connections in the electronics cabinet reduce malfunctions.

    • Log reviews highlight irregularities.

    • Inverter load tests, as mandated by UL 924 and NFPA 111, confirm emergency lighting standards.

    • Documented battery and output measurements track performance and health.

    • A comprehensive maintenance report integrates into the facility's plan.

    • Optional thermal imaging identifies hidden issues.

    Additional perks:

    • Priority emergency response.

    • Discounts on parts, labor, and replacement batteries.

    • Round-the-clock technical support.

Emergency Lighting

In emergencies, every second is crucial. Clear vision and quick navigation can be life-saving, making well-maintained emergency lighting and exit signs vital. Their effectiveness relies on regular inspections and upkeep.

  • Like any other electrical equipment, emergency lighting and exit signs are susceptible to malfunctions, wear and tear, and even complete failure. Regular checks ensure that all components are working as intended, so when an emergency does occur, the systems are reliable.

  • Building codes and safety regulations mandate the installation and regular maintenance of emergency lighting and exit signs. Failure to comply can result in heavy fines, legal repercussions, and even imprisonment in some cases. More importantly, neglecting these safety measures can make building owners liable for any harm that comes to occupants due to inadequate emergency preparedness.

  • For businesses and public facilities, the safety of visitors and employees is a significant concern. Properly maintained emergency systems can enhance the public's trust and a company’s reputation, indicating a commitment to safety and well-being. On the other hand, failure in emergency systems can severely damage public perception and trust.

  • Well-maintained lighting systems and clearly visible exit signs facilitate quicker evacuation and easier access for emergency responders. This can not only minimize injury but also contain the situation more effectively, be it a fire, a gas leak, or any other emergency.

  • Though regular checks and maintenance involve some costs, these are negligible compared to the costs associated with an emergency exacerbated by failed lighting or unclear exit routes. These can include legal costs, medical bills, property damage, and even the incalculable cost of human life.
