RESCLITE LED LUMINAIRES SHOW THE WAY

20 February 2009

A new family of LED emergency lighting luminaires from Zumtobel offer high performance from compact, standalone units. The Zumtobel RESCLITE is available in three complementary versions – an anti-panic light, an escape route illuminator and a spotlight for higher intensity emergency lighting in critical areas.

Each of these products enjoy the low-energy, reliability and zero maintenance benefits of latest generation LED technology, while the high power 2.7W LED mean that fewer units are needed to meet mandatory emergency lighting requirements. Self contained and central power supply versions are available in powder-coated white or metallic aluminium finishes.

The RESCLITE ANTI PANIC luminaire is designed to provide lighting continuity in the case of a power outage or emergency situation and can be spaced up to 13m apart.

In its ESCAPE variant, the RESCLITE provides escape route lighting with a minimum luminance of 1 lux, as required by EN 1838. It creates a strip beam pattern using a combination of a special reflector and polycarbonate lenses and can be spaced in intervals of up to 22m. The self contained nimh battery supply in each unit allows for 3 hours of operating time, with the LED control software ensuring no drop off in output throughout its service life.

Completing the RESCLITE family, the LED SPOT provides a minimum of 5 lux illumination where extra lighting is required in danger areas or to highlight the location of fire-fighting and first-aid equipment. The self contained battery gives up to 3 hours of operating time.

When connected to a central power supply the RESCLITE units can be monitored and configured using Zumtobel’s DALI lighting controls. Both networked and stand-alone versions incorporate hard-programmed self-test routines, with operational status displayed using a two-colour LED indicator.
