Products & Applications Emergency Lighting Energy Conservation Lighting Inverters Battery Pack Eliminators Emergency Power Controls Transfer Switches Load Shedding Switching & Dimming Controls To our specifying engineers and customers, Load Shedding & Low Voltage Controls Overview What is load shedding? pg 1 - 2 In 1991, LVS was founded to manufacture speciality low voltage switching controls and occupancy Model RTS-24 Load Shedding for demand response & plug loads pg 3 sensors. Since that time, LVS has become the leader in UL924 emergency lighting controls, and Model RTS-120/277 Load Shedding for demand response & plug loads pg 4 Model RTS-0-10V Load shedding for 0-10V dimmable loads pg 5 earned several unique patents related to emergency lighting and automatic testing. Thanks to you, we have continued to grow and have expanded our product line to include lighting inverters. We are excited to share our latest addition, innovative load shedding controls for a wide range of applications. Model TR-100 Low Voltage Power Supply 250mA pg 6 Model SP-1 Heavy Duty 30A Momentary Input Switch Pak pg 6 Model CR-1-120 Closet and Cabinet Relay used with magnetic switches pg 7-8 Our experience was first gained as an electrical contracting firm specializing in large and complex security and fire alarm systems. In 1971, the difficulty we encountered in finding quality ultrasonic and infrared motion equipment prompted our decision to enter the security equipment manufacturing UL924 Emergency Lighting Inverters field under the name UNISEC. UNISEC equipment was sold throughout the Americas, Europe, and Asia for over twenty years. We subsequently founded UNENCO to apply this technology to energy Overview Reasons to use Inverters instead of battery packs pg 9-10 conservation and quickly became a recognized pioneer in this field.

A patent pending feature disconnects or dims lighting to deliver energy savings when they are required most. Demand Response: RTS can accept demand response signals and automatically disconnect any light fixture, or dim 0-10V light fixtures by 25 or 50%. Plug Load/Receptacle Control: RTS can connect to low voltage occupancy sensors to automatically switch receptacles on/off based on occupancy. Emergency Lighting: RTS can detect the loss of utility power and dim 0-10V light fixtures connected to an emergency inverter system by 25-50%. The RTS can be mounted in any junction box or most light fixtures by snapping into a 1/2” Knockout (K.O.) and is economically justified for any project. Load Shedding Signal RTS Load Shedding Circuit 24V or 120V or 277V Power Source LOAD RTS allows load to operate normally until load shedding signal changes position, then load is disconnected or dimmed, depending on model. All RTS models are UL listed and can be used in a variety of applications. Please consult pages 3-5 for additional information. Contact LVS for special application guidance or questions.

When regular power is interrupted, RRU-1 contact automatically closes and “shunts” around wall switch, turning emergency load on regardless of switch position. RRU Fire Ceiling Installation Model RRU-2 Wiring : 0-10V Bypass (typical) Mounts in 4-11/16” Junction Box with blank cover UL94V-0 Flame Rating Shipping Weight: 8 oz Temperature: 32˚F - 140˚F | Color : Black Size (with mounting ears): 3-3/4”(L) x 1-3/4”(W) x 1-1/2”(H) 21 UL ® Model Numbers: RRU-VOLT : 10A N/O+N/C (Form C) Output RRU-1-VOLT : 20A N/C Output RRU-2-VOLT : 20A N/O Output VOLT is sensing input voltage, 120V or 277V Electrical Specifications - Wireless lighting control bypass - Control panel override - Load Shedding - Multiple phase sensing The RRU provides a dry contact output based on line voltage sensing input. The RRU series of UL924 listed emergency shunt relays offers flexible bypass options for a wide range of applications: UL ® LISTED EMERGENCY LIGHTING EQUIPMENT 73PK When regular power is available, RRU-2 contact is closed and emergency load is controlled by dimmer. When regular power is interrupted, RRU-2 contact automatically opens and forces emergency load to full brightness, regardless of dimmer position. RRU’s can also be mounted in plenum (when tiles are removable), in a light fixture or behind a wall switch. RRU-2 NOTE: A EPC-1 or EPC-A-1 is typically required to bypass the high voltage switching controls (such as wall switch or occupancy sensor). Alternatively, an EPC-1-D or EPC-D-F can be specified, which includes bypasses for both high voltage and low voltage. 22 Other UL924 Lighting Controls Surface Mount EPC-D-F-S As the industry leader in UL924 lighting controls, LVS has developed an extensive offering of UL924 listed products for unique applications. LVS has also built a comprehensive library of special application drawings and solutions. Below are some popular applications, and many more are available at www.lvscontrols.com Please contact us for assistance finding the best solution for your special applications. The EPC-D-F-S offers an compact, surface mount package for dimming applications. Electrically similar to the EPC-D-F. The EPC-D-F-S is also popular for certain non-lighting loads, such as refrigerator back up during a utility power interruption. Fire Alarm Interface Size: 5-1/8” x 5-1/8” x 2-1/4” Load Rating: 20A Wiring (see EPC-D-F page 19-20) Some jurisdictions require emergency lighting to illuminate during a fire alarm or other specified conditions. Some EPC products, such as EPC-1-RT, can connect directly to a dry contact in a fire alarm or security panel to trigger emergency operation. All EPC and CEPS products can be used with a LVS Fire Alarm Interface (FAI-100) to meet these requirements. Fixture Mount EPC-A The Fixture Mount EPC-A is ideal for single fixture bypass applications and can be mounted in most ballast channels. Includes automatic diagnostic feature and utility power indicator LED. Electrically similar to EPC-A-1. Special Applications Different Normal / Emergency Voltages Fixture Mount Size: 5” x 1.15” x 1.15” Load Rating: 3A Wiring (see EPC-A-1 page 17-18) Normal and Emergency power systems are often the same voltage, typically 120V or 277V, but in some retrofit applications, the emergency voltage and normal voltage are different. This scenario is most often seen in healthcare applications. LVS dual voltage products, such as the EPC-1 and EPC-A-1, can handle different voltages with no special wiring required. Other products, such as the EPC-D-F, will require special interfaces to safely handle this application. Please contact LVS for further information. Panel Mount EPC Egress Lighting The Panel Mount EPC offers terminal blocks and enclosure mounting feet. This unit is well suited to multiple zone applications and use with relay panels or other enclosures. Non-emergency egress lighting is a growing field with its own set of specific legal requirements. A common requirement is that egress lighting illuminate in a fail-safe manner during specified conditions (such as fire alarm), bypassing occupancy-based lighting controls, or other equipment. LVS UL924 controls are approved and tested for fail safe operation, making them uniquely suited for this applicatinon. Load Rating: 20A Wiring (see EPC-1 page 8) Retrofit applications and low voltage sensing Custom Orders For projects of any size, LVS will work to find solutions that meet your requirements. For large projects or OEM’s, custom designs for special voltages (such as 220V, 50Hz), custom time delays, and more are available, many with UL924 listing from previous projects. In retrofit applications, normal sensing circuits are sometimes not available to trigger emergency operation. LVS offers low voltage sensing UL924 listed controls (Model RTS-24 and others) which can detect the loss of utility power through a low voltage sense line. Low voltage sense wiring is ideal for retrofit applications and can save substantial material and labor.
