(120 or 277 volts).
4. When installing the emergency ballast, make sure all connections are in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and any local regulations.
5. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect the AC input and the inverter connector before
servicing.
6. This product is for use with indoor fixtures except air handling heated air outlets, and wet, damp, or
hazardous location fixtures.
7. Do not attempt to service the battery. The emergency ballast uses a sealed, no–maintenance battery.
Contact the manufacturer for information on replacements.
8. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe
condition.
9. Do not install near gas or electric heaters.
10. Servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.
11. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.

INSTALLATION
WARNINGS: 1. TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE EMERGENCY BALLAST, JOIN THE BATTERY CONNECTOR
BEFORE SUPPLYING AC POWER TO THE EMERGENCY BALLAST.
2. TO PREVENT HIGH VOLTAGE FROM BEING PRESENT ON OUTPUT LEADS (YELLOW AND
RED), DO NOT JOIN INVERTER CONNECTOR UNTIL AC POWER IS SUPPLIED TO THE
EMERGENCY BALLAST.
NOTE: MAKE SURE THAT THE NECESSARY BRANCH CIRCUIT WIRING IS AVAILABLE. AN
UNSWITCHED SOURCE OF POWER IS REQUIRED. THE EMERGENCY BALLAST MUST
BE FED FROM THE SAME BRANCH CIRCUIT AS THE AC BALLAST.
1. Select the appropriate wiring diagram to connect the emergency ballast to the AC ballast and lamp.
2. Refer to Diagram to install indicator light. The indicator light must be positioned so that it will be visible after
the fixture is installed.
NOTE: A switch box is not supplied.
3. See Diagram A showing basic switched and unswitched fixture connections.
4. See back page for more detailed wiring schematics. The emergency ballast can be used with one- or two-lamp
fixtures, however, it operates one lamp in the emergency mode.
5. Cut fixture wire between the lamp holder and AC ballasts and connect the blue emergency ballast wire to the
AC ballast and the yellow wire to the lamp holder.
6. On switched fixtures, an additional unswitched hot (120 or 277 VAC) wire must be run to the junction box and
connected to the emergency ballast.
7. The emergency ballast must be connected to an unswitched 120 or 277 VAC power source. Do not connect to
other voltages. After fixture installation is complete:
A. Join the battery connector.
B. Supply AC power to the emergency ballast.
C. Join inverter connector
8. For short-term testing of the emergency function, the battery must be charged for at least 30 minutes. The
emergency ballast must be charged for at least 24 hours before conducting a long-term test.
9. In a readily visible location, attach the label "CAUTION - This Unit Has More Than One Power Supply
Connection Point. To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The Branch Circuit-Breakers Or
Fuses And Emergency Power Supplies Before Servicing."

OPERATION
When AC power is applied, the charging indicator light is illuminated, indicating that the battery is being
charged. When power fails, the emergency ballast automatically provides at least 90 minutes of emergency lighting.
MAINTENANCE
Although no routine maintenance is required to keep the emergency ballast functional, it should be checked
periodically to ensure that it is working. The following schedule is recommended:
1. Visually inspect the charging indicator light monthly. It should be illuminated.
2. Test operation of the circuit at 30–day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds. The lamp
should operate.
3. Conduct a 90–minute discharge test once a year. The lamp should operate for at least
90 minutes.
Refer any servicing indicated by these checks to qualified personnel.
