Overview
The EL-75W steel emergency light is used extensively in the commercial and industrial sectors. They have two 75-watt lamps that produce 6 to 10 times the illumination of conventional emergency lighting fixtures.
These versatile luminaries are the fixture of choice for industry everywhere. They are also one of the few emergency lights approved in Chicago and New York City businesses.
Features
- Dual 75-watt halogen lamp heads provide superior lighting
- Can be fitted with higher-output wattages
- Rugged 20-guage steel construcxtion
- Push-button diagnostic switch
- Fully compliant
- 5-Year warranty
Application
The EL-75W can mount to any j-box or wall surface using NPS conduits using a universal keyhole pattern on the backside. These are the perfect fixture for universities, dormitories, factories and aircraft hangars.
External Specifications
Each unit comes standard with a pure white powder-coated finish, which also protects the 20-gauge steel housing from rust and corrosion. The dual 75-watt Par-style lamp heads can be turned in any direction to supply light to the path of egress and other vital equipment. They are built with impact-resistant thermoplastic.
Internal Specification
These emergency lighting fixtures come with two 75 watt halogen bulbs which produce more than 650 lumens. Other bulb wattages can be exchanged by swapping out the battery and circuitry. Circuit boards are easily accessed via a hinged steel access panel.
When a break in AC power is detected, emergency power is supplied to the unit by a 12-volt, 150-watt sealed lead acid (SLA) battery backup. It will completely charge in less than 24 hours and operate in temperatures as high as 122°F.

Options
To purchase these options, please email us or call 800-607-5355.
Self-Test - self diagnostic eliminates the need for manual monthly/yearly maintenance. An alarm will tell you if any component loses functionality.
Time-Delay - ideal for companies using fluorescent and HID lights in their general lighting. This option will keep the emergency light on for an additional 15 minutes after power is restored, allowing HID lights to reach their full intensity.
Nickel Cadmium Battery - NiCad battery backups weigh less and are safer than sealed lead acid cells. They last 5-7 years and are easier to replace.
