Overview
Our vandal proof emergency lights are some of the best luminaries in areas where tampering and vandalism are a constant threat to electrical equipment. Your emergency lighting system will last close to a decade if properly maintained, so spending a few bucks more on a vandal proof unit makes a lot of sense.
These lights are built to take a beating in areas of your building that can't be monitored closely.

Internal Specification
Inside the vandal proof emergency light's steel housing is the circuit board, transformer and battery backup system. A steel access panel allows effortless access to all internal components. Can take a 6v or 12v sealed lead acid battery, or can connect to a remote power source via magnum terminals.

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.
Housing Color - custom finishes available; expect a longer delivery time.
Side-Mounted Lamps - make sure to specify.
Voltmeter - visual display of the voltage condition/battery level.
Anmeter - provides a visual display of the power being consumed by the light.
Cord Set - eliminates the need to wire expensive conduits and j-boxes, so long as a 120v AC outlet is close to the luminary.
