In choosing the right AC system to support emergency lighting it is important to consider the following questions:
Overload performance
Is the system able to start the full load without the mains supply present. How does the system perform in a total power failure (ie is the system able to start the load without the bypass supply being available)?
Repeat duty
CSA141-10 requires a central battery system to fully recharge within 24 hours. Is the charger able to recharge the batteries quickly (80% in 14 hours or 100% after 24 hours)?
Overload performance
An emergency lighting load will impose large in-rush currents when starting lamps from cold. However, UPS systems are often designed to shut down at only 125% overload and revert to the incoming supply. During a total power failure situation, this could result in total failure of the emergency lighting system. Furthermore, a UPS may fail to clear a breaker on a lighting circuit, meaning that a single short circuit fault could result in loss of the entire emergency lighting supply.
Maintenance
Is the system easy to service and maintain? Is the system designed in a modular format, or would the failure of even a minor component require the whole system to be shut down and stripped for repair?.

SERIES HIGHLIGHTS
Performance
The EMEX-Power Systems work with lighting loads to provide full light output for minimum 30 min. It is designed to support incandescent, uorescent and LED loads. It will power these loads at cold starts for all normally off circuits or normally on circuits.
Applications
EMEX-Power Systems can be used in almost every type of building, especially in architecturally sensitive applications or when maintenance costs and testing of individual unit equipment becomes signicant. Our systems are designed to work with power factor corrected as well as the most recent T5 and T5-HO electronic ballasts.
FEATURES
Self-Diagnostic/Self-Testing
Programmable monthly and annual self-testing. Proven self-diagnostic with information stored in separate memory logs for Test, Event and Alarm. Microprocessor monitoring and control.
BENEFITS
Compliance with NFPA101
The self-testing meets the requirements of NFPA and UL. User programmable time of testing. Test results, events or alarms can be downloaded from history logs. Load monitoring. Reduced testing/service time.
Less air-conditioning
Reduced costs for air-conditioning required to ensure the optimum operating temperature when compared with equivalent systems that dissipate much more heat. Higher reliability of fans and electronic components.
Versatile Installation
Modular design, easy front access freestanding cabinets, fasten together when more than one cabinet is required. Optional seismic kit available. All wiring provided is pre-cut and terminated, along with the necessary hardware for proper installation.
Easy to install
Quick installation and connection through exible cable entries and fast access terminal blocks. Low MTTR (<30 min.) due to modular design, quick disconnect means and frontal access.
Complete Protection
Battery circuit breakers are standard. Modular standard systems offer overload capacity, short-circuit protection, current- limiting, low-battery disconnect and brownout protection as standard.
Thermal Performance
Bonded oversized heat sinks for maximum thermal performance. Cooling fans are energized only in inverter and recharge modes.
Increased MTBF
Increased reliability and reduced preventative maintenance. No air lters needed.
Easy maintenance
Diagnostics, troubleshooting, preventative maintenance and service are made easier by using the front panel display or the history logs.

System Testing
EMEX Central Battery Systems provide manual and automatic test functions. Manual test can be activated any time using the test key provided on the control panel. Manual testing will do a programmable fixed test time and can be aborted any time by pushing again on the test key. Automatic test and diagnostic is done following an annual sequence. Every month a quick diagnostic test of 2 minutes is performed. At the 6 month mark, a 1/3 timed discharge test is done, and at the 12 month, a full discharge, down to LVD is performed. Pass/Fail and discharge time are registered in the event log. Test time and date is programmed using the Service Menu.
