Removal instructions

1.  Before removing the installed fitting, de-energise and lock off the supply circuit. 

Note:

 There may be 2 actives present, 

ensure all power is isolated before proceeding.

2.  Unplug mains 3 pin cord from the power point.
3.  Unscrew 2 screws on the face plate and unclip lanyard cables. Unplug LED and test switch from the face plate.
4.  Remove the diffuser assembly, take care not to scratch the diffuser’s vinyl.
5.  Partially undo phillips head screw at 1 end of the gear tray and slide the tray away to clear the screw head.
6.  Pull gear tray outwards until the tongue at the other end of the tray clears the housing slot.
7.  Unplug mains cable connector, battery plug from the PCA and remove the gear tray.
8.  Unscrew locking tab screws, pull the locking tabs inward the housing and remove them.
9.  Fold all side tabs up right until the housing is clear of the ceiling cut out and remove the fitting.

Note:

 When the fitting is reconnected to the supply, it will need time to recharge its battery for 24 hours before it will be 

capable of a full length discharge again.

Testing precautions

Once the fitting is permanently connected to the mains supply, a commissioning discharge test as required in    
AS/NZS2293.2 must be carried out. You will need to allow 24 hours for the battery to fully charge prior to conducting 
this test, presently (at the time of writing), the standard requires that fittings operate in emergency mode for a period not 
less than 2 hours for their commissioning test and for not less than 90 minutes thereafter (it is required that 6 monthly 
discharge tests be carried out). You will need to keep the records for the commissioning test and enter them into the 
building emergency services logbook or via other recording methods as allowed by AS/NZ2293.2.

Construction sites

Continuously switching of the mains power supply that is connected to emergency light fittings during the construction 
phase of an installation will cause these fittings to discharge and charge their batteries many times over a short period; 
this can shorten the life of the battery and will also result in shortened emergency lamp life. ABB does not recommend 
such practices and may not honour the warranty on batteries when they are subjected to such harsh operating 
conditions. Emergency light fittings are designed to be discharge tested once every 6 months as per AS/NZS2293.2, 
subjecting the product to repeated discharge or charge cycles is regarded as an abuse of the fittings.

Trouble shooting guide

Nexus LX (data cable system)

The Nexus

®

 range of emergency light fitting are designed to be connected together into a special communication network 

over a Level 4 (or higher) high speed, single twisted pair data cable. The Nexus user and technical guide describes all 
you need to know to successfully install a Nexus project. Ask for it from your supervisor, from your employer or from your 
nearest ABB product supplier. The network cabling of the building must be installed as per the procedure detailed in the 
Nexus user and technical guide. No mains or mains carrying cables are to be connected to the data terminals or cables.

Nexus RF (wireless system)

The Nexus RF range of light fittings are designed to communicate via a proprietary RF network, however the electrical 
installation of the fittings is identical to that of a standard non-monitored fitting.
