INSTALLATION

1.  De-energize the circuit at the junction box (J-box) 

where the emergency light is to be installed.

2.  Open the emergency light by inserting a fl at screw-

driver in the two slots on the side of the unit, then 
turning to separate housing from the backplate.

3.  To mount to a junction box - Drill out the appropriate 

mounting pattern and the wire pass hole in the back-
plate and the back gasket to fi t the J-box being used.

4.  To mount to conduit – Unscrew the ½” NPT plug locat-

ed at the top of the fi xture and screw in the user-sup-
plied conduit hub.

5.  Once the backplate is secured, the housing can be 

held in place during installation with the help of the two 
plastic strips (see Fig. 1 next page).

6.  Connect the incoming wires to the SELW29SD power 

supply wires using the wire nuts provided. Connect the 
white wire to neutral. If using 120V, connect the black 
wire to the hot lead. If using 277V, connect the orange 
wire to the hot lead. Cap the unused lead. Secure the 
emergency light to the wall and/or junction box using 
installer supplied hardware.

7.  Complete the battery connection and snap the cover 

onto the backplate.

8.  Energize AC supply. The test button should illuminate, 

and LED heads will illuminate briefl y when the test 
button is pushed.

9.  Adjust the heads as needed. The SELW29SD lenses 

utilize a highly directional beam, and the lenses can be 
rotated to adjust the beams to the front or sides of the 
fi xture (see Fig. 2 next page).
