INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Before installing, make certain the A.C. power is off and the ICE-80 unit connector is disconnected.
1. LAMPS OPERATED
The
ICE-80
can be used with most
2
′
–8
′
lamps. Refer to the chart below for the type of lamp(s) operated and the
number of lamps to be operated in emergency mode.
*The 6
″
violet leads provide the lamp selection option. The unit is shipped from the factory with the leads
disconnected and capped. When used with particular lamp types, violet leads should be connected to one another.
Refer to chart for lamp selection options.
2. MOUNTING THE ICE-80
Remove the ballast channel cover. Mount the
ICE-80
in the ballast channel at least
1
/
2
″
away from the A.C. ballast(s).
When battery packs are remote mounted, the remote distance can not exceed ½ of the distance from ballast to
lamp specified by the A.C. ballast manufacturer. For example, if the A.C. ballast manufacturer recommends no
more than 25
′
remote distance, then the battery pack should not exceed 12½
′
.
Under no circumstances should
the battery pack exceed a distance of 50
′
from the lamp.
3. WIRING
Refer to the wiring diagrams on the back page for the appropriate wiring of lamp(s) and ballast. Install in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local regulations. For additional wiring diagrams consult Customer Service.
4. INSTALLING THE CHARGE INDICATOR
Recessed Troffer Fixture – Select a convenient location with proper clearance in the ballast cover and drill or
punch a

bushing into the hole. Push the plastic tube through the bushing.
Disconnect the leads from the

housing and route the leads down the platic tube. Reconnect the leads to the
housing, observing the proper polarity (Red/Black or Red lead w/connector to positive (+) red tab). Push the entire
assembly back into the tube until the lens collar rests against the plastic tube. The plastic tube should be adjusted
so that the

Charge Indicator
must be visible after installa-
tion. Refer to
Illustration 1.
Strip Fixture – Select a convenient location on the side of the fixture so the
Charge Indicator
can be seen after
installation. Allow for proper clearance inside the fixture and drill or punch a ½
″
hole. Disconnect the leads from the
LED
housing. Push the
LED
housing into the
1
/
