Application

In the past, all emergency lights were left on 24 hours a day to meet safety codes.  Now  you  can 
specify  &  install  a 

UL924  Listed Emergency  Power  Control  EPC-2-D-FM, 

which converts up a 

normal light fixture into an approved emergency light.  During normal operation, the EPC-2-D-FM dims 
designated emergency lights with the same control as your normal lights.  During a utility power inter-
ruption,  the EPC-2-D-FM turns designated emergency lights on, at full brightness, regardless of 
dimmer position.

Intended for use with switching, 0-10V and DALI/EcoSystem dimming controls.

To control multiple emergency luminaires from a single UL924 relay, use model EPC-2-D.
For Line Voltage Dimmable Loads, use model EPC-D-F-ATS.
For applications using 10 or more high inrush electronic ballasts or drivers, highbay or 347V 
applications, use EPC-1-D-HV.

Patented Automatic Diagnostic - 

When the room switch is turned off, EPC-2-D-FM tests itself for 2.5 

seconds, testing that an emergency power source is available and that the EPC-2-D-FM, ballast, and 
lamp(s) are functioning correctly.  This feature eliminates the need for manual monthly testing and is 
approved for this purpose.  This allows installation in any location because its test switch does not need 
to be accessible.  This feature can be disabled in the field by cutting the blue jumper.

Fire Alarm / Remote Test Switch - 

Some applications demand that emergency lighting be activated 

upon fire alarm, security alarm, or remote test switch activation.  The EPC-2-D-FM is equipped with a 
low voltage override input (red jumper).  Please visit www.lvscontrols.com/FAI.php for details

Confirm body size 

will fit in fixture ballast channel prior 

to installation.
