OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
****************************** IMPORTANT WARNING ****************************
This unit is using Lithium Iron Phosphate cell (LiFeP04)in its battery pack. These batteries require
close monitoring and protection circuitry to operate safely. This pack uses a dedicated protection
circuit board under the batteries sleeving meaning the protection is part of the battery pack in this
case and not protection circuitry on the main PCB. The same ‘protected’ pack will be required when
exchanging battery packs in the future during maintenance.
TESTING FOR EMERGENCY LUMINAIRES
Recommended routine test procedures in line with BS 5266 & BS EN 50172:
Monthly Functional Test
•
Simulate a mains supply failure by isolating the circuit (ensuring if it is safe to do so) or by way of a test key switch if
fitted into the circuit.
•
Do this for a period of time sufficient to check that the light source illuminates from the battery supply.
•
Once complete, ensure the normal supply is restored & that the green LED charge indicator illuminates.
•
Log result/comments in the Testing Log Book.
Annual Discharge Test
•
Simulate a mains supply failure by isolating the circuit (ensuring if it is safe to do so) or by way of a test key switch if
fitted into the circuit.
•
This should be for the full 3-hour rated duration.
•
Check that the light source illuminates & remains illuminated for the full rated duration period.
•
Once complete, ensure the normal supply is restored & that the green LED charge indicator illuminates.
•
Log result/comments in the Testing Log Book.
