1.0 Introduction – Protecta LED GRP
This installation leaflet covers the range of Protecta GRP luminaire models with the Ex q control gear. These luminaires are
mainly used in harsh environments and are constructed using a corrosion resistant glass reinforced polyester body and
polycarbonate diffuser. The integrated unit consists of a battery pack and a mains supplied driver to supply the LED strips
and charge the battery pack in normal situations and power the LED strips from the battery pack in an emergency situation.
The driver monitors the emergency functions and displays the emergency unit status by means of a green LED. Refer to the
current catalogue for information on product references. The luminaires are available in 02L (2ft) and 05L (4ft) sizes.
