6. After installation is complete, supply AC power to the emergency ballast and join the inverter connector.
7. A short-term discharge test may be conducted after the emergency ballast has been charging for one hour.
Charge for 24 hours before conducting a long-term discharge test. Refer to OPERATION.
OPERATION
When AC power is applied, the charging indicator light is illuminated, indicating the battery is being charged. When
power fails, the emergency ballast automatically switches to emergency power, operating one or two lamps at
reduced illumination. When AC power is restored, the emergency ballast returns to the charging mode and delays AC
ballast operation for approximately three seconds to prevent false-tripping of AC ballast (end-of-lamp-life) shutdown
circuits. This emergency ballast will operate the rated lamp load for a minimum of 90 minutes.
MAINTENANCE
Although no routine maintenance is required to keep the emergency ballast functional, it should be checked
periodically to ensure that it is working. The following schedule is recommended:
1. Visually inspect the charging indicator light monthly. It should be illuminated.
2. Test the emergency operation of the fixture at 30-day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds. Either one or two
lamps should operate at reduced illumination.
3. Conduct a 90-minute discharge test once a year. Either one or two lamps should operate at reduced illumination
for at least 90 minutes.
