UL-Listed Self-Testing Emergency LED Driver

July 21, 2017 by Paul Shepard

With the release of the ILB-CP10-HE-SD, IOTA has introduced the first UL Listed self-testing emergency LED driver for field and factory installations. IOTA’s ILB-CP10-HE-SD Emergency LED Driver combines patented Constant Power illumination with automatic self-testing technology for optimal Life-Safety egress performance.

The ILB-CP10-HE-SD provides automatic monthly and annual testing of the system battery and load performance to help ensure proper operation. The integrated self-diagnostic circuitry will automatically conduct monthly 30-second and annual 90-minute tests to verify proper emergency capability per Life Safety Code requirements.

If system faults are detected, errors are communicated to facility managers and inspectors via a red flashing indicator, allowing for issues to be addressed before an emergency lighting scenario occurs.

The unit contains a battery, charger, and converter circuit in a single enclosure. These drivers operate with a universal 120- to 277-Vac 2-wire input.

During a power loss, the constant power design of the ILB-CP10-HE-SD delivers 10 Watts of non-diminishing power to the fixture, resulting in no degradation of emergency illumination for the required 90-minute runtime.

Additionally, the ILB-CP10-HE-SD features a high-efficiency micro-processor design for CEC energy compliance, 10- to 60-Vdc Class 2 driver output compatibility, and six available mounting configurations to meet individual fixture requirements.
