Fluorescent Emergency Ballast 500 T5HO LOW PROFILE

 APPLICATION FEB500-T5HO LOW PROFILE  

• 500 Lumen T5 Ballast, F28W Lamp

• One 14W - 28W T5 and T5HO Lamp

• One 17W -32W T8 Linear Fluorescent Lamp

OPERATION  

• When AC power fails, the FEB500-T5HO immediately switches to the emergency mode, keeping one lamp illuminated at a reduced lumen output for a minimum of 90 minutes.  When AC power is restored, the ballast automatically returns to the charging mode.

INSTALLATION

• The FEB500-T5HO does not affect normal fixture operation and may be used with either a switched or unswitched fixture.  If a switched fixture is used, an unswitched hot lead must be connected to the emergency ballast.  The emergency ballast must be fed from the same branch circuit as the AC ballast. The FEB500-T5HO may be installed inside, on top of, or remote from the fixture.  The emergency ballast may be remote-installed up to half the distance the AC ballast manufacturer recommends remoting the AC ballast from the lamp, or up to 50 feet, whichever is less.  Installation is not recommended with fixtures where the ambient temperature may fall below 0°C for extended periods.

 UL AND CODE COMPLIANCE

• The Ballast have been tested by Underwriters Laboratories in accordance with the standards set forth in UL 924, “Emergency Lighting and Power Equipment,” and is UL Listed for factory or field installation.  Emergency illumination time exceeds the National Electrical Code (NEC), Life Safety Code (NFPA—LSC) and UL 90-minute requirements.
