Important Safety Instructions

When using electrical equipment and this lighting device basic safety precaution should be followed at all times including but not limited to the following:

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY

IMPORTANT: An un-switched AC power source of 120VAC to 277VAC is required for the yellow/black and white leads.
IMPORTANT: A switched or un-switched AC power source of 120VAC to 277VAC is acceptable for the black lead only.
This device is designed for use in fixtures listed for dry and damp locations.
CAUTION: Make sure all electrical connections conform to the National Electrical Code and all applicable local regulations.
CAUTION: Do not let power supply cords touch hot surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
CAUTION: Do not use this emergency driver with accessory equipment other than recommended by manufacturer; failure to follow this may cause an unsafe condition. Servicing should only be performed by qualified service personnel.
CAUTION: Do not use this emergency driver for other than intended use.
CAUTION: Battery is rechargeable LiFePO4 type and must be recycled or disposed of properly.
CAUTION: Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel.

ASSEMBLY and FIELD INSTALLATION WIRING: WARNING: AC power must be off before proceeding with assembly, installation or servicing of emergency driver. Additionally ensure that the battery is disconnected (Battery Switch set to OFF).

TESTING SYSTEM: The emergency battery requires a minimum charge time of one (1) hour before testing the circuit. A minimum of twelve (12) hours is required for a full charge.

IMPORTANT: In order to maintain proper operation and warranty coverage, the battery must be recharged once per year prior to installation.

RATED EMERGENCY OPERATION: Ninety (90) minutes for the 10W load or one hundred eighty (180) minutes for the 5W load. The 10W or 5W option is determined by the position of Dip Switch 1 (Emergency Power Selection Switch).

Guideline on calculating emergency illumination level

The purpose of this guideline is to identify the illumination level of the LED luminaire when used with Fulham’s FHSAC1-UNV-40C LED emergency driver. The path of egress illumination level during emergency operation is determined by types of luminaires, Luminaire Efficacy, Luminaire Mounting Height, Emergency Power and some other effects in real application.

Step 1: Select an LED Luminaire, and make sure the LED light source is electrically compatible with Fulham’s LED emergency driver. Get the Light Distribution data (usually an .ies file) and Rated Efficacy data (lumen per watt) from luminaire supplier.

If the luminaire is DesignLights ConsortiumTM (DLC) compliant, you can also get the efficacy information from DLC website.

Open DLC Qualified Product List(QPL) database search page: https://www.designlights.org/search/
Searching keywords by model, brand name or manufacturer for the luminaire used.
Find the “Efficacy” data listed on website or calculated by dividing “Light output” by “Wattage”, the efficacy value should be shown in lumen per watt (lm/W).

If the luminaire is ENERGY STAR compliant, you can also get the luminaire efficacy information from ENERGY STAR website.

Open ENERGY STAR certified Light Fixtures database search page:
https://www.energystar.gov/productfinder/product/certified-light- fixtures/results
Searching keywords by model, brand name or manufacturer for the luminaire used.
Find the “Energy Efficiency” data listed on website. If it is showed as “Measured at the Source”, please contact with luminaire supplier for additional light loss for this light source inside the fixture. The value should be shown in lumen per watt (lm/W).

Step 2: Determine the Emergency Power and calculate the Emergency Light Output.
FHSAC1-UNV-40C is programmable output; setting a proper Emergency Power is vital to achieve desired illumination.

Emergency Light Output is equal to the Emergency Power multiply by luminaire efficacy. For example, if the luminaire is 120lm/W and in 3W emergency operation, the total Emergency Light Output is 120lm/W * 3W = 360lm.

Step 3: Use industry lighting design software to calculate the illumination level according to the luminaire layout in room, luminaire mounting height, the original .ies file and Emergency Light Output calculated above. If the illumination level cannot meet life safety codes, go back to Step2 to use a higher Emergency Power or go back to Step1 to select a higher efficacy luminaire or use more luminaires in the room.

Fulham’s FHSAC1-UNV-40C LED emergency driver is compliant with UL 924 standard, according to UL test data, Table 1 and Table 2 below give basic indication to determine the min. Emergency Power and Luminaire Max. Mounting Height for 1 foot-candle illumination based on a single luminaire with typical Lambertian distribution. It is the light designer/ construction contractor’s responsibility to validate the real illumination level on site, to assure the emergency light illumination level is in accordance with the requirement of Federal, state and local municipal codes. It may diff to the theoretical calculation or simulation on computer.

Self Diagnostic Instructions / Operation

If Dip Switch 2 (Self-Diagnostic Switch) is set to the OFF position:
The self diagnostic feature is disable. A functionality test shall be manually conducted every thirty(30) days to ensure the emergency LED light source illuminates as intended. A full discharge test shall be conducted once a year; the LED light source shall illuminate for a minimum of ninety (90) minutes for the 10W load (Dip Switch 1 is set to the ON position) or one hundred eighty (180) minutes for 5W load (Dip Switch 1 is set to the OFF position).

If Dip Switch 2 (Self-Diagnostic Switch) is set to the ON position:
The self diagnostic feature is enable .The emergency LED driver will conduct a self check for thirty (30) seconds every thirty (30) days; and ninety (90) minutes or one hundred eighty (180) minutes self check every 12 months. After every self check the LED indicator light will indicate a status signal. A single self-diagnostic test can be activated by pressing the test switch three (3) times. Refer to Indicators Status Table for details.

When user toggle the Dip Switch, the LED indicator on Switch button would flash 3 times, 2.5S ON/0.5S OFF for Enabled, while 0.5S ON/2.5S OFF for Disabled.

Test Switch Indicator Status

Test Switch Operations

EM Test: Press and hold test button (>1s)to enter EM mode for testing in normal AC powered. Subsequent tests can be performed after a minimum 20 Second delay in pressing the Test Switch.
