Requires factory startup (see FSREG#, FSCAN, FSMEX) to be ordered. This option is required in California when the IIS Inverter System has more than 50 gallons of electrolytes or more (applies to 16.7VA through 50000VA single and three phase models).

Available on IIS Single Phase, IIS3P, and IISCN3P models

BYPASSBBM – Internal Maintenance Bypass (Break Before Make)

Includes a Maintenance Bypass Switch that is mounted inside the IIS Inverter System. This device allows maintenance personnel to route power from the AC utility directly to the output circuit breakers, bypassing the inverter electronics. The switch isolates the system to perform routine maintenance or servicing while allowing the lighting load to remain in normal operation. The “break before make” switch disconnects the power inside the inverter immediately before it makes the direct electrical connection from the AC utility to the output circuit breakers. Requires output circuit breakers. If output circuit breakers are not desired, an External Maintenance Bypass may be available (see EXTPASS).

Available on IIS Single Phase and IISC models. This feature is standard with IIS3P and IISCN3P models.

BYPASSBBM – Internal Maintenance Bypass (Break Before Make)

Includes a Maintenance Bypass Switch that is mounted inside the IIS Inverter System. This device allows maintenance personnel to route power from the AC utility directly to the output circuit breakers, bypassing the inverter electronics. The switch isolates the system to perform routine maintenance or servicing while allowing the lighting load to remain in normal operation. The “break before make” switch disconnects the power inside the inverter immediately before it makes the direct electrical connection from the AC utility to the output circuit breakers. Requires output circuit breakers. If output circuit breakers are not desired, an External Maintenance Bypass may be available (see EXTPASS). Available on IIS Single Phase, IISC, IIS3P, and IISCN3P models.

DR – Dimming Relay

Allows a 0-10V dimming signal to reach interfacing emergency luminaires during normal power conditions and will interrupt the 0-10V dimming signal if a power loss is detected. This will cause the emergency luminaires to operate at full light output in power loss conditions regardless of the position of a 0-10V dimming control. Note: the usefulness of on-board dimming relays is limited in large applications with multiple circuit breakers since this only allows for a single dimming control to be employed for each output circuit. Consider using an ALCR device such as the IOTA ETS DR in these scenarios.

Available on IIS 1100 and IISCN models.
