What is an emergency conversion kit?
An emergency conversion kit is also known as an emergency power unit or emergency power pack. It consists of an inverter and a rechargeable battery pack. When AC power is present, the inverter keeps the battery charged and in standby mode. When AC power is interrupted, the inverter automatically converts the DC battery power to standard AC voltage, providing backup power for the luminaire. to ensure its use as a safety and emergency luminaire.
It provides 1-3 hours of emergency lighting with battery packs of different capacities.
The technical characteristics of the emergency conversion kits vary according to the emergency lighting requirements.
For LED, fluorescent or halogen lamps
Different light sources require different inverter circuits.
Even if they are both LED conversion kits, the kits for use with LED bulbs/tubes (with integrated drivers) are different from the kits for LED panel lights/downlights (with separate drivers).
Maintenance or non-maintenance.
Two modes of emergency lighting operation in the event of a power outage. The maintenance system operates during both normal power supply and power outages, while the non-maintenance emergency lights only come on during power outages.
Integrated or External Battery Packs
Some emergency kits come with a built-in battery pack in a single housing with an inverter. They are smaller in size than emergency kits with external batteries.
