Emergency Lighting Testing and Certification
With the development of LED technology, emergency functions have become one of the features of LED lighting products.
An emergency light is a battery-powered lighting device that automatically turns on in the event of a building power outage. Emergency lighting is a standard requirement for most building codes in new commercial and residential buildings as well as older buildings.
LED Emergency Lighting
LED products offer bulb life advantages and energy savings to meet virtually all photometric parameters.
LEDs also help develop a new generation of more compact emergency luminaires while maintaining or improving the quality and distribution of light - a major advantage for architects and designers.
In addition to lamp life advantages and energy savings benefits, LED emergency luminaires gain further advantages in terms of lamp replacement costs, illumination of high-risk task areas using controlled light distribution, heat reduction, light quality and lamp source quality.
