How long do emergency lights operate during power outages?

LEDEX emergency lighting fixtures are designed to provide a minimum of 90 minutes of emergency illumination during power outages, as required by safety codes. Many of our units can be configured for extended runtime of up to 3 hours depending on the specific model and battery configuration.

Do emergency lights perform automatic self-testing?

Yes, our advanced emergency lighting systems include automatic self-testing functionality that periodically tests the battery, charging system, and LED operation. The system provides visual and audible indicators for any detected issues, ensuring reliable emergency operation when needed.

Can emergency lights be used in hazardous locations?

Absolutely. LEDEX emergency lighting fixtures are available with explosion proof certifications for C1D1, C1D2, and C2D1 hazardous locations. These units combine emergency backup functionality with explosion proof construction to provide critical safety illumination in high-risk environments.

What is explosion proof lighting and why is it required?

Explosion proof lighting is specially designed and certified lighting equipment that can safely operate in hazardous locations where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present. These fixtures are engineered to contain any internal explosion and prevent ignition of external explosive atmospheres. They are required by safety regulations in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and manufacturing to ensure worker safety and regulatory compliance.

What do the hazardous location classifications C1D1, C1D2, and C2D1 mean?

These classifications define the level of explosion risk in different environments: Class 1 Division 1 (C1D1) locations have flammable gases or vapors present continuously or intermittently during normal operations. Class 1 Division 2 (C1D2) locations have flammable substances present only during abnormal conditions. Class 2 Division 1 (C2D1) locations have combustible dust present in sufficient quantities to create explosive mixtures under normal conditions.

Are LEDEX lighting products UL listed and certified?

Yes, all LEDEX explosion proof lighting products are UL listed and certified for their respective hazardous location classifications. Our fixtures also meet CSA standards and many carry additional international certifications including ATEX and IECEx for global compliance. Each product comes with proper certification documentation and labeling.
