Key Features

• Minimum 90-minute emergency runtime with internal Ni‑Cad rechargeable battery and automatic solid-state transfer switch
• High-impact thermoplastic housing with adjustable LED lamp heads and polycarbonate optics
• Optional Self-Diagnostic (SDT) function for continuous diagnostics and periodic discharge tests
• Standard dual-voltage 120/277V, with optional SPV (208/220/240V) or CSA (120/347V) input configurations where specified
• UL listed for damp locations; manufacturer lists NFPA 70 compliance

What this unit does

The LEDR-1 provides dedicated emergency illumination for egress and path-of-egress situations. If AC power is lost, the internal solid-state transfer switch connects the internal battery to the LEDs to supply a minimum of 90 minutes of emergency illumination.

• Designed for code-required emergency egress lighting in commercial occupancies
• Not intended as a general-purpose ambient lighting fixture

Electrical and battery details

Standard units are dual-voltage 120/277V at 60Hz. Optional input configurations include SPV for 208/220/240V (50/60Hz) and CSA for 120/347V where specified. The unit uses a maintenance-free Ni‑Cad battery and a two-rate charger that recharges a discharged battery within 24 hours according to the manufacturer.

• Standard input voltage: 120/277V, 60Hz
• Optional: 208/220/240V (SPV) and 120/347V (CSA) when ordered
• Manufacturer lists example max wattages: LEDR-1 1.8W (0.022A); LEDR-1 SDT 1.6W; LEDR5HO 2.1W
• Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) is included to prevent deep battery discharge

Mounting and physical installation

The LEDR-1 is suitable for surface mounting on walls or ceilings. The housing includes a conduit knockout on top and universal knockouts on the back plate for mounting to a standard junction box. A canopy and mounting hardware are provided by the manufacturer.

• Surface mount for wall or ceiling
• Conduit knockout on top of housing; universal back-plate knockouts for standard J-box
• Adjustable lamp heads to direct light as needed

Light output and spacing

Manufacturer-rated lumen outputs and center-to-center spacing guidance are provided for planning egress coverage. Use these manufacturer figures when specifying spacing and coverage.

• Standard LEDR-1 total luminous output: 89.2 lumens (manufacturer value)
• High-Lumen (HL) 12-LED option: manufacturer lists 130.8 lumens total
• Manufacturer guidance for recommended center-to-center spacing at 10 ft mounting height: standard lamp ~12' x 3'; HL option ~14' x 3'

Controls, testing and configurable options

The unit includes a push-to-test switch and a charge-rate/power ON indicator. The optional SDT (Self-Diagnostic) continuously monitors unit performance and performs periodic tests per the manufacturer's description.

• Push-to-test switch and charge-rate/power ON LED indicator included
• SDT: continuous diagnostics with automatic periodic discharge tests (manufacturer describes monthly and annual test actions)
• Remote-capable LEDR5HO variant can operate up to two additional remote LED heads (remote heads not included)
• Available accessory options include steel wire guard (WG-1) and polycarbonate vandal shield (BGR-1)

Before You Order

Confirm the exact model configuration and any mutually exclusive options before ordering.

• Ordering example format: LEDR-1-WH (model plus housing color)
• CEC Title 20 compliance is not available with SPV or CSA options—verify required compliance for your project
• Remote heads for LEDR5HO are sold separately; confirm remote head requirements if using remote-capable variants
