CENTRAL BATTERY
Thinking about Central Battery? Think EMEX!With exceptional performance, precision engineering and easy maintenance, it’s simple to see why EMEX Power is the assured choice for engineers and consultants preparing centrally powered emergency lighting schemes.
EMEX Power is manufactured at our ISO 9001 approved facility in the UK, and has been specifically designed to power emergency lighting in a mains fail or evacuation situation. The system carries the capacity to start the full luminaire load without mains supply present, offers excellent overload and recharge capabilities, and includes enhanced protection with MCB’s throughout.
Furthermore, as a power supply system to emergency lighting, EMEX Power meets all the requirements of ICEL 1009 and BS EN 50171 product standards.
In effect, EMEX Power has been designed to meet the most stringent demands of emergency lighting scheme designers, engineers, building owners /occupiers and the requirements of local fire authorities.
Enhanced testing facility: Fully compatible with EMEX Test automated testing solution (available as either integral touch-screen – ‘EMEX TS’ – or remote PC)
Plus, our renowned EMEX customer support programme includes:
●● Technical support & scheme design
●● Conversion service
●● Slave emergency lighting
●● Commissioning & servicing
●● Overvoltage protection
Whether specifying, planning or installing centrally powered emergency lighting, call our EMEX team on 0113 281 0600 or visit www.emergi-lite.co.uk
Key benefits of EMEX Power:
Extended system life: EMEX Power system design life in excess of 20 years, providing excellent ROI
Long life batteries: Battery life up to twice that of a self-contained system
System flexibility: Flexible design enables the EMEX system to manage any load power factor, from zero to unity, at any output power up to the maximum rated KVA
Modular construction: Five key components for minimal stock holding of parts, easy maintenance and reduced system downtime/cost of repair
