Installation Instructions
1. To prevent high voltage from being present on red & yellow output leads prior to installation, inverter
connector must be open. Do not join inverter connector until installation is complete and AC power is
supplied to the emergency ballast.
2. This product is for use with one (4') 32 W T8 bipin fluorescent lamp.
3. Make sure all connections are in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local regulations.
4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect both normal and emergency power supplies and
inverter connector of the emergency ballast before servicing.
5. This emergency ballast is for factory or field installation in the ballast channel or on top of fixture.
6. This product is for use in indoor fixtures except air handling heated air outlets, and wet, damp, or
hazardous locations.
7. An unswitched AC power source is required (120 or 277 VAC, 60 Hz).
8. Do not install near gas or electric heaters.
9. Do not attempt to service the battery. A sealed, no-maintenance battery is used that is not field
replaceable. Contact the manufacturer for information on service.
10. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe
condition.
11. Do not use this product for other than intended use.
12. Servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.
CAUTION: Verify that all replacement lamp types marked on the installed luminaire are also identified as suit-
able for use with this inverter/charger pack.

EMERGENCY LIGHTING EQUIPMENT
INSTALLING THE EMERGENCY BALLAST
>
Disconnect AC power from the fixture. Remove the
ballast channel cover and install the emergency
ballast in the ballast channel (see Illustration 1).
>
Remote mounting distance must be less than half
the maximum remote mounting distance for the
AC ballast. Consult AC ballast manufacturer
before remote installation.
STEP #2
INSTALLING THE TEST SWITCH
>
Refer to Illustration 2 and install the test switch
through the ballast channel cover of a troffer or
through the side of a strip fixture.
>
Drill a 1/2" hole and install the switch as shown.
>
Wire the test switch so that it removes AC power
from both the emergency ballast and the AC ballast
at the same time (see Illustration 3).
STEP #3
INSTALLING THE CHARGING
INDICATOR LIGHT
>
Refer to Illustration 3A or 3B and install the charg-
ing indicator light so that it will be visible after the
fixture is installed.
WARNING: TO PREVENT HIGH VOLTAGE FROM BEING PRESENT ON RED & YELLOW OUTPUT
LEADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION, INVERTER CONNECTOR MUST BE OPEN. DO NOT JOIN
INVERTER CONNECTOR UNTIL INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE AND AC POWER IS SUPPLIED
TO THE EMERGENCY BALLAST.
NOTE:
Make sure that the necessary branch circuit wiring is available. An unswitched
source of power is required. The emergency ballast must be fed from the same
branch circuit as the AC ballast.

WIRING THE EMERGENCY BALLAST
>
Select the appropriate wiring diagram and connect the emergency ballast to the AC ballast and lamp(s). Make
sure all connections are in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local regulations.
>
After installation is complete, supply AC power to the emergency ballast and join the inverter connector.
>
At this point, power should be connected to both the AC ballast and the emergency ballast, and the Charging
Indicator Light should illuminate indicating the battery is charging.
>
A short-term discharge test may be conducted after the emergency ballast has been charging for one hour.
Charge for 24 hours before conducting a long-term discharge test. Refer to OPERATION.
>
In a readily visible location, attach the label "CAUTION - This Unit Has More Than One Power Connection PointTo
Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The Branch Circuit-Breakers Or Fuses And Emergency Power
Supplies Before Servicing."
When AC power is applied, the charging indicator light is illuminated, indicating that the battery is being charged. When
power fails, the emergency ballast automatically switches to emergency power, operating one lamp at reduced illumination.
This emergency ballast will operate one (4') 32 W T8 bipin lamp for a minimum of 90 minutes.
Although no routine maintenance is required to keep the emergency ballast functional, it should be checked periodically to
ensure that it is working. The following schedule is recommended:
1.
Visually inspect the charging indicator light monthly. It should be illuminated.
2.
Test the emergency operation of the fixture at 30-day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds.
One lamp should operate at reduced illumination.
3.
Conduct a 90-minute discharge test once a year. One lamp should operate at reduced
illumination for at least 90 minutes.
! REFER ANY SERVICING INDICATED BY THESE CHECKS TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL !

OPERATION
NOTE: After installing the charging indicator light and test switch, mark each with the appropriate label. If a
detached charging indicator light is used, connect by matching wire colors and install as shown above.
