Emergency Lighting

Rapid-Lite's EMERGENCY PAC (EME) adds reliable Emergency Lighting to a standard fluorescent fixture.

There when you need it

Rapid-Lite’s Emergency Pac assures dependable emergency lighting for fluorescent lumineres in all types of installations.

When AC power fails for any reason EME automatically activates one lamp (or two lamp option available) in the fluorescent fixture at a reduced light output, providing 90 minutes of safe egress lighting. When AC power is restored, the unit automatically switches to the charging mode and normal lighting resumes.

Doesn't interfere with normal lighting

EME can be installed in the ballast channel or on the outside of the lighting fixture. It doesn't interfere with the normal operation of the lighting fixture and is compatible with standard, energy-saving or solid state, one or two lamp fluorescent
ballasts

Because EME is concealed within the lighting fixture, its functionality does not affect the aesthetic lighting environment. The result of using EME opens new possibilities for the lighting or interior designer in selecting the proper fixture for the application. Because it is not visible, EME discourages vandalism and theft.
