Performance & Light Output
This 1×4 troffer outputs a maximum of 5,142 lumens at its highest 40W setting during normal operation. It features comprehensive field-selectability with three distinct color temperatures (3500K, 4000K, and 5000K) and three wattage levels. In the event of a power failure, the integrated battery automatically activates, supplying standby power to operate the fixture at a reduced illumination level for a minimum of 90 minutes to ensure safe building evacuation. The optical design utilizes a frosted polystyrene lens to ensure smooth, glare-free light distribution.
Electrical & Controls
Powered by a high-efficiency Class 2 driver operating on a universal 120-277V circuit, this luminaire ensures stable performance across standard commercial grids. It includes standard 0-10V dimming leads to facilitate smooth integration with daylight harvesting sensors and energy management systems. Installers must ensure an unswitched hot supply line is connected to properly charge the emergency battery system and allow it to function during localized outages.
Construction & Durability
Engineered for lightweight durability, the fixture consists of a robust aluminum frame and a cold-rolled steel back housing, finished in a clean white powder coat to blend seamlessly with standard ceiling grids. The enclosed unit carries an IP20 ingress protection rating against dust, and it is strictly UL listed for use in environmentally controlled damp interior spaces. Due to the battery backup component, the minimum starting temperature is rated for 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Installation & Mounting
The fixture is designed for rapid, drop-in installation into standard 1×4 recessed T-bar ceiling grids. It rests securely on the grid structure, allowing for quick deployment in both retrofit and new construction projects. Installers can adapt the unit for alternative applications using optional surface and recessed mounting kits designed specifically for drywall ceilings (sold separately), ensuring versatile placement across varied architectural layouts requiring emergency lighting.
