INTRODUCING THE NEW MINI INVERTERS BY EMERGI-LITE

RELIABILITY THROUGH TECHNOLOGY WITH TODAY’S HIGHLY EFFICIENT LED TECHNOLOGY, MINI INVERTERS ARE A RELIABLE, ECONOMICAL, HIGH-PERFORMANCE CHOICE FOR EMERGENCY POWER.

Mini Inverters offer many Allows existing fixtures to be used Powers LED fixtures and most light advantages. Provides a broad range as emergency . To preserve sources at 100%. When power fails, of capacity for system flexibility. the aesthetics of high-visibility the Mini Inverter supplies 100% The Mini Inverter provides 125W areas, the Mini Inverter can run power/lumen output with less than to 720W of emergency power existing normally-on light fixtures 1 second of transfer, and is ideal for 90 minutes to exit signs and in a power failure, as an alternative for use with LED fixtures and most emergency lighting equipment. to separate dedicated emergency light sources except HID. Fixtures Each Mini Inverter can power many lighting. can be on, off, switched or dimmed remote fixtures for a streamlined triac dimmable ballast. system with a small footprint. Ideal for locations with limited space to house power systems, Mini Inverters can be installed unobtrusively in a small area and added as needed to provide emergency power on each floor of MINI larger buildings. INVERTERS: EFFICIENT & RELIABLE POWER IN AN EMERGENCY

1 Compatibility with Nexus® real-time monitoring system Reliability is built into the Mini Inverter. The UL924 listed provides even higher levels of system reliability. With the Mini Inverter uses a long-life, maintenance-free the Mini Inverter, all the advantages of Nexus® Lead-Acid battery. Fully-featured self-diagnostics test real-time monitoring system are now available for the batteries and lamps connected to the Mini Inverter inverter-powered systems. Nexus® manages the so you can rest assured that your emergency lighting status of the total load on the Mini Inverter from a system will be on when the main power fails. central control unit. Through wireless communication and building , Nexus runs diagnostics, performs required monthly and annual functional tests according to Life Satefy Code, generates maintenance logs, and runs compliance reports. A Nexus® system can contribute to LEED certification and support initiatives.

Back-up power can be provided in many ways. However, even though certain methods are suitable for critical applications, they may not be suitable for Emergency Lighting. This is because an Emergency Lighting system has unique load characteristics. Since Emergency Lighting is a critical life safety installation, it must be designed with its specific load characteristics in mind. Mini Inverter systems are specifically designed to provide emergency power for Emergency Lighting systems in a power failure. 3 MINI INVERTER FEATU MINI INVERTER MINIFEATURES INVERTER & FEATURES BENEFITS & BENEFITS

Any fault cost, while ensuring that local safety codes are met, and condition causes a status LED indicator to blink, provides system reliability in a power failure condition. identifying the nature of the fault. Every 30 days, the sequence generator will generate a command to force High Performance a transfer in emergency mode for a variable test period The Mini Inverter is a rugged, easy-to-maintain system with based on code requirements (30 seconds each month, exceptional performance for emergency lighting use. It offers and 90 minutes after 12 months). exceptional overload performance without the need to over- specify the rating. System Design Inverter and charger modules utilize highly reliable solid Versatile Applications state electronics.The modules feature input and output Mini Inverter systems can be used in almost every type protection, and they measure and limit their own current. of building, and are ideal for architecturally sensitive applications or when maintenance costs and testing Capacity of individual unit equipment becomes significant. The Capacity is available starting at 125W up to 720W, 120V and smaller unit size of the Mini Inverter allows more flexibility 277V and minimizes testing. The Mini Inverter can be installed at a distance, offering the opportunity to hide the unit True Sine Waveform (250W and up) from view and maintain the architectural design by Using a solid-state, pulse width modulation (PWM) powering normally-on luminaires. inverter, Mini Inverter systems produce pure sinusoidal output waveform with less than 5% Total Harmonic Maximum Light Output Distortion (THD) for linear loads. The Mini Inverter will deliver 100% power / lumen output CHOOSING THE RIGHT BACKUP of the fixture up to the specified run time.
