25 Watt Emergency Driver | Emergency Battery Backup Supply

Product Overview

This 25 Watt Emergency Driver is designed to provide emergency battery backup for LED UFO high bay fixtures. It supports up to 200W LED high bays operating at 100-277V, with surface mount installation and IP65 protection. Typical use is in commercial and industrial environments where emergency egress lighting is required, such as warehouses and manufacturing facilities.

The unit integrates with dimmable LED high bays (0-10V or 1-10V) and delivers up to 90 minutes of emergency illumination. Self-testing capability and compatibility with wall switches and motion sensors are included. This driver is UL listed for code compliance and is suitable for both new installations and retrofit projects.

Core Performance and Output

This emergency driver supplies a constant 25W output during emergency operation, supporting fixtures up to 200W. It maintains consistent emergency light levels for up to 90 minutes, ensuring code-required egress illumination. The driver operates at 100-277V and is compatible with both 50Hz and 60Hz systems.

Performance is stable across the supported voltage range. Output is limited to 25W in emergency mode, which may not match full fixture output. Excessive mounting heights or high-output fixtures may require additional emergency drivers to meet minimum light levels.

Adjustability and Control Options

This emergency driver is compatible with 0-10V and 1-10V dimmable LED UFO high bays. It supports integration with wall switches and motion sensors, allowing for flexible control in normal operation. The unit features self-testing functionality for ongoing compliance and maintenance checks.

No manual adjustment of emergency output is available. The driver automatically switches to emergency mode during power loss and reverts to charging when power is restored.

Longevity and Reliability

The emergency driver is designed for long-term reliability in demanding environments. The battery backup system provides up to 90 minutes of emergency lighting and recharges fully within 24 hours. Self-testing ensures ongoing readiness and reduces manual inspection requirements.

IP65 construction protects against dust and water ingress, supporting use in industrial and commercial spaces. Battery life and performance may be affected by ambient temperature extremes or repeated deep discharge cycles.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The unit features a compact, surface-mountable enclosure measuring 5.5 inches in diameter by 6.8 inches in height and weighing 3.96 lbs. The housing is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance. All wiring and mounting hardware are designed for secure installation in typical high bay environments.

UL certification is provided. The driver is suitable for installation in exposed or semi-protected locations within industrial and commercial buildings.

Where This Product Fits Best

IP65 rating and UL certification allow use in locations exposed to dust and moisture. The unit is not intended for hazardous or marine environments.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Surface mounting is standard, with compact dimensions allowing installation alongside or near the supported UFO high bay fixture. The driver is compatible with both new and retrofit projects, provided the fixture is dimmable and within the supported wattage range.

Routine self-testing reduces manual inspection requirements. Battery replacement may be required over the service life, depending on usage and environmental conditions. Installation should follow all local codes and manufacturer instructions.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Emergency drivers are typically installed with UFO high bay fixtures at mounting heights ranging from 15 to 40 feet. Spacing and layout depend on the emergency light level requirements and the number of fixtures equipped with backup drivers.

In most deployments, not every fixture is equipped with an emergency driver; placement is based on egress path coverage and code requirements. Higher output fixtures or greater mounting heights may require closer spacing or additional drivers to maintain minimum emergency illumination.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This emergency driver is UL listed and rated IP65 for dust and water resistance. It is designed to meet emergency lighting code requirements for commercial and industrial facilities. Self-testing functionality supports ongoing compliance and safety verification.

Standard warranty coverage applies. Refer to product documentation for warranty terms and service procedures.
