4 Watt LED Exit Sign | 120 Minute Battery Backup | New York City Approved

Product Overview

This 4 Watt LED Exit Sign is designed for emergency egress and exit marking in commercial and industrial environments. It provides clear, illuminated exit signage with a 120-minute battery backup for code-compliant life safety coverage. The fixture is approved for use in New York City and is suitable for wet locations, making it appropriate for both interior and select exterior egress paths.

The housing is fire-resistant aluminum, and the unit operates on 100-277V input. Typical installations include stairwells, corridors, and building exits where reliable emergency exit visibility is required. Surface or wall mounting options support a range of building layouts and retrofit scenarios.

Core Performance and Output

This exit sign delivers 4 watts of LED illumination at 5000K, providing high-contrast visibility for exit pathways. The fixture maintains consistent output during normal operation and automatically switches to battery backup for up to 120 minutes during power loss. Power factor exceeds 0.90, and total harmonic distortion is below 20%.

Uniform face illumination ensures legibility from standard viewing distances. Output is optimized for code-compliant egress marking, not for general area lighting. Excessive ambient light or mounting above recommended heights may reduce sign visibility.

Adjustability and Control Options

This fixture does not include dimming or advanced control features. Operation is automatic, with integrated battery backup and self-contained switching between normal and emergency modes. The sign is designed for continuous illumination and emergency activation without user intervention.

Directional arrows and faceplate configuration are set during installation. No remote control or network integration is provided.

Longevity and Reliability

Rated for 50,000 hours of LED life, this exit sign is built for long-term reliability in demanding environments. The battery backup system is engineered for repeated charge/discharge cycles and provides a minimum of 120 minutes of emergency operation per code requirements.

Routine inspection and periodic battery testing are recommended to maintain code compliance and operational readiness. The fixture is covered by a 2-year warranty.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from fire-resistant aluminum and finished in white. The fixture measures 14 x 10.5 x 2 inches and weighs 3.5 lbs, supporting secure mounting on standard wall or surface locations. The design is suitable for wet locations and meets UL listing requirements.

All components are sealed to prevent moisture ingress. The unit is designed for durability in high-traffic and public areas, with a robust enclosure to withstand routine impacts and cleaning.

Where This Product Fits Best

This LED exit sign is intended for use in commercial, industrial, and public buildings where code-compliant emergency egress marking is required. It is suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects in environments with high occupancy or regulated safety standards.

Wet location rating and fire-resistant construction allow deployment in stairwells, corridors, and exit paths exposed to moisture or humidity. The fixture is approved for use in New York City and other jurisdictions with strict code requirements.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Surface or wall mounting is supported using standard hardware. The fixture?s compact size and light weight simplify installation in tight or overhead locations. Electrical connection is made to 100-277V supply, with battery backup integrated inside the housing.

Routine maintenance includes periodic battery testing and visual inspection for damage or obstruction. The fixture is designed for minimal service requirements, with no lamp replacement needed during its rated life. Battery replacement may be required over time depending on usage and test results.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 7 to 10 feet above finished floor, positioned above doors, at corridor intersections, or along egress routes. Spacing is determined by code requirements and sightline considerations, with additional units installed at changes in direction or where visibility may be obstructed.

In high-occupancy or multi-story buildings, exit signs are deployed at every required exit and along all designated egress paths. Higher ambient light levels may require closer spacing or additional signs to maintain visibility. Battery backup ensures continued operation during power outages, supporting safe evacuation.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed, wet location rated, and approved for use in New York City. The housing is fire-resistant and suitable for installation in code-regulated environments. All components are designed to meet life safety and emergency egress requirements.

The product includes a 2-year warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Compliance with local codes and periodic testing are required for continued code acceptance.
