12 Watt LED Security Wall Pack | 960 Lumens | 5000K | 100-277V | Built-In Photocell | Emergency Battery Backup

Product Overview

This 12 Watt LED Security Wall Pack is designed for low-level exterior illumination on building perimeters and pathways. The fixture delivers 960 lumens at 5000K, providing a daylight-white output suitable for security and general exterior wall lighting. Typical installations include mounting at entryways, service doors, and along building facades where controlled, reliable illumination is required. The compact form factor and integrated photocell support dusk-to-dawn operation, while the optional emergency battery backup maintains egress lighting during power loss.

Wall mounting is straightforward, and the fixture?s die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens withstand outdoor exposure. This model is a direct replacement for legacy 70W metal halide wall packs, offering improved efficiency and reduced maintenance in commercial and multifamily exterior environments.

Core Performance and Output

This wall pack outputs 960 lumens at 12 watts, achieving 80 lumens per watt. The Type 5 distribution provides uniform coverage outward from the mounting surface, supporting perimeter and entry lighting requirements. The 5000K color temperature delivers clear, high-visibility illumination for security and wayfinding.

Electrical performance includes a universal 100-277V input, power factor above 0.90, and THD below 20%. Output is best suited for mounting heights up to 10 feet; higher installations may result in reduced ground-level illumination. Excessive output is not a concern at low mounting heights, making this fixture appropriate for doorways and walkways.

Adjustability and Control Options

This fixture includes a built-in photocell for automatic dusk-to-dawn operation. No manual dimming or advanced control options are provided. The emergency battery backup option enables continued operation during power outages, supporting code-required egress lighting.

There are no field-adjustable optics or beam shaping features. The Type 5 distribution is fixed and optimized for wide, even coverage in exterior wall applications.

Longevity and Reliability

The LED array is rated for 50,000 hours (L70), supporting multi-year operation with minimal lumen depreciation. The fixture is IP65 rated, providing protection against dust and water jets from any direction. The die-cast aluminum housing resists corrosion and impact in exposed exterior environments.

All components are selected for long-term reliability in commercial and multifamily exterior installations. The integrated emergency battery backup is designed for routine testing and maintenance cycles as required by code.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The fixture measures 10.4 inches high by 6.3 inches wide by 3.86 inches deep and weighs 1.4 pounds. The housing is bronze-finished die-cast aluminum with a polycarbonate lens for impact resistance and UV stability. All wiring and mounting hardware are accessible from the rear for direct wall mounting.

UL listing and IP65 rating confirm suitability for outdoor use. The fixture is designed for direct replacement of legacy wall packs, matching common mounting patterns and electrical connections.

Where This Product Fits Best

This wall pack is intended for low-level exterior lighting on commercial, multifamily, and service buildings. It is best suited for locations requiring reliable, moderate-output illumination for safety, security, and wayfinding.

• security lighting
• building facade lighting
• building exterior lighting
• commercial exterior wall lighting
• perimeter lighting
• entry lighting
• service area lighting
• multifamily exterior lighting

Environmental characteristics include resistance to rain, dust, and temperature fluctuations. The fixture is not intended for high-mounting or large-area floodlighting applications.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Wall mounting is accomplished using standard hardware and electrical connections. The fixture?s compact size allows installation above doors, along walkways, and in service areas with limited wall space. The integrated photocell eliminates the need for separate controls or timers.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic cleaning and, if equipped, emergency battery testing. The polycarbonate lens resists yellowing and impact. The fixture is designed for direct replacement of 70W metal halide wall packs, reducing energy consumption and maintenance frequency.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 7 to 10 feet, providing effective illumination for walkways, entrances, and building perimeters. Spacing between fixtures is generally 15 to 25 feet, depending on required light levels and site geometry. The Type 5 distribution supports even coverage along building walls and adjacent pathways.

When using the emergency battery backup, code-compliant egress illumination is maintained during power loss. Spacing may be adjusted to balance fixture count with desired uniformity; closer spacing increases light levels but may raise installation costs.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed and IP65 rated. The housing and lens materials are non-corrosive and suitable for exterior use. The emergency battery backup meets standard egress lighting requirements.

A 5-year warranty covers all components under normal operating conditions. The fixture is designed for safe, reliable operation in commercial and multifamily exterior environments.
