Zumtobel LED Emergency Lights Redefine Escape Route, Anti-panic and Safety Lighting

Abstract: The Resclite Pro LED solution from Zumtobel adds an extra dimension to emergency lighting. The smart emergency LED luminaire is equipped with sophisticated optics and control circuits to deliver high performance escape route lighting, anti-panic lighting, and spotlighting while offering exceptional design aesthetics.

LED Emergency Light

The Zumtobel Resclite Pro Series emergency LED luminaires deliver the ultimate solution to managing emergency lighting in all commercial, industrial and architectural environments. Incorporating the best practices of emergency luminaire design and engineering with cutting-edge LED technology, Resclite Pro embraces a whole new level of discipline that requires innovative design, lifetime compliance with regulations, and flexible installation options. Featuring sophisticated photometry, long-lasting LEDs, maintenance-free batteries and high reliability electronic circuits, Resclite Pro is ideally equipped for escape route lighting, anti-panic lighting, and spotlighting of safety-critical objects.

The Resclite Pro family encompasses three flexibly mountable models including Resclite Pro Escape, Resclite Pro Antipanic and Resclite Pro Spot. Thanks to innovative, precision engineered optics, Resclite Pro guides people in an emergency safer and smarter than ever before while contributing to an unobtrusive luminaire appearance that ensures the integrity of architectural or interior designs. These state-of-the-art optics are optimized to ensure optimum distribution, maximize spacing and provide high illuminance levels. These luminaires come standard with a 4.7W LED engine. A higher output version which uses an 8.2W LED engine is available for high intensity illumination.

Zumtobel Emergency LED Luminaire

The Resclite Pro Escape LED luminaire is designed to provide adequate illuminance according to the EN 1838 standard on the central floor axis, thereby contributing to a safe evacuation from an area during power outages. These escape route luminaires are available in four light distributions to provide optimal visual conditions and direction finding on escape routes in various locations. The Escape 90° optics which direct the light around the corner are perfect for installation in shops and retail facilities where side and shelf aisles must be illuminated simultaneously. The escape corridor optics create linear forward light projection to ensure very long escape routes are illuminated with a minimum number of luminaries. The Escape wall optics enable recessed wall luminaire to inconspicuously illuminate escape routes in stairwells or high-ceiling rooms. The Escape high ceiling optics are designed to accommodate installation heights of up to 23m, which is typical of racked/aisle environments such as logistics centers and warehouses.

The Resclite Pro Antipanic illuminates very large areas with a high level of uniformity to prevent the spread of panic in emergencies and to enable safe movement of occupants to reach an escape route. This open area emergency luminaire is equipped with flood optics which produce square light distribution for anti-panic emergency lighting. With the high output version which incorporates a 8.2W LED engine, either higher flux density at floor level can be achieved to meet code requirement in some countries (e.g. 2 lx in Italy) or an impressively wide luminaire spacing of up to 22m can be accomplished for standard installations in accordance with EN 1838 which specifies a 0.5 lx minimum illuminance. The Resclite Pro Antipanic has a high ceiling (HC) ceiling version which manages to illuminate large rooms over a wide area from a ceiling height of up to 33m.

Resclite Pro Spot is intended to be installed anywhere emergency lighting with higher illuminance is needed for visibility of emergency aid facilities such as first-aid boxes, fire extinguishers and alarm stations that require particular attention according to EN 1838. The asymmetric optics of this spotlight delivers maximal amount of lumens to a vertical surface (minimum illuminance 5 lx) for high intensity wall washing from a mounting height of up to 6m. The rotating light heads flexibly adjust to a range of spatial requirements.

The Resclite Pro Escape, Antipanic and Spot emergency luminaires are offered in both recessed and surface mount options. Additionally the Escape is also available as a wall-mounted luminaire. The recessed emergency luminaires are designed with a 68mm ceiling aperture. The mini version features a 50mm ceiling aperture which facilitates seamless integration into architecture. The discrete Resclite Pro LED modules can be integrated into Zumtobel's TECTON and TRINOS trunking systems which offer a highly integrated, flexible lighting solution for modern commercial and industrial facilities such as open offices, supermarkets, retail stores, warehouses, libraries, and assembly lines.

Zumtobel Emergency Lighting

Combining aesthetics, efficiency, performance and reliability, Resclite Pro brings peace of mind to facility managers, electrical contractors and specifiers while addressing sensitive aesthetic requirements from architects and lighting designers. The luminaire is built to comply with the latest codes and performance standards including EN 1838, UNI EN 50172 and NFPA 101. 2 high power LEDs with a nominal CCT of 4000K deliver high lumen density for exceptional beam control and high efficacy lighting. A high efficiency heat sink draws heat away from the junction of the diodes, thereby preventing LED thermal degradation for optimal light output and color stability over the rated L90 lifetime well beyond 50,000 hours. The injection molded optics are made of impact resistant, UV stabilized polycarbonate lens. The rugged luminaire housing is constructed from die cast aluminum and electrostatically applied, thermally cured with a durable layer of polyester powder for superior resistance to corrosion and abrasion to maintain its long-lasting beauty. Alongside the IP40 version, an IP65 housing option ensures added protection against dust and water ingress which often poses a challenge for deployment in industrial buildings.

The Resclite Pro can be used in maintained mode and in non-maintained mode. The self-contained emergency luminaire is equipped with an environmentally friendly, high-temperature rated nickel-metal hydride technology (NiMh) or lithium-ion (LiIon) battery to provide 1-hour or 3-hour emergency duration. Resclite Pro is also available for eBox and CPS central battery systems which can be circuit-monitored or communicated via DALI (ECD) or Powerline (ECP). The luminaire can be dimmed between 15%-100% lumen output in mains operation. An integrated LED Driver with automatic test functions meet various testing and inspection algorithms. The luminaire can also be connected to a central monitoring system via a DALI control circuit. Thanks to the new PROset technology from ZGS (Zumtobel Group Services), Resclite Pro can be addressed and configured wirelessly via the dedicated PROset smartphone app using NFC (Near Field Communication) technology.
