Emergency lighting systems deserve special attention to assure code compliance and the safety of the applications' occupants. SIMKAR's Exit and Emergency fixtures along with our new Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts are integral to a well-designed emergency lighting system.
 Our EB Series Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts operate in conjunction with the fixture's AC ballast and provide instant emergency lighting when normal power fails. The EB Series can be retrofitted in, on top of, or remote mounted to existing fluorescent fixtures like troffers, wraparounds, channels, industrials and even decorative ceiling and wall fluorescents. Either installation provides a discreet source of emergency illumination.
Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts should be selected based upon the application, number of occupants, path of egress, time required to exit, and additional emergency lighting fixtures. SIMKAR's new series of Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts offer a choice of lumen output - 450, 700, and 1400 initial lumens - to fit almost any application. Consideration for the number of occupants is necessary, especially for healthcare, hotel and educational applications, where additional emergency illumination might be required for a safe evacuation. With a minimum of 90-minutes of emergency illumination, SIMKAR's Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts meet or exceed codes. UL approved, codecompliant, and backed with a 5-year warranty, SIMKAR's EB Series Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts offer safety and peace of mind for the installer and end-user.
