Lux Box 41-24-0486

In the whole battery market, from big energy storage for photovoltaic systems and electric vehicles to small handheld devices, there is a movement from well-known technologies, which were used for decades, to the relatively new lithium based technologies.

The main benefits of lithium based technologies are a very high energy density, and a long lifetime up to twice that of the NiCd or NiMH
batteries.

When using lithium batteries there are some points that have to be considered. There have been reports about possible risks of the lithium technology, which are mostly caused by the chemical reactivity of some lithium technologies.

Characteristics:

• Suited for high temperature operation (up to 55 °C)
• Design life: 4 years at 55 °C – 8 years at 35 °C

• Storage time: up to 12 months from production date
• Higher energy density than NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Non-critical to the environment – no heavy metal content

Lux Box (part of the KAMIC Group) designs and manufactures emergency lighting components for the OEM and commercial lighting markets. Their product catalogue features DALI-compliant inverters, LiFePO4 batteries, emergency conversion kits, and twinspots used to upgrade standard mains luminaires into compliant emergency lighting.

Key Details & Locations

Operations & Manufacturing: They maintain a UK facility in Fakenham, Norfolk and a 25,000 sq ft manufacturing plant in Switzerland with automated production lines.

Core Technologies: Their emergency drivers (like the LC or LEQX ranges) are fully integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS) and are designed to convert existing standard lights into emergency extensions.

Sustainability: Lux Box transitioned its battery range entirely to Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4), which offers longer operational lifespans and drastically reduces standby power consumption compared to older NiCd/NiMH tech.
