A stylish and compact suspended Single/Double Sided LED Exit Sign that can be surface mounted. The unit is available in either a Switchable Maintained/NonMaintained, DALI-2 Self-Test, or a LiteMesh ready wireless version. The unit comes with a PMMA legend which offers an impressive 30m viewing distance.

The luminaire is supplied with a pack of inlay panels which includes Arrow Down (AD), Arrow Left (AL), Arrow Right (AR) and Arrow up (AU). The charger will cut-off if the Tc of the battery falls below 0 degrees C or above 55 degrees C. The product will however operate when required in emergency, should there be enough capacity remaining in the battery.

Suspended exit signs are ceiling-mounted, often edge-lit LED, or blade-style signage designed for high visibility in commercial spaces, retail areas, and hallways with high ceilings. They are ideal when wall mounting is impractical, offering a modern aesthetic while ensuring clear, often double-sided, direction-marking during evacuations.

Key Features and Benefits

Optimal Visibility: Suspended designs, such as those shown on Emergency Lighting, hang at a lower, more visible height.

Modern Aesthetics: Often feature a sleek, slimline “blade” design with acrylic panels and aluminium housings.

Double-Sided: Most models, like the ones available on Safety Signs 4 Less, allow for viewing from both directions.

Versatile Installation: They use adjustable wire suspension or chain kits to adapt to different ceiling heights.

Technical Specifications

Illumination: High-output LED, frequently offering 3-hour emergency backup run time.

Compliance: These signs comply with standards such as BS EN ISO 7010 for safe condition signs.

Operation: Available in maintained (always on) or non-maintained (on during power failure) modes.

Optional Features: Self-testing or DALI-compatible (digitally addressable lighting interface) options exist for automated maintenance checks.
