T5 HF (High Frequency) emergency modules are 3-hour backup units designed to convert 16mm diameter (T5) fluorescent luminaires into emergency lighting. They feature high-frequency ballasts for flicker-free operation, 4-pole switching, and deep discharge protection. Common in commercial settings, these modules often include a 5th pole for ballast isolation during emergencies.

Key Features and Specifications:

Function: Provides 3 hours of illumination during power failures.

Compatibility: Designed for T5 fluorescent lamps, with specific modules covering 11W to 54W ranges.

Technical Details: Includes a 4-pole changeover relay and a 5th pole for isolation.

Battery: Uses NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries, often with a 4-year life.

Performance: Offers instant starting, reduced energy consumption (20-30%), and silent operation.

Protection: Often used in IP65 or IP66 rated, corrosion-resistant, or anti-corrosive fittings for harsh environments.
