EMERGENCY LIGHTING
Emergency lighting systems spring to life any time normal artificial
lighting systems fail. Emergency lighting is designed to ensure that
work can continue without risk, that staff can safely leave any
workplaces involving special hazards and that there is sufficient
lighting to illuminate rescue paths/routes as well as to avoid panic
situations.
As power cuts result in a risk to safety, legislation has been enacted in
the form of the Health and Safety at Work Directive (Europe) and the
Health and Safety at Work Acts of the individual European countries
(e.g. Germany), all of which stipulate that emergency lighting must be
provided. The requirements placed on emergency lighting installed in
places of public assembly and public buildings are governed by
supplementary directives and laws.
Vossloh-Schwabe's emergency lighting units are designed for use
with T5, T8 and compact fluorescent lamps and can be operated with
electromagnetic or electronic ballasts.
VS emergency lighting units are suitable for both continuous and
standby circuits with a nominal operating period of 1 or 3 hours.
