Why Photoluminescent? Telglow Rigid has Lloyds Certification 0038/15 PROPERTIES USING TELSCAPE PRODUCTS Photoluminescent materials have been around for many years but it is only in the last couple of decades that their use has become widespread. The benefits of “glow in the dark” substrates that emit light independent of direct electrical 0038/15 input are obvious, and these products have been seized upon by the safety sign industry for their simplicity and effectiveness as a means of directing people away from danger in times of power failure. The use of photoluminescent signage has been mandated in the marine industry since the early 1990’s but the events of the 9/11 terrorist attacks of 2001 led to a wave of legislation regarding its use in land applications. Reports from fire crews attending the World Trade Centre indicated that the use of photoluminescent paint in the emergency stairwells contributed to the fast and effective evacuation of thousands of people when other systems had failed. The message was clear; photoluminescent products saved people’s lives. WOOLPACK HOUSE Standards The following standards are those most relevant to TELGLOW for use in terrestrial applications. BS ISO 16069:2017 Graphical Symbols – Safety Signs – Safety way guidance systems (SWGS) HARDINGTON A safety way guidance system coordinates a complex range of safety products in order to provide a continuous and conspicuous, unbroken route to safety that allows people to evacuate occupied areas with minimum risk. ISO 16069 indicates when and where it is appropriate to use photoluminescent materials as part of an SWGS and defines minimum performance requirements for this application. DIN 67510 Phosphorescent Pigments and Products This German standard is the industry norm for the measurement and assessment of photoluminescent products. DIN 67510 Part 1 defines a method where samples are exposed for 5 minutes to a Xenon light source delivering 1000lux of light energy. The light is extinguished and the afterglow measured in millicandella’s per m² (mcd/m²) at defined time intervals, until extinction is achieved at a level of 0.32 mcd/m². DIN 67510 Part 4 defines performance levels and is used by ISO16069 to specify minimum performance requirements. When tested to DIN 67510-1 the photoluminescent must have a minimum luminance, after withdrawal of the excitation light source, of 20 mcd/² at 10 minutes, 2.8 mcd/² at 60 minutes and a minimum time to 0.32mcd/m² of 340 minutes. This information is usually annotated as follows: 20/2.8 – 340 / DIN67510-1. CHESHIRE HOUSE SHROPSHIRE HOUSE
