2 Central Emergency & Standby System
NO 10 SECOND STARTUP DELAY Paragraph of the Life Safety Code states that when changing to emergency power: “…a delay of not more than 10 seconds shall be permitted.” If a generator is not able to supply full power in less than 10 seconds, an auxiliary power source must be provided. To avoid leaving people in darkness for up to 10 seconds, other lighting backup may be needed. Typical unit equipment is unsightly, difficult to maintain, and inverters are expensive. The CES will deliver emergency power to an entire building immediately following power failure

3 Central Emergency & Standby System
FULL BACKUP FOR EMERGENCY LIGHTING IF A GENERATOR FAILS When the generator is running, the system draws a small charge from the generator and CES batteries remain fully charged. Emergency lights operate in STANDBY MODE , providing constant 1Fc along the path of egress. Should the generator fail at any time, the CES is always ready to supply 90 minutes of emergency lighting power throughout the building.

4 Central Emergency & Standby System
NO AUTOMATIC LOAD CONTROL RELAYS (ALCR) REQUIRED FOR NORMAL LIGHTING ALCR’s are required to allow emergency fixtures to be turned OFF when not required for normal lighting. If ALCR is not installed, fixtures will operate at constant full power 24/7. ALCR’s also require an additional unswitched AC circuit to each fixture to sense utility power loss, as well as the emergency input circuit and the switched AC circuit. With the CES, general lighting can be installed with a single switchable circuit, with lighting controls as required.

STORAGE BATTERIES ARE EASILY MAINTAINED CES batteries are easy to access and can be maintained at a fraction of the cost of any other battery storage system, such as unit equipment or inverters. Every CES panel is supplied with automatic self-testing diagnostics so the status of batteries is constantly updated and readily available to the user.

8 General Lighting Fixtures
Central Emergency & Standby System MOONLITE LED™ FIXTURES ARE OPTIMIZED FOR EMERGENCY LIGHTING General lighting fixtures are designed for ambient lighting with circular or wide oval lighting patterns that are not optimized for illuminating along the path of egress. MOONLITE LED fixtures have elongated lighting patterns, and operate at much less power, requiring less total fixtures and lower emergency power required. Lamp maintenance of general lighting fixtures is less critical when these fixtures are not required for emergency lighting. Moonlite LED General Lighting Fixtures

9 Local Branch Circuit Monitoring
The LCM can monitor the status of up to eight (8) branch circuits. If any monitored circuit breaker is opened, a signal will be sent to a CBS or CES panel to activate emergency lighting. Enables compliance with NFPA Life Safety Code 101 (2009), Para
