INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
EMERGENCY FLUORESCENT BATTERY PACK
MODEL PS300, PSQ500, PS600, PS1400
CAUTION: For safety and proper operation, read and follow instructions carefully before installation.
FIELD INSTALLABLE FLUORESCENT BATTERY
PACK IS UNIVERSALLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE
BALLASTS AND OPERATING LAMP(S) IN THE
LAMP COMPATIBILITY TABLE (PAGE 3).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Make sure that branch circuit feeds are derived from
a common phase for both normal lighting ballast and
Battery Pack prior to installation.
Notice: To ensure proper grounding, mount unit only
with metal cutting screws (not provided).
Patent#: 6,522,147
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1.READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2. Before wiring to power supply, turn off electricity at fuse
or circuit breaker.
3. Do not disconnect the wire harness with AC power
present. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect AC power and unplug test switch/pilot light
connector before servicing.
4. All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel.
5. Consult your local building code for approved wiring
and installation.
6. Do not use standard product outdoors. This product is
for use with indoor fixtures sealed or unsealed, except
air handling heated outlets or hazardous location
applications.
7. The emergency ballast must be connected to an
unswitched AC power source (120 or 277).
8. Do not mount near gas or electric heater.
9. Do not attempt to service the battery. A sealed nomaintenance battery is used that is not field replaceable.
Contact manufacturer for service information.
10.Equipment should be mounted in location and at heights
where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by
unauthorized personnel.
11.The use of accessory equipment not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
12.Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
The Battery Pack can be used with a switched or
unswitched (night) circuit. When used with a switched
fixture it is important to note that the power to the
Battery Pack must be provided by an unswitched
circuit.
APPROXIMATE WORKING VOLTAGE
Battery Pack input: 120 OR 277V AC
CAUTION:
A potential electrical shock hazard exists even
when AC power supply has been turned off.
Disconnect polarized Test Switch/Pilot Light
connector before servicing fixture. Do not
remove the wire harness connector when AC
power is present.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
as local codes require, or at least quarterly to insure that all
components are operational. Perform all test required by local
codes.
1. Check equipment rating to be sure that fixture will receive

check to see that:
A. Test Switch/Pilot Light Connector is connected.
B. AC power is on and wire harness is fully engaged
into battery pack power connector .
C. Voltage on branch circuit to Battery Pack is rated
at line voltage (120V or 277V). If no line voltage can be
measured, locate problem in branch circuit and correct.
models) or two (PS600 and PS1400 only) fluorescent
lamps should be operating at a reduced light output.
INSTALLATION
1. Turn off AC Power. Inspect Battery Pack and make sure
the Test Switch/Pilot Light Connector and wire harness
connector are both disconnected. If still connected,
disconnect them before installation.
2. Position unit in fixture wireway and fasten securely
through keyed slots or Mounting Holes or Slots . If
necessary, drill holes and mount with metal cutting
screws (not provided).
3. Attach and fully engage the wire harness connector to
the battery pack power connector .
CAUTION:
Connector must be fully engaged and latched before AC
power is applied.
4. Refer to appropriate wiring diagram. Connect unit to
ballast and lamp(s) and A.C. power leads as indicated in
appropriate wiring diagram.
TEST SWITCH/PILOT LIGHT (TS/PL)
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
Do not locate Test Switch/Pilot Light or route cable within
1” of fixture lamps.
NOTE: If pilot light is not visible outside the fixture lens, there
is a charge indicator sticker located in pre-pack that should
be placed on the flat side of the lens directly below the test
switch pilot light to identify it as an emergency fixture.
NOTE: Allow battery to charge 24 hours before initial testing
and 72 hours to fully charge battery.
NOTE: Battery packs are not field serviceable units.
CAUTION:
Damage to battery will occur if Test Switch/Pilot Light
connection is made for a prolonged period of time
without AC power provided.
CAUTION:
Connecting the Test Switch/Pilot Light Connector also
connects the battery to the inverter circuit which can
result in high voltage being present between the output
leads.
1.
Drill or punch a 1/2” diameter hole in fixture wall or wireway cover.
2. Insert one side of TS/PL into the hole from the back
and snap in the other side. Slide mounting clip firmly
onto mounting post to secure TS/PL assembly. Mark the
TS/PL location with the TS/PL label .

LAMP SELECTOR TABLE - PS1400 ONLY
NOTE: The PS1400 has a lamp selector switch which can be used to optimize performance when placed in
the “down” position. However, please note, based on your lamp configuration, the PS1400 can only be placed
in the “down” position if so designated in the lamp selector table.
WARNING:
Lamp Type/Switch Selector Combinations not listed in the lamp table could damage unit and void warranty.
Note: Lamp selector switch is located under perforated tab on product label. Battery pack shipped with switch
in “DOWN” position.
White button must be
removed before “Up”
position can be achieved
