The IOTA ILB CP18 HE CW LP64 is a compact, high-efficiency LED emergency driver that allows a single LED fixture to perform seamlessly in both normal and emergency lighting conditions. During standard operation, the fixture functions through its normal LED driver. However, in the event of a power failure, the ILB CP18 HE CW LP64 automatically switches to its internal emergency power mode, supplying up to 18 watts of constant output to the connected LED array for a full 90 minutes. This ensures uninterrupted, code-compliant illumination during emergencies, making it an ideal solution for maintaining visibility and safety in critical egress areas.
This model integrates a charger and converter circuit within a reduced-profile, galvanized steel housing, complemented by a separate flexible LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery pack. The two-part battery design enhances installation flexibility, allowing the battery to be mounted in various positions or compartments within a fixture. The LiFePO₄ battery is maintenance-free, lightweight, and engineered for long service life, with a recharge time of 24 hours after full discharge. The unit is activated via a connector and incorporates an IP67-rated single-piece test switch and charge indicator for easy verification and manual life safety testing.
Delivering 18 watts of constant power across a nominal voltage range of 20–58 VDC, the ILB CP18 HE CW LP64 ensures steady illumination throughout the entire emergency runtime without degradation in brightness. Its auto-sensing, Class 2 compliant circuitry automatically adjusts to a wide range of forward voltage LED configurations, supporting versatility across different luminaire designs. The driver’s performance is optimized for ambient temperatures between -20°C and 60°C, making it suitable for outdoor pathways, cold storage environments, and other challenging applications where consistent performance under temperature extremes is critical.
The ILB CP18 HE CW LP64 meets stringent regulatory standards, including UL 1310 certification and compliance with NEC, IBC, and NFPA 101 Life Safety Code emergency lighting requirements. It is approved for use in both switched and unswitched fixtures and rated for damp locations, as well as enclosed and gasketed luminaires with IP67 protection. Environmentally conscious construction ensures RoHS compliance, while a three-year warranty supports long-term reliability. Operating on a universal input voltage of 120–277 VAC at 50/60 Hz, this emergency LED driver combines safety, adaptability, and durability—making it a dependable component for maintaining continuous illumination in commercial, industrial, and architectural lighting systems.
