The ORTUS-W exit sign is engineered to meet the demands of challenging environments, making it a reliable choice for various applications. Its robust housing features high ingress protection and enhanced mechanical impact resistance, which makes it ideal for use in sports facilities, shopping centers, industrial sites, and public buildings. Additionally, the luminaire’s design allows it to perform well in outdoor conditions or when installed at significant mounting heights, expanding its versatility across many safety-critical locations.
Constructed from self-extinguishing polycarbonate, the housing is available in white or black and can withstand flammability tests up to 850⁰C, ensuring durability and safety under harsh conditions. The ORTUS-W exit sign complies with key emergency lighting standards including EN 1838 and EN 50172 for emergency safety sign lighting, and EN 60598-2-22 for escape route emergency lighting, supporting safety signage in accordance with ISO 7010.
The emergency system options include compatibility with central battery supply versions (Z and ZA), as well as standard (S), self-test (ST), and DALI addressable versions, providing flexibility for integration into various building safety systems. Power is supplied by advanced LiFePO4 lithium batteries, which represent the cutting edge in rechargeable battery technology. These lithium-based batteries offer long service life, high efficiency, and reliable performance, benefiting from ongoing technological advancements initially driven by electric vehicle research.
The exit sign itself features uniform illumination powered by numerous low-power LEDs, producing luminance levels of 100 or 500 cd/m² and ensuring clear visibility up to 25 meters. Safety sign labels are ordered separately, with a range of sign options available as accessories to meet specific site requirements. Wiring connections are made via 3- or 5-pole, 2.5 mm² through-wiring terminal blocks, simplifying installation and wiring continuity in emergency lighting circuits.
Overall, the ORTUS-W exit sign combines rugged construction, compliance with stringent standards, and advanced battery technology to deliver dependable emergency lighting solutions suitable for demanding indoor and outdoor environments.
