Emergency exit light in French (“Sortie”), 120V with battery, meets CSA. Steel casing, simple or double face.

"Sortie" Emergency Exit Light 120 V With Battery, Steel Casing

This AimLite "Sortie" emergency exit light marks an emergency exit with red text in a sturdy white steel casing. Compliant with the CSA standard, it includes an internal battery that takes over during a power failure, without depending on an external back-up supply. The sign is lit by very low-consumption, long-life LED bulbs.

It includes two sliding faceplates with the "Sortie" cut-out, for single-face (wall) or double-face (ceiling) installation. Each plate is held by a screw and fitted with pre-cut directional arrows, to be punched out as needed.

Power Supply and Back-Up Autonomy

The sign runs on a 120 V 60 Hz or 347 V supply and includes an internal battery. During a power failure, this battery keeps the lighting on for 90 minutes. The LED bulbs ensure minimal consumption.
