Emergency fire luminaires are designed to provide illumination in the event of a fire to facilitate the safe evacuation of occupants from a building. The following are some of the characteristics of emergency fire luminaires:
Functionality: Emergency luminaires should be designed to operate during a power failure or other emergency and should provide sufficient illumination to enable occupants to see and evacuate the building safely.
Durability: Emergency luminaires need to be durable enough to withstand the harsh conditions of a fire emergency, including exposure to heat, smoke and water.
Visibility: Emergency luminaires need to be clearly visible and easily identifiable, even in smoke-filled environments.
Battery backup: Emergency lighting luminaires should be equipped with a battery backup system capable of providing sufficient power to the luminaires for a minimum of 1-3 hours, depending on local code requirements.
Maintenance: Emergency luminaires should be designed for easy maintenance and testing, with clear instructions for periodic testing and inspection.
Compliance: Emergency luminaires should comply with local and national codes and standards such as NFPA 101, IBC and OSHA to ensure their effectiveness in emergency situations.
Redundancy: For added reliability, emergency luminaires should be installed in redundant configurations, with multiple units providing illumination if one or more luminaires fail.
