TL;DR

A central fire emergency lighting system on a C-1812 controller, with DC24/36 V exit signs, downlights and dual-head fixtures, 90-minute backup and automatic test logging. Central battery means one tested source instead of a self-contained battery in every fitting.

Overview

What this platform is built to do.

The fire emergency lighting system combines a central power supply, an emergency lighting controller, and the luminaires and exit signs. The controller monitors the fixtures, runs the monthly and annual tests, and keeps the evacuation path lit when the normal supply fails.

The system uses DC24 V or DC36 V fixtures and a central battery/controller cabinet. The C-1812 controller manages the circuits and the test log; the luminaires include exit signs, emergency downlights, and dual-head fixtures.

The system is specified by the building’s fire strategy and the local code. Share the floor plan, the egress routes, the fixture count, and the required backup duration for a layout and a bill of materials.

FAQ

Emergency lighting: project questions.

Project-specific answers. If your question is not here, send the load list and the site conditions.

Talk to an engineer

Is the controller the same as an EPS?

No. The controller manages the emergency lighting circuits and the test log; the EPS or central battery supplies the backup power. The two are coordinated in the system design.

What backup duration is required?

The standard is often 90 minutes, but the local fire code sets the requirement. Confirm the duration before sizing the central battery.

Can the system use existing fixtures?

Only if the fixtures match the DC voltage and the controller’s monitoring protocol. Mixing incompatible fixtures can break the circuit monitoring.

Do you provide the layout?

We provide the system and fixture schedule. The layout is normally prepared by the MEP consultant or the fire-system designer; we can review it for compatibility.

Is the system certified?

The components are supplied with model datasheets and test documents. The fire-system approval is issued by the local authority; confirm the destination standard.
