Self-Contained Emergency Light Luminaires
The MEL209CD3 self-contained emergency light has a modern and compact design with 3 main functions to offer users maximum value.
1. With the Light Detector function (pending patent number 1803002688), if during power outages the unit detects that the brightness in the area is higher than 5 Lux it will not turn on. This will help to conserve the unit’s battery for use when it is necessary.
2. The Battery Checker function (patent number 16653) will warn the user to charge the battery if it has not been charged in a long time or if its charge falls below 70%.
3. The Low Voltage Sound indicator will warn the user that the battery is low on charge and the unit’s lamp is about to turn off.
The casing is produced from 1mm thick Electro-Galvanized steel coated with Epoxy powder and special chemicals to prevent any rust from forming.
