Emergency lighting leader Legrand has launched a tamper resistant SecurIT LED Exit Sign for institutional environments and correctional facilities. The product complements its broader offering of specialised exit signage to suit a range of unique environments.
“Clear and visible communication is essential for smooth emergency evacuation. A one-size fits all approach is rarely suitable for emergency evacuation products,” said Mahmoud Kebbi, category manager for commercial and emergency lighting at HPM Legrand. “Evacuation signage should be specified for the precise requirements of a building to ensure it is always visible and the potential for damage is minimised.”
In addition to streamlining evacuation, installing appropriate exit signage helps to minimise call-back time for contractors and maintenance requirements for facility managers.
The SecurIT LED Exit Sign has been specifically designed for prisons, correctional facilities, detention centres, police stations and psychiatric wards. It features an unbreakable flexible thermo plastic diffuser, which cannot be used as a weapon if dislodged. Anti-tamper Resitork screws prevent the removal of the sign, while a thick 6mm interior cover prevents entry to electronic components and LEDs. Four watt LEDs deliver up to 50,000 hours of light, reducing the need for regular maintenance.
Legrand has also added a new Large LED Exit Sign to its offering. Designed for easy viewing from up to 60 metres away, it complements the existing 32 and 48 metre viewing distance signs. These are ideal for large shopping centres, entertainment venues and industrial applications. Ceiling and wall installation options are available to meet various application requirements, and 5.6 watt LEDs deliver up to 50,000 hours of light. An auto-disconnect terminal block provides added safety. The terminal block is quick to connect for simple installation and auto-disconnects for added safety.
Legrand’s award-winning Edgelight LED Exit Signs are a premium and versatile solution delivering a sleek and modern aesthetic for office buildings and public spaces. Winner of a 2015 Good Design Award and a Commendation Award from the Illuminating Engineering Society of New South Wales, this exit sign is designed to deliver unobtrusive high performance. Recessed and surface mounting allows for flexible installation to suit wall, ceiling and sloped applications, while locally designed and manufactured LED strips and electronics guarantee premium quality.
All products can be installed as individual signs or networked with Legrand’s wireless emergency lighting system, AXIOM.
