The FNEL’s fiberglass construction is rated for use in NEMA 3, 4x, and 12 areas, which means that the unit can withstand dirt, rain, sleet, snow and other elements. The FNEL features multiple voltage and wattage configurations to suit your needs. Lead Calcium and Nickel Cadmium batteries provide dependable backup power in emergency circumstances. Illumination is provided via NEMA rated “Z” Series PAR 36 Halogen lamp heads. The FNEL is available from 25-180 watts. Self-testing diagnostics and internal heater are just two of the many additional options offered with the FNEL Series. UL 924 Listed.

CONSTRUCTION: Constructed of impact resistant, fiberglass reinforced polyester. Housing color is gray and includes stainless steel hardware. Housing is approved for NEMA 3, 4x, and 12 areas. View-through window allows easy monitoring of AC indicator and optional voltmeter and ammeter. Available with NEMA rated polycarbonate sealed beam Par 36 tungsten or halogen lamp heads. Optional shatter-resistant shield for lamp heads is designed for use in food service areas.

ILLUMINATION: Illumination is accomplished with lamp heads mounted on the top of the unit. The NEMA rated Par36 Series lamp head is available in a variety of wattages, and is gray polycarbonate to match the body housing.


BATTERY TECHNOLOGY: Maintenance free, sealed lead calcium or pure lead battery have an estimated service life of 5 years, and an operating temperature range of 65°F (19°C) to 85°F (30°C). Maintenance free, sealed nickel cadmium battery has an estimated service life of 10 years, and an operating temperature range of 20°F (-7°C) to 95°F (35°C). Batteries supply 90 minutes of emergency power.

INSTALLATION: Standard internal mounting or external mounting feet for installation flexibility. View-through window enables easy monitoring of AC indicator and optional metering. Polycarbonate sealed beam Par 36 lamp heads are NEMA rated and come in a variety of wattages.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Charger Type: dual voltage input with surge-protected, solid-state circuitry provides for a reliable charging system.
Utility Input: 120/277VAC, 60 Hz.
Temperature Range: For sealed lead calcium or pure lead battery, temperature range of 65°F (19°C) to 85°F (30°C). For sealed nickel cadmium battery, temperature range of 20°F (-7°C) to 95°F (35°C)
Recharge Duty Cycle: 24 hours
Load Transfer: A solid state transfer circuit provides load connection.
Controls: Momentary tETS switch and LED AC-On indicator light
Safety Circuitry: AC Lockout: Prevents battery discharge prior to initial unit power-up saving installation time.

Question : What is and do I need the battery backup option for my emergency light?
Answer : The battery backup option provides power to your emergency lights in case of a fire, earthquake, or other emergency that causes a power outage. You must have the battery backup model if you DO NOT have a generator that provides power to your facility in emergency circumstances.
Question : When do emergency lights come on?
Answer : Emergency lights turn on when power is lost to the facility. When equipped with a battery backup or supplied with electricity from a generator, Greentorch emergency lights will operate for a minimum of 90 minutes in emergency situations.
Question : Does this emergency light plug-in to a wall outlet?
Answer : No. Emergency lights have to be hard-wired into your electrical system to be building and fire code compliant. If you are looking for a 100% battery operated emergency light it does not exist because it is impossible to charge the battery for the light without a source of electricity. Batteries in emergency lights have a trickle charge, which means the battery uses a minute amount of electricity to stay charged incase of an emergency power outage.
Question : What does 120/277v mean?
Answer : 120/277 refers to the line voltage that the emergency light can operate on. 120 refers to residential and small commercial line voltage while 220 refers to commercial and office building line voltage. The main point is that our emergency lights will work in either situation so you don’t need to worry about the functionality. We recommend using a licensed electrician or maintenance professional to install the signs.
Question : Are there emergency lights with batteries that operate longer than 90 minutes in emergency power mode?
Answer : Yes, there are. The higher the wattage of the emergency lighting unit the longer the unit will operate in emergency power mode (while keeping the lamp head wattage constant). Please see our industrial line of emergency lights, which come with large batteries (up to 400 watts).
Question : What is remote head capability?
Answer : Remote head capability means that the emergency lighting unit has been equipped with a battery that is powerful enough to supply power remotely to individual lamp heads. The larger the battery, the more remote heads a unit can handle.

Our products typically carry a 5 year warranty though on certain items the warranty is longer. All products are guaranteed to be new, and free from defect. Batteries carry a 5 year prorated warranty.
