PRODUCT OVERVIEW: The GTHDT series of industrial emergency lighting units are designed to be durable, dependable and easy to install. The fully gasketed NEMA 4x rated PVC housing can be used in most damp, wet, and hose down areas. The GTHDT has been designed with the PulseGuard pulse switching charger. The PulseGuard offers superior performance & energy efficiency versus conventional constant voltage chargers. Traditional top mounted Par36 style heads are standard.

CONSTRUCTION: The GTHDT series is constructed with a durable NEMA 4x rated PVC cabinet. Industrial gray finish is standard. Emergency lighting heads are molded from high impact thermoplastic, Par36 style heads are standard. Integrated mounting feet ensure proper and secure installation. The front access panel is hinged to allow for trouble free installation and maintenance. External test switch and monitor LED are standard.

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.
