TESTING & MAINTENANCE
Pressing the TBTS turns off the light on the TBTS and forces the unit into emergency mode, interrupting power to the
designated A.C. driver. The LED load is now being lit by the ILB unit. After releasing the TBTS, the fixture returns to
normal operation after a momentary delay. To simulate a “BLACK OUT” use the circuit breaker to turn off A.C. power.
Initial Testing – Allow the unit to charge approximately 1 hour, then conduct a short discharge test. Allow a 24 hour
charge before conducting a one hour test.
The ILB is a maintenance free unit, however, periodic inspection and testing is required. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code,
outlines the following schedule:
Monthly – Insure that the TBTS light is illuminated. Conduct a 30 second discharge test by depressing the TBTS. At
least one LED should operate at reduced output.
Annually – Insure that the TBTS is illuminated. Conduct a full 90 minute discharge test. The unit should operate as
intended for the duration of the test.
“Written records of testing shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.”
SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
