PALS™ -
Addressable Emergency Lighting |
||
 |
Regular
testing and maintenance of emergency lighting systems is essential and
is now a legal requirement in many countries. It is possible to carry
out testing manually but this can be expensive and time consuming and
accurate reports of test results and system events. It ensures,building
owners and occupiers are informed promptly of any problems effecting
the emergency lighting system and as the system can be networked and
remotely accessed, off site monitoring also becomes an option. |
|
Key
features include: |
||
 |
Each PALS
panel is fully expandable from 1 to 5 loops using plug-in line drivers |
|
|
126 devices can be supported by each line driver card allowing one panel to monitor and test 360 devices | |
|
A total of 95 PALS panels can then be networked to allow a total system size of 58,850 devices | |
|
A range of interface
units allow the system to operate with most types of emergency luminaires
including self-contained, central battery and static inverter systems |
|
|
User friendly software
with auto device learn and data loop status for trouble free setting
up, commisioning and fault finding |
|
|
Constant communication with luminaires to prove system integrity | |
|
Reports charger or mains supply failure within 60 seconds of the event | |
|
Loops, zones and luminaires can be disabled to carry out maintenance work | |
|
Carries
out daily, weekly, quarterly and annual tests - fully automatically - or
to customers requirements |
|
|
Full
system and luminaires test can be manually activated at any time |
|
|
Reports luminaire number, location and nature of the fault detected | |
|

power supplies on the panel to maintain memory if power fails |
|
|
Designed to fail safe whatever event occurs | |
|
