Pierborne offers the EMPV Mini Series to back up any 120V/277V device or fixture that needs to operate during a power failure. The Mini Series can provide 55 watts of power for 90 minutes, meeting UL924 requirements. Each unit is equipped with one (1) line voltage bypass, which can be turned on or off during normal power. Upon failure of the normal power, the fixture will automatically return to full output regardless of the position of the switch, dimmer, time clock, or line voltage device.
The EMPV Mini Series is available in Recessed, Surface or T-Grid housings. This system’s sinusoidal AC output design eliminates voltage drops and proximity concerns, therefore allowing the Mini to be installed up to 1,000 feet from the units that they power. True sinusoidal AC pulse width modulated (PWM) design provides clean 60Hz. emergency output.
This emergency power vault delivers reliable backup power for incandescent, fluorescent, and LED fixtures with intelligent design features that ensure compatibility and performance across all lighting technologies. The unit features universal 120/277VAC, 60Hz input/output operation with flexible Normally-ON and/or Normally-OFF load output options to meet diverse installation requirements.
The unique design eliminates compatibility problems with LED drivers as well as fluorescent ballasts, ensuring seamless integration with modern lighting systems. Soft Start technology reduces fixture inrush current to protect equipment and extend service life, while maintaining 100% of nominal lumen output from your fixtures. This means your lighting performs at full brightness during emergency conditions without compromise.
The temperature compensated, dual-mode charger includes a low voltage disconnect feature to provide protection against battery deep discharge, ensuring long battery life and reliable performance. The battery circuit is fuse protected with reverse battery and AC lockout protection for comprehensive safety. Local switching capability is built in, with Always-ON operation during emergency conditions regardless of local switch position, ensuring code compliance and occupant safety.
The control panel features a momentary test switch along with AC-ON, Charge-ON, and Inverter-ON LED indicators, making it simple to verify system status and perform routine testing. These visual indicators provide at-a-glance confirmation that your emergency power system is ready when needed.
Perfect for commercial, industrial, and architectural lighting installations requiring reliable emergency backup power with universal compatibility and advanced protection features. Surface mount models are designed for mounting to walls by means of keyhole slots provided in the back of the unit housing.
Full coverage warranty on units (excluding lamps) against defects in materials and workmanship for 3 years from date of shipment and 3 year warranty on Lead-Acid Batteries. All models are UL924 Listed and meet NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, NEC, OSHA, Local and State Codes. Optional T-Grid models are plenum rated, to UL2043 and meets city of Chicago CCEA Requirements. UL Listed for damp locations (0°– 50°C for NiCad models and 20°- 30°C for lead-calcium models).
NOTE: Special Housing Colors Available Upon Request for an additional charge.
Mounting
Recess Mount: Recess models provide recess mounting holes on both sides of the enclosure.
Surface Mount: Surface mount models are designed for mounting to walls by means of keyhole slots provided in the back of the unit housing.
T-Grid Mount: Housing design allows simple drop-in installation between t-grid runs. Safety wires (supplied by others) are required for attachment to building structure.
