In the event that the electricity in your building or facility fails, this ballast will automatically switch to the emergency mode. The emergency runtime for the device is about 90 minutes and once power is restored the ballast begins to recharge on its own.

Suitable to be installed with fixtures in areas such as: Class I, Division II, indoor, damp locations and wet locations.
