Lead Calcium=18W for 1 1/2 hrs.; 15W for 2 hrs.

Lead Calcium=27W for 1 1/2 hrs.; 24W for 2 hrs.

Nickel Cadmium=15W for 1 1/2 hrs.; 12W for 2 hrs.

Two F6T5 fluorescent lamps

provide long life and normal

mode illumination of the 

lens. Two 6V, 6W DC lamps

illuminate the face panel in 

the emergency mode.

The Sure-Lites UMX Series

incorporates a rugged

enclosure of moisture and

corrosion resistant industrial

grey fiberglass with a durable

polycarbonate lens. Housing 

is fully gasketed. A breather

vent permits ventilation of

internal pressure from gases

released by charging batteries.

UMX Series Exits are suitable

for surface mounting onl y. Wet

Location Listed for operation in

ambient temperatures above

32°F. Optional Thermal Heater 

available to facilitate use 

in unheated areas where 

battery performance would 

be diminished due to low 

temperature operation.

Sure Lites’ line-latched

electronic circuitry makes

installation easy and

economical. A labor efficient

AC activated load switch

prevents the lamps from turnin g

on during installation to a

non-energized AC circuit.

Line-latching eliminates th e

need for a contractor’s return

to a job site to connect the

batteries when the buildin g’s

main power is turned on.

Supplied with a 120/277  VAC,

voltage regulated solid-state

charger. Immediately upon

restoration of AC current after 

a power failure, the charger

provides a high charge rate.

The charge circuit reacts to the

condition of the battery and

alters the rate of charge in

order to maintain peak battery

capacity and maximize battery

life. Solid-state construction

recharges the battery following

a power failure in accordance

with UL 924.

The solid-state overload

monitoring device in the DC

circuit disconnects the lamp

load from the battery should

excessive wattage demands 

be made and automatically

resets when the overload or

short circuit is removed. This

overload current protective

feature eliminates the need 

for fuses or circuit breakers 

for the DC load.

The brownout circuit on Sure-

Lites’ exits monitors the flow 

of AC current to the exit and

activates the emergency

lighting system when a

predetermined reduction of 

AC power occurs. This dip 

in voltage will cause most

ballasted fixtures to extinguish

causing loss of normal lighting

even though a total power

failure has not occurred.

The UMX Exit incorporates

solid-state switching which

eliminates corroded and pitted

contacts or mechanical failures

associated with relays. The

switching circuit is designed to

detect a loss of AC voltage and

automatically energizes the

lamps. Upon restoration of 

AC power, the emergency

lamps will switch off and the

charger will automatically

recharge the battery.

Conveniently located rubber

booted Test Switch allows for

manual verification of proper

operation of the transfer circuit

and emergency lamps. A sealed

light emitting diode (Power

Indicator Light) provides visual

assurance that the AC power 

is on.

The fully sealed, long-life, 

maintenance-free, lead calcium

battery is ideal for emergency

lighting applications. These

batteries typically provide 8 to

10 years of life and may be

operated in any position.

Sure-Lites’ sealed nickel 

cadmium batteries are 

maintenance-free with a life

expectancy of 15 years. The

sealed rechargeable nickel 

cadmium battery offers high

discharge rates and stable 

performance over a wide range

of temperatures. The specially

designed resealable vent

automatically controls cell

pressure, assuring safety and

reliability. This battery is best

suited for harsh ambient

temperatures because the

electrolyte is not active in the

electrochemical process.

All Sure-Lites’ products are

backed by a firm one-year

warranty against defets in

material and workmanship

(excluding lamps). Maintenance-

free, long-life, sealed lead

calcium batteries carry a 

five-year, pro-rata warrant y.

Maintenance-free, long-life,

sealed nickel cadmium batteries

carry a fifteen-year pro-rata

warranty.
