Twin Spot Emergency Lights

Twin-spot emergency lights have two lamp heads mounted on a central battery and control housing. They switch to emergency operation if the normal supply fails and are used where a wider or more directional spread of emergency light is required.

When the normal supply fails, the battery powers the LED heads for the fitting's rated emergency duration. Emergency lumen output is usually lower than normal-lighting output, so product photometric data, mounting height and the emergency-lighting design should determine positioning.

The two adjustable heads allow light to be aimed towards separate routes, open areas or safety points from one housing. They should be set during commissioning using the emergency-lighting design. Pointing both heads in the same direction may leave another required area without enough light.

An IP65 LED twin-spot emergency light may suit exposed or dusty locations when the manufacturer permits that use. Check temperature limits, mounting position, cable entries and the effect of weather on the complete installation. IP65 alone does not confirm that every outdoor location is suitable.

Yes. Twin-spot emergency lights need routine functional checks and periodic full-duration tests, with results recorded. Manual-test and self-test models report status differently. Batteries have a finite service life and should be replaced when testing shows that the rated duration is no longer achieved.
