HID Emergency lighting

[ron]

I've specified the Bodine arc keeper for 277V HID lighting to keep the arc going until I can get the gen started.
Does anyone know of a similar product for 480V?

restrike kits don't qualify for emergency lighting ? (that's only thing I've used on HID)

nakulak,
You mean like a quartz re-strike?

This particular application is an existing fixture. It would be impossible to retrofit with quartz re-strike.

BTW, if it puts out sufficient light, why couldn't a quartz re-strike be for EM lighting?

 

[nakulak]

ok, I see, didn't know you were retrofitting. (that's why I was wondering why you weren't using restrikes).

Don't know of anything other than a Lighting UPS, which I'm sure is more expensive than you were hoping for...

Do you know of a 480V emergency lighting inverter?

Lithonia EAC family and Dual Lite Trident TRN are two examples...
