COOPER LIGHTING - SURE-LITES
DESCRIPTION
Type
The Sure-Lites watertight, corrosion resistant exit with tough polycarbonate
lens is designed for use where rain, moisture, dust or corrosives are
present. Economical long-life fluorescent lamps provide highly visible
signage and downlighting. The vibration resistant lamps make the UMX
perfect for heavy industrial applications (NEMA 4X Listed).

Sealed Lead Calcium Battery
Two F6T5 fluorescent lamps
provide long life and normal
mode illumination of the
lens. Two 6V, 6W DC lamps
illuminate the face panel in

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 brownout circuit on Sure-
Lites’ exits monitors the flow
of AC current to the exit and
activates the emergency

Solid-State Transfer
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.
