Selection…

Use this handy "selection tool" to determine the basic central lighting inverter needed for your project.
Use of this selection tool assumes you know the maximum current draw (inrush) at start-up of your total connected load. That would include the nameplate maximum amp draw of motors, fans, etc and/or the maximum inrush current of lighting fixture ballasts, etc. If you don’t know this information, do not use this selection tool; get the information first.
Once you’ve selected the basic model based on the maximum current draw (inrush) of the total load, you may elect to add available options. For available options and accessories, refer to your local Hubbell Lighting, Inc. Sales Representative, the Hubbell Lighting, Inc. Product Selection Guide, your local authorized Electrical Distributor or contact the factory for assistance.

Safety and Simplicity…

Dual-Lite’s line of central lighting inverters provides interruption-free power to all connected loads during emergency conditions. That includes internal path of egress lighting and outdoor lighting to the “Public Way”…whether that means 10 feet from the building or 100 feet. “No break” switching between utility and inverter power means the lights stay on, especially important when HID lighting is in use. Since the central lighting inverter connects to the existing electrical supply and uses new or existing task and convenience lighting, no secondary back up power or lighting equipment is required.

Clean and Green…

By supplying emergency power to the same fixtures used for interior task and convenience lighting, or exterior building lighting, pathway marking or parking lot illumination, Dual-Lite’s central lighting inverter eliminates the need for separate wall-mounted emergency lighting unit equipment, maintaining the integrity of the building architect’s interior design plan. A centralized emergency power supply also eliminates the monthly “push to test” requirement of individual emergency lighting units, saving maintenance work hours. The “off-line” design provides up to a 98% efficiency rating, reducing operating costs.

Certifications…

Dual-Lite central lighting inverters are UL listed to the emergency lighting standard, providing a minimum of 90 minutes of emergency power to all connected loads. All central lighting inverters meet or exceed the requirements of NFPA Standard 70 (National Electrical Code 2005 edition) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code).
