WARNING! DISCONNECT SUPPLY BEFORE INSTALLING,
DECOMMISSIONING OR MODIFYING THIS FITTING!
WARNING! The control box should not be opened and
should only be handled by a qualified competent person.
WARNING! This luminaire is intended only for mounting
in locations where the plug and socket are protected from
unauthorized disconnection.
DESCRIPTION
When the mains supply fails, these units provide 2 hrs illumination from
a fully charged battery following a 16 hrs charge. All models are intended
for connection to 230 V.A.C. +10 / -6% 50Hz supply via an unswitched
active.
The Lifeguards are manufactured with built-in BARDIC SENTINEL
automatic tester and can accept the BARDIC WINETRF as an optional
extra. The SENTINEL feature if enabled will automatically test the fitting
every 91 days for operation in the emergency condition (operation on
battery) for a minimum duration of 90 mins. The results of the test, fail or
pass, is indicated by flashing the LED (mounted on the SPU) at Intervals
Please refer to the Sentinel user guide section if enabling the
sentinel feature.
The BARDIC WINETRF central monitoring module allows the SPU to
communicate with the BARDIC WINETRF system, which offers additional
functionality such as real-time control and monitoring, web-based
interface, free topology, automatic scheduler and electronic logbook.

IMPORTANT!
A faulty battery can place severe overloads upon electrical components
in the fitting therefore it is important that the faulty battery be replaced as
soon as possible.
WARNING: Do not touch the surface of the lamp with bare fingers!
FUNCTIONS
These models come complete with an automatic charger, inverter module
and lithium iron phosphate battery. The inverter and battery power a single
or dual LED which switches off when AC is supplied and switches on
automatically when AC fails. Solid state circuitry switches off the LEDs and
isolates the battery when it is fully discharged and will not reset until mains
is restored.
A GREEN light emitting diode (LED) charge monitor indicates a healthy
mains supply and functioning charger. A test switch to simulate a mains
power failure is included for testing an emergency operation when the
mains supply is healthy.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: The fitting is shipped with the SENTINEL option disabled by default.
If the BARDIC SENTINEL feature is to be enabled or BARDIC WINETRF
option is to be fitted, check the installation instructions provided before
proceeding further.
1. Cut hole in the Ceiling
Small Disc – 70mm minimum to 75mm maximum diameter
Large Disc – 120mm minimum to 125mm maximum diameter
2. Write the installation date on the battery pack label and connect the
battery to the control box.
3. Write the unique fitting ID on the sticker provided and paste on the disc
4. Push the control box and mains cable through the ceiling opening into
the ceiling cavity
5. Compress the spring steel clips and push the lamp head into the ceiling
opening until flush against the ceiling
6. Plug the supplied mains cable to an available 3 pin general power outlet.
COMMISSIONING
IMPORTANT! If the BARDIC SENTINEL or BARDIC WINETRF has been
fitted to this SPU, then follow their respective commissioning instructions.
1. Switch on mains supply. The charge monitor LED will illuminate.
2. Allow the unit to operate for 30 mins and then depress the test switch to
check emergency operation.
3. Release the test switch and allow the unit to operate for 16 hrs to fully
charge the battery after which time the unit is ready for duty.
4. A 2-hr discharge test is required as part of the commissioning process
as per AS2293
MAINTENANCE
• MONTHLY - Inspect to ensure charge monitor is illuminated.
• SIX MONTHLY (or at the discretion of the enforcing Authority) - Isolate
the mains supply to unit and allow it to operate until the lamp extinguish-
es. Should the unit provide less than 90 minutes illumination between
10°c and 40°C ambient temperature following a 16 hr charge, the unit is
faulty and steps should be taken to rectify the fault.
• TWELVE MONTHLY - Clean all light-emitting/ reflecting surfaces.
• FIVE YEARS TEST - Check fitting runtime against L70 lifetime and de-
termine if it is still suitable for use.
NOTE: The 6 monthly test should be undertaken wherever possible at times
of least risk (e.g. during daylight hours). This is because of the possibility of a
failure of the normal lighting supply whilst the battery is discharged).
SENTINEL USER GUIDE
To enable sentinel functionality, move the switch on the control board to
the "S" position
When the fitting is first powered up with sentinel active, sentinel will initial-
ize the fitting. This is a quick check to ascertain that the fitting can function
correctly when AC is cut off.
If the initialization fails, the yellow sentinel indicator on the disc head
will blink continuously until the fault is rectified and the sentinel switch is
toggled.
•
Check that battery is connected
•
And fitting has been correctly installed
•
Toggle sentinel switch in the control board to off and back to
on position
•
Fitting will reinitialize
Upon a successful initialization, the fitting will run a commissioning test
after 16 hrs of charging, followed by a 90 mins test being scheduled 91
days after a successful commissioning.
If the commissioning test fails, the yellow sentinel indicator will blink
continuously (0.5sec on, 0.5sec off) and sentinel will schedule another
commission test to run in the next 16 hrs.
Commissioning tests will continue to run after every 16 hrs until
a successful test has been recorded.
NOTE: Ensure that there are no power interruptions to the site 16 hrs be-
fore the commissioning test to allow the fitting to be fully charged.
Clearing fault display. After rectifying the fault, push and release the test
button 4 times
in 7 secs to clear the yellow LED fault display. This action
[1]
will turn off the yellow LED and it would remain off until the next scheduled
test. After which it would display the results of the last test.
To reset a fitting; with the fitting powered up, move the sentinel switch to
the off position, wait 30 secs and move the sentinel switch back to the on
position.
This action causes the fitting to factory reset. Any previous stored test will
be deleted, and the 91 days schedule will be reset. The fitting will re-com-
mission itself.
Requesting tests
Two types of test can be manually requested.
•
A quick test
A quick test is a 5 sec test usually used during installation to check that
the battery, lamp etc. are properly installed. It runs the fitting in emergency
mode for 5 secs.
To initiate a quick test. Press and release the test switch 3 times
•
A 90-minute Standard test
To initiate a 90-minute test, push the test button 2 times
Sentinel will acknowledge the command by causing the yellow indicator to
blink rapidly for 5 secs.
The requested test will run after allowing battery to fully charge.
Note: Manually requesting a 90 min test will reset the 91day schedule. To
synchronize the test schedule of fittings in an area, toggle mains on and
off twice from the circuit breaker to manually request a standard test. The
next scheduled standard test will run at the same time for all fittings on
that circuit.
