READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION – Connect the battery to the unit before applying AC power.
1.
2.
CAUTION – To prevent electrical shock, do not mate unit connector until installation is complete and A.C.
power is supplied to the unit.
CAUTION – This fixture provides more than one power supply output source. To reduce the risk of electrical
3.
shock, disconnect both normal and emergency sources by turning off the A.C. branch circuit and by discon-
necting the unit connector. In addition, the circuit board should be mounted so that no live parts are accessible
during routine maintenance or relamping.
4.
CAUTION – The high temperature Ni-Cad battery is replaceable. Replacement batteries are available
from IOTA Engineering. Recycle or dispose of the nickel-cadmium battery properly.
5.
The I-13-L is for use with grounded, U.L. Listed, indoor fixtures. The acceptability of the combination must be
determined by Underwriters Laboratories. Refer to the Engineering Considerations section for proper installa-
tion.
6.
The I-13-L requires an unswitched A.C. power source of either 120 or 277 volts. Properly cap the unused A.C.
lead.
7.
Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
8.
The I-13-L should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by
unauthorized personnel.
9.
The I-13-L will cold strike and operate one 5, 7, 9, and 13 watt twin tube, 2 pin lamp with integral starter, or
one 9-13 watt USA quad 2 pin lamp with integral starter.
The I-13-L is for use with unusually shaped fluorescent fixtures such as wall packs, sconces, and recessed
10.
stair fixtures.
