The device is tailored for retrofitting, ensuring that existing infrastructures can be easily upgraded without extensive modifications. This makes it ideal for bringing current lighting systems up to compliance with minimal disruption
EmeRed, along with other Vericon devices, utilise ZigBee technology. ZigBee creates a self-healing mesh network to cover an entire building and ensure connectivity, it also has a low power consumption which offer devices a long battery life. It also has a high data transfer rate, ensuring efficient and fast communication.
EmeRed can be installed and commissioned on to any luminaire in under 10 minutes and will carry out tests over the next ten years and beyond.
Using Vericon’s Portal, test schedules can be set per device allowing for staggered testing in a single building, ensuring compliance with BS5266.
The EmeRed will automatically send all test results to Vericon Connect. The Connect system will then notify specified users to any failed lamps or those requiring preventative maintenance.
Testing emergency lighting equipment is a time consuming and costly job. It is often left to the facilities manager or buildings manager who have not always been given the training required to take on such an important responsibility.
Using EmeRed to automate your emergency lighting testing regime has a range of advantages over manual testing, including:
EmeRed devices are programmed to conduct tests in accordance with your regulatory obligations so you can guarantee 100% compliance.
Since the reporting is online, via the cloud, individual lights, buildings or indeed whole estates can be controlled from your desk.
EmeRed measure the life outstanding in each battery, to ensure they are replaced before an emergency occurs. It also automatically notifies you if there is a problem.
