Tags: Light Testing
Using a secure mesh network, the EmeRed device offers a unique and cost-effective solution for businesses aiming to comply with relevant BSI standards such as BS 5266, BS 50172, and other industry regulations across their entire property portfolio.
By integrating the EmeRed device, organisations can achieve financial savings while upholding a high level of safety and adherence.
One of the key advantages of the EmeRed device is its ability to automate emergency light testing and monitor the performance of each fitting. Traditional manual testing of emergency lighting is often tedious and inaccurate, but the EmeRed device simplifies this process by conducting regular tests and actively monitoring every emergency light. This proactive approach enables businesses to identify necessary lifecycle upgrades and plan maintenance more efficiently.
Using Vericon’s portal, test schedules can be set per device allowing for staggered testing in a single building, ensuring compliance with BS5266.
Using EmeRed to automate your emergency lighting testing regime has a range of advantages over manual testing, including:
-
Compliance
EmeRed devices are programmed to conduct tests in accordance with your regulatory obligations so you can guarantee 100% compliance.
-
Simple Management
Since the reporting is online, via the cloud, individual lights, buildings or indeed whole estates can be controlled from your desk.
-
Degradation Testing
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.
In addition to simplifying compliance, the EmeRed device provides real-time data and reporting, giving engineers a comprehensive overview of the status and performance of all emergency lighting systems. This access empowers them to promptly address any issues or faults – meaning a visit can be planned and work can be carried out straight away, saving time and money.
Also, the EmeRed device offers predictive maintenance capabilities. Through continuous monitoring of emergency lighting performance, the device can detect and address potential issues or faults before they escalate into significant problems. This proactive maintenance approach helps prevent costly repairs or system replacements, ultimately extending the lifespan of emergency lighting systems.
