Eaton provides power to emergency luminaires

01 September 2020

Eaton, a leading power management company, has announced the launch of DualGuard-S emergency lighting central battery system for medium to large buildings.

Completely reengineered to meet the needs of existing and known future regulations, DualGuard-S utilises Eaton technologies in flexible switching to speed up planning, installation and commissioning.

The DualGuard-S central battery system reliably supplies power for emergency luminaires and can be seamlessly integrated into Eaton’s emergency lighting portfolio comprising safety luminaires, escape sign luminaires, low power supply units and automatic luminaire test systems, said the statement from the company.

On installation, DualGuard-S utilises Eaton’s patented Star technology, which allows multiple switching modes to be commissioned, monitored and set on the same circuit, so no additional luminaire data cable is required.

The innovative ACU Bus removes the need for duplicate wiring and modules to control Eaton luminaires across multiple systems.

With the web controller, any changes can be managed through the software rather than physical cabling changes, so there are savings in cabling costs, and the number of circuits is reduced.

A host of automatic fault detection and monitoring solutions are available such as battery string and optional battery block monitoring, with detailed information on the status of each battery block, including temperature and overall battery health.
