6. WIRING THE A.C. INPUT
A. The
ILB-3020 and A.C. driver must be on the same branch circuit.
B. The
ILB-3020 requires an unswitched A.C. power source of either 120 or 277 volts. Select the proper voltage
lead and cap the unused lead.
C. When the
ILB-3020 is used with a switched fixture, the A.C. input to the ILB-3020 must be connected ahead of
the fixture switch. Refer to Illustration 3 for switched and unswitched fixture wiring diagrams.

7. LABELS
Attach the appropriate labels adjacent to the
Test Switch and Charge Indicator. Annotate Re-lamping label for
lamp type and wattage. The Caution and the Re-lamping labels must be on the fixture in a readily visible location
to anyone attempting to service the fixture.
8. COMPLETING INSTALLATION
When the installation is complete, switch the A.C. power on and join the
ILB-3020 unit connector.
OPERATION
Normal Mode – A.C. power is present. The A.C. driver operates the LED light bar(s) as intended. The ILB-3020 is in the
standby charging mode. The
Charge Indicator will be lit providing a visual indication that the battery is being charged.
Emergency Mode – The A.C. power fails. The ILB-3020 senses the A.C. power failure and automatically switches
to the Emergency Mode. One or multiple LED light bars are illuminated, for a minimum of 90 minutes. When the A.C.
power is restored, the
ILB-3020 switches the system back to the Normal Mode and resumes battery charging. See
page 1 of the Instruction Manual.
TESTING & MAINTENANCE
Pressing the
Test Switch turns off the light on the Charge Indicator and forces the unit into emergency mode, inter-
rupting power to the designated A.C. driver. The light bar is now being lit by the
ILB-3020 unit. After releasing the Test
Switch, the fixture returns to normal operation after a momentary delay. To simulate a “BLACK OUT” use the circuit
breaker to turn off A.C. power.
Initial Testing – Allow the unit to charge approximately 1 hour, then conduct a short discharge test. Allow a 24 hour
charge before conducting a 90 minute test.
The
ILB-3020 is a maintenance free unit, however, periodic inspection and testing is required. NFPA 101, Life Safety
Code, outlines the following schedule:
Monthly – Insure that the Charge Indicator light is illuminated. Conduct a 30 second discharge test by depressing the
Test Switch. At least one light bar should operate at reduced output.
Annually – Insure that the Charge Indicator is illuminated. Conduct a full 90 minute discharge test. The unit should
operate as intended for the duration of the test.
“Written records of testing shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.”
SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
