Architecturally pleasing emergency lighting is visible only when you need it

PEACHTREE CITY, Ga., September 11, 2009 - Cooper Lighting, a division of Cooper Industries, Ltd. (NYSE: CBE), has introduced the Sure-Lites Concealed Emergency Light Series (CEL Series), a new aesthetically pleasing emergency light that is recessed in the ceiling or wall and only visible when in use. Designed for applications where the finest architectural appearance is required, the CEL Series offers maximum protection with high quality MR16 lamps to light a path of egress during an emergency, but minimal intrusion within the environmental setting when not in use.

The CEL emergency light is fully recessed in the wall or ceiling and when power is lost, the doors open automatically, lighting a path of egress up to 150 feet from two powerful MR16 halogen lamps (up to 75W each). Standard run time is 90 minutes, but the CEL Series is available with an extended run time of 120 minutes. The fixture automatically returns to the closed position when power is restored. The series has four available locking lamp positions for each lamp, ensuring optimal light distribution. A continuous cam, precision motor drive offers dependable operation of the opening and closing of the doors.

Standard features include Self Diagnostics and Self Testing to ensure code compliance and product performance.

The self-diagnostic unit will automatically perform the tests required by the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code every 30 days. The system indicates the status of the unit at all times using an LED indicator that is located near the test switch.

The fixture comes with a specification grade durable off-white textured powder coat finish that can be field painted or covered with wallpaper to match any color or surface.
