The Red Arrow Vanguard Site light requires a 110V AC power supply.

How long does the emergency battery last?

The emergency duration is rated for 3 hours.

Is this light suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it is IP65 rated, meaning it is protected against dust and water jets, making it suitable for outdoor or harsh environments.

Can I choose if the light is always on or only comes on in an emergency?

Yes, the unit offers configurable maintained or non-maintained operation.

What is the color temperature of the light?

The lighting color temperature is 6500K, providing a cool white light.

Does it come with exit signage?

What does IK06 rating mean?

The IK06 rating indicates the luminaire has resistance to impact, specifically protecting against 1 Joule of impact energy (equivalent to dropping a 500g object from 200mm).

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on during power failure.

Verify that the unit is correctly wired to a functional 110V power supply. Check the maintained/non-maintained setting. Ensure the emergency battery is properly connected and has had sufficient time to charge (allow 24 hours initial charge). Test the battery health if possible.

Light flickers or is dim.

This could indicate a low battery charge or a failing battery. Allow a full 24-hour charge cycle. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement. Check all electrical connections for security.

Unit fails IP65 or IK06 rating due to damage.

Inspect the luminaire for any cracks or openings. If damage is found, do not operate the unit and contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician for inspection or replacement. Do not attempt to repair seals yourself.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Vanguard Site light features a hinged gear tray, simplifying installation. Ensure the unit is mounted securely to a suitable surface. Wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician, connecting to a 110V power supply. The unit can be configured for maintained (always on) or non-maintained (emergency only) operation prior to final installation. Attach the provided self-adhesive exit legend if required for safety signage.

Compatibility: This fixture is specifically designed for 110V AC power systems. It is not compatible with 230V mains electricity. Ensure your site's electrical infrastructure is suitable for 110V operation.

Care: To maintain performance, periodically clean the luminaire with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Regularly check the lens for dirt or obstructions. Test the emergency function monthly and annually as per safety regulations. Ensure no obstructions block the light output or sensor (if applicable).
