Digital Lumens Introduces Software-Based Automated Life-Safety Testing and Reporting Solution for Industrial LED Lights

Integrated System Ensures Worker Safety With Egress Lighting and NFPA Code Compliance
 
BOSTON, November 19, 2015 – Digital Lumens, the market leader in intelligent LED lighting systems, today unveiled software-driven automated life-safety testing and reporting capabilities for its intelligent industrial lighting fixtures with emergency lighting capabilities.
 
The new LightRules Emergency Management Solution streamlines testing and reporting, and provides NFPA-101-compliant light levels in the event of an emergency. It comprises:

• LightRules® 2.12 lighting management software, which now includes automated safety testing and reporting capabilities, and
• New battery-backup fixture accessory that provides emergency lighting in case of interruption to facility power.

With Digital Lumens’ new solution, facility managers can schedule and perform automated emergency lighting tests to ensure the safety of their employees in the event of an emergency. LightRules remotely evaluates all connected emergency lighting fixtures and documents results, and eliminates the need to shut down areas of a facility for manual fixture testing.
 
“Automated emergency lighting testing is a total game changer for us, completely eliminating a time-consuming monthly chore,” said Frank Tavares, Global Process Engineer for Atlas Box and Crating Company. “I know that my team is safe in the unlikely case of an emergency. Plus we have a single, integrated system that lets us manage all aspects of our lighting system – from performance to efficiency to code compliance.”
 
LightRules maintains a comprehensive audit record of all monthly and annual tests so that facility managers can easily demonstrate compliance with critical fire and life safety codes. The battery-backup accessory provides supplemental power for 90 minutes to give facility staff clearly illuminated exit pathways in the case of power outage.
