Along with our range of UPS systems,we also supply, install, and maintain a range of Central Battery Systems suitable to meet strict British Standards EN 50171 emergency lighting requirements. Here is a quick overview of what we offer but please read on for full details of our emergency lighting products.
We cover more details about our emergency lighting capabilities below. We explain what the difference is between a standard UPS and a CPSS (Central Power Supply System) and why we work with Socomec and Eaton to provide our essential safety backup products.
But if you would rather speak to one of our experts, call us today or drop us en email to discuss your emergency lighting requirements.
A Central Power Supply System (CPSS) looks very similar to a standard UPS but has some unique features that make CPSS’s more resilient, such has higher fault clearance capability and quicker battery recharge times.
It is especially important that in a mains failure situation the inverter sizing is sufficient to clear downstream protection devices in the event of a fault.
Emergency Lighting or a CPSS is a specific type of back-up power system used with emergency and safety-related applications such as lighting, alarms, and security systems. They share many of the design and operational features of a typical online UPS but have significant differences that conform to strict Pyro ratings and regulations.
Since emergency lighting is a critical life safety installation, it is vital that a central power supply system used to power emergency lighting is designed with specific features conforming to BS EN 50171.
All Central Power Supply Systems must meet the strict criteria outlined in EN 50171 for use with essential life safety protection systems. The standard governs the below key safety features to ensure compliance.
At Specialist Power we will spend time to understand your requirement to help you choose the correct Central Battery System for your business. It is important that all technical factors are considered, including
Central Battery Systems are used to power a wide range of emergency-related applications and devices in the event of a mains failure including:
A standard UPS does not meet the requirements of EN 50171 and should never be used for critical emergency applications. However, here at Specialist Power we can provide a range of emergency Central Battery Systems from Socomec and Eaton that meet the strict criteria.
The EN 50171 Standard comprises a list of applications where a CPSS can be used, specifying the technical features to be used as a CPSS including the system testing requirements.
Central Power Supply Systems require a combination of resilience, regulatory compliance, and ease of use and to meet these objectives, all our emergency systems incorporate the following features:
