Emergency Battery Backup
The SHARK4/E integrates a 90-minute emergency battery backup that activates automatically when AC power is lost. The fixture delivers maintained illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes in emergency mode, supporting compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code and IBC egress lighting requirements. Battery backup is available on 120–277V models only — not available on 480V configurations. Sensor options (/PIR/E, /MVS/E, /LCBS/E, /LCBS/MVS/E) combine occupancy sensing with battery backup in a single fixture.
Smart & Control Features
The SHARK4/E supports built-in 0–10V dimming. Additional sensor + battery backup combinations available: /PIR/E, /MVS/E, /LCBS/E, and /LCBS/MVS/E — integrating occupancy sensing and emergency backup in a single unit.
