INSPECTION OF BREATHER/DRAIN
The breather/drain is installed to provide ventilation to minimize condensation and also
allow liquids to drain out. A small amount of standing liquid may still reside in the bottom
of the enclosure due to construction of drain. Perform visual and mechanical inspections
on a regular basis. Frequency should be determined by the environmental conditions.
However, it is recommended that checks should be made at least once per year.
To minimize condensation, never disassemble breather or drain assemblies.
1. Remove drain or breather and replace it with either a UL Listed, Type 4X plug or
clean ECD18 breather/drain. Ensure a minimum
engagement of three (3) full threads.
2. Clean breather/drain by following "Flush Cleaning"
instructions below.
To avoid damaging breather/drain, do not force handle or cap during inspection.
FLUSH CLEANING
Flush cleaning may be required by the user's periodic maintenance program or when a
drain or breather becomes clogged with foreign material.
1. Attach drain or breather to a clean water line with threaded end facing upstream
(see Figure 5).
2. Flush ECD with water under line pressure (typically 30 to 75 psi). Discard the drain
or breather if the foreign material is not removed.
NOTE: Different styles and sizes of ECD fittings will allow different amounts of
water or air to pass through. To determine if a breather or drain has been cleaned,
compare the volume or water passing through a clean, unused breather or drain of
the same style and size.
3. After cleaning, attach the breather or drain to a pressurized dry air supply line in a
similar manner to that used with the water line in Step 1.
4. Blow the fitting dry, inside and out, with the dry air.
5. Reinstall the ECD into the Myers hub, ensuring engagement of three (3) full
threads. Use Eaton's Crouse-Hinds series STL8 thread lubricant and torque fitting
to wrench-tight.
PERIODIC TESTING
Article 700 of the National Electrical Code states, "Systems shall be tested periodically
on a schedule acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction to assure their maintenance
in proper operating condition." It also states, "A written record shall be kept of such
tests and maintenance."
In the absence of periodic testing requirements by a local authority, the following
recommendations from the NFPA 101 (2018) Life Safety Code
recommended:
1. Monthly: Momentarily operate push-to-test switch. Observe that emergency
lighting fixtures are on full brightness for the entire test cycle. Record the test on
the Maintenance Record Card (provided on page 5).
2. Semi-annually: Shut off AC power at the distribution panel. Verify that the
emergency lighting fixtures remain ON for a minimum of 1-1⁄2 hours.
NOTE: We suggest that this test be continued until the power supply automatically
shuts the emergency light(s) off. This will help maintain full battery capacity.
Record the test on the Maintenance Record Card.

Allow 15 hours charging time before depending on the battery to operate at full
capacity.
Failure to function properly in either test may indicate the need for battery or lamp
replacement.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Explosion hazard: this luminaire is provided with a factory installed emergency
lighting battery pack. Do not conduct ANY maintenance (including CONNECTING/
DISCONNECTING the battery pack) until the area is deemed to be clear of hazardous
atmospheres and all incoming power is turned OFF.
1. Ensure power to the unit is OFF and ensure the area is clear of hazardous
atmospheres before performing maintenance.
2. Loosen (do not remove) the (6) captive cover screws of the P2LPSM2 power
supply housing and carefully place the cover aside for reassembly later.
3. Disconnect the battery by unplugging the quick connect plug connector attached to
the unit.
4. Remove the two (2) screws that fasten the battery hold-down bracket to the
mounting plate. Remove battery. Retain hardware for use with replacement
battery.
To avoid potential explosion, do not short circuit the battery or connector terminals.
5. Reinstall new battery using hold-down bracket and two (2) screws previously
removed. Torque screws to 20 in.-lbs.
6. Reconnect black and red battery conductors to the board via the plug connector.
7. Close cover and torque all (6) cover screws to 25 in.-lbs.
8. Reconnect power to the system by turning on the line voltage into the unit.
9. Test replacement battery following Step 3 of Section C, "Complete Installation."
To avoid explosion:
1. Exercise care in handing cells/batteries in order to prevent shorting of the
cell with conductive materials, such as rings, bracelets and keys. The cell or
conductor may overheat and cause burns.
2. Do not dispose of the cell/battery in open flame; cells may burst.
3. Do not open or mutilate cell/battery. Opened cells may release corrosive
electrolytes which may have harmful effects on the skin and eyes, and may be
toxic if ingested.
REPLACEMENT CIRCUIT BOARD AND BATTERY KIT
P2LPSM2 K57 kit consists of:
(1) Circuit board and charger assembly with mounting bracket
(1) IF 1863
(1) Sealed Ni-Cad battery
(1) CID101 corrosion inhibitor device
(See IF 1863 for replacement).
FIXTURE HEAD REPLACEMENT
All electrical power must be turned OFF before and during installation and
maintenance. Area should be free of hazardous atmospheres before maintenance is
performed to reduce the risk of accidental explosion due to inadvertent shorting of
battery during maintenance.
1. Disconnect AC power by opening the supply circuit at the distribution panel.
2. After removing all AC power to the fixture, loosen (do not remove) the captive
cover screws of the P2LPSM2 power supply enclosure and carefully place the
cover aside for reassembly later.
3. Disconnect battery from charger board via the plug connector.
4. Disconnect fixture head wire leads, noting color coding of wires.
5. Remove nut from underside of fixture head threaded stem and remove fixture
head/CGB fitting assembly from the power supply housing.
NOTE: Do not discard the internal nut or external sealing gasket, which will be
used with the replacement fixture head.
6. Insert wiring for new fixture head assembly through the sealing gasket (removed in
Step 5), and then through the power supply opening. Then insert the fixture CGB
fitting.
7. Install the nut (removed in Step 5) while holding the fixture head assembly in the
desired position.
