Photoluminescent Exit Signs
Application
The DPL Series of photoluminescent exit signage offers exit compliance
with UL listed legible viewing distances of 50’, 75’ and 100’. The signs
absorb and store ambient light from, fluorescent, mercury vapor, metal
halide, and LED light sources, and are designed to provide emergency
illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes in the event of power loss.
The signs require a continuous minimum of 5 foot-candles to maintain
the charge. The DPL photoluminescent exit signs do not require AC or
electrical power. All signs have a 25 year lifecycle.
Construction
The DPL Series is available in four differing construction models.
AF - Aluminum Frame with rigid PVC, photoluminescent background
P - injection molded ABS plastic polymer, photoluminescent letters
PM - high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with aluminum face and back,
photoluminescent letters
A - Acrylic, photoluminescent letters
All signs ship with a ceiling mount bracket and 2 self-adhesive backed
arrows for directional indication. See page 2 for additional construction
details.
Illumination
The DPL Series is manufactured with phosphorescent (glow-in-
the-dark) pigments, which are based on Strontium Oxide Aluminate
Chemistry. Sign will remain visible and legible to the rated distance
indicated, for a minimum of 90 minutes after all light has been
extinguished.
Installation
All signs can be wall mounted, and include a ceiling mount bracket,
which can be installed to facilitate ceiling or end mounting. Wall
anchors or screws(supplied by others) can be used to mount the sign
directly to the wall surface, or ceiling mounted by use of the supplied
bracket.
