Remote Test for RF-Equipped ESR Models

Models denoted with an "-RF" are equipped with a wireless receiver which responds to signals transmitted by the ESRT remote test transmitter. When the signal is received, the coil of the relay is disconnected, allowing the emergency power to flow to the contacts of the relay, thus switching the designated emergency lighting on. For this operation to occur, the light switch or lighting control must be off during the test procedure.

Together these models are used to enable an inspector, in accordance with Article 700.3 of the 2011 NEC (National Electric Code), to easily activate the UL924 Emergency Bypass/Shunt Relay wirelessly with the ESRT remote test transmitter, as to prove the ability of the system to bypass the wall switch or other lighting control.
