The Domus BOLT-60-EM is a 640mm emergency LED batten withdual wattage 10 / 20W, tri-colour switching and aLiFePO4 emergency battery, fully compliant to AS/NZS2293.

It is called a 600mm batten and it measures 640mm

• The title says 600mm (2ft). The record and the datasheet both say640mm.
• Read that as nominal against overall 600mm is the fluorescent size itreplaces, 640mm is the fitting including its end caps.
• Order to 640mm. If it is going into a fixed recess, a joinery gap or betweentwo obstructions, the 40mm is the difference between fitting and not.

Two things that make it NOT a smaller version of the 1,200mm model

• The shorter fitting is the WIDER one 130mm against 80mm, onhalf the length. That is counter-intuitive and it is on both datasheets. If you are mixinglengths in one space they will not look like a family, and on a narrow ceiling batten or ajoinery reveal 130mm may simply not fit.
• The emergency duration is different: 90 minutes here, 120 on the 1,200mm. So the two are not interchangeable in a designed emergency layout. If your drawingspecifies a duration, check which fitting it was drawn around.

The emergency specification

• Fully compliant to AS/NZS2293. Duration 90 minutes,sustained rated. What your building requires is set by its classification and yourelectrical designer.
• LiFePO4 battery, 6.4V, 1,500mAh at 0.2CmA. 7 hours tocharge the same cell as the larger model, which is why the shorter run time simplyreflects the load.
• Classification C0: D50, C90: D32 the same as the 1,200mm, so the twospace identically even though they do not run for the same time.

The normal-mode specification

• 10W / 20W dual wattage and 3000 / 4000 / 5700K,both switched on the internal driver at installation, with the fitting open.
• Output: 3000K 900 / 1,800lm 4000K and5700K 1,000 / 2,000lm.
• Note the 10W setting gives the same 9001,000lm as the 1,200mmmodels 10W setting the same light from a fitting half the length, so it isproportionally brighter along its run.
• CRI 80, 120 beam, 40,000hrs. Not dimmable.
• 640 130 80mm, metal and polycarbonate, surface mounted or suspended.

The IP44 is qualified

IP44 from the underside of the batten once installed into the ceiling not a general IP44. It describes the fitting in place with the ceiling closingthe top. For a genuine damp or wash-down location, ask us.

And the warranty is two terms

3 years on the fitting, 1 year on the battery. Our record holds only the 3-yearfigure. On an emergency luminaire the battery term is the one that matters it is the part thatages and the part that fails the periodic discharge test. Plan replacement asmaintenance.

Where it works

• Short corridors, landings, lobbies and stairwell half-landings where a 1,200mmbatten would overrun.
• Storerooms, plant cupboards and back-of-house, replacing 2ft fluorescent.
• Not alongside 1,200mm BOLTs where they will be seen together the130mm body will not match.
• Not as a substitute in a layout drawn around 120-minute fittings.
• Not where dimming is required.

Questions

Is it 600mm or 640mm?

640mm. The title says 600mm because that is the fluorescent size it replaces the fitting itself, including its end caps, measures 640mm, and both the record and the datasheet say so. Order to 640mm. If it is going into a fixed recess, a joinery gap or between two obstructions, that 40mm is the difference between fitting and not.

Is it just a shorter version of the 1200mm model?

No, and there are two differences that matter. Its body is 130mm wide against the 1200mm model’s 80mm the shorter fitting is the wider one, which is counter-intuitive and is on both datasheets. And its emergency duration is 90 minutes against the larger model’s 120. So if you are mixing lengths in one space they will not look like a family, and they are not interchangeable in a designed emergency layout.

Can I substitute it for a 1200mm BOLT in my emergency drawing?

Check first. They share the same C0: D50, C90: D32 classification, so they space identically but they do not run for the same time. This one gives 90 minutes and the 1200mm gives 120. If your drawing specifies a duration, find out which fitting it was drawn around before substituting, because the spacing being right does not make the duration right.

What is the warranty?

Two terms: 3 years on the fitting and 1 year on the battery. Our record holds only the 3-year figure the battery term is on the datasheet and in no product field. On an emergency luminaire that is the one that matters, since the battery is the part that ages and the part that fails the periodic discharge test. Plan its replacement as maintenance rather than expecting a warranty claim.

How bright is it compared with the larger model?

At the 10W setting it gives the same 9001,000lm as the 1200mm model does at its 10W setting the same light from a fitting half the length, so it is proportionally brighter along its run. At full output it gives up to 2,000lm against the larger fitting’s 4,000lm, which is what you would expect from 20W against 40W.

Is IP44 enough for a damp area?

Not as stated. The datasheet qualifies it: IP44 “from the underside of the batten once installed into the ceiling”, describing the fitting in place with the ceiling closing off the top rather than one suspended with air all round. That covers a covered car park; it is not a wash-down rating. For a genuinely damp location, ask us.

When do I set the wattage and colour?

At installation, with the fitting open both are switches on the internal driver rather than controls you can reach afterwards. Decide before the electrician closes it up, because changing your mind later means a ladder and a screwdriver.
