ABB Stanilite Nexus LX Installation Manual

Removal instructions

1. Before removing the installed fitting, de-energise and lock off the supply circuit. Note: There may be 2 actives present,

ensure all power is isolated before proceeding.

2. Undo 2 screws and remove the lid as shown in figure 1.

3. Undo 2 screws and slide the gear tray forward to allow adequate room to disconnect the mains cable assembly plug

and the battery plug from the PCA. For Nexus LX unit; disconnect the data plug from the main PCA.

4. Remove the gear tray, disconnect mains cable and Nexus LX cable (where applicable) from the terminal blocks.

5. Undo the mounting screws and remove the base from the wall cavity.

Testing precautions

Once the fitting is permanently connected to the mains supply, a commissioning discharge test as required in

AS/NZS2293.2 must be carried out. You will need to allow 24 hours for the battery to fully charge prior to conducting

this test, presently (at the time of writing), the standard requires that fittings operate in emergency mode for a period not

less than 2 hours for their commissioning test and for not less than 90 minutes thereafter (it is required that 6 monthly

discharge tests be carried out). You will need to keep the records for the commissioning test and enter them into the

building emergency services logbook or via other recording methods as allowed by AS/NZ2293.2.

Construction sites

Continuously switching of the mains power supply that is connected to emergency light fittings during the construction

phase of an installation will cause these fittings to discharge and charge their batteries many times over a short period;

this can shorten the life of the battery and will also result in shortened emergency lamp life. ABB does not recommend

such practices and may not honour the warranty on batteries when they are subjected to such harsh operating

conditions. Emergency light fittings are designed to be discharge tested once every 6 months as per AS/NZS2293.2,

subjecting the product to repeated discharge or charge cycles is regarded as an abuse of the fittings.

Important note: This product is designed for indoor use only.

Nexus LX (data cable system)

The Nexus

range of emergency light fitting are designed to be connected together into a special communication network

®

over a Level 4 (or higher) high speed, single twisted pair data cable. The Nexus user and technical guide describes all

you need to know to successfully install a Nexus project. Ask for it from your supervisor, from your employer or from your

nearest ABB product supplier. The network cabling of the building must be installed as per the procedure detailed in the

Nexus user and technical guide. No mains or mains carrying cables are to be connected to the data terminals or cables.

Nexus RF (wireless system)

The Nexus RF range of light fittings are designed to communicate via a proprietary RF network, however the electrical

installation of the fittings is identical to that of a standard non-monitored fitting.
