LED Exit Lighting for Correctional & Institutional Facilities
The Ironclad RZ combines a low-profile 5/8-inch housing with flexible mounting and energy-efficient LED illumination for facilities where a less obtrusive exit sign is preferred. Wall, canopy and pendant mounting options allow the RZ to be adapted to a variety of corridors, common areas and other egress locations.
For correctional, detention and other applications where additional protection is required, an optional polycarbonate security cover provides added resistance to vandalism and impact. The RZ is available with red or green illumination, single- or double-face configurations, battery backup and a range of self-test, diagnostic and emergency-control options.
