IEC 62034 Automatic Test

According to HK FSD, Technical Guidance May 2021 and FSD Circular Letter No. 5/2021, PPA/104(A), 5th Revision, emergency lighting with self-contained batteries shall be inspected periodically. For automatic testing devices, it shall be designed in accordance with IEC 62034:2012 - Automatic test systems for battery powered emergency escape lighting.

Our test system will start automatically after mains supply is not interrupted for 5 days. After a random delay days for different device,  a commissioning test is started. This avoids adjacent devices testings at the same time. Monthly functional tests and annually duration test will then be repeated.

The firmware supports full IEC 62034 - ATS Type S, including the following tasks:

Functional and Duration Tests

Functional and duration tests are two types of tests performed to ensure exit sign functionality and reliability.

• Functional test is performed once a month to check the basic functionality. The test also checks the hardware parameters, such as various voltage and current. The test duration is 60 seconds.
• Duration tests are performed once a year. The tests is the same as functional test but with additional battery life check with a full rated battery discharge.
• Commissioning test are the first duration tests. They are typically performed after the device has been installed and configured.

Automatic Test Flowchart

App support

An Android app is available to simplify set up and maintenance. It helps

• Set up new devices
• Sync test results to cloud
• Check test results and real time status
• Use as Hoye IR remote controller

* An Android phone with an IR blaster is recommended. If not, a Hoye IR remote controller has to be used with the app.

Records of Test Results

To ensure high reliability, all test results are saved in two sets of data backups:

• Internal flash memory: This can store up to 20 years of data.
• Cloud storage: The number of test results that can be stored in the cloud is virtually unlimited.

After an automatic test, the test result is saved to internal flash memory immediately. If a Wi-Fi connection is available, the data is also uploaded to the cloud.

LED Chips

The series incorporates best of best Nichia LEDs from Japan. The LEDs have the longest LED life and the best performance in the industry. They are IES lM-80-2008 (Measuring Lumen Maintenance of LED Light Sources) certified for the best reliability and performance. For eye safety, the LEDs are also IEC 62471:2008 (Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp Systems) certificated.

Status Indications

Two LED indicators provide a rich set of status indications for system status and faults. Operators can use the information to quickly identify and diagnose problems.
