Lithonia Lighting 263X1T 2 Head Led Emergency Lighting Unit

Product Description

The LITHONIA LIGHTING 263X1T is a two-head LED emergency lighting unit designed for life-safety applications in commercial and institutional buildings. It operates on 120 or 277 VAC and draws only 0.33 watts during normal standby operation. The unit uses a sealed nickel cadmium (NiCd) battery to maintain illumination during a power outage. The thermoplastic housing is finished in white, making it suitable for surface mounting in corridors, stairwells, and exit pathways. Licensed electricians typically install this unit as part of a compliant emergency egress lighting system in accordance with NFPA 101 and NEC requirements.

The 263X1T is intended for use in commercial, institutional, and light industrial settings where code-compliant emergency lighting is required. Typical installations include office corridors, retail spaces, educational facilities, healthcare facilities, and other occupancies governed by NFPA 101 life-safety codes. The dual-head design allows the installer to aim each lamp head independently to maximize coverage of an egress path from a single mounting point. The white thermoplastic housing blends with standard interior finishes.
