MTLx is the first lighting fixture of its kind to address all modes of required tunnel lighting in a single form factor. MTLx offers an ultra-rugged design and an optional integral battery pack (NFPA 130). With its simple yet sophisticated control system, lighting controls are hassle-free, providing greater flexibility and convenience in tunnel lighting. Individual light level modes are controlled through the clearNET™ wireless mesh network, which also performs health/diagnostic monitoring on the electronic sub-components including light engine, driver, and optional battery.
Only 6-watts are required to comply with NFPA 130 emergency egress light levels at 3:1 uniformity to improve safety. Levels can be preset higher depending on agency requirement (e.g. 1 or 2 fc minimum). For maintenance and construction work periods, output can be changed to 50-watts to comply with OSHA 1926. The included 10-watt uplight component illuminates leaks and other potential damage/issues on the ceiling.
The optional integral battery back, which provides 1-4 hours of emergency lighting depending on requirement, meets the intent of NFPA 130 and eliminates the need for costly upgrades to two-hour fire rated emergency power circuits, associated junction boxes, and backup generators/inverters. System safety and performance is improved through redundancy at the fixture level with remote diagnostic health monitoring. Clear-Vu’s NiMH battery technology is world class and has a 10-year design life to diffuse any fears of battery maintenance.
Heavy gauge extruded aluminum construction, high impact-resistant lensing and tamperproof fasteners combined with an IP66-rated housing results in a lighting fixture that withstand extreme physical and environmental abuse.
clearNET monitors the health of the lighting system through a 900Mhz wireless mesh network to provide effective and efficient maintenance and asset management and is capable of integration with existing EAM software platforms. clearNET also provides the capability to control the level of illumination specific to activities in a tunnel. Additionally, clearNET serves as a platform to provide a power and data connection for non-lighting system sensors including ambient temperature, moisture, gas, and/or hazardous materials.
MTLx provides high levels of uniform lighting for visual comfort and safety. Even at 25’ spacings the lighting system exceeds required lighting levels for emergency egress lighting, maintenance/construction task lighting and ceiling inspection lighting.
With MTLx, you can be confident that your tunnel lighting needs are being met with the highest standards of quality and innovation!
