Cooper Lighting APEL LED Emergency Light Head, Dual-Voltage

The Cooper Lighting APEL is a UL 924 listed LED emergency light head unit engineered for reliable code-required egress lighting, delivering a minimum of 90 minutes of run time on battery power. The APEL family is available in Surface and Wall mounting configurations and offers LED heads ranging from 0.33 watts to 0.8 watts, giving specifiers flexibility to match light output to the space while retaining the same dependable dual-voltage 120/277 VAC, 60 Hz input across every configuration. Housed in a compact enclosure that fits discreetly into commercial and industrial spaces, the APEL pairs a no-maintenance sealed nickel cadmium battery with a universal j-box mounting pattern, making it a straightforward retrofit or new-construction solution for facilities that need dependable emergency illumination without a bulky footprint.

Cooper Lighting APEL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Cooper Lighting APEL emergency light work on both 120V and 277V circuits?
Yes. The APEL emergency light head runs on 120/277 VAC, 60 Hz input, so the same unit goes on a 120V branch circuit in a small retail space or a 277V circuit in a commercial building. That dual-voltage input is the same across every mounting type and wattage in the APEL family, so you only decide mounting and wattage, not voltage.
2) Does the Cooper APEL meet the code requirement for 90 minutes of emergency lighting?
It does. The APEL is UL 924 listed emergency lighting equipment and its sealed nickel cadmium battery delivers a minimum of 90 minutes of run time on battery power, which is the standard egress duration inspectors look for. A brownout circuit and low voltage disconnect handle power quality events and protect the battery between outages.
3) Can the APEL emergency light mount to an existing junction box on a retrofit?
Yes, that is how it is built. The APEL uses a universal j-box mounting pattern with snap fit housing, so it lands on standard existing boxes without new prep. That makes it workable as a straight swap for a failed emergency unit as well as on new-construction rough-in. Pick the Surface version for ceiling or box-face installs and the Wall version for vertical surfaces.
4) What is the difference between the 0.33W, 0.47W and 0.8W APEL heads?
The wattage choice is about how much light you throw, not about the electronics. All three sit in the 100 lumen class and share the same 120/277V input and 90 minute battery. Ordering breaks down as follows: APEL is the 0.47 watt Surface unit, APELBK is the 0.33 watt Wall unit, and APELH2 is the 0.8 watt Wall unit. Step up to the 0.8 watt head where ceilings are higher or spacing between units is wider.
5) Can I install the APEL emergency light in an unheated warehouse or a parking garage?
Only in conditioned or mildly conditioned space. The APEL is rated for operation from 10 C to 40 C (50 F to 104 F), so an unheated warehouse, loading dock, or open garage that drops below 50 F is outside its range. For those locations you need a cold-weather rated emergency unit instead.
6) Is the Cooper APEL emergency light ARRA compliant for a federally funded project?
No. The APEL is not ARRA compliant, and country of origin is China. If your project carries Buy American or ARRA domestic-content requirements, this unit will not satisfy them and you need a domestically manufactured emergency light head instead.
7) Does the Cooper APEL battery need periodic replacement or watering like older emergency units?
No routine maintenance. The APEL carries a sealed nickel cadmium battery with line-latched charging circuitry, so there is nothing to top off and no scheduled service beyond the functional testing your facility already does on emergency equipment. For a property manager standardizing across a building, that removes the maintenance task that sealed lead acid units used to create.
8) Is the APEL housing metal or plastic, and will it hold up in a commercial corridor?
The housing is injection molded high impact thermoplastic, not metal. That keeps the unit light on a j-box and resists corrosion and dents in offices, retail, schools and healthcare corridors. If your spec calls for a die-cast or steel enclosure for an industrial or vandal-prone area, this is not that type of unit.
9) How many Cooper APEL units come in a case for a multi-building order?
The APEL ships 8 units per case, which is the figure to work from when you are laying out quantities for a floor or standardizing emergency heads across several buildings. Note the mounting type and wattage are separate part numbers, so a mixed job gets ordered as separate lines.
