The Karen Emergency Series offers robust surface-mounted linear solutions designed for functional areas like stairwells, parking lots, and industrial corridors. Unlike recessed lights, these fixtures can be installed on any solid surface, providing essential safety illumination.
Non-Maintained (KA22): Specifically designed to remain OFF during normal operation and only switch ON during a power failure. Perfect for dedicated emergency lighting where general lighting is provided by other fixtures.
Maintained (KA21): Operates as a standard light fixture but includes battery backup. It ensures the escape route is always lit, day or night, and stays lit during blackouts.
Sensor + Emergency (KA13): The ultimate smart solution. This high-power 100cm unit combines a Microwave Motion Sensor for energy saving with an Emergency Battery. It lights up when cars/people approach and switches to battery mode if power fails.
Question: What is the difference between KA21 and KA22?
Answer: The KA22 is “Non-Maintained” (only turns on when power fails), while the KA21 is “Maintained” (works as a normal always-on light and keeps working during power failure). Visually they look the same (30cm length), so check the code carefully.
Question: Where is the Karen KA13 (Sensor Model) used?
Answer: The KA13 is ideal for underground parking garages and long corridors. Its microwave sensor saves electricity by turning the light off when no one is present, while the built-in emergency battery ensures safety compliance during blackouts.
Question: How is the Karen series installed?
Answer: The Karen series is Surface Mounted. It comes with brackets that are screwed directly onto the wall or ceiling. It does not require cutting holes in the ceiling, making it perfect for concrete structures.
