Emergency Lighting for Rolling Stock

Railway industry standards require trains to install emergency lighting so that in the event of power loss passengers can still find their way to exits. When it comes to emergency lighting, reliability is king. Emergency lighting must work even when the normal carriage lighting fails.

Teknoware offers a variety of emergency lighting solutions for use in rolling stock: Our emergency lighting can either operate independently as a self-contained setup, or by using independent battery power supply units that come into play in the case of an electrical breakdown or power failure.

Emergency lighting in doorways and ceilings automatically switches on whenever the normal power supply is interrupted or ceases to provide sufficient power to the carriage, ensuring that passengers are not left in the dark.

We provide emergency lighting systems for trains based on both centrally supplied lights and self-contained units. They can be tailored for any market, and meet all applicable standards. The setup can be customised in terms of quantity and positioning according to the requirements of each rail car. All lighting units use efficient and dependable LED lamps as light sources.

Certified for use around the world

Our emergency lighting solutions meet the requirements of all relevant standards.

Operational During Power Outage

In the event of an emergency, the self-contained units are powered by their own backup power source, while the central battery models are powered either by a separate central emergency lighting battery or by the train’s battery.

Key Features

Independent

Emergency lighting is not dependent on the main power supply to the carriage but has independent dedicated batteries that provide electricity directly to the emergency lighting units.

Robust

Teknoware emergency lighting is robust. The GM/RT2130 standard requires crash tests to be completed for all the necessary components used in the manufacture of the emergency lighting.

Flexible

Emergency lighting can be integrated inside the main lights or supplied as dedicated individual lights. Back-up times can vary for different parts of the train, to meet different norms, or to comply with customer requirements.
