SELF LUMINOUS EXIT SIGNS

Non Electrical Tritium Exit Signs are used in many new construction projects were electricity is non existent. Once thought that non electrical signs are battery powered, but this is not the case. SELF LUMINOUS Exit Signs are actually illuminated by tritium gas enclosed in little tubes which are coated with phosphorous powder. This causes Tritium to emit low level energy electrons that causes phosphor to emit light. Tritium Self Luminous sign are non hazardous. The electrons from Tritium Decay cannot penetrate glass or even the skin in the event of an exposure. Tritium lights can be viewed at 125 foot viewing distance. The red, green, or black stencil provides a contrast to make them code compliant and meet NPFA 101 Standards. You can customize you tritium exit sign with a fire retardant housing or aluminum housing for rigorous environments.
