Wireless solutions for
emergency lighting
Managing emergency lighting doesn’t need to be manual, time-consuming or prone to error. Our wireless lighting control solutions transform traditional systems into intelligent, self-testing networks that automate compliance, reduce maintenance effort and provide complete system visibility.
Smarter testing.
Simpler compliance.
Traditional emergency systems require engineers to manually initiate tests, record results and identify faults during periodic inspections. Wireless automation replaces this with a fully managed, self-testing system that improves reliability, visibility and control. Using a secure Bluetooth mesh network, luminaires, including emergency fittings, communicate without the need for control cabling. This enables central monitoring, automated testing and real-time reporting from a single platform.
- Scheduled monthly flick tests & annual duration tests
- No manual switching or disruption to operations
- Consistent, regulation-aligned testing
Wireless: the route to easier compliance
Our wireless control solution enables your emergency light testing to be carried out automatically. Results are recorded instantly, and faults are flagged in real time. The result is a more efficient and reliable system that not only saves time but also significantly reduces compliance risk by ensuring testing is consistent, traceable, and always up to date.
- Testing happens automatically — no manual intervention
- Results are recorded instantly — no paperwork required
- Failures are flagged immediately — no delays in response
Wireless for emergency lighting: Your questions answered!
What is wireless emergency lighting?
Wireless emergency lighting replaces hardwired control systems with a secure, decentralised mesh network.
Each luminaire communicates wirelessly, allowing the entire system to operate as one coordinated platform, without additional control cabling. The result is a flexible, scalable solution that simplifies both installation and ongoing maintenance.
What are the key benefits of Prime Controls' solution for emergency light testing?
Prime Controls’ Bluetooth-mesh, wireless lighting control system offers a wide range of operational and cost benefits for emergency light testing. Quite simply, our solution automates testing, monitoring and the management of emergency lighting. Here’s how:
- Simplifies compliance with automated testing & reporting
- Cuts costs by eliminating extra wiring
- Easily integrates with existing and new fittings (emergency packs must be DALI-2 emergency to work.)
- Ideal for retrofit of existing buildings
How does a wireless system remove the need for manual testing?
Traditional emergency lighting systems depend heavily on manual processes, requiring engineers to physically initiate tests, record results by hand, and carry out routine inspections to identify faults. This approach is not only time-consuming but also leaves room for human error, with issues potentially going unnoticed between scheduled checks.
Prime Controls’ wireless lighting control solution fundamentally simplifies this process.
Testing is carried out automatically without the need for manual intervention, and results are recorded instantly in a digital format, removing the need for paperwork. Any failures are identified and flagged in real time, enabling immediate action without delays.
The result is a more efficient and reliable system that not only saves time but also significantly reduces compliance risk by ensuring testing is consistent, traceable, and always up to date.
How does a wireless lighting control solution reduce compliance risk?
Our wireless lighting control solution will help you significantly reduce compliance risk by ensuring testing is consistent, traceable and up to date.
Our system carries out regular function and duration tests in line with regulations, while automatically recording results in a secure digital audit trail.
Real-time monitoring identifies faults immediately, allowing prompt corrective action. This reduces the risk of missed tests or incomplete records and improves reliability. In summary, our solution also makes compliance easier to manage, more consistent, and significantly less time-consuming for building operators and maintenance teams.
