Ektor SafeTest is our new in-built self-testing solution for emergency luminaires. It’s designed for standalone installations where automated testing through Lynk or DALI monitoring isn’t required, giving contractors a simple, cost-effective path to compliance.
Smarter emergency testing
SafeTest takes the hassle out of manual testing by automating regular checks and providing clear visual status indicators. Instead of checking fittings one by one, contractors can activate and monitor groups of luminaires together – making compliance easier, faster, and more reliable.
SafeTest is initially available on Ektor’s Core range of products, providing a simplified testing system that doesn’t require an emergency lighting control system like DALI.
Your path to emergency compliance with SafeTest
How it works
SafeTest is designed to deliver faster, simpler emergency compliance testing for standalone (SPU) emergency devices. By enabling emergency fittings to self-test at regular intervals in accordance with AS/NZS 2293 standards and display results directly on the fitting, SafeTest offers a convenient and cost-effective solution. Devices can be SafeTest-enabled individually or collectively via the mains switch, allowing for a fast and flexible testing process without the need for additional hardware, tools, or software. The straightforward setup means SafeTest devices can fit easily into your existing emergency testing practices—no need to start from scratch.
