2. OVERVIEW
Ektor Generation III platform introduces you to a new era of emergency lighting control. With years in the
making, the third generation platform builds on the Ektor product ranges’ increasing quality, reliability and
performance. In choosing this Ektor product you can be comfortable that you have the best.
This product out of the box can be wired in any of these configurations:
• Self testing unit
• Standalone unit
• Standalone unit controlled with a switch or sensor
• DALI controlled remote testing unit
And can be used with a central battery system (monitored and non-monitored).
An optional wireless module can be added to allow you to connect to standard Wi-Fi networks for remote
testing and reporting.
Our Ektor Generation III platform also brings class leading technology which increases performance and
reliability including:
• Smart battery charging technology which reduces power consumption up to 90% while
increasing the service life of the battery
• Smart battery conditioning to ensure the best performance from the battery
• 450V Electrolytic capacitors which increase the products reliability
• Highly efficient design to reduce fatigue on the product
For buildings requiring longer durations such as 3, 4 and 8 hours the installer can change the jumpers found
on the unit for automatic scaling of the output. Moreover should you require non-maintained or maintained
output, the installer can select this on installation.

5. MOUNTING OPTIONS
SURFACE MOUNT
1. Remove decal and diffuser as shown in the disassembly instructions in section 4 (page 3) of this
instruction manual.
2. The Mercury III Jumbo has an aluminium backing plate for surface mounting installed by default. Install the
four included feet by pressing into the holes provided and inserting retaining pin. When used with other
mounting options, the backing plate can be replaced with a second diffuser and decal for double sided use.
3. Position and mount the Mercury III Jumbo on a flat surface and fasten with the appropriate fixing as shown in
figure 4.
4. Removing the decal and diffuser allows access to the
Mercury III Jumbo
battery and inverter for wiring,
servicing and maintenance purposes.
5. The disassembly of the
Mercury III Jumbo
is also necessary for the installation using a Rod Mount Kit.
Installation instructions for the Rod Mount can be found in section 5 (page 5) of this manual.
6. The Mercury III Jumbo can be mounted as shown in section 5. The Mercury III Jumbo can then be
wired and reassembled by reversing the disassembly process.

ROD MOUNT
Refer to 01990 EV-RODMOUNT Installation guide included in rod mount kit.
1. When using a jack chain for mounting, ensure the suitable thickness of 2.5mm chain is used for this product.
2. Remove aluminium backing plate and replace with second diffuser and decal as appropriate for installation.
3. The surface cover must be threaded with the chain first before assembly of the Mercury III Jumbo.
Instructions continue on page 6.

NOTE: DO NOT over-tighten
screws when mounting the
rod mount to the Mercury
III Jumbo.
The rod mount is suitable
with tubes ranging from 0-2
metres in length. Weight on
the rod must not exceed 8kg.
The product and rod MUST BE dry and clean before assembly to avoid joint contamination.
1. Disassemble the
Mercury III Jumbo
as shown in the disassembly instructions in section 4 (page 3) of this
manual. This will allow for the rod mount to be assembled with the
Mercury III Jumbo
top cover.
2. Remove aluminium backing plate and replace with second diffuser and decal as appropriate for installation.
3. Ensure rod is mounted ONLY on a flat surface and fasten with the appropriate fixing i.e. masonry anchor for concrete.
4. A 25 tube is to be used, pushed firmly on both ends and fastened with M5 cap screws and locknuts.

7. MAINTAINING YOUR MERCURY III JUMBO
The Ektor Mercury III Jumbo is connected to an unswitched active during normal operating conditions.
When disconnected from the mains supply, the Mercury III Jumbo is powered by a LiFePO4 battery
operated inverter. Due to this, care should be taken when replacing the battery.

4. Using pliers clamp the jack chain and thread through the
Mercury III Jumbo
top cover as shown in figure 7.
8. REPLACING THE BATTERY
1. Use only the LiFePO4 battery recommended on the label found on the inverter/battery charger pack.
No other battery will work in this fitting, other than the type listed.
2. Access the battery by removing the product cover as shown in section 4 (page 3) of this manual.
3. Disconnect the battery from the product and if necessary, cut cable ties to release the battery from its
mounting position.
4. Replace the battery as was previously installed. The battery can be connected in one direction only, do
not force. Secure with cable ties.
5. Replace the diffuser decal and side cover and ensure the green charge light is illuminated. Allow a few
minutes for the battery to charge.
6. Allow a minimum 24 hours charging time before carrying out any discharge tests as per the
requirements in AS/NZS 2293, BCA or other relevant standards.

9. BATTERY LIFE
10. POWER AND BATTERY CHARGE
To maintain the economical life of this product it is required that the battery be discharged and recharged
at least once every 6 months. The battery life can be reduced if the battery is not discharged as per the
requirements of AS/NZS 2293 or an equivalent standard. Increasing the number of duration tests above that
as defined in AS/NZS 2293 or an equivalent standard can have a positive effect on the battery performance as
long as exceed 12 discharge cycles per year is not exceeded
The Ektor Generation III platform uses smart battery charging technology which reduces power consumption
and increases battery life.

11. WIRELESS DAUGHTERBOARD
The Mercury III Jumbo inverter also supports an optional wireless daughterboard. More information and a list
of other accessories can be found in the Wireless design and installation guide. The assembly for
this part onto the inverter is shown below:
Figure 11: Daughterboard assembly diagram
12. SELF TEST/ STANDARD WIRING/ CENTRAL BATTERY SYSTEM
The inverter can be used in an automatic self-test mode which reduces the need for a test switch timer.
The self-test ability automatically disables if the unit is wired to DALI or the wireless daughterboard is attached.
Additionally the third generation platform can be wired to a central battery system. With this wiring the system
cannot report the light status (see Self test support document for more information).
Figure 12: Inverter standard wiring diagram
During the first stage of operation the battery charger charges the battery until full. Afterwards, the unit goes
into a stage which charges the battery periodically. This reduces the battery temperature and reduces the
loss of electrolytes which ultimately increases the service life of the battery. As a result of stopping the charging
process, the power consumption is reduced and only consumes 1/11th of the typical power.
The smart battery charger also offsets the charger time by a random interval to un-synchronise all the
emergency lighting in the building. This reduces the average loading on a building’s infrastructure and reduces
any impacts of surges created by turning on large numbers of products simultaneously.

13. DALI WIRING / CENTRAL BATTERY SYSTEM
The Mercury III Jumbo inverter supports DALI out of the box, a hardwiring diagram is shown below,
optionally an installer can order a soft wiring cable set. The inverter also supports central battery systems and
can be monitored through DALI. When used as a central battery system the devices can be tested with DALI.

14. USING THE INVERTER WITH A SWITCH
A mains rated switch can be wired with this product to turn ON/OFF the non-emergency light in normal use.
This does not affect operation in emergency mode.
Figure 14: Inverter switch wiring diagram
15. USING THE INVERTER WITH A SENSOR
A mains rated sensor can be wired with this product to turn ON/OFF the light in normal use. This does not
affect operation in emergency mode.
