Cast Aluminum LED Exit Sign
The Acuity Lithonia LQC 1 R Quantum Series is a single-face exit sign with red lettering for commercial and institutional buildings. It uses LED lighting technology and features universal field-selectable chevrons for directional indication. The housing is constructed from cast aluminum in a black and silver finish. This unit operates without an emergency backup battery.
120/277 Volt Operation
The sign runs on dual-voltage input at 120 or 277 volts, simplifying electrical planning across different circuits. LED illumination keeps power draw low during normal use. With no battery backup fitted, there is no charging cycle to generate extra heat. The solid-state light source runs quietly without fan noise.
Aluminum Housing and Mounting
Cast aluminum construction provides a rigid, corrosion-resistant enclosure suited to indoor environments. The single-face design with selectable chevrons allows on-site configuration of the egress direction. No lamp heads are included, so the unit serves strictly as an illuminated exit marker. Buyers needing battery-backed emergency illumination should choose a different model.

Questions about this item
How do I wire the 120/277 V input on the LQC 1 R exit sign, and what is the step installers often miss?
Connect the supply to the dual-voltage driver using the labelled 120 V or 277 V leads; the step often missed is selecting the correct lead for the building voltage and capping the unused lead.
Which component will need replacement first on the LQC 1 R, given it has no emergency back-up battery?
The LED light engine is the only serviceable part; with no battery to maintain, plan on replacing the LED module once its output drops below code-required luminance.
At what point does the LQC 1 R hit its thermal limit during continuous operation?
The cast-aluminium housing acts as the heat sink; sustained operation at 120 V or 277 V keeps the driver within its rated temperature range, so the thermal limit is not reached under normal use.
