WHEN THE PLANT SHUTS DOWN, SAFETY CANNOT.

Maintenance & Shutdown Lighting Is More Than Emergency Lighting

SEE. WORK. EXIT.

From high-output task lighting and extended emergency backup to directional guidance and adapter solutions, THT-EX helps industrial facilities maintain critical visibility throughout maintenance and shutdown operations.

A planned shutdown may stop production, but maintenance work continues.

Once the main power supply is isolated, work areas, access routes and evacuation paths can change significantly. Scaffolding, temporary equipment and dismantled machinery may obstruct normal routes, while maintenance teams and contractors continue working across process platforms, pipe racks, electrical areas and hazardous locations.

In these conditions, lighting is not simply about brightness. It becomes part of the shutdown safety strategy.


THT-EX addresses five critical shutdown lighting requirements:

1. High-output task lighting to keep valves, instruments and maintenance areas clearly visible.

2. Emergency backup for up to 240 minutes, because shutdown work does not always end in 90 minutes.

3. Directional and exit lighting to support safe evacuation when temporary routes change.

4. Adapter solutions that allow existing lighting interfaces to be converted for temporary or maintenance lighting without rebuilding the entire installation.

5. Explosion-proof lighting for maintenance work in hazardous industrial environments.

The adapter is particularly valuable during time-limited shutdown windows. By connecting existing infrastructure with temporary or replacement lighting, facilities can reduce installation complexity, accelerate deployment and make better use of their current systems.

THT-EX provides more than individual luminaires. We offer a one-stop solution covering emergency lighting, backup power, directional guidance, adapter accessories and hazardous-area lighting.

From shutdown preparation and maintenance execution to safe restart, THT-EX helps ensure that people can see clearly, continue working and exit safely.
