Evacuation signs
As one of the types of safe evacuation facilities
It is an important part of "unblocking the passage of life".
In public places such as shopping malls, supermarkets, cinemas, etc
It is not uncommon to see a sign with the words "Running Little Green Man".
It's what we often call an evacuation sign
And this "little green man" is Mr. Pickto
Due to the clean and clear lines, the pattern is clear
And green generally represents "safety"
So in 1987
Mr. Pickto, the little green man
It has become a safe export mark used all over the world
The main functions of evacuation indication signs are:
In the event of an emergency such as a fire
It is possible to help people more effectively
Timely identification of evacuation location and direction
Evacuate quickly and smoothly along the illuminated evacuation signs
Avoid accidents that cause casualties
How much do you know about evacuation signs?
1
Evacuation signs
Evacuation indication signs refer to illuminated signs set up on the ground or near the ground wall of evacuation walkways and evacuation routes to provide evacuation instructions for the safe evacuation of personnel.
Evacuation indication signs should be set up in accordance with relevant national fire protection technical standards and specifications, and should use lighting evacuation indication signs and safety exit signs that meet the requirements of the code to indicate the evacuation direction.

Common evacuation signs
Evacuation signs are usually divided into those with and without arrows.
Evacuation signs with arrows are generally installed on the ground, evacuation walkway or corner, on the wall of a position less than 1 meter from the ground, and in the event of a fire, you can find a safe exit by following the direction of the arrow.
Safety exit signs without arrows are generally installed above the exit door.

The meaning of the different arrows
● Indicate that the "safety exit" is ahead
● Indicate "Safety Exit" at the bottom left
● Indicate that the "safety exit" is on the top left
● Indicate that "Safety Exit" is on the right
●Indicate that you can reach the safety exit either to the left or right
●Indicate that the safety exit is ahead, and this sign should be set up in the direction of evacuation, and generally hung above the lobby and evacuation passage.

●The direction indication sign graphic of the evacuation indication sign should point to the nearest evacuation exit or safety exit;
●For the evacuation indication signs set on the wall, the center line of the sign should not be greater than 1m from the indoor floor (the parts that are not easy to install can be installed in the upper part), the spacing of the phosphorescent self-luminous signs should not be greater than 5m, and the spacing of the light evacuation indication signs should not be greater than 20m (set in the underground building, should not be greater than 15m);
●Evacuation indication signs set on the ground should be continuously installed along the evacuation aisle or main evacuation route; When intermittently set, the spacing of phosphorescent self-luminous signs should not be greater than 1.5m, and the spacing of light-type evacuation indication signs should not be greater than 3m;

After the working power supply is powered off, it should be able to automatically connect the backup power supply.
