Emergency capable surface lighting with the flexibility of the Roma Select range

KSR Roma Select KSRSF401 is the emergency version of the current Roma Select round bulkhead platform. It keeps the core benefits of the standard KSRSF400 model which are selectable output selectable colour temperature robust surface mounted construction and simple range consistency while adding integral emergency functionality. For specifiers and contractors that matters because it allows normal and emergency areas to share the same visual design and installation approach.

KSR lists KSRSF401 as a Roma Select LED multi wattage and 5CCT surface fitting with integral switchable self-test and non-self-test emergency. That means the product is not just an emergency bulkhead in the broad sense. It is an emergency variant with a defined maintenance feature that can be selected to suit the site requirement. The installation information also confirms a test button arrangement and battery connection for the selected operating mode.

Selectable output and colour for better project control

As with the standard Roma Select fitting this emergency model offers three power settings and five CCT settings from the same body. Output can be set to 9W 14W or 18W. Colour can be set to 2700K 3000K 4000K 5000K or 6000K. KSR lists light output from 1015 lumens at 9W 2700K up to 2135 lumens at 18W 4000K in normal operation. Emergency mode output for KSRSF401 is listed at 233 lumens.

That makes the fitting useful in spaces where you want the same luminaire to deliver both everyday ambient lighting and compliant backup illumination during a mains failure. It also supports stock efficiency because one product can be adjusted to suit different parts of a building rather than forcing you into separate warm white and cool white versions or multiple fixed lumen packages.

Why the emergency format is useful

Emergency lighting is often where surface fitting ranges start to fragment. A project may begin with a standard bulkhead then pick up a completely different emergency body which changes the look of the scheme and complicates maintenance. KSRSF401 avoids that problem. It keeps the Roma Select family appearance while adding integral emergency operation. For corridors stair cores shared residential areas back of house routes and escape paths that can be a real advantage.

The installation documentation also confirms that the fitting uses a LiFePO4 3V 1500mAh battery. KSR provides routine inspection and testing guidance and confirms that the fitting includes switchable self-test and non-self-test operation. That is useful for buyers who need either automated test support or a more manual maintenance regime depending on the building and management arrangement.

Construction and installation benefits

KSRSF401 uses the same core construction platform as the rest of the current Roma range with a polycarbonate body polycarbonate diffuser and ABS rim. KSR rates it at IP65 and IK10. Wall or ceiling mounting is supported and the fitting is suitable for BESA box mounting. The current Roma data also highlights side conduit entry and knockout points on the rim which can make cable entry planning easier in surface wired installations.

Dimensions are 315mm diameter and 72mm depth. For a round emergency bulkhead that is a practical middle ground because it gives a substantial presence without moving into oversized territory. The fitting also sits within a family that includes standard microwave and corridor function versions plus the KSRSF411 chrome rim accessory for projects that want a more decorative finish.

Who it suits

KSRSF401 is a strong fit for communal stairwells corridors service routes residential shared spaces and ancillary commercial areas where emergency lighting is required but a plain emergency only body is not the preferred look. It is also useful for maintenance led projects where one fitting range across normal and emergency circuits makes reordering and visual consistency easier.

Overall KSRSF401 is a very practical emergency bulkhead. It offers the same on-site flexibility that makes the Roma Select range appealing in the first place and adds integral emergency support without making the product harder to specify. For projects that need one consistent round bulkhead family across standard and emergency locations it is a well judged option.
