Reduce your energy use by a further 50%
Unlike HID, LED is perfectly suited for use with controls
HID metal halide lamps typically require a 15 minute cool down period when switched off before re-strike, making them unsuitable for use
with energy saving occupancy sensors. Whilst fluorescent lamps can be switched on and off, the frequent on/off switching will reduce
lamp life by up to 75%, leading to significant maintenance costs.
LED is not only twice as efficient as traditional light sources, but when used in conjunction with microwave sensing can reduce
energy consumption by a further 48%. Furthermore, Toughbay™ Sensor is 1-10V dimmable as standard so whether you are
looking to implement dimming control now or in the future, significant running cost savings can be achieved at any time.
When combining Toughbay™ 230W with occupancy on/off sensing, an astonishing 75% energy savings
can be achieved against 400W HID without compromising safety in the workplace.
On/off sensing can be the most effective way
to maximise energy savings for areas that are
infrequently used and require lights off when
there is no occupancy.
This makes on/off sensing the most suitable
control solution to use in low footfall areas
such as storage areas and loading bays.
• Without occupancy the lights remain off
• Adjustable hold time from 5 secs - 30 minutes
• Without occupancy the lights dim to 10% - 50% of full illumination
• Adjustable standby dimming time from 5 secs - 60 minutes
On/off sensing
Step dimming
For higher occupancy areas, such as high rack applications, there may be little or
no external lighting contributing to the lighting levels. Having the lights off may
compromise the safety to employees if there are unexpected obstacles along
the dark aisles.
Retaining a low level of lighting when there is no occupancy increases visibility
into areas that are not in use and increases awareness of obstacles or
potentially dangerous hazards.
