SPECIAL FEATURE LIGHTING

FULLY INTEGRATED

Designed and manufactured by a team of skilled in-house engineers , Prolojik ’ s open protocol lighting control systems are compatible with numerous other types of building control systems and can be fully integrated at all levels within a building ’ s architecture .
The fi rst of its three systems takes a modular approach to delivering distributed intelligent control of luminaires , with the 16A rated 10-port lighting control modules providing independently addressable outputs . This system is suited to all types of installations where modular luminaries are installed , and regular moves and changes are expected within the space .
The second takes a networked DALI approach , in which a Prolojik DIN rail mounted DALI controller housed in a unit the same as double pole MCB provides full control of 64 DALI devices per channel . This type is ideal for exposed soffi t installations , or where void access / installation space is restricted .
The third is the innovative new Lightmatrix which , works via a structured cabling system that uses Power over Ethernet ( PoE ) technology and data cabling combined with established DALI features . Designed to power and control LED lighting , it provides commercial and technical benefi ts including a 10 per cent energy saving compared to 240V LED schemes .

IN CONTROL

Helvar has launched iDim Orbit , a complete room lighting control solution in a single sensor . Using the latest technology , and with a unique design , iDim Orbit offers features usually only found in more complex systems , whilst maintaining its simplicity and ease of use .
Providing an intuitive user experience , iDim Orbit delivers simple , cost effective and easy to install room based lighting control . iDim Orbit is a fl exible solution comprising either one PIR sensor which provides 7m diameter coverage or fi ve PIR sensors for up to 15m coverage at 2.8m height , to cater for a range of commercial and public building applications . Its built-in light sensor provides constant light and bright out modes for maximum energy effi ciency . The internal time-clock allows for profi le scheduling , and it features mobile App connectivity for easy , quick application specifi c confi guration using Bluetooth technology . iDim Orbit ’ s mobile App features a library of standard application profi les , for example , classrooms and offi ces , as well as a profi le scheduler which enables the sensor behaviour to be altered automatically during the day . Custom profi les can also be confi gured to suit each scenario , with the App able to adjust a two stage sensor time-out , absence or presence detection , light level adjustment and dimming channel offset .

SMOOTH OPERATOR

Hamilton Litestat offers a single-source package for the ‘ fi nal fi x ’ stage of commercial and domestic interiors : quality decorative electrical wiring accessories , circuit protection , and lighting control and multi-room audio systems .
Recent product launches include LEDIT-B100 , a new two way LED dimmer , designed to be compatible with a wider range of mains dimmable lamp and luminaire brands . Hence , silent and fl icker free in operation , the LEDIT-B100 is the perfect retrofi t replacement when used with a standard two way rocker switch – ideal for applications such as larger rooms with two entrances / exits or on stairway lighting .
LEDIT-B100 comes pre-set to ‘ trailing-edge ’ as standard but the dimming mode can be manually set for ‘ leading-edge ’. If the circuit contains a mixture of both trailing and leading-edge LEDs , the dimming mode can be fi ne tuned to deliver a smooth operation and maximum performance .
The latest developments with Hamilton ’ s Mercury lighting control and multi-room audio system include its RGB DMX control option , where a colour-wash can be used as accent lighting to add drama to a space – ideal for use in bars , restaurants and hotels . Matching control plates are available from the Hamilton collections for that totally coordinated look . For further information visit : www . hamilton-litestat . com

AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE

Lighting manufacturers looking to enhance the design and fl exibility of their maintained emergency LED luminaires need look no further than Fulham , with its new all-in-one solution .
The new HotSpot Plus presents a combined emergency solution of LED driver , self-test emergency driver and replaceable battery in one easy to install compact unit , eliminating the cost and need for separate components .
The HotSpot Plus functions as a dimmable 40W constant current LED driver , with an adjustable output current range from 250mA up to 1,400mA which is easily set in increments of 1mA using a simple hand held programmer .
During a power outage , this all-in-one system automatically engages an integrated , serviceable battery which will provide three hours of emergency back up power at 5W or 90 minutes at 10W , with just a 12 hour battery recharge time .
In addition to its programmable output and userselectable emergency power levels , further advanced features of the HotSpot Plus are its 120V-277V 50 / 60Hz input capability and the integrated “ self-test ” functionality .
For fl exibility of embodiment , the Fulham HotSpot Plus is available in two truly compact case sizes , and is guaranteed for fi ve years , the back up battery for three years . For further information visit : www . fulham . com

EASY MAINTENANCE

Sylvania has a rich history in weatherproof lighting solutions and now offers a full complement of these luminaires in its highly successful Evo LED range with the addition of the new Sylproof Superia LED G2 and Sylproof LED .
Designed to provide high quality and energy effi cient lighting , the Sylproof range is ideal for use within dusty or moisture rich environments , including car parks , warehouses , cold storage facilities , work fl oors , industrial applications and under canopy applications .
The luminaires benefi t from a vandal and heat resistant polycarbonate body with a diffuser offering IP65 protection against moisture and dust and an impact rating of IK08 . The body and the diffuser of the luminaire are UV stabilised to prevent yellowing . The diffuser ’ s linear prismatic structure also optimises light output , while simultaneously reducing glare .
Suitable for both retrofi t and new build applications , Sylvania ’ s Sylproof luminaires are extremely cost effective , requiring very little maintenance and with an average life of 50,000 hours . For easy maintenance , the luminaire comes complete with stainless steel fi xing brackets to enable ceiling mounting . The Sylproof range is suitable for ceiling mounted and suspended applications . With an ability to achieve A ++ energy ratings , the luminaire offers an energy effi cient solution for any kind of LED upgrades . For further information visit : www . feilosylvania . com

FIT AND FORGET

LuxBay is a new LED luminaire from Luceco specifi cally designed for high level commercial and industrial applications .
The product has been designed as a replacement for both high bays and low bays and is suitable for mounting heights from 4m – 15m . Trunking , suspension or surface mounting is possible to cover most installation methods .
