A retro-fittable lighting energy management system, primarily to reduce fluorescent lighting energy consumption in existing commercial buildings. In conjunction with local wall mounted light switches in each open plan lighting Zone, the unit provides a centrally located control panel where each lighting zone is automatically switched off at pre-determined times.
The local wall mounted switches (generally located near the entrance to that particular Zone) allow occupants of a Zone to have full local on/off control of the lighting at all times. This manual switch on, automatic switch off control provides much greater efficiency than the Automatic On and Off used in a number of existing buildings. The system allows time-based control via a Clipsal C-Bus System, a existing Building Management System (BMS), a Time Clock with 240VAC relay outputs or similar.
One Clipsal Track 3000 unit allows control of three separate open plan Lighting Zones. More units can be added as required.
The unit also has an auxiliary output to allow time-based switches of cellular offices with Clipsal Reset Switches installed (Clipsal Catalogue Number 5621FVJ). The Clipsal Track 3000 system has been designed as an efficient, failsafe system, to maximize potential lighting energy savings, with no risk of interruption during normal working hours. It is ideally suited to retrofit in multi storey buildings and is easily installed with minimal interruption to occupants. |
