Universal Lighting Technologies, Inc. has added Zigbee wireless sensors and adapters to their product line.
The Zigbee Wireless Sensor and Adapter allow end users to control luminaires on a wireless mesh network. Both are Zigbee Certified Products providing interoperability with other Zigbee Home Automation™ 1.2.1 products.
The ZB-WOR-A is Universal Lighting Technologies’ Zigbee® wireless sensor. It functions as an occupancy sensor, a light sensor, and dimming controller, enabling luminaires equipped with Universal’s EVERLINE ID Series of intelligent LED drivers to be controlled on a Zigbee wireless mesh network. ZB-WOR-A provides passive infrared (PIR) occupancy sensing and photo sensing for closed loop illuminance control. The wireless sensor connects to a Universal EVERLINE ID Series LED driver for power, data, and digital dimming through a two-wire connection.
The ZB-LRK-A is Universal Lighting Technologies’ Zigbee® wireless adapter. It functions as a dimming controller allowing for control of luminaires on a Zigbee wireless mesh network. Like the ZB-WOR-A, power, data, and digital control are carried on a two-wire connection between adapter and the ID Series LED driver.
“For the ESCO, building contractor or lighting designer already working with Zigbee based control systems, these products offer a simple and cost-efficient way to reduce energy consumption costs with wireless control,” stated Wally Creer, a product manager for Universal. “The Zigbee wireless sensor and adapter also reduce project costs by eliminating the need for control wiring to each luminaire.”
In areas where natural light is available, the daylight function reduces the amount of light provided by luminaires. In areas with vacant spaces, lights are dimmed or turned off to save energy.
