Intelligent controls for maximum savings

Smart Controls

Smart lighting controls can add an additional 20–30% in energy savings on top of LED efficiency gains. We install and program occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting systems, and full building automation integrations.

Smart lighting controls extend the efficiency gains of LED fixtures by reducing runtime in unoccupied spaces and automatically matching light levels to available daylight. We install and commission occupancy sensors, photosensors, 0–10V dimming controls, and wireless networked systems from leading manufacturers. For clients with building management systems (BMS), we integrate lighting controls via BACnet or DALI protocols for centralized monitoring and scheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are occupancy sensors and how do they work?

Occupancy sensors detect motion using PIR (passive infrared) or ultrasonic technology and automatically turn lights on when someone enters a space, then off after a preset timeout. In warehouse aisles, storage areas, restrooms, and conference rooms, they typically reduce runtime by 40–60%.

How much additional energy savings can smart controls provide?

Smart controls typically add 20–30% in savings on top of the efficiency gains from LED fixtures alone. In high-ceiling warehouses where many aisles sit empty for hours at a time, savings from occupancy sensors can be as high as 50% of total LED energy consumption.

Can smart lighting controls integrate with our building management system?

Yes. We work with BACnet, DALI, and Lutron-compatible controls that can integrate with most commercial BMS platforms. This allows lighting to be centrally scheduled, monitored, and managed alongside HVAC and other building systems.

Are smart lighting controls compatible with all LED fixtures?

0–10V dimmable LED fixtures are compatible with the majority of smart dimming controls. We specify fixtures and controls as a matched system during the design phase to ensure full compatibility and eliminate flicker or dimming range issues.
