NEW PRODUCTS
LED DOWNLIGHTS
Lumex Lighting
Lumex Lighting has
released a new range of
NovaLED downlights,
which boast a 25%
reduction in wattage to
now be only 8W total
combined with standardised lumen output
up to 770Lm.
Additionally, the Lumex NovaLED range
of downlights has increased its colour
rendering index (CRI) to greater than 90
(CRI>90), providing crisp, clear light output
for any application.
The NovaLED series is the perfect
replacement for traditional halogen
lighting in residential or commercial
applications. All products come complete
with dimmable drivers, expanding
the range beyond phase dimming to
incorporate 1-10V capabilities.
TIMER SWITCHES
Thermofilm
Thermofilm has introduced Envirotouch, a
range of affordable, intelligent, timer-based
switches that allow easy control of lighting
and electrical devices to deliver financial
savings and reduced carbon emissions.
The company says savings gained on one
single switch being used for five years in a
commercial lighting application amount
to $1,104 and 5,466kg of greenhouse gas
emissions abated.
The new range includes multiple preset,
count-down timer options or cycles, so
with the press of a button the Envirotouch
switch will automatically turn off the light
or appliance after the desired time.
DUAL OCCUPANCY SENSOR
Clipsal by Schneider Electric
Clipsal’s 752
Dual-Tech
occupancy
sensors just
got better
with the
release of a two-channel version. Already
available, the one-channel version is
ideal for lighting control applications
or HVAC. The recently released two-
channel version is ideal for simultaneous
lighting and HVAC control from a single
occupancy sensor.
The range features both ultrasonic
and passive infrared (PIR) sensing
technology, up to 600W LED load rating,
the choice of either flush or surface-
mounting and an optional remote
control to make set-up and configuration
faster and easier.
LOAD MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
ABB Australia
ABB is helping commercial and
industrial buildings optimise
power consumption with the
Emax 2 Ekip power controller,
a load management software.
It is an exclusive option of the
new Emax 2, a smart low voltage
air circuit breaker that has been
recognised by Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) – a rating system for green
buildings.
To manage energy
consumption, the Emax 2 Ekip power controller switches electricity supply
off to non-essential equipment and back on again as soon as acceptable
power levels are reached. Intelligent decision making is achieved with
software that uses complex algorithms to decide when it is appropriate
to switch the power, while maintaining the overall functionality or
productivity of the connected equipment.
FIRE-RATED DOWNLIGHTS
Megaman Lighting Australia
The VERSOFIT
fromMegaman
is a fully
integrated fire-
rated downlight
incorporating a
serviceable LED
module to provide the ultimate control.
Offering maximum versatility, the new 8W
downlight incorporates a wealth of features,
including the latest super efficient Megaman
LED module, easy click connectors and
large push button terminals. The fitting
also has ‘Loop in/Loop out’ features to save
on installation time and advanced thermal
design to lower operating temperatures
and extend life. Its honeycomb lens, which
provides a beam angle of 36°, also matches
Megaman’s popular GU10 range, allowing
seamless integration within projects.
