LIGHTWAVE

SMART HEATING SWITCH

With rising gas prices and consumption, there has never been a better time for Lightwave's new Smart Heating Switch, which allows universal switching of any load up to 3680W (16A) rating and can gain smart control of domestic panel heaters, hot water cylinders, boilers, towel rails or electric radiators. Energy monitoring is built into the device and displayed within the Lightwave App. It has output terminals for Normally Open, Normally Closed and Common, which allows it to switch most types of boilers. Built-in temperature and humidity sensors are ideal for controlling the ventilation of a utility room while specific energy tariffs can be entered into the App to provide the representational cost of the energy used. This can be useful when applying the Smart Switch to monitor an electric car charging point, for example.

TUNGSRAM

HIGHBAY RANGE

Whether using a ladder or scissor lift, mounting heavy luminaires above your head is difficult. The new Highbays from Tungsram are extremely lightweight when compared to the light output. Up to 60K lumens can be produced from a single fixture coming in at less than 5kg. These highbays have all unnecessary weight stripped out whilst maintaining the required amount of heat dissipation to ensure a long life. With energy savings at the top of most customer’s agendas, the Auriso and Duros models have on-board sensors that control lighting based on motion (SN), daylight harvesting and motion sensing (RFM) or simply on/off (RFS). These features avoid electricians having to install secondary sensors, saving time and money. Typically, brackets are an add-on accessory that are often forgotten when ordering. Highbays turn up on-site and there is no way to mount them. The Duros and Auriso have brackets built into the fixture. If suspension is required, Y-cables or pendant mounting options are also available.
