What are luminaire-level lighting controls?
Luminaire-level Lighting Controls (LLLCs) are individually programmable luminaires that contain embedded sensors and compact control components. LLLCs simplify design and installation by reducing the number of components and time required for installation, offering a cost-effective solution to energy code compliance while providing unparalleled flexibility, deep energy savings, and superior lighting experience.
LLLC systems have existed for nearly a decade, are widely applicable across building types, and can save on average 63% of the energy consumed by a traditional lighting system.
Tailored control for every space
LLLCs are mainly used in commercial spaces like offices, warehouses, schools, and hospitals, where the largest energy savings can be achieved. LLLCs should be considered in retrofits and major renovations in existing buildings, and new construction projects.
LLLCs help to seamlessly integrate the following primary lighting control methods.
Spaces are often designed to provide more lighting than necessary. High-end trim is ideal in over-lit workspaces and improves visual comfort, manages energy use, and extends the fixture’s lifespan by reducing overall wear on components.
This feature is ideal for areas with intermittent occupancy such as offices, conferences rooms, restrooms, and hallways to eliminate wasted energy.
This control strategy reduces energy consumption while maintaining comfortable brightness levels and reducing glare in areas with ample windows or skylights like offices, classrooms, and lobbies.
This control strategy aids in increased safety measures and allows for better use of space when layered with motion detection
