2 The Good Old Days: The.59 Cent Solution Simple, Inexpensive, Easy To Operate, Etc. Everybody s Happy. Lighting: 5 Watts Per Square Foot / 50% + Energy Usage

3 The use of photocells on outdoor fixtures has been around for 50 years or more. Dusk to Dawn Operation.

4 It all started in CA w/ T24 in 1978 based on legislative mandate to reduce Energy Consumption. They were running out of power generating capabilities 39 years ago. Brownouts = Code Introduction 15+ Variations later, does it actually work or is it just unneeded government intervention?

5 CA s Energy Consumption Has Stayed Completely Flat Since The Inception of T24 Energy Code. The US Has Climbed Until Other States Began to Introduce Energy Codes As Well.

6 ASHRAE American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, & Air Conditioning IECC International Energy Conservation Commision Most States Enforce Some Kind of Code

7 Lighting Energy Usage Decreased Almost 50% Between 2003 and 2012.

8 Turn Off Entire Floors & Outdoor Lights Based On Time Schedules & Photocells Lighting Control Panel Override Switches

9 You Still Need To Use Time Control and Photocells For Certain Areas. Mandatory Use Of Occupancy Sensors Mandatory Daylighting Requirements Mandatory Plug Load Requirements Mandatory Dimming In Certain Areas Pushing Individual Fixture Level Control

10 Introduced 35+ years ago. More Energy Efficient Than Time Schedules. WA Code Makes Them Mandatory in Certain Areas: Open Offices Copy Rooms Private Offices Restrooms Conference Rooms Classrooms Storage Areas Lounges Lunch/Break Rooms Closets C WHY MANDATE?

11 Occupancy Sensors SENSOR TIME DELAY (MINUTES) Space min. impact Break Room 29.0% 25.0% 21.0% 17.0% 23% Classroom 58.0% 56.0% 54.0% 52.0% 3% Conference Room 50.0% 46.3% 42.7% 39.0% 32% Private Office 38.0% 34.7% 31.3% 28.0% 11% Rest Room 60.0% 55.7% 51.3% 47.0% 9% More Energy Efficient Than A Time Schedule The Biggest Savings Are In The Least Used Spaces

12 Passive Infrared (PIR) Ultrasonic Dual Technology (PIR/Ultrasonic) Line of Sight Controllable High Mounting Heights Volumetric Minor Motion Sees Around Objects Combines Both Types Limits False Triggers Covers Various Activity Levels Pick The Right Product For The Application!

13 Instruction Sheet Cleary Shows Mounting 3 From Airduct

14 That was 6, not 6. 6 does not mean 2 either.

15 And it definitely DID NOT mean negative 6!

16 For Best Performance Don t mount wall sensors on ceiling looking at the floor. Don t mount directional wall sensors upside down.

17 Don t Mount A PIR Sensor Next To The Urinal If There Is A Stall Next Door. Wall Switch Sensors Nor Should You Mount In A Stall At 7 When There Is A Urinal Next To it.

18 Don t mount wall switch sensors on the ceiling; especially with manual on operation. Can be a little challenging to turn lights on. Sprinkler Head Manual On Wall Switch.

19 WA Code Mandates 3 Daylight Zones Sidelight Applications: Daylight Z1 and Daylight Z2 Top Light Applications C Requires Automatic Controls Zones Must Be Controlled Independently Easily Calibrated From Within The Space Must Dim To Off No Temporary Manual Overrides Allowed Limited to 2500 sq ft of Coverage Only 2 Cardinal Directions Mandatory Dimming In Certain Areas

20 The Human Factor Comes Into Play Your PC is Not Working As The Lights are Too Dim!! -Commissioning Agent Benjamin Rush Elementary School

21 In Reality, They Were Working Perfectly. Daylight Zone: 74.8 FC Lights = 10% Output Non Daylight Zone: 56.3 FC Lights = 100% Output

22 Not Allowing Overrides and Local Control Can Lead To Occupant Revolt, or.. at a minimum a decrease in Energy Savings and an increase in the Office Supply Budget.

23 WA State Code Mandates You Must Automatically Control 50% of the Outlets In Private Offices, Open Offices, Conference Rooms, Lunch / Break Rooms, Copy / Print Rooms, Work Stations and Classrooms. Can Be Done With Either Time Control or Occupancy Sensors.

24 Plug Loads Are Increasing As Lighting Loads Are Decreasing. Plug Load In Most Spaces Now Is Equal To or Greater Than Lighting. Each Charger Pulls 3-4 Watts When It Is Idle. Turn Off The Non- Essential Plug Loads.

25 WA State Code Mandates Dimming in Offices, Classrooms, Laboratories and Library Reading Rooms. Also Calls Out For Even Light Reduction In Most Spaces That Pushes Design To Dimming. Dimming Saves Energy And Increases Component Life. Dimming Adds To Occupant Comfort. LED s Allow Free Dimming Via 0-10V.

26 With LED s or Fluorescent Lighting, Your Energy Savings Is Almost Exactly Linear To The Level of Lighting.

27 Occupant Sign Occupant Installed Filters The Cubicle Tent Given The Choice, Occupants Tend To Want Lights Lower Than The Design Level. Comfort Increases Productivity.

28 WA Code Is Pushing Individual Fixture Control and Embedded Devices. LLLC: Luminaire-Level Lighting Control Each Fixture Is Addressable and Has Controls Embedded Within It For Daylighting and Occupancy Sensor Control.

29 130.1(c)6: Indoor Lighting Controls Positives: Every Fixture Becomes Addressable / Very Flexible Easier Install for Electrical Contractor Negatives: Greatly Increases Programming Time & Complexity Increased Cost: Materials & Commissioning Time Increases Maintenance As Component Count Increases Based on System, It Can Require Proprietary Ballasts/Drivers Functionality Issues If Network Ever Goes Down Checkerboard Lighting Patterns Within Space

30 Uneven Lighting As Each Fixture Is At A Different Level, Including Off. Each Fixture Has An Integral Occupancy Sensor and Photocell.

31 $150 adder for devices and installation in a Fixture. 12 Fixtures in a classroom: $ Power Pack / Occ Sensor & Photocell $400 Material Cost Difference: $1400 Per Room Additional 20 Classrooms: $28,000 Cost* / 726 Additional Devices 50 Classrooms: $70,000 Cost* / 1650 Additional Devices SWC = 5 Programming Steps IFC: 108+ Programming Steps *Material Cost Only. Does Not Include Additional Programming Time Involved. 31

32 Systems Are Moving Towards A Wireless Environment -Reduces Installed Costs -Increased Component Costs -Increased Maintenance & Disposal Costs -Coverage Issues / Wireless & Devices

33 Demand Response HVAC Control Based On Occupancy Current Monitoring / Energy Trends / Alarms

34 Tunable Color Temperature Fixtures Kelven Simulate Daylight In Interior Spaces -Circadian Rhythm -Improve Mood, Behavior, Health, Learning Capabilities, Etc.

35 IoT Opens The Doors To About Anything: Spatial Feedback On Occupant Density and Movement Within The Space

36 Who Manages The Lighting Control System? Maintenance, Electrical, IT, Independent Service Provider, Manufacturer? Today s Systems Save Energy, But Does That Outweigh Maintenance Costs Over Time? What Other Potential Benefits Can Be Gained Through These Systems?
