Overview
An intelligent lighting control system moves beyond the simple on/off switch to provide dynamic and automated control over every light in a building. It is a cornerstone of modern smart buildings, designed to enhance occupant comfort, improve productivity, and deliver substantial energy savings. Unique Land Electromechanical is an expert integrator of advanced lighting control systems using open standards like DALI and KNX, as well as leading proprietary systems like Lutron.
These systems allow for the centralized management of an entire building's lighting. Facility managers can create custom schedules, set lighting scenes for different activities, and automatically adjust light levels based on occupancy or the amount of natural daylight available. This granular control not only creates a more pleasant and functional environment but can also reduce lighting-related energy costs by up to 60%.
From large-scale commercial office towers and hotels to luxury villas, we provide robust and flexible lighting automation solutions that are easy to manage and integrate seamlessly with other building systems.
Key Lighting Control Features
Scheduling & Timeclock Control
Automate lighting based on time of day, day of the week, or astronomical events like sunrise and sunset for effortless efficiency.
- ✓ Time-based scheduling
- ✓ Astronomical timeclock
- ✓ Automate exterior & common areas
- ✓ After-hours override functions
- ✓ "Set it and forget it" operation
- ✓ Maximizes energy savings
Daylight Harvesting
Intelligent sensors measure the amount of natural light entering a space and automatically dim the electric lights to maintain a consistent light level.
- ✓ Uses natural light effectively
- ✓ Automatically dims fixtures
- ✓ Maintains constant light levels
- ✓ Significant energy reduction
- ✓ Reduces eye strain for occupants
- ✓ Ideal for perimeter offices
Occupancy & Vacancy Sensing
Automatically turn lights on when a room is entered and off when it is left empty, ensuring no energy is wasted on lighting unoccupied spaces.
- ✓ Motion-based control (PIR/Ultrasonic)
- ✓ Auto-on/Auto-off (Occupancy)
- ✓ Manual-on/Auto-off (Vacancy)
- ✓ Perfect for offices, restrooms, corridors
- ✓ Ensures lights are never left on
- ✓ Hands-free convenience
Scene Control & Dimming
Create pre-set lighting 'scenes' for different activities. With one touch, adjust multiple lights to the perfect levels for a presentation, event, or task.
- ✓ Create custom moods
- ✓ One-touch scene recall
- ✓ Smooth, flicker-free dimming
- ✓ Tunable White/Color control (RGBW)
- ✓ Enhances space flexibility
- ✓ Control from keypads or app
Key Benefits of Intelligent Lighting
Substantial Energy Savings
By using light only when and where it's needed, a lighting control system is a proven strategy for reducing electricity consumption and achieving sustainability goals.
Improved Occupant Well-being
Properly controlled lighting reduces glare and eye strain, and can be tuned to support the human circadian rhythm, improving comfort, mood, and productivity.
Simplified Operations & Maintenance
Centrally manage your entire building's lighting, receive reports on energy usage and lamp failures, and easily reconfigure zones without costly rewiring.
Flexibility & Future-Proofing
Digital systems like DALI and KNX allow you to easily re-zone and re-program your lighting as your space needs change, providing a flexible and scalable solution.
Related Building Automation Services
Lighting control is a powerful tool on its own and even more so when integrated with other building automation systems.
Industry Applications
Commercial Offices
Use Cases: Open-plan office lighting with daylight harvesting, occupancy sensing in individual offices and meeting rooms, and integration with BMS.
Hotels & Hospitality
Use Cases: Creating ambiance in lobbies and restaurants, automated corridor lighting, and sophisticated scene control in ballrooms and guest rooms.
