Lutron Wireless Sensors Sustainability Energy Savings for new
Lutron Wireless Sensors Sustainability & Energy Savings for new & existing spaces
Market trends that are driving the need for lighting control: ADOPTION OF STRICT ENERGY CODES Buildings are wasting energy by: - Over-lighting spaces - Not utilizing daylight - Leaving lights at full-on
Energy Code – IECC 2009 & 2015 IECC 2009 lighting control requirements • Manual control • Light reduction controls • Automatic lighting shutoff • Daylight zone control (manual) • Hotel guestroom control (manual) • Exterior lighting controls (astronomical timeclock) IECC 2015 lighting control requirements • Manual control • Light reduction controls • Automatic lighting shutoff – Partial On/Manual On – Applies to all building sizes – Occupancy sensors required in several spaces • Daylight zone control (automatic) • Hotel guestroom control (automatic) • Exterior lighting controls (astronomical timeclock) • Functional testing • Efficiency options (enhanced lighting controls)
Occupancy Sensors IECC 2009 IECC 2015 • Occupancy sensors are required in: • Occupancy sensors are not required as long as timeclock is utilized – Classrooms (except shop, lab) – Conference/meeting/training rooms – Employee lunch/break rooms – Copy/print rooms – Lounges – Private offices – Storage rooms and janitorial closets – Other spaces up to 300 ft 2 – Restrooms – Locker rooms – Warehouses Note: Occupancy sensors must be manual-on or auto-on to not more than 50% lighting power except in some spaces (corridors, stairwells, restrooms, building entrances, lobbies)
Daylight Control • IECC 2009 • Separate manual control required for daylight zone. Automatic control also complies. • No lower threshold for requiring daylight zone control. IECC 2015 • Automatic daylight control (continuous dimming) required in classrooms, labs, libraries and offices. • Automatic daylight control is required in all other spaces. • Automatic full OFF required. • Spaces with less than 150 watts need not comply.

Wireless Technology in the Market Wireless communication options: Zigbee, Z-wave, Mesh Networks What is it: • Operates in crowded FCC band • Higher frequencies, like 800 -900 MHz up to 2. 4 GHz • Allows continuous transmissions: same as phones, routers, etc. • Communication reflected & slowed by walls & concrete How it Works: • Relies on switches to relay signal: communication path can change & may result in varying performance • RF channel is shared with other devices creating bandwidth competition and interference • Large systems may take many hops to get messages through
The Lutron Difference: Wireless Reliability Wireless since 1997 Lutron Wireless: Clear Connect Flawless even in high-density installations like large office buildings What it is: • Operates in low volume, low frequency FCC bandwidth within the 431 - 437 MHz • 5 Second bursts of communication instead of constant streaming – to eliminate interference issues & extend battery life to 10 years! • Patented technology How it Works: • 1 main switch sends a signal to all devices at once • Travels through heavy building material easier with no delayed communication • 30’ – 60’ Communication Radium through any building material
Clear Connect RF Technology ® Clear Connect RF • Clear Connect RF technology is a restricted, radio frequency band that all Lutron wireless products use to communicate. This ensures no other devices interfere with Lutron’s lighting system. In crowded frequency bands there is a high potential for RF interference. 2. 4 - 5. 0 GHz: In low traffic, restricted frequency band ensures flawless communication. 434 MHz: • Telephones • Lutron Clear Connect RF technology devices • Wi-Fi Networks • 30 ft through construction materials • Bluetooth Devices • 60 ft line-of-sight (100 ft for Pico ®) • Wireless Security Cameras
