ENERGY SAVINGS

Energy savings is important to end users, and in some instances may be a compliance requirement of the project. When comparing past methods to present and future technologies, there is no apparent single method to solve all energy challenges while meeting the multitude of application specific job requirements. Envoy has numerous options to consider when energy savings is desired.

LAMP OPTIONS

Pulse Start Metal Halide/High Pressure Sodium/Compact Fluorescent/Induction-Lamp choice should be the first consideration when addressing energy concerns. Various lamp technologies offer different capabilities in the amount of light that is achievable per consumed watt [defined as efficacy], and the expected lifetime of the light source.

CONTROL OPTIONS

Consider Envoy’s available control options to vary output and save energy. By harvesting available daylight along garage perimeters, designers can strategically place sensor activated luminaires that can be dimmed during daylight hours. Photo sensors, timers and motion sensors [all available by others] are all viable control methods that can be used to promote energy savings during daytime operating hours.

Hi/Low Dimming [HL]: Available with specific HID lamps and CWA ballast circuits, this option features a PC board within Envoy that allows step dimming through low voltage wires hooked to a control module, making it ideal to harvest natural daylight along perimeters of open parking structures. Compared to the same fixture at full power, this method offers an astounding energy savings of approximately 51% in low power mode.

CF Multi-Switching:Compact Fluorescent makes energy savings possible through dimming or by using multiple lamps and circuits. Fixtures with multiples of two, three and four lamps are able to save energy 33-50% by simply switching 1 or 2 lamps off.

Electronic Ballasts: HID electronic ballasts can be used integrally or remote mounted to save energy 12-15% over magnetic technology and up to 50% energy savings with dimmable electronic ballasts.
