Flexibility
We have also recognized the market need for flexible
and easy-to-use products, resulting in state-of-the-art
connection technologies (Wieland) and modular system
architecture, which offers the right solution for every
application. With the highly flexible LightMaster Modular,
the office layout can easily be adapted to the requirements
of new tenants. Wiring can easily be changed, and
functionality can be adjusted using intuitive PC software.
Integration
LightMaster Modular is based on LonWorks technology,
so all products can be integrated seamlessly into building
automation networks. Our components have been
shown to be interoperable with the products of all major
suppliers in the field of building automation.
Energy savings
Awareness of the need to save energy is increasing rapidly
throughout the world. Focusing on the applications with
the highest possible savings, lighting is certainly one of
the most promising options - 19% of the world’s energy
consumption is used for lighting. Philips has therefore
positioned itself at the forefront of this movement with its
Green Switch campaign.
With our LightMaster Modular system we have chosen
the most obvious method of saving energy, which is also
the most efficient one: we adjust the light level to the
actual requirements. This means switching off lights when
they are not needed (presence detection) and reducing
the light level when sufficient daylight is available (daylight
linking). When both techniques are implemented energy
consumption is reduced by 30-50%.
