requires Mark 7 dimming Ballast, 0-10v • up to 32% potential energy savings
LuxSense Commissioning
• Measure the light level under each LuxSense sensor with no or negligible daylight contribution
— Light meter required
• If needed, turn the sensor until the required light level is reached (with no or negligible daylight contribution)
• Duplicate this in other rooms when similar daylight and reflectance conditions exist
• Note that Philips LuxSense is not designed for maintaining a constant light level
•
Warning: The reduced light level should be no more than 30% lower than the average installed light level, without
daylight contributions (example: 55fc installed, adjustment down to 39fc is possible)
Optical Characteristics
• It is assumed that the reflection in a room is such that a light level of 45fc on a table (2.6' high) will result in 2.3fc seen
by the controller at 8' under a viewing angle of 45°; the opening angle can be adapted by the sensor ring control,
realizing an adjustment factor between 1⁄3 and 3.
Controls Characteristics
• LuxSense compensates approximately for 50% of the added light (simulated and measured with a fluorescent
light source). See graph at left below. In case of a natural light source, the compensation is higher than 50%.
