The Energy Conservation Systems
Universal Dimming Systems can be used in most applications to reduce
energy consumption. The ECS ‘LightSave’ is an energy saving device
which operates by reducing the voltage to a lighting load thereby
reducing the power consumed. It cuts energy bills by up to 30% with
only a 15% reduction in light output (NATA accredited laboratory
test results). Lamp life is maintained by ensuring full voltage
at
start-up.
If it is inappropriate to reduce light output, LightSave can often
be used in conjunction with widely available replacement fluorescent
lamps to produce the same energy savings and no reduction in light
levels.
The LightSave energy controller operates at full power for an initial
startup period of 5 minutes. This facilitates starting of the lamp
at normal voltages. Unlike other devices, LightSave is designed
to be installed in the switched line of the controlled load rather
than at the distribution board and is therefore unaffected by switching
of adjacent loads.
