Chalmor’s Intelligence at Energy Event 2007


The new Intelligence luminaire received its first public showing at the Energy Event 2007. This innovative light fitting combines the long, efficient life and high light output of the company’s popular Brilliance range with built-in occupancy and light level controls to ensure even greater efficiency and long life.

By incorporating controls in this way Intelligence makes it much easier to adjust the lighting in relation to demand. For example, the fitting can be set to only come on when the space is occupied, or to dim when natural daylight is entering the space. In this way energy consumption is minimised without the need for complex, expensive lighting management systems. Furthermore, it has been designed to be very easy to configure and re-configure without specialist skills.

Even without its integral controls the Intelligence will provide an operating life of 24,000 hours before the 4 x 54W T5 fluorescent lamps need to be replaced. Where required, the fittings can be supplied with long-life ‘Ultra’ lamps to provide a lamp life of 48,000 hours.

With the additional in-built control of Intelligence, these re-lamping intervals can be extended even further, thus saving on maintenance and the cost lamp disposal under the WEEE Directive.

Intelligence is particularly suitable for areas requiring high lighting levels and will provide an output of 20,000 lumens with a colour temperature of 4000K as standard.
