Intelligent LED lighting battens
01 September 2016
LED Eco Lights has added SMART Sensor technology to its Goodlight G5 LED battens, allowing the luminaires to be grouped and to respond intelligently to a building’s lighting needs.

The company says warehouses and industrial sites can reduce their lighting energy bill by up to 65% by replacing fluorescent lighting in offices, production areas, warehouses, car parks, loading bays and other areas with SMART Goodlight G5 LED battens.
The G5 battens now feature SMART Sensor, a built-in RF wireless sensor which allows full control of the luminaire. The sensor not only allows the luminaire to respond directly to occupancy, motion and light levels, but allows it to communicate with other grouped luminaires. The battens can be grouped together, with one master controlling the behaviour of multiple slaves.
The feature allows lighting to be controlled intelligently. For example, lights can be switched on in anticipation of occupants entering an area, such as when they progress along a corridor or up a flight of stairs. The Goodlight SMART Sensor includes Daylight Monitoring and Tri-level Dimming. All options and settings can be programmed and adjusted by simple remote control.
Goodlight G5 LED battens are a direct drop-in replacement for standard 2, 4 and 5ft single and twin tube fluorescent fittings, but draw just 20, 30, 40 or 50W respectively. The G5 has a lifespan of 50,000h and delivers high levels of light output, offering 110 lumens per Watt with a 120° beam angle for optimum spread. Light replacement can be funded from operating budgets using a pay-as-you-save lease option.
Housed in a sleek body, the Goodlight G5 is shielded by a high density rubber seal that offers IP65 protection against water, dust and corrosion, plus the fitting can withstand exposure to frost, snow and ice. It can operate in temperatures from -20 to +50°C, and is suitable for use in cold storage areas. The G5 fitting is glass-free making it suitable for food and drink production environments. It has an impact protection rating of 1K08.
LED Eco Lights is a specialist in LED lighting for retro-fit applications, and estimates an existing fluorescent batten can be replaced with a G5 luminaire in just 10 minutes. The G5 can be recessed, suspended, surface-mounted or seamlessly linked and is supplied with stainless steel mounting clips as standard for quick and simple installation.
Goodlight G5 LED batten luminaires are available in three colour temperatures: daylight, natural and warm white. They are fully dimmable, and can be controlled via a DALI or 0-10V interface in addition to the RF wireless remote. An optional emergency backup battery is available.
