Optimized Shop Windows Lighting through light sensitive switches

Value proposition

• Shop owners need to light up the shop window at nightfall and save energy by automatically switching off the lighting late at night when the streets are empty.
• They also want to prevent the lighting from switching on non-working days.

• Programmable light-sensitive automatically switch shop-window lighting according to brightness and/or the time of the day.
  

• This solution provides significant energy savings by limiting the shop window lighting only when exterior lighting level is below a pre-defined threshold. Compared to permanent lighting, savings can go up to 50% of the energy consumption .
  
• In addition, IC 2000p+ increases energy savings by automatically extinguishing the lighting when there are fewer passers-by (late at night and on non-working days for instance). These additional savings could be as high as a further 25% when switching the light off from 11:00 p.m. to 05:00 a.m.
