Lutron launches its range of wireless energy efficient light control solutions in the Middle East.

The new Middle Eastern wireless solutions include:

Radio Power Saver
Lighting can account for the majority of a building’s total energy consumption. With many building spaces remaining unoccupied between 40% and 70% of the day, lights can become unnecessarily costly as well as increasing the carbon footprint of the business. Lutron wireless occupancy/vacancy sensors automate the switching and dimming of lights, saving energy, money and time. You won’t have to worry about turning lights on or off anymore as sensors automatically do the job for you. Radio Powr Savr (RPS) sensors by Lutron can be installed in as little as 15 minutes and communicate with compatible Lutron dimmers, switches and light control systems. Using Clear Connect™ Radio Frequency (RF) Technology for communication with wireless occupancy/vacancy sensors, daylight sensors, and wireless controllers ensures smooth and consistent performance. Going wireless also eliminates the need for costly re-wiring and simplifies retrofit and installation.

QS Sensor Module
The QS Sensor Module (QSM) integrates Lutron wireless sensors and controls with Lutron light and blind control systems through the QS communication link. It is easy to install, saving time, energy as well as complying with codes. Powered by the QS communication link no line voltage connections are required. It also has an RF range of 60 ft (18 m) line of sight, or 30 ft (9 m) through walls. As well as containing a 10 year power failure memory it is able to connect to and power up to 4 wired sensors and controls, in addition to featuring Clear Connect™ technology.

Grafik Eye QS Wireless
Grafik Eye QS Wireless provides an easy and efficient way to control both electric light and daylight. Fully customisable, GRAFIK Eye QS adjusts lights and blinds for any task or activity at the touch of a button. You’ll save energy while meeting the aesthetic, functional, and regulatory needs of any project or space.

ESN
Energi Savr Node (ESN) is a smart module that allows for easy integration of wired and wireless occupancy sensors, daylight sensors, and light controls with digital ballasts, 0-10 V dimming loads and switching loads. With one or more Energi Savr Nodes you can control a single space or even an entire floor. By integrating with wired or wireless occupancy sensors and daylight sensors you can save energy and comply with codes. Simple applications using preconfigured occupancy sensing and daylighting modes eliminate the need for system programming. The system can also be easily customised through an easy and intuitive programming application designed for the Apple iPhone or iPod touch mobile digital devices*

PICO
Flexible and easy-to-use, the Pico wireless control can control one group of lights or blinds and its battery powered control requires no wiring. It works with Sivoia® QS Wireless shading systems as well as GRAFIK Eye® QS, and 2 light control solutions. The Pico can also function as a tabletop control mounted on a pedestal, as a lightweight hand-held remote, or as a wall-mounted control. The addition of this wireless control upgrade ensures that not only does the system continue to offer optimum energy savings, but is now even easier to operate and features Clear Connect™ technology.

Sivoia QS Wireless
Sivoia QS Wireless is the next generation of shading technology from Lutron, and the ideal solution for total light control allowing precision control of blinds in one room, multiple rooms, or an entire home or building all at the touch of a button.

It is also perfectly suited to retrofit and renovation due to the elimination of communication wiring between components. You can control the entire Lutron family of automated window treatments through Sivoia QS Wireless, including roller blinds, traditional curtain tracks, tensioned blinds, and Roman blinds. Sivoia QS Wireless maintains the ultra-quiet performance and precision blind alignment that is the hallmark of advanced shading solutions by Lutron.
