Computer controls
Lighting-management system helps reduce ongoing energy-demand costs while increasing lighting-system performance. The PowerGate system is comprised of PC software and control devices, which install at the electrical panel, with communication between them taking place using the Internet or an existing corporate network. Using the software, facility operators can program dimming and automatic shut-off on a single lighting circuit up to lighting systems in multiple buildings, flexibly reducing high demand charges and ongoing energy costs.

Hanging in thin air
Wall sconce is a 15-in. in diameter pendant that seems to float in mid-air, as the nearly invisible light source is hidden behind an ultra-flat diffuser. The light that shines against the wall remains white. Opus is ADA compliant and best for use in conference rooms, small offices, and corridors.

Energy-efficient education
The Chisholm Middle School in Chisholm, Minn., installed LightSaver dimming controls as part of an energy-efficiency program. In addition to daylighting controls in classrooms throughout the 26,000-sq.-ft. campus, the school uses occupancy sensors to automatically turn off lights. Lighting is kept at required levels by dividing the classrooms into three zones, based on the level of daylight each room receives. When the amount of daylight is adequate, lights dim to lower levels. Teachers and students also may access LS-4 dimming wall switches for manual control when lighting is not needed during class time.
