In a bid to improve lighting levels whilst reducing energy consumption, Steinel’s sensors and sensor lights were installed in classrooms, corridors and washrooms at the University of Worcester, in line with the University’s Carbon Management Programme for reducing energy
usage.

Due to the University’s rising energy costs, Steinel were asked to provide a lighting energy survey, which is a free service they offer. The survey indicated where savings could be made, payback times and carbon savings.

The project involved the placement of BLS sensor lights in the classrooms, IS345 corridor sensors in the corridors and HF3360 radar sensor lights in the toilets. The BLS demonstrates its energy saving potential particularly in classrooms and offices. With over 1320 switching zones, even the slightest movement will keep the lights on.

The IS345 is equipped with two highly sensitive infrared detectors in a dual element design as well as a multi-lens with 280 switching zones on 5 detection levels, it reliably keeps watch over corridors and passageways of up to 20 m in length. The IS 345 guarantees perfect detection of anyone walking in a radial direction at a distance of 6 m from the sensor.

The HF3360 responds more or less instantly to any movement in the detection zone, regardless of temperature and walking direction. This makes it possible to watch over large indoor spaces reliably and without the need for major installation work.

All Steinel sensors have a lux and timer control.
