Flex Connectors have added an absence detector to their new range of fos2000 lighting control devices, to expand the choices available to organisations trying to improve their energy efficiency.
Businesses also gain long-term financial benefits from the reduction in fuel bills associated with energy-saving technology.
Flex 7 on-off, daylight-switched and daylight-linked dimming sensors have the potential to save energy in a wide range of environments, including offices, schools and hospitals.
They can provide control for small groups of lights or be linked together for larger lighting schemes through a simple plug-together network.
Lights can also be manually over-ridden by plugging in a low voltage switch drop.
Hugh Gearing, Managing Director of Flex Connectors, which produces the flex 7 range, commented: "I am delighted by our inclusion on the Energy Technology List.
Initiatives such as the Enhanced Capital Allowance Scheme are invaluable in helping manufacturers like ourselves get the energy-efficiency message across to end users.
Energy-efficiency was a primary objective in the design of our lighting control range and it is gratifying to have independent confirmation that the objective was achieved". Request a free brochure from Flex Connectors ...
