Lutron Electronics has announced a
first-of-its-kind agreement with Cree,
Inc. to embed Lutron EcoSystem®
technology on a chip in Cree® luminaires
to increase energy efficiency for building
designers, contractors and owners.
Each luminaire with embedded Lutron
EcoSystem® technology is designed with
an intelligent, pre-tested microprocessor
directly integrated into the Cree® LED
driver. This design eliminates the need for
additional interfaces, enabling the fixture
and controls to communicate directly with
each other for instant and seamless
interoperability.
Typical energy-saving strategies
include high-end trim, personal control,
occupancy & vacancy sensing, light level
scheduling, daylight harvesting and
demand response.
The Lutron EcoSystem® enabled Cree
LED luminaries yields the most efficient
commercial lighting system in the industry
due to Cree's best in class 110 lumens per
watt and Lutron's proven energy control
strategies that can deliver an additional 60
per cent-plus energy savings.
Digital control and dimming of LED
lighting solutions brings intelligence to
LED control, enables extended life of the
LED solution, and allows flexibility in the
design and control of any space. It can
significantly reduce building owners
operating costs.
