Cost-saving Controls
Holophane takes its Gen 3 design to another level with the addition of several new controls capabilities to provide additional application flexibility and energy savings.
In addition to the standard internal 7-pin photocontrol receptacle and host of DTL dusk-to-dawn photocontrols, we have added a new optional receptacle inside the glass refractor globe. This permits a clean radio signal to be used via optional wireless network controls from our DTL® or nLight AIR® brands.
The optional nLight AIR system can provide a sophisticated network of luminaires that can talk to each other while also picking up movement via rSBOR occupancy sensors.
