Developed for the purpose of street lighting and lighting in proximity to buildings, this controller/ sensor unit, which features standardised powerline communication, permits control of lighting systems using a lighting-level sensor that is triggered by atmospheric conditions. Individually programmable and updateable, iLUX fulfils all tasks of a modern light management system and is thus an extremely safe investment. The broad measuring range of the light sensor just as its special design and isolation from the communication unit are all responsible for the unit’s impressive degree of accuracy. The sensor is pre-calibrated for delivery and, thanks to its digital interface, enables access to measured values in a range from 0 to 64 kLux.

Depending on the measured lux values, the user then controls outdoor lighting via the measured values in digital form, to which end network variables in accordance with Lonmark® are used. Information can be transferred throughout the street lighting network so that different requirements can be met to suit the specific type of street.
