Lighting Controls & Public Safety

Illuminating Public Safety: How Lighting Control Systems Can Make a Difference

Imagine a world where streetlights automatically adjust their brightness based on the surrounding traffic, emergency exit signs glow brightly during a power outage, and motion sensor lights deter potential intruders from lurking in the darkness. This world is not a distant dream but a reality with lighting control systems. 

Envocore empowers businesses, industries, and institutions with the latest lighting control technology, supporting public safety and energy conservation efforts. Our superior lighting control systems, which feature motion sensors, timed lighting, and emergency lighting integration, enable organizations to operate efficiently while maintaining the utmost security and safety. Join us as we explore the vast potential of lighting controls and how they’re shaping the future of the industry for the better, one connection at a time.

Types of Lighting Control Systems and Their Applications

Motion Sensors: A Smart Way to Respond

Thanks to their advanced technology and intelligent features, motion sensor lights are an indispensable element of public safety infrastructure. These lighting systems detect movement and instantaneously illuminate the surrounding areas, providing a heightened sense of security in diverse settings like parking lots, public parks, and pathways. In addition to deterring accidents and potential criminal activities, motion sensor lights promote energy conservation through their selective activation mechanism, turning on only when needed. It’s clear that these innovative solutions are revolutionizing public safety by optimizing security, efficiency, and sustainability – a winning combination that Envocore is proud to champion.

Timed Lighting: Ensuring Safety Around the Clock

Time-based lighting control systems precisely schedule when the lights should be turned on or off. This feature is especially beneficial in public spaces operating on a specific timetable, such as commercial buildings, shopping centers, and institutions; by ensuring that areas are well-lit during operational hours and conserving energy during non-peak times, timed lighting systems strike a balance between safety and efficiency.

Emergency Lighting Integration: Guiding the Way in Crisis

Having reliable emergency lighting is crucial to guide people to safety during emergencies or power outages. Lighting control systems can seamlessly integrate emergency lighting into the overall infrastructure, ensuring that exit signs, stairwell lights, and emergency fixtures properly function when needed.

Benefits of Incorporating Lighting Control Systems

Public Safety: A Brighter Path to Security

The power of well-lit areas should not be underestimated – they instill a sense of security, minimize the risk of accidents, vandalism, and criminal activities, and promote a safer environment for individuals to thrive in. Our advanced lighting control systems, equipped with features such as motion sensors and emergency lighting integration, provide pedestrians, employees, and customers peace of mind, ensuring that public spaces are welcoming and safe for everyone. Envocore’s commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency is central to our approach, and we take pride in offering solutions that help organizations achieve their goals while contributing to a more sustainable world.

Improved Efficiency: Saving Energy, Saving Costs

Lighting control systems are essential to creating a safer and more sustainable environment. These systems prioritize safety and facilitate improved efficiency and energy savings. Integrating intelligent features such as motion sensors and timed lighting effectively curtails excessive energy consumption. Lights are intelligently activated only when necessary, and during non-operational hours, energy is conserved. The resulting reduction in carbon footprint contributes to a greener future while simultaneously leading to substantial cost savings for individuals and businesses.

Case Study: Arizona State University

One shining example of how lighting control systems can revolutionize public safety is the case of Arizona State University (ASU). ASU, a leader in sustainability, implemented lighting control solutions to achieve its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2025. ASU achieved remarkable results by installing 40,000 interior LED retrofits and over 1,500 occupancy controls. The project led to significant energy savings, with annual kWh and kW reduced by 563 and 521, respectively. Moreover, the university saved an impressive $507,000 in energy and HVAC costs annually.
