Case Study: South Lander Business Park Adopts Luminaire Level Lighting Controls

Seattle’s South Lander Business Park boasts a variety of tenants from small retail spaces to large warehouses – all with differing lighting needs that may change over time. Starting in 2016, the owners knew they needed to upgrade their outdated fluorescent lighting to something more adaptable, flexible and cost-effective. The answer? LED fixtures with luminaire level lighting controls (LLLCs).

    How an LLLC Retrofit Stacks Up Against a Networked Lighting Controls Redesign

    Having a sensor in each luminaire simplifies installation and programming, providing versatility and expanded potential design solutions for new construction, existing building renewal, and lighting retrofits. A study from the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance and the University of Oregon’s Energy Studies in Buildings Laboratory evaluated how LLLC systems stack up as a cost-competitive 1:1 retrofit alternative that provides comparable performance to NLC redesign solutions

    Case Study: Pacific Tower Installs Luminaire Level Lighting Controls

    Seattle’s Pacific Tower was an iconic building with a big facility maintenance challenge: its older systems were inefficient and falling short in meeting occupants’ expectations. After the Washington Department of Commerce signed a 30-year lease to take over Pacific Tower, the team wanted to implement bold system upgrades and energy conservation measures to bring the building into the modern era and provide a better lighting experience for occupants.

    • LLLC: The Future of Efficient Lighting

      Luminaire Level Lighting Controls (LLLC) take energy efficient LEDs to the next level by applying control. With lighting control, owners and managers can tailor lighting systems to maximize energy use, optimize tenant comfort, and integrate additional building energy efficient systems for overall improved operational performance.

    • Low Wattage T8 Lamps

      There are few energy efficient upgrades easier to address. Replacing 32W T8 lamps with 25W lamps reduces energy consumption and utility costs, minimizes maintenance, increases the lamp’s lifetime hours up to 50% longer, and simplifies installation.
