Osram Sylvania Wireless Area Lighting Controller for Encelium Energy Management System

Osram Sylvania

Osram Sylvania is expanding the capabilities of the Encelium Energy Management System (EMS) with the new wireless area lighting controller (WALC), which allows a group of lighting devices tocommunicate via a wireless mesh network based on ZigBee standards. The WALC connects groups of 0-10V dimmable luminaires for group dimming or switching applications. The GreenBus II port allows integration of ENCELIUM GreenBus II products into the wireless network for tailored lighting experiences, such as the use of dual technology sensors, relay panels or phase cut dimming applications.

The 20A WALC is unique in the market with its universal voltage operation (120-347V input), UL 924 emergency rating, and rugged design so it can control a range of applications from emergency lighting to extreme conditions with temperatures as low as -40ºF. It is also the industry’s first wireless area controller to be available with a damp rating for installations subject to moderate degrees of moisture such as basements and parking garages, as well as partially protected locations under canopies, marquees and roofed open porches.
Individually addressable with the Encelium Energy Management System (EMS), the WALC switches a single-wired zone of multiple luminaires ON or OFF via an integral high current relay while setting the zone’s overall light level through the control wiring of a fixtures’ dimmable ballasts or LED drivers. The high current rating of the WALC allows the system to switch an entire circuit of electrical loads or plug loads, eliminating the cost for using standard power relays or switch packs.

The WALC connects to the Encelium Energy Management System, a scalable lighting control system that enables owners to elevate the cost effectiveness and occupant experience of their lighting spaces with just a click of the mouse. This latest addition of the WALC further expands this system to hard-to-reach locations seeking less hassle and cost associated with installing wires for digitally controlled lighting.
