Dimmers and sensors can deliver considerable savings, and this in a number of different ways. Dimmers increase the service life of certain light bulbs, but also reduce energy consumption when used at a reduced level.
Motion sensors are used to automatically turn lights on and off, while light detectors measure the ambient light level and calculate the level of lighting required, thereby making the best use of natural daylight.
Save energy at home with detectors and dimmers
You can save a lot of energy by managing your lights intelligently. Not only by making sure they are off when they need to be, but also by dimming them so that you don’t use full power when it is not necessary.
Never leave the lights on
An easy way to save energy is to make sure your lights and heating are switched off when you don't need them. You can install a detector in your driveway or garage that turns the lights on when motion is detected and then switches them back off after a few minutes. You don't have to do anything.
Dim your LED lights
Incandescent and halogen bulbs are real energy guzzlers. Replace them with LED lamps and your energy bill will drop immediately. Dimming your lights will also help you save energy, and on top of that it creates a cosier environment.
Niko's universal dimmers work with any type of lighting and any type of LED lamp. We know that LED lighting is very sensitive to disturbances in the power network, so Niko has developed an interruption suppression function for every universal dimmer, no matter whether it is a flush-mounted dimmer, a modular dimmer or a dimmer for Niko Home Control.
Save energy in the office with intelligent lighting control
It’s important to save energy at home, but it’s as necessary for companies to keep an eye on their energy and gas consumption. One way to do that is intelligent lighting control. This not only helps save lots of energy, but it also boosts employees’ efficiency.
Combine dimmers with detectors for daylight control
With daylight control your system will adjust the intensity of your indoor lighting according to the amount of daylight entering the room. As a result, the lighting level in the room can be kept at a steady level and you are sure the lights are not switched on when the sun is shining brightly.
This saves energy and helps workers maintain their focus. You can even divide your room into zones, letting your system dim the lamps nearer the window more than the lamps near the door.
