Traditional Lamps
Halogen
“Energy efficient soft white” A-line lamps
Halogen Infrared PAR lamps
Compact Fluorescent
Self-ballasted and Plug-in (EB)
Widely used substitute for incandescent/halogen
Issues: Warm-up time, dimming
Linear Fluorescent
Reduced wattage T8s, extra long life on PRS ballast
T5 solutions for new fixtures
Multiple dimming solutions
Dominant solution for commercial/institutional ceilings
HID
Focus on metal halide and CMH
Enhanced performance with pulse-start systems
Reduced wattage opportunities w/ existing systems

• Scalable solution based
on relay panels, field
devices, and software
• Broad range of wall,
ceiling, corner, and high
bay occupancy sensors
• Energy reduction
schemes include simple
switching, ON/OFF time
schedules, occupancy
sensing, and daylight
harvesting
• Photocell portfolio to
enable closed loop
dimming, step dimming,
and dimming integrated
with a relay panel
• Can be integrated with a
building management
system (BMS) and linked
to the “smart grid”
Outdoor
• “Standalone”
controller replacing a
traditional photocell
• Enables ON/OFF and
dimming of fixture
• Wireless, networked
