Power-Save Energy Company has announced the release of its newest product, the Fluorescent Light Manager.As the world phases out incandescent lights, new more efficient light sources are gaining popularity, and as such, the need for controlling these devices is becoming increasingly critical.
For the past decade, dimming fluorescent light sources has been a challenging task because the ideal device would control the light level to provide comfort for residential and office environments, while at the same time, enabling energy savings especially in commercial installations.
A number of manufacturers offer solutions to this problem; however, all have common deficiencies: high initial costs, extensive changes in existing installations, or the inability to control all the various types of light sources.
Power-Save offers a solution to these problems using patented technology for controlling all Compact Fluorescent Lights (non-dimmable and dimmable) and Fluorescent Linear Tubes (T12, T8, T5, circular) with non-dimmable ballasts.
This Fluorescent Light Manager represents a true breakthrough in technology. Installation is made simple and cost effective since it is a direct replacement of the existing wall switch. Also initial adjustment for size of the light load and dimming can be preset to the customer's preference.
The first model has been designed for a single-phase 120V / 60Hz, 300W load. The unit meets safety standards for Solid-State Dimming Controls, ANSI/UL 1472 First Edition, and CSA-C22.2 No. 184-96. Final design for higher power models (277V / 60Hz, 3 phase – 1200W load) are in progress with an anticipated release to market date of October 2008.
