MK has bright ideas on controlling lighting

10 September, 2009

MK Electric has introduced a range of easily fitted sensors to control lighting, which, on average, represents up to 40% of a building’s total energy consumption. Available as flush- and surface-mounting versions, they have external programming dials for adjusting time delay and lux levels. They incorporate a PIR sensor with 360° detection and a 6 m range.

These sensors can accept loads of up to 6 A (1.5 kW) of any type, including CFLs. Lighting is controlled according to ambient light and room occupancy

The flush-mounting version can be inserted directly into the ceiling and is retained by spring clips. The surface-mounted model is mounted onto a back box.
