Lux Intelligent is now available with cloud data storage and live system fault and compliance monitoring via a smartphone and tablet apps and web browsers. Users can add any site in their portfolio to the cloud service and get live system data from site, right down to device level. Fault, test and maintenance reports can be generated from a whole site right down to individual devices. These can be shared with colleagues or maintenance partners in a click.
The new installation is in the Pam Liversidge Building, home to the University’s Engineering Graduate School, which was recently completed. The seven-storey building required a fully addressable emergency lighting test system and Lux Intelligent system was selected on the basis of quality, reliability and full compatibility with the identical system in the adjoining ChELSI Building, as well as many other buildings across the university.
The Pam Liversidge Building installation comprises 180 3W LED emergency downlighters, and 70 edge-lit LED luminaires. In addition there are 40 8W fluorescent bulkheads, 40 IP65-rated 8W fluorescent bulkheads and seven decorative anti-panic floodlights.
David Henderson, Lux Intelligent Product Manager for Advanced, commented: “The Lux Intelligent system is used in prestigious and challenging sites, both small and large because of its unique combination of performance, reliability and flexibility. The revamped systems with mobile and remote monitoring further sets Lux Intelligence apart as a system of choice”.
Each luminaire complies with the Industry Committee for Emergency Lighting (ICEL) recommendations and Advanced has full ICEL 1004 approval for the re-engineering of luminaires for emergency lighting use.
