Project outlines

The Kenyon College wanted to build a swimming pool that swims in light, but also has the capabilities to achieve maximum reduction in lighting costs.

Nedap took up the challenge and created a control system that allows the owner to take full advantage of the dimmable 400W metal halide lamps in perfect harmony with the available daylight. By using a Nedap Luxon system, which includes photo sensors for daylight harvesting, motion detectors for occupancy detection and time control software for automated scheduling functions, the ideal lighting conditions were created. This way, specific light levels can be set for competitive swimming or training, and maximum flexibility is combined with reductions of both costs and energy.

Ultimate lighting control!
A sports facility is not constantly in use, so why leave the lights on when no-one is around? Nedap Luxon offers a way to adapt lighting to the specific activities being performed in particular environments at specific times. This is achieved by Nedap's automatic dimming systems. The results? Longer lamp life and significant energy savings. That is what Nedap calls ultimate lighting control!
