Lighting Control Modules - Building Management - Addressable Lighting - Lighting Control Systems

The Intelligent Solution Limited (The IS) has been providing lighting control solutions in buildings for many years. Over the past 7 years we have seen tremendous growth and are now recognised as an industry market leader. We have completed over 2,000 projects ranging from commercial offices, schools, colleges and hospitals to residential properties and the leisure sector including pubs, restaurants and hotels. We pride ourselves on our flexibility, in our understanding of clients’ requirements and our product development, which enables us to continually stay one step ahead of the market and competition.

Lighting control modules come in a wide range of products offering 10 independently addressable outputs on all our lighting control modules. These can be switching, 1-10V or DSI/DALI with the latter providing individually configurable ports for either type of dimming so that you could have a mixture of switching, DSI and DALI fittings all on the same LCM.

DALI Monitoring Facility

The IS was also one of the first lighting control suppliers to be able to offer the DALI monitoring facility from the LCM without the need for additional equipment in the luminaire using the DALI inverter, in conjunction with our systems partner CP Electronics. This gives full monitoring, status feedback and emergency testing and reports to BS5266, EN50172 and the new test requirement of IEC62034. All widely accepted forms of control are available from us including presence detectors, daylight linking, dimming, hard wired lighting control modules, scene setting, DMX, AV interfacing and interfacing with most other types of control required within this market sector.

Graphical Front End PC Operating Platform

Development has played a key role in our success in the marketplace. The highly successful graphical front end PC operating platform enables users to monitor and reconfigure any product on the system. Any device can be graphically depicted including status of every luminaire and if fitted with a DALI ballast the health of the lamps, ballast and connections. If used with the emergency inverter the battery and inverter will also be reported on the system. The front end works in a Window™ format providing a full scheduling calendar to test to all of the BS emergency testing requirements. Any scene set plate can be graphically depicted and controlled from the head-end. DALI sub address modules have been introduced to the range allowing up to 64 pre-address DALI ballasts to be controlled on a single network pair, ideal for applications such as Chilled Beam installations.

Architectural Faceplates / Accessories

New architectural products are being introduced all the time. A new range of scene set plates based on the Wandsworth Group Series 2 & 3 range of face plate has been developed. Programming from the plate now allows the user to re-configure up to 8 scenes. New trailing and leading edge phase dimmers are also available. The IS recognised right at the start the need for the highest levels of support both internally and externally, which is why we have a fully dedicated in house CAD department working to the latest version of AutoCAD® 2011. We have the largest direct employed service and commissioning team, offering 1st class support in the field. We continue to both develop new innovative products and to support them, providing the industry as the number one supplier of lighting control systems.

Integrated Modular Wiring

The specification and installation of "modular wiring" is rapidly becoming standard practice across all construction sectors, and the integration of modular wiring with lighting control systems has been a natural development. The system comprises a range of factory built and tested cable assemblies and enclosures, which are quickly and easily connected together on site to form a complete electrical installation. The integration of control wiring for lighting control and building management systems enables the simultaneous installation of multiple services, thereby greatly reducing overall installation times. To support this product range we provide detailed planning and installation drawings in AutoCad format.
