Future-Proof LED Fixture Makes It Easier, More Economical to
Instrument Facilities for IIoT Applications Beyond Lighting
BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Digital
Lumens, an Osram
company and market leader in intelligent LED lighting and IIoT
applications, today expanded its portfolio with the new RLE intelligent
LED fixture featuring socketed intelligence and an upgradeable smart
sensor.
All Digital Lumens intelligent LED fixtures feature embedded smart
sensors that enable customization and automation of advanced lighting
controls to deliver up to 90 percent in lighting-related energy savings,
as well as instrument facilities for the IIoT and the opportunity to
unlock additional value through environmental sensing, utility
monitoring, power metering, and more. Delivering the same efficiency,
controllability, and flexibility as the other Digital Lumens fixture
families, the new RLE intelligent LED fixture is additionally equipped
with Bluetooth technology for indoor positioning applications, and
reimagines the Industrial IoT through a unique, socketed and hence
upgradeable sensor design that allows users to capture the benefits of
intelligent LED lighting while ensuring compatibility with Digital
Lumens’ growing suite of SiteWorx IIoT applications for the lifetime of
the fixture.
“Digital Lumens’ advanced lighting technology creates the means through
which our global customer base can instrument their facilities for the
Industrial IoT and realize new operational value in a scalable,
cost-effective manner,” said Dr. Wolfram Unold, CEO at Digital Lumens.
“The socketed intelligence of the RLE intelligent LED fixture enables a
dynamic IIoT infrastructure, which means that customers can move forward
with energy-efficient lighting projects while being enabled to keep pace
with technological advancements across our full suite of IIoT
applications, and the resulting value, over the lifetime of the fixture.”
Among Digital Lumens’ IIoT applications is SiteWorx Sense, which extends
the energy and lighting control benefits of Digital Lumens’ intelligent
LEDs and SiteWorx IIoT platform to the automated collection and
centralization of critical environmental, utility, and production or
process data. With the recently released SiteWorx Sense Alarms feature,
users now can configure and trigger email or SMS notifications when
customized facility parameters, environmental conditions, or utility
usage stray outside expected norms or baselines.
“The value SiteWorx provides to our users, beyond the industry-leading
lighting controls and massive energy savings of SiteWorx Tune, is the
ability to leverage the lighting network to instrument for the IIoT, and
monitor or measure what’s happening across a facility, site, or
enterprise,” said Brian Bernstein, Digital Lumens’ Vice President of
Product. “SiteWorx Sense Alarms is a natural extension of that value, in
that it equips our users to proactively identify potentially unsafe
environments, utility misuse, or signs of equipment failure, and allows
them to take the necessary steps to eliminate waste, avoid unplanned
downtime and, ultimately, run more efficient, productive businesses.”
Digital Lumens will unveil the RLE intelligent LED fixture May 21 – May
23 at Lightfair International 2019, along with demonstrations of its
SiteWorx IIoT applications for intelligent lighting control, facility
monitoring, and more, alongside its parent company, OSRAM, in Booth
#1701.
