GJD Manufacturing is celebrating 25 years of successful manufacturing and innovation in PIRs and lighting controllers.
In a small workshop in Bolton in 1983, production of a small internal PIR began, then along came an external PIR which was housed in a modified car's rear fog lamp plus a lighting control box.
In the following 2 years the increases in sales funded the development of single and two- zone security lighting controllers followed by a new external PIR and an expanded range of M... [more]
Stroma Accreditation, the Communities & Local Government (CLG) approved governing accreditation body for both commercial and domestic energy assessments, has become the first company to issue an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for a non-domestic building.
The Energy Assessment was carried out by Rob Molyneux, Senior Energy Assessor at sister company Stroma Technology, who recently became the first accredited Energy Assessor in the country qualified to carry out Level 4 and 5 assessments ... [more]
Lighting accounts for approximately 23% of all electricity consumption in industrial areas around the globe. Most high rise buildings consume over 50% of their energy in lighting. Federal and state mandates and incentives are placing new demands on both consumers and suppliers of electrical power. Improvements in technologies for efficient power use will help companies comply with new regulations, and take advantage of market incentives.
Low Carbon Accelerator Limited has made an investment o... [more]
iLight's intelligent lighting control systems can now interface with NetStreams' DigiLinX distributed audio systems thanks to the release of a new driver. The driver allows two-way communication between iLight iCAN systems and DigiLinX IP-based audio and control systems.
The DigiLinX system distributes audio over CAT5e cable using TCP/IP on a segmented section of an Ethernet network, with no additional networking equipment requirements. It converts audio from a legacy source, in real-time, in... [more]
When Leeds Metropolitan University decided to acquire and completely refurbish a former BBC television studio, it found that a sophisticated lighting control system based on products from the Clipsal brand of Schneider Electric was the key to maximising the versatility and convenience of the facilities within the new premises.
The lighting control system serves four main areas – a mock boardroom, which can also be used as a video-conferencing room; a teacher training area which has an extensi... [more]
ABB has a launched a new generation version of its Dynacomp dynamic response compensator developed to provide fast and smooth reactive power compensation to solve a variety of industrial network power quality problems associated with fast variable loads such as: low power factor, voltage sags, flicker and high harmonic levels.
The Dynacomp acts as an ultra-rapid and transient free capacitor bank with the reactive power step switching carried out by state-of-the-art thyristor... [more]
