Energy Saving Systems
The innovation of Fluoresave.
|
Fluoresave is a microprocessor-controlled, energy saving unit for standard magnetic ballast fluorescent and other discharge lighting such as sodium, mercury and metal halide, which saves power consumption by up to 30%+ with an imperceptible effect on light levels. Fitted at or near the main distribution board, the fluoresave units are easily installed into existing lighting circuits and no modification Western union money transfer is required to the existing light fittings. fluoresave has a proven performance and reliability record around the world since 1996, significantly cutting energy bills and delivering a payback in 3 years depending upon the unit price, paid for power and the hours that the lighting is run. Documented cases show savings ranging from 20% to 52%

How it Works
The fluoresave unit supplies mains voltage for ignition. The unit allows a short time delay period for lamp warm-up to ensure stable operation of the lights, before switching to a lower energy saving voltage. Each unit comes factory set to reduce the voltage by 15% for maximum savings, however for certain types of lamps a 12.5% or 10% reduction may be selected. Single or multiple lighting circuits and mixed lamp types can be controlled by a single fluoresave unit making it very versatile and economic to install.
By reducing the voltage to the lamps fluoresave reduces their running temperature, thus extending their life considerably. This has a valuable impact on lamp replacement costs and on the environmental impact of lamp disposal.
The burning of fossil fuels for electrical power production generates enormous greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon and other environmentally destructive elements. The Kyoto World Greenhouse Gas Emissions Agreement requires us to reduce our carbon emissions. The beneficial effect of reducing the environmental impact of energy creation cannot be overstated. For users, fluoresave can aid ISO 14001 compliance, improve energy ratings under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and offer carbon trading opportunities.
