Who is Philips Lighting?

Why Philips - Facts:While we gather – consider the significance of the following:

$32 Billion1 Million700,000118,000

1 in 418917.3%

Philips Global Annual Sales ($11.2B in Lighting)

People buying a Consumer Lifestyle product DAILY

People using #1 Lifeline Personal Emerg. Resp. Service

Understanding Lighting Issues for Today

Need to achieve facility energy reduction requirements

As concerns about energy utilization and its effect on global climate change continue to make headlines, commercial and manufacturing entities are scrutinizing their buildings to reduce energy consumption and comply with federal & state standards for energy efficiency.

Need for Quality Lighting

Adequate Light Levels / CRI

Uniformity/Consistency

Visual Comfort (Eliminate Stroboscopic Effect, Shadowing, Glare, etc.)

Need for Longevity of lighting

Reduces Life-Cycle Costs

Frees Facility Managers and Electricians for other tasks

Cost effective LED replacement solutions

Commercial & manufacturing entities are looking for easy to install, energy efficient, and affordable (attractive ROIs) solutions for the various applications across their facilities.

Need for Safety 10

LED replacements can reduce energy consumption up to 70% of current lightingMany LED replacement solutions are “Plug & Play”. Simple replacement, no re-

wiring.LED replacements are longer life, which require less labor to install and fewer

service calls later.

LED replacements may include technologies to easily comply with ASHRAE 90.1 / Florida Building Code

Unreliable design may cause safety concern

Safety Concerns Type “A” and “B”

• Concerns with having similar Type A and Type B products under the same roof ?

Potential that the lamps can be inadvertently installed in the wrong fixture (i.e. ballast vs line).

• Philips has quantified the specific impacts of the following scenarios:– Philips Type A installed across 277VAC (w shunted sockets and no ballast). – Type A lamp on a type B fixture – may flash, may not come on at all, but will not cause a safety hazard.

• The same installed across 377VAC SAME as above.

Philips Type B installed with in-line ballast (w shunted sockets) Type B lamp on a type A fixture – same scenario, but still will not cause an issue.

• Confirming line voltage would have no impact? Lamp may fail/ but no other issues.–

Smart Energy Saving Retrofit withLumina™ RF Wireless Room Controller System andPhilips® InstantFit LED T8 Lamps with EasySmart

Lumina RF Keypad Room Controller• Acts as the primary user interface and coordinates all the energymanagement functions within the room; provides the Bluetooth interfacefor connection to the Neuron app via an Android or iOS smart device; wire-lessly configure button operation via the Neuron app

Retrofitting LEDs and installing compatible controls isfaster and easier with the Leviton Lumina RFStandalone Room Controller System and PhilipsInstantFit LED T8 Lamps with EasySmart Technology.In three easy steps, you can have a space configuredtomeet your unique lighting needs and meet lightingcontrol requirements for IECC, ASHRAE 90.1 andTitle 24.

Lumina RF Wireless PIR Occupancy Sensor• Controls the load directly, detects occupancy and communicates to andreceives commands from the Lumina RF Keypad; wirelessly configure via theNeuron app for occupancy (auto-ON/auto-OFF) or vacancy (manual-ON/auto-

OFF) operationThis advanced wireless control system provides a rangeof options to meet the specific lighting needs of eachspace by using the Leviton Bluetooth®-enabled Neuronapp to configure the system.

Lumina RF Wireless Photocell• Detects light levels and communicates to and receives commands from theLumina RF Keypad; wirelessly configure via the Neuron app

Leviton Blueooth-enabled Neuron App• Wirelessly communicates to the Lumina RF Keypad via Bluetooth toconfigure, control and monitor the system with dimming, multi-zone daylight

harvesting, occu- pancy or vacancy sensing, manual control, and scenecapabilities

Philips InstantFit LED T8 Lamps with EasySmart Technology• Converts existing lighting to LED by simply replacing existing lamps;EasySmart technology allows the lamps to wirelessly communicate to theLumina RF Keypad Room Controller and dim based on user preference ordaylight harvesting settings

SMART ANDSIMPLE LED LAMPS AND WIRELESSCONTROLS INSTALLATION

1. Simply replace existing lamps in old fixtures with InstantFit LED T8lamps with EasySmart—no need to replace existing ballasts and norewiring needed

2. Install the Lumina RF Keypad Room Controller(DLDNK), optionallyinstall the Lumina RF Wireless Occupancy Sensor (ZSC04), Lumina RFWireless Photocell (LURPC), and Remote Keypads (DLDNK) for addedfunctionality

3. Configure the system with the LevitonNeuron app and you’re done!
