Luminaires with built in corridor function are a very simple and highly efficient way of reducing energy consumption. Wherever light has to be provided 24-hours a day for statutory reasons, the corridor function helps provide the right light, combined with energy-efficient and cost-effective operation. Automatic switching is based on presence/motion with the time delay set on site to suit the customers’ requirements, where no presence is detected, the light level will fade from 100% down to 10% saving up to 60% of the energy usage. The corridor function does not abruptly switch off the lighting but dims it to a 10% level. Depending on the profile selected the device remains at this light level (“never off” profile) or switches off completely after the appropriate delay (“Switch off” profile).
This economical form of 24-hour lighting is ideal for pedestrian underpasses, underground train stations, stairwells, ATM booths, telephone kiosks, hotels, public buildings and hospitals.
COR option:
Standard profile “Never OFF” (A...100%, B...10%, fade time 32 s, never OFF).
If presence/motion is not detected, from this time onwards the driver dims until the absence light value is reached. This corresponds to the default parameters.
COR1min option:
Profile 2 “Switch off” (A...100%, B...10%, fade time 32 s, switch off after 1 minute).
If presence/motion is not detected, from this time onwards the driver dims until the absence light value is reached and if presence is not detected in the next minute the driver switches off completely.
COR30min option:
Profile 3 “Switch off” (A...100%, B...10%, fade time 32 s, switch off after 30 minutes).
If presence/motion is not detected, from this time onwards the driver dims until the absence light value is reached and if presence is not detected in the next 30 minutes the driver switches off completely.
eCOR MW:
Profile 4 “Adaptive” (A... 100%, B...10/30%, fade time 1s, switch off never off/10min/off in daylight). System driver + sensor. If daylight mode is active - sensor will not detect motion. Once ambient light becomes insufficient system could be set as switch off (lights will switch off after 10 mins of absensce) or never off (lights will remain on at absence light level).
