One
of the best ways to reduce energy consumption is to turn the lights
off when they are not needed. Occupancy sensors are designed to
do just that. But while you've probably seen these sensors before,
there may be a few things you didn't know.
For instance, did
you know that several sensing technologies are used? In addition
to infrared technology, which detects human body heat, many sensors
now use ultrasonic technology, which detects motion by bouncing
sound waves off the objects in its area.
Also, sensors are
not a one-size-fits-all product. Different areas have needs better
suited by a particular type of sensor. For instance, would you consider
that the high rates of airflow in many computer rooms play a role
in sensor selection? It does, and we can help you determine the
best sensor to use in this or any other situation.
