1 GE Lighting control Aware Occupancy and Photo Sensors

efficiency meets intelligence In addition to switches and scheduling, you can further increase efficiency and save money on energy with Aware Occupancy and Photo Sensors.

2 efficiency meets intelligence In addition to switches and scheduling, you can further increase efficiency and save money on energy with Aware Occupancy and Photo Sensors. A recent study has shown that utilizing occupancy and photo sensors saves an average of 30-40% on energy costs.* Aware is a comprehensive line of GE sensors that offers solutions for almost any application. Whether you need a sensor that is commercial or industrial, indoor or outdoor, ultrasonic or passive infrared or both you re sure to find it with Aware. dynamic The most efficient lighting control systems use a combination of time-based automation, astronomical features, daylight harvesting and occupancy interaction. Integrating Aware Occupancy and Photo Sensors into a complete control unit like LightSweep Modular Lighting Control System will help you maximize efficiency and energy savings. * A Meta-Analysis of Energy Savings from Lighting Controls in Commercial Buildings, performed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Erik Page & Associates, Inc., 2011.

Aware Occupancy Sensors Occupancy sensors go a step beyond scheduling by detecting motion within a space and switching the lights On and Off as needed.

3 Aware Occupancy Sensors Occupancy sensors go a step beyond scheduling by detecting motion within a space and switching the lights On and Off as needed. Occupancy sensors are ideal for spaces that are intermittently occupied. Because of their easy installation, user convenience and maintenance-free operation, occupancy sensors are one of the most preferred lighting control solutions. Our line of Aware Occupancy Sensors allows you to conserve energy and save money when illumination isn t necessary, while minimizing occupant annoyance caused by false activations or scheduling. Designed with flexibility in mind, Aware Occupancy Sensors can be used as stand-alone units for local control or as part of a greater unit, like the LightSweep Modular Lighting Control System.

4 choosing a sensor room size large up to 2,000 sq ft ceiling height high 40 ft medium up to 1,000 sq ft small up to 500 sq ft medium low 25 ft 12 ft When selecting a sensor for a space, there are a few considerations that will impact your decision. Knowing the type of space and its function, the size and ceiling height, and the activity going on in the space are all factors that will help you choose the right sensor for each application. One consideration in choosing a sensor is the size and ceiling height of the area. In general, Aware wall switch sensors are used for smaller rooms, while our ceiling sensors include options for areas up to 2,000 square feet. Corner/ wall sensors are often chosen for long hallways or corridors. For warehouses or other environments with high ceilings, fixture-mounted sensors may be the best solution. Your GE sales rep can help you assess your situation and choose the right sensors for each area.

5 technology The design of the room and the amount of activity happening within the space will determine the level of sensitivity you need in your sensor. Aware Occupancy Sensors are available in three distinct technologies, so that you can be sure to find the appropriate solution for your space. ultrasonic Ultrasonic sensors detect occupancy by emitting a high-frequency signal and interpreting changes in frequency as motion. Ultrasonic sensors do not require a direct line of sight, meaning they can see around corners and objects. They are also highly sensitive to motion even minor hand movement. Most suitable for open spaces, spaces with obstacles in the sensor s line of sight, restrooms and spaces with hard surfaces. passive infrared (PIR) Designed to detect motion from a heat-emitting source, PIR sensors switch lights On and Off when a person enters or exits their field of view. Best for applications that offer a direct line of sight to the source that creates the motion, such as enclosed spaces, areas where the sensor has a view of activity, outdoor areas and warehouse aisles. dual tech Dual Tech sensors combine PIR and ultrasonic technology. Lights are only activated when both sensors detect occupancy eliminating false activation and require one of the technologies to keep the lights on, significantly reducing the possibility of a false deactivation. Classrooms, conference rooms, areas with heavy airflow or other conditions where a higher degree of detection is preferred.

sensor mounting Aware Occupancy Sensors come in four mounting options. The kind of sensor you choose depends on the type, size and function of the space.

6 sensor mounting Aware Occupancy Sensors come in four mounting options. The kind of sensor you choose depends on the type, size and function of the space. No matter your application, Aware Occupancy Sensors can increase your efficiency and save on energy costs. ceiling Aware Ceiling Sensors attach directly to the ceiling in the center of a room. They work best in large, open spaces, spaces with obstacles such as partitions, and narrow spaces. Generally, ceiling sensors are used in rooms with a maximum height of 12 feet. Open office areas, conference rooms, hallways and corridors Aware Ceiling Sensors are available with the following features: Ultrasonic, Infrared and Dual Tech sensing 180- or 360-degree viewing area Small, medium or large room options Photocell capability Form C relay Extreme temperature and open air options (max. height 25') AWARE CEILING SENSORS SKUs PC DESCRIPTION PC DESCRIPTION CIR D CIR D CDT R CUS CUS CUS R CUS R CDT R CUS CIR D-T CUS R CIR-2H-360-D-T Requires a switchpack or connection to centralized control unit like LightSweep Modular Lighting Control System.

7 corner/wall Aware Corner/Wall Sensors attach either directly to the wall or to a corner between two walls. Corner/wall sensors are used for similar applications to ceiling sensors, but sometimes offer a more convenient mounting location. Ceiling sensors may look out into a hallway from a door or window and be triggered by foot traffic, whereas a corner/wall sensor can be placed strategically to look away from unintended traffic areas. For areas up to 1,200 square feet. Office areas, conference rooms, hallways and corridors Aware Corner/Wall Sensors are available with the following features: Infrared and Dual Tech sensing 180-degree viewing area Photocell capability Long (hallway) or wide (room) composition Form C relay AWARE CORNER/WALL SENSORS SKUs PC DESCRIPTION SIR-WIDE SIR-WIDE-D SDT-WIDE SDT-WIDE-D SIR-LONG SIR-LONG-D Requires a switchpack or connection to centralized control unit like LightSweep Modular Lighting Control System.

8 sensor mounting (cont.) wall switch Ideally suited for On and Off control of small and medium spaces, Aware Wall Switch Sensors are designed to replace a standard wall switch to provide enhanced automatic switching based on occupant motion. Wall switches are best for spaces free from obstructions of the line of sight from switch location, room orientation or furniture placement. For areas up to 1,000 square feet. Individual offices, restrooms and break rooms. Aware Wall Switch Sensors are available with the following features: Infrared and Dual Tech sensing Line voltage (directly replaces wall switch) or low voltage (for switchpacks or LightSweep ) Single or dual relay Single or dual relay Five colors available: white, ivory, light almond, gray, black AWARE WALL SWITCH SENSORS SKUs PC DESCRIPTION WDT-10-SR-G-D-W WDT-10-DR-G-D-W WIR-10-SR-G-D-W WIR-10-SR-C-D-W WIR-10-DR-G-D-W AWARE WALL SWITCH SENSORS SKUs (LOW VOLTAGE) PC DESCRIPTION WIR-10-LV-W WIR-10-RR7-D-W Above-listed products available in white.
