NexLight And Clarus Partner To Deliver Next Generation Lighting Control Technologies To The North American Market

 

St. Paul, Minnesota July 18, 2014 NexLight is announcing a new partnership with U.K. and Korean based manufacturer Clarus to introduce a line of unparalleled lighting control technologies to the North American commercial buildings market. The worlds first networked control system that includes integrated 2-Wire digital addressable relay panels and switches, Zigbee wireless controls, and patented revenue grade metering at the individual relay level. All of these technologies are now available with EM4+Web advanced monitor and control software designed to work on all tablet, smartphone, pc and mac devices.

  • ZigBee wireless control and dimming products may be installed as a stand alone solution or ntegrated with the NexLight 2-Wire networked control system, providing seamless control and dimming via wireless communication for most types of LED fixtures.
  • A relay mounted, CT-load metering solution allows load-level metering and validation with accuracy exceeding all national revenue grade meter requirements.
  • EM4-WEB software provides real time monitoring and metering of building or campus wide systems accessible from virtually any hardware platform or mobile device.
  • High performance SCADA HMI level control and monitoring software for high-performance, highly customizable lighting control applications.

NexLight has been implementing design built lighting control systems tailored to meet the specific needs of large and complex commercial and industrial facilities for more than twenty years. Clarus brings a reputation established across Europe and Asia for new building automation technology innovation over the last 15 years. Working together with Clarus, NexLight is able to deliver the same industry-leading quality relay panel systems with the addition of next-generation technology upgrades.

These new combined technologies are now available for design and specification into new construction and retrofit buildings across the country. As always all of our system devices are fully backward compatible, meaning legacy NexLight systems are fully upgradeable so no system becomes obsolete. This future proof system architecture is another major point of difference only offered by NexLight. Electrical engineers, installing contractors and building owners describe this new 2-Wire system as simple to design, flexible to install, and reliable to outlast all other lighting control manufacturers. NexLight 2-Wire systems now provide the tools for building designers to execute sustainable, energy efficient, ASHRAE and Title 24 compliant buildings with next generation lighting automation solutions, achievable today.
