Learn more about Connected Lighting and Group Lighting Controls
Facilities worldwide are feeling the pressure to increase safety and efficiency in harsh industrial and hazardous locations as well as meet Environmental, Sustainability and Governance (ESG) goals.
Appleton™ Smart Lighting helps reach those goals by adding lighting controls such as motion sensing, daylight harvesting, and scheduling capabilities to the facility. Smart lighting controls optimize lighting levels when personnel are present to reduce operating and maintenance costs. Identify maintenance priorities and anticipate potential hazards or failures before they become a problem while maintaining facility safety, reliability and compliance.
The Appleton Mercmaster Connect LED Luminaire is a full-feature WirelessHART connected lighting solution with integrated motion and illuminance sensors in a rugged, corrosion-resistant housing.
Designed for the ultimate performance and versatility, the Appleton Areamaster Connect LED Luminaire is a WirelessHART connected lighting solution with dimmable lumen output options from up to 9,500 to 38,000 lumens.
The Plantweb Insight Connected Lighting application is an industrial lighting control and analytics solution enabling map-based commissioning of lighting controls and analyzes the effect of energy use on sustainability. This app analyzes motion and light level inputs from connected lighting to optimize lighting levels throughout the day. Integrated with existing infrastructure, it simplifies the recording and analysis of lighting energy usage and sustainability metrics across multiple locations.
In facilities with harsh and hazardous environments, increasing focus on total energy consumption and improving the sustainability of operations requires taking a new look at existing electrical systems.
Emerson’s latest innovation in smart lighting for hazardous and industrial locations enables group lighting control of dimmable Appleton LED luminaires. When an electrical dimming connection is made from an Appleton Connected LED Luminaire to a bank of up to 10 of dimmable LED luminaires, the Connected Luminaire's advanced capabilities — such as scheduling modes, motion sensing, or daylight harvesting — are enabled for the entire run.
