Daylight Sensor Lighting Control Design

Daylight Sensor Lighting Control Design

Nowadays, with the growing global problem of climate change and its impacts, more and more firms are encouraged to incorporate energy-efficient strategies in their designs such as the daylight sensor lighting control system. Not only does it help save energy, but it also helps you save big time.

New York Engineers will help conceive ideas and design for your daylight sensor lighting control project. We pride ourselves on providing only the highest quality mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and engineering services for our extensive base of clientele; both in and out of Chicago. It doesn’t matter if you need MEP designs for residential or commercial purposes – we provide services for both.

Let us provide you with the designs needed to make your dream projects a reality.

Daylight Sensor Lighting Control Design

Your daylight sensor control project will definitely be a huge success with our MEP design services. The whole project will be more productive and efficient with an accurate model at hand. We can do building performance analysis, cover all parametric components, do construction documentation, keep structural factors and architectural design in mind, and cover all aspects of your daylight sensor lighting control design.? ??

We at New York Engineers follow a meticulous protocol to meet the needs of every project we tackle – from meeting with the client and identifying the requirements needed to using only the best MEP software solutions to create the designs and models that will help you achieve results exactly as you imagined.

Step 1: For lighting control designs, we first need to meet with you, the client, so that we can listen to your needs and wants which will help us come up with the perfect designs and models for your ideal structure.

Step 2: Our team will then establish the several factors needed to design the lighting control system for your structure such as what type of control method to be used and which areas of the room will the sensors be placed. For existing structures, this involves an inspection of the area so that we will have a better picture of what system will be best for you and your area.

Step 3: Our engineers will then use the information collected to create the necessary design and 3D models using different MEP software solutions and modeling techniques for your daylight sensor lighting control. You can then have your structure’s daylight sensor lighting control design in a single database file.

Step 4: Finally, we provide the finished project model tailored to the client’s ideal results.

Our main priority when creating designs for projects is to ensure that they meet and exceed expectations while still adhering to the established engineering standards. We do this by delivering unique and high-quality daylight sensor lighting control designs and models using only the best MEP software solutions available. Furthermore, we will keep you well informed throughout the process by automatically updating you about everything that’s happening.

Our team of highly skilled engineering professionals will ensure that all our designs will reach their full potential while still minimizing the regular cost by bringing all our expertise about the subject matter to the table. They will factor in every aspect to make your daylight sensor lighting control project the way you envisioned it to be.

Products and reference designs of Daylight sensor

Non-isolated DC/DC power supply

The non-Isolated power supply subsystem provides the point-of-load system power for all system devices from a low voltage (typical 24V) DC line input (wired communications option) or a 10-year permanent battery or solar cell (wireless communications option). Non-isolated DC/DC power supply includes Buck converters (integrated switch)、Linear & low-dropout (LDO) regulators, the Corresponding products are LMR50410、TPS62A01、LMR38010、TLV742P

Energy storage

The energy storage subsystem is used for wireless communication options. Storage options include either a 10-year permanent coin cell battery or a solar cell with a rechargeable battery or super cap. In the rechargeable option, a battery charger with energy harvesting functionality will be required. Energy storage includes Battery charger ICs, the Corresponding product is BQ25505

Wired interface

Wired communications subsystem may be used in place of wireless in areas that may have higher levels of construction material or other RF interfaces. If the daylight harvesting system is powered by low voltage DC lines, then a form of power line communication can be used where system data is modulated over the DC power lines. In some systems, a CAT5 cable is used as a proprietary LAN connection to a master controller. In this case the daylight harvester may also be powered over the cable in a technique similar to power-over-Ethernet (PoE). Wired interface includes Powered devices、Ethernet PHYs, the Corresponding products are TPS2378、TPS2372、TPS23755、DP83822HF、DP83822IF

Digital processing

The digital processing subsystem consists of a microcontroller (MPU) that processes ambient light and temp data from sensors and packets the data for communication, and handles the wireless communications. Included in this subsystem may be logic gates and muxes that may be required for digital interface to other parts of the system. Digital processing includes MSP430 microcontrollers, the Corresponding product is MSP430F2131

Wireless interface

Wireless interface subsystem consists of a multi-standard radio with integrated, multi-core microcontroller that independently handles time-critical protocol processing. Common standards used are ZigBee, sub-1GHz or Wi-Fi. BLE is sometimes used in smaller rooms where dimming control units are nearby. This MCU may also be used to process the light and temp sensor data, replacing the need for a second. Wireless interface includes Low-power 2.4-GHz products、Sub-1 GHz wireless MCUs, the Corresponding products are CC2642R、CC2651R3、CC1312R

Sensing

The sensing subsystem includes ambient light sensor to provide daylight brightness data (open loop system) and/or room brightness data (closed loop system) to the MCU for communication to the dimming controller and LED driver. The data may also be used to control window blinds. The subsystem may also include temp sensor for further environmental control if the daylight is causing additional heating. Sensing includes Light sensors、Humidity sensors, the Corresponding products are OPT3001、HDC3022

Why It’s Important to Involve the Client in The Process

●Corrects and avoids any miscommunication

●Ensures that the client’s vision is precisely executed

●Allows the client to request any modification during the designing process

●Teaches the client what needs to be done afterwards such as maintenance, repair, and other tasks

At Nearby Engineers, we involve you, our client, in the process because by doing so, it helps us understand what you want and enables us to make the designs that are a perfect fit for your ideal structure. Furthermore, it allows for easy modifications in the design process rather than making costly changes during the actual construction stage.

By being involved in the process, it also teaches you about the daylight sensor lighting control we’re designing which will equip you also get to grasp what needs to be done after the project is finished such as the maintenance and repair processes of your system.
