etwork Rail has installed an advanced SPECS3 Lighting Controls System from Simmtronic to gain the maximum energy saving and lighting management flexibility at its recently opened national centre in Milton Keynes. Known as “The Quadrant: MK”, the 400,000 sq ft building brings over 3,000 people from across the country under one glazed roof, creating a new centre for Britain’s railway operations.
This
progressive design ethos, projected by Network Rail Management and architects GMW, has been conducive in achieving an excellent BREEAM rating for energy
efficiency, to which the Simmtronic team are proud to have contributed. The scheme uses DALI dimming technology to regulate the highest availability of daylight throughout the building. Careful thought was given to using the most innovative installation procedures, moving away from traditional LCM, using open ceiling design, reducing the cost of a false ceiling and getting the best value for the taxpayer.
