124 TECHNOLOGY / LIGHTING CONTROL CASE STUDY
HEART OF GLASS Delmatic is supplying lighting management for the latest iconic addition to the London skyline.
Delmatic is supplying a DALI lighting management system for the newest addition to the London skyline: London Bridge Tower, popularly known as the ‘Shard of Glass’. Part of the £2 billion London Bridge Quarter development, The Shard has been designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano and at 310m high, the 93,000sqm, 83 storey building will be the tallest structure in Europe.
The Delmatic system is set to minimise lighting energy consumption as well as providing automatic emergency lighting testing and monitoring to facilitate maintenance and reduce operational costs. The lower half of the building comprises public areas with thirty floors of office space, while the upper floors house a mid-level viewing piazza, restaurants, five star hotel, apartments and public viewing
gallery with panoramic views across London. The Delmatic system provides fully addressable management and monitoring of lighting and comprises a range of DALI modules which match the use of the area and the installation approach. The modules minimise, and in some cases avoid altogether, the need to address the DALI ballasts on site.
DALI plug-in modules provide totally flexible addressable control of each luminaire while DALI buswire modules in stairwells energise lights in sequence as people move up and down the staircases. Channels of DALI lighting are controlled in core areas speeding installation and simplifying maintenance.
The system optimises energy efficiency through the use of multisensors which are configured for presence or absence
detection as well as providing daylight- linking. DALI dimming achieves energy savings through the ability to reduce lighting levels during out-of-hours periods and to suit the use of the area. The Delmatic system provides automated testing of the entire emergency lighting network in accordance with BS EN 50172. It combines a variety of emergency test and monitoring devices to suit the light source: DALI emergency monitoring devices, Delmatic battery monitoring devices and photocell monitoring devices are integrated into the site wide system and transmit performance information across the network to the head-end PC for the generation of pass/fail reports.
