Novah lights up Lime Street Station N


ovah – the Cheshire-based LED lighting specialist – has supplied the LED lighting for the newly refurbished concourse and underpass at Liverpool Lime Street train station. Major renovations across the lower level station have recently been completed and in a bid to reduce energy costs and consumption, Novah’s LED tube and panel lights were installed throughout the project. Craig Lewis, managing director of Novah, commented: “We’re delighted that Merseyrail selected our LED lamps to complete their upgrade programme at Liverpool Lime Street. We’re at the forefront of LED technology and are extremely confident they will reap huge benefits by introducing LED lighting throughout the new phase of the station. By using Novah’s lamps, not only will they be saving on their energy consumption, the efficiency and durability should also exceed their expectations.” Novah, which has recently moved to larger premises in Runcorn, is constantly working on developing advances and


improvements in LED lighting technology. Over the last five years, as well as working on large communication projects for transport and media, Novah has developed ranges of LED lighting solutions sold through various wholesale channels. Mike Jones, Project Engineer at Merseyrail said: “We’re delighted with the concourse


refurbishment around Liverpool Lime Street Station. The quality of the lighting has been significantly improved – offering pedestrians and commuters a safer and more enjoyable experience whilst travelling to and from the railway station. Additionally, by installing Novah’s LED lamps lighting costs will be reduced, in addition to energy consumption. The new revamp of the underpass is now in keeping with work recently undertaken at other locations


across the city, ensuring Liverpool is a world-class travel destination for residents and tourists alike.” Novah’s LED T8 tubes are available in a variety of options to suit all requirements from emergency and microwave tubes to freezer tubes that function successfully in temperatures as low as -40°. Resembling a skylight, Novah’s LED ceiling panels are an ideal light source to be inserted into the place of a standard ceiling tile. www.novah.co.uk


Light Work with LightSpot HD E


x-Or’s new range of PIR sensors, LightSpot HD has launched, using innovative new features to make light work for energy efficiency, comfort, productivity and ease of use all backed by Ex-Or quality and a five year warranty.


“Energy costs are rising rapidly and the inclusion of lighting controls in any building translates into significant savings on energy bills. Our high performance lighting controls deliver reductions of up to 70 per cent in energy use”, said Jason Ng, marketing communications specialist at Ex-Or. “We understand the changing requirements for lighting controls across a broad range of applications and this knowledge enables us to deliver optimum energy savings without compromising quality, comfort and performance.” LightSpot HD sensors provide class leading sensitivity with macro and micro detection, ensuring that lights deliver optimal luminance when required and switch off when they are not being used, making light work of comfort and productivity. Users can also set the light level by Lux value, optimising natural daylight without compromising comfort.

The LightSpot HD sensors, enhanced with both spring clip and locking ring fixing options, are fitted with pluggable, colour coded connectors, making the


installation process easy and eliminating errors. The sensors


provide flexibility and ease of use through the inclusion of QuickLink, a unique intelligent solution that lets installers create a simple small network of up to four sensors. Additionally, the sensor includes tilting lenses and precision lens masks which allow the sensing zone to be created exactly where it is required and adapted accordingly. LightSpot HD is making light work in: • Offices: LightSpot HD sensors provide comfort and safety for a productive working environment and drive significant energy efficiencies. All sensors feature built in photocells which regulate to user defined lux levels to ensure a constant light level is maintained


throughout the workday.


• Education: Multiple sensing technologies connected by QuickLink offer a simple and cost effective lighting control solution for the classroom. Users can set the light level of the room by Lux value, optimising daylight harvesting without compromising comfort.


• Warehouses: Lighting large warehouses often result in high energy costs. Ex-Or’s LightSpot HD range includes sensors that are optimised for peak performance in these spaces. Using high definition optics, precise lens masking, and user defined daylight linking, they save energy by ensuring lights are never left burning needlessly in vacant areas or where there’s already enough natural light, with mounting heights from 2.5m to 16m in flush or surface mounts


• Healthcare: Hospital power supplies are either essential (uninterruptible) and non-essential (may fail in a power outage).Using QuickLink, hospitals can create a system that controls both essential and non-essential lighting and still enjoy the energy savings benefits of LightSpot HD. www.ex-or.com
