Save energy in your lighting projects with DIALux evo 11
Have you ever wanted to know how much you can save by controlling your lighting system considering the influence of daylight?
With our latest version, DIALux evo 11, you can easily find out. For each of your designs, it will be shown how much energy could potentially be saved.
The tachometer is meant to help you decide if it's worth taking a closer look at the question. For this purpose we have built a new tool for you. You place a sensor in your DIALux project in the room, set how the room should be used and determine which luminaires should be excluded from the control – and you're ready to go!
For every hour and every day of the year, the daylight coming in through the windows is determined and the amount of artificial light that needs to be added to achieve the required illuminance is calculated. The result then shows you how much energy, CO2 and money you will save per year if you schedule a regulation.
Sounds complicated and time-consuming? But it isn't! The highlight of our development is that you can calculate it all in a few seconds. Interactive graphics make the result plausible and comprehensible. You can see for each day of the year, which daylight will be available and how much artificial light has to be controlled.
You can rely on the results: The algorithms are the result of a multi-year research project with the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics.
