Harvard Driver with ZigBee interface
The 33W driver, called CLZ and part of the firm’s CoolLED range, offers dimming down to 1% and includes a 2.4GHz radio – either built-in or remote (pictured).
Radio communication allows the driver to tap into Harvard’s ‘EyeNut’ monitoring and management system for indoor lighting.
EyeNut drivers enable easy commissioning during the installation stage and reduce the number of components needed within the luminaire. The driver also works in conjunction with light engines from our LEDeng range to provide an all-in-one controllable LED solution, said Harvard.
“EyeNut provides individual luminaire control through a web interface as well as allowing energy consumption management and enabling a variety of control strategies to be employed.”
The 33W EyeNut driver with ZigBee dongle combines the company’s market leading CoolLED driver technology with the benefits of the award-winning
CLZ, based on existing CL drivers from Harvard, is SELV compliant.
Retail, office and hospitality use is expected.
EyeNut is intended for new and retrofit installations – using an adaptor with existing luminaires. Harvard is developing further EyeNut-enabled drivers.
