Lighting is estimated to be 35% of the total electrical usage within
convenience store facilities. In order to increase the bottom line,
it is imperative that lighting be properly controlled to operate
ONLY when needed.
The TMS system incorporates an analog light level sensor for
control of individual lighting groups, allowing customized control
of canopy, site, pole and sign lighting. Using separate setpoints
for each circuit, staged control can be implemented which
reduces electrical usage and insures operation when required.
Control becomes automatic, 365 days a year, without human
intervention.
