Open Office Lighting Controls
Estimated Total Savings: 20-40%
Autani controls provide many benefits for open office layouts. The space can be dynamically rezoned into different regions when cubicle layouts are changed. Autani Thermostats can be scheduled for optimal comfort while supporting administrator-defined limited overrides to allow for temperature overrides in certain spaces. Wireless controls can be configured to support different optimal light levels through day and night, and light harvesting options allow lighting usage to be dialed back when exterior daylight enters the space.

Control Strategies
Occupancy / Vacancy Sensing
Turn lights on when occupants are in a space and off when they vacate it. Alternate Functionality: Partial-on and manual-on modes are supported for additional savings and more stringent local codes.
High-End Trim / Institutional Tuning
Set the maximum light level based on customer requirements in each space to prevent overlighting.
Local Dimming Control
Permit occupants to lower the light below the high-end trim for comfort and additional savings.
Daylight Harvesting
Use dim lighting when daylight is available. Multiple zones are supported where required by code.
HVAC Control
Manage smart thermostats and sensors to implement temperature setback of HVAC equipment based upon occupancy or timeclock.
Plug Load Control
Manage control of select plug loads for Energy Code Compliance and the elimination of phantom loads when the building is not occupied.
Automatic Scheduling & Timeclock*
Automatically dim or shut off lighting based on centrally managed schedules.
* Requires Autani Manager or CR02-W.A0.
Demand Response*
Manage lighting and HVAC electrical loads to limit ratchet charges and peak demand pricing periods.
* Requires Autani Manager.
Business Outcomes
- Improve environmental comfort where healthy, happy people contribute more while constructing a higher performing company.
