Lux Calculation
Our Lux Calculation service ensures optimal lighting levels for any space by precisely measuring the intensity of light (lux) needed to meet specific requirements. Using advanced tools, we analyze and design lighting layouts that deliver ideal brightness, enhance visibility, and comply with industry standards. Whether it’s for offices, retail spaces, or industrial facilities, our Lux Calculations help create safe, comfortable, and energy-efficient environments tailored to your needs.
Dimming provides a flexible and intelligent lighting control. Dimming also contributes to energy saving and creating different ambient atmospheres. Nowadays, LED lighting makes up a huge part of the lighting market, and it is expected to achieve higher capability for dimming. Although there are various dimming methods used with LEDs, 0-10V dimming is one of the most widely used lighting control methods in commercial and industrial applications. AGC is a professional outdoor and industrial lights manufacturer that provides lighting fixtures with 0-10V dimming options.
Not sure whether 0-10V dimming is suitable for your application? This post will show you the answer.
What is 0-10V Dimming?
0-10V dimming is a method of controlling the brightness of LED lights by varying the voltage between 0 and 10 volts. It is one of the most common and widely used dimming protocols for LED lighting, as it is simple, reliable, and compatible with many LED drivers and fixtures.
0-10V dimming allows users to adjust the light levels according to their needs and preferences, creating different moods and atmospheres in various settings. It also helps to save energy and extend the lifespan of LED lights, as dimming reduces the power consumption and heat generation of the LEDs.
How a 0-10V Dimming System Works
A 0-10V dimming system consists of four main components: a dimmer, a power supply, an LED driver, and an LED fixture.
- The dimmer sends a low-voltage signal (between 0 and 10 volts) to the LED driver.
- The power supply converts high-voltage AC current to low-voltage DC current.
- The LED driver regulates the current and voltage for the LED fixture.
- The LED fixture emits light according to the dimming level.
The wiring of a 0-10V dimming system is simple: the power supply is connected to the mains, the dimmer is connected to the power supply, the LED driver is connected to the dimmer and the power supply, and the LED fixture is connected to the LED driver.
DALI
DALI, or Digital Addressable Lighting Interface, is a powerful lighting control protocol designed to offer precise and flexible management of lighting systems. With DALI, each light fixture can be individually addressed and controlled, enabling tailored settings for brightness, color, and grouping to create custom lighting scenes.
Features
- Supports both "Control Device" (master) and "Control Gear" (slave).
- Proven DALI Control Gear library (IEC62836-102).
- Contributes to CPU workload reduction and total board cost reduction.
- Stack tested on official DALI tester.
- Input device (RL78/G23) supports noise-resistant touch function.
- Three ways to control dimmer: web (AWS), PC (GUI), and switch.
