Wireless Control System for Street and Area Lighting


Dimming street lights during off-peak times can save up to 30% in energy. Utilities need a reliable method of metering a citys street lights in order to credit the city for their energy savings. Owlets on-board Metering Chipset monitors and reports power usage within a 2% accuracy which is acceptable to most utilities, so why invest in controls if your utility does not accept the metering! Owlet is Schrders telemanagement system for monitoring, controlling, metering and managing outdoor lighting. Based on open technologies it saves energy, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, improves outdoor lighting reliability and lowers maintenance costs. Owlet is ideal for street and roadway lighting, college and corporate campuses, city centers, parking lots, boardwalks and other area lighting applications. Our controls work with any lighting manufacturers luminaires and we partner with all LED luminaire manufacturers on projects. Each individual luminaire can be switched on or off and dimmed at any time. The luminaires operating state, energy consumption and component malfunctions are reported and stored in a database, noting the time and geographical location. Owlet incorporates open architecture technology, with modern web based applications for a system that can be upgraded and interfaced with other systems as technologies evolve in the future.

Energy Saving Strategies


Reduce your energy consumption for lighting by an average of 40%
TIME BASED SAVINGS
Save an average of 40 percent of energy costs by adjusting the lighting levels to the time and local conditions. For example, lower levels late at night and higher levels when pedestrians are present.

VIRTUAL POWER OUTPUT


Determine the exact wattage required for the lumen output required instead of having to choose a higher wattage lamp for minimum light level requirements.

40%

25 %

8% to 10%

CONSTANT LIGHT OUTPUT


Save up to 10 percent of energy costs by reducing the power and lumen output for

new lamps that deliver more light compared to older lamps nearing the end of their life cycle.

Maintenance Cost Saving


Monitoring, controlling, metering and managing
All controlled luminaires are monitored so alerts can be sent for outages or other equipment problems. Adjustments can be made remotely to on/off schedules or light levels. All field information is stored in a database for energy analysis, lamp life forecasting and other evaluation.

Luminaire Controller
The luminaire controller is a small, compact design that can be installed in the light fixture housing. Current, voltage and power factor are continuously monitored and logged. A built-in backup astronomical clock provides switching after sunset and before sunrise, even when disconnected from the rest of the system.

Pole Mounted Luminaire Controller


This controller contains two independent controllers with one dimming output for both luminaires (loads), each individually energy metered and ideal if more than one load is attached to a pole, such as double brackets, festive lighting, advertising signs, etc. The energy consumption of each output is individually metered through Class 1 meters on board. Current, voltage and power factor are also continuously monitored.

Segment Controller
A segment controller manages up to 150 luminaire controllers. It collects the data through a ZigBee self healing mesh network and then transmits the data over the internet to the Owlet web server. Data is securely exchanged through a VPN connection. The controller can also acquire data from the meter for monitoring energy usage billing purposes.
