The project, which has been ongoing since 2008, has seen a number of outdated 1960\u2019s buildings replaced with a series of high specification facilities to meet the modern needs of an educational space, in an energy efficient and cost-effective way.<\/p>\n<p>Commercial fit-out specialists Fuselek Limited chose to work with CP Electronics to deliver a lighting control solution that is tailored to the needs of the different rooms and to benefit its users. Having worked together to supply lighting controls for Blocks 1, 4, 5 plus the College Bistro, which had to be provided with specific lighting for different zones, Fuselek Limited understood that CP Electronics would be able to deliver a versatile solution through a combination of standalone PIRs, Vitesse Plus LCM, Vitesse Plus HW and the innovative RAPID fully addressable and networkable lighting control systems. A combination of these products allows the college to monitor luminaires, run diagnostics and test their emergency lighting with the use of a front-end software supplied also by CP Electronics.<\/p>\n<p>RAPID scene setting was also used in the main building area, lecturing suite and Bistro\/dining area so that appropriate lighting scenes could be created depending on how the space was being utilised. The Bistro is also used as a training restaurant that takes advantage of the students\u2019 culinary skills so allowing the lighting to be dimmed or increased through an easyto-use scene setting control panel was imperative. The use of RAPID meets all the requirements of the College for a flexible and adaptable networked system in its multi-floor building block.<\/p>\n<p>CP Electronics Vitesse Plus LCMs were chosen for the other buildings where rod suspensions were used to mount luminaires. The Vitesse Plus 7 LCM was perfect for these installations as it is designed for fast wiring and provides 4 M6 keyways to fix to channel nut fixings for rod suspensions. It also offers multi-channel switching, daylight linking, graduated dimming functionality and DALI dimming. Vitesse Plus 7 offers simple commissioning and total flexibility, with an innovative design that also helps the education sector meet emerging legislation and guidelines for classroom lighting control.<\/p>\n<p>Other areas have standalone presence detectors. These areas needed a simple presence and absence detector for energy saving.<\/p>\n<p>CP Electronics was able to provide controls that enhance the new facility, creating a flexible and adaptable 21st century learning environment, whilst delivering the required low maintenance, energy efficient solution.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information, contact 0333 9000671 or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpelectronics.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.cpelectronics.co.uk<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CP Electronics has supplied a variety of lighting controls for the continued refurbishment of Halesowen College, Whittingham Road Campus.
