Installations included linear Academy, recessed LuxPanel Extra and Platinum Mini downlighters, along with Luceco\u2019s wireless lighting control system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Academy is a surface linear range of luminaires, designed with educational establishments in mind, available in 1200, 1500 and 1800 mm lengths with a choice of high or low outputs with an efficacy up to 129 Llm\/cW. With microprism polycarbonate opal diffuser, Academy is a robust fitting with clean aesthetics. Polycarbonate secured endcaps ensure a quality lighting solution, enhanced by the uniform light distribution. Academy can be suspension or surface mounted with a BESA fixing and central cable entry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Andy Whalley, project manager, said: \u201cWe worked on the lighting specification with the University looking at teaching spaces, corridors, and circulation areas. The benefits of the wireless lighting controls included zoning and scene-setting, daylight dimming and presence detection as well as extending the working life of the luminaires due to reduced operating hours. This significantly reduced running costs and greatly improved energy efficiency as well as enhancing the lit environment for both students and teaching staff.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lighting design and specification was done by Brent Sansom at Lighting Design Services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The University is named in honour of Sir John Moores, who founded the Littlewoods retail chain and the football pools! In 1987 the Polytechnic recognised Sir John\u2019s outstanding contribution to the area by making him its first Honorary Fellow. This year sees the celebration of 200 years of education at the Liverpool John Moores, whose history goes back to the late industrial revolution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, the modern civic university demonstrates that they haven\u2019t lost the pioneering zeal of their founding fathers, but are now enjoying a well-lit environment that is hugely beneficial to learning in educational establishments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"mailto:uk_sales@luceco.com\">uk_sales@luceco.com<\/a> \/ 01952 238 100 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.luceco.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.luceco.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The John Foster Building at Liverpool John Moores University has recently undergone a lighting refurbishment, with Luceco supplying the luminaires for the project.\u00a0 A former nunnery, the John Foster Building now provides a beautiful setting for teaching, with humanities and social science departments, IT suites, and dedicated postgraduate study areas.\u00a0 A range of luminaires installed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":19620,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2469],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-advertorial","et-has-post-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/luceco-john-moores-uni.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19619"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19619\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19621,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19619\/revisions\/19621"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19620"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
