NSW power stations switch to LED
A number of power stations in NSW have committed to trialling LED Hi-Bay light fixtures for use in different areas.
The fixtures are known as the Safe Site Series by US company Dialight, supplied locally in Australia and New Zealand by Maser Communications.
The Safe Site Series is designed to replace existing 75–250 watt Mercury Vapor Hi-Bay Area lights using Hi Flux LEDs. LED users can reduce their energy consumption by up to 90% from traditional incandescent fittings.
The NSW power industry has been looking at ways to reduce not only its energy consumption, but also its maintenance costs. With an average life of around 100,000 steady burn hours, the Safe Site Series can afford huge savings in maintenance areas.
LEDs allow instant on/off and are suitable for connecting to standard PIR motion sensors for gantries, walk ways, coal feeders, workshops, generator halls and battery rooms.
