Peter Heyse, Director at STL International, will be presenting at Hazardex in the Regions: Grangemouth on 18 June. He will be discussing the use of smart lighting controls in hazardous areas.

Intelligent lighting and smart controls are more associated with large building projects in cities while lighting applications in hazardous areas are more of a simple on/off scenario. With the rising energy and maintenance costs, integrating intelligent light management in a hazardous area application, can prevent expensive downtime, reduce energy costs and extend luminaire life due to reduced run time. We explore some of the wired and wireless options already available for hazardous area applications.

STL International Ltd is a lighting solution provider specialising in emergency lighting and luminaires for specialist applications such as extreme temperatures, vandal resistant and explosive dust atmospheres. The ongoing mission for STL is to eliminate, or at least drastically reduce, lighting maintenance so that skilled and valuable personnel time can be spent more productively elsewhere on the plant or site.
