“Smart” Guide to Better Managing Warehouse Lighting
The warehouse is a huge space with high ceilings, a high shelving structure and narrow aisles where workers carry and store. High quality low glare allows employees to have optimal visual conditions for safe operation of equipment. Many warehouses have already completed the first and most important step — replacing metal halide and fluorescent lamps with LED replacements. Because LED lights will use less energy and last longer.
But as time went on, more progressive warehouse managers wanted to have a completely “green warehouse” — simple, energy efficient and efficient. Morstar’s Morlink smart lighting control system can achieve this. The Morlink system is ideally suited for use in a warehouse environment, minimizing energy consumption while maintaining a high level of user comfort using the most well-matched combination of sensors and luminaires.
Morstar created a smart lighting system for Daniel’s 32,000-square-foot warehouse in Detroit. The Intelligent UFO High Bay Light was replaced by this large facility. On average, lighting efficiency across the warehouse increased by 80 percent, and the payback was impressive.
In fact, the system saves Daniel about $30,000 a year. These savings are the result of Morstar working with warehouse managers to optimize to get the best possible results.
 | Many warehouses operate for long periods of time, maybe 16 hours, maybe 24 hours. So well designed, energy efficient lighting plays an important role in ensuring operations take place safely and efficiently – providing good quality, uniform illumination throughout the workspace. Morstar created a smart, efficient lighting system designed to improve lighting levels and achieve the greatest possible reduction in energy costs and achieve significant savings in CO2 emissions.The latter was critical for receiving additional subsidies from the state. The energy efficiency is typically the top driver for using smart warehouse technology,business owners can take advantage of lighting smart control to capitalize on maintenance, service and efficiency opportunities. It’s through control system that business owners and managers can create a healthier, more comfortable environment for tenants, while also delivering energy and cost savings in line with sustainability goals. |
| In warehouses applications most of the racks are never fully used and a good quality of light is needed when you want to pick your merchandise. That’s why it’s especially important to turn off lights you don’t need. Gangways can benefit from presence detection technology, allowing just one single aisle or picking area to be lit if that’s all that is required – LED’s ‘instant on’ functionality ensuring safety. Open areas can also benefit from intelligent control systems, meaning spaces are only illuminated as and when needed. After a period of inactivity the sensor turns the light fixture off or dims them to a pre-set level, this achieves additional energy savings – The right light in the right place! |  |
