Daylight harvesting is a technique that involves using sensors and controls to adjust the amount of artificial light used in a building based on the amount of natural light available. This can be used in commercial applications to save energy and reduce lighting costs.
There are several types of sensors that can be used for daylight harvesting in commercial buildings. One type is a photosensor, which measures the amount of light in an area and sends a signal to the lighting control system to turn on or off the artificial lights as needed. Another type is a lux sensor, which measures the amount of light on a surface, such as a desk or floor, and can be used to control the lights in a specific area.
In addition to sensors, daylight harvesting systems also typically include controls, such as dimming controls or occupancy sensors, which can turn off the lights when an area is not in use. These controls can be programmed to take into account factors such as the time of day, the position of the sun, and the weather.
There are several benefits to using daylight harvesting in commercial buildings. In addition to energy savings, daylight harvesting can improve the quality of light in a space and increase occupant comfort by providing a more natural light source. It can also reduce the need for maintenance and replacement of lighting fixtures, as the artificial lights will not need to be used as frequently.
Overall, daylight harvesting is a simple and effective way to save energy and reduce lighting costs in commercial buildings. By using sensors and controls to adjust the amount of artificial light used based on the amount of natural light available, businesses can save energy and improve the quality of light in their spaces.
