Mondoluce LED Dimming with Lumitech Tauren Ballast

Mondoluce LED Dimming with Lumitech Tauren Ballast

Theatres throughout Australia utilise “old technology” halogen lighting. Halogen lighting systems were easy to dim and also provide a warm colour tone with excellent colour rendition properties.
LED doesn’t work same as halogen when dimming on a standard phase cut dimming system. A complete re-wire of the Theatre with a lighting control system is normally required to upgrade to LED. This is very costly with both components and labour costs for installation.

Introducing the Enerpro X range of LED down lights paired with the LUMITECH – Tauren electronic dimming ballast. Enerpro X LED downlights achieves the warm colour temperature and the superior rendition properties match that of halogen lighting. Paired with the LUMITECH Tauren electronic ballast, Enepro X LED converts the existing dimming signal into an advanced signal that can be interpreted by the Enerpro X downlight.

Hale School Theatre LED upgrade – Summary of savings:

Number of fittings = 50
Existing light fittings = 250w halogen
Cost of electricity = 0.22c per kWh
Hours run per day = 12 hours
New LED fittings = 26w LED

Based on the assumed operating conditions, power consumption is reduced by over 70%. This resulted in a payback period of just over 1 year for the upgrade.

As simple as unplugging the old technology halogen downlight and plugging in the new Enerpro X + Tauren Ballast. The life expectancy of the Enerpro X LED down light is approximately 20 years.
