  • Utrecht, Netherlands, 2020
  • Customer: BAM Bouw en Techniek
  • Project: : Conversion to Connected lighting system, existing of OSRAM SubstiTUBE T8 Connected LED tubes and LEDVANCE Connected Sensors in the Hoog Catharijne car park in Utrecht
  • Application: Car park lighting
  • Technology: OSRAM SubstiTUBE T8 Connected G2 in combination with LEDVANCE Damp Proof Housing and LEDVANCE Connected Sensors
  • Products: OSRAM SubstiTUBE Connected G2 1500mm 840, LEDVANCE Damp Proof Housing 1500 1x, LEDVANCE Damp Proof Housing 1500 2x, LEDVANCE SubstiTUBE Connected Sensor ST8 HighBay, LEDVANCE SubstiTUBE Connected Sensor ST Low Bay, LEDVANCE SubstiTUBE Connected Sensor Remote

The OSRAM SubstiTUBE T8 Connected G2 in combination with LEDVANCE’s new generation of Connected Sensors enables professional wireless light management for parking garages, for example, without the need for programming or rewiring.

THE CHALLENGE

Installing conventional systems with motion sensors in car parks is often a complicated and costly task. This is because cables for rewiring or DALI cabling have to be laid and there are usually no cable ducts. Also, a separate control unit is often required for the sensors.

THE SOLUTION

The Connected lighting system. The result: more light, more safety and more efficiency. OSRAM SubstiTUBE T8 Connected LED tubes installed in LEDVANCE Damp Proof Housing are controlled wirelessly and can be connected via LEDVANCE Connected Sensors based on the ZigBee 3.0 Open Standard Protocol. The advantage is that it is only necessary to replace existing tubes and starters with new LED tubes and starters, and to install and power the sensors.

 Project Hoog Catharijne Utrecht
Parking garage Hoog Catharijne is the perfect base for a day trip to Utrecht. In order to meet the most modern requirements, just like the shopping centre of the same name located on top of the parking garage, LEDVANCE provided this car park with an entirely new Connected lighting system at the request of BAM Bouw en Techniek, and in collaboration with Lichtservice Nederland. The result: more light, more safety and more efficiency.

THE BENEFITS

Thanks to zonal dimming, presence detection and daylight setting, the intelligent system of OSRAM SubstiTUBE Connected tubes achieves significant energy savings compared to the conventional fluorescent lamps installed previously. With sensors at various inputs, the Connected LED tubes can be automatically switched on to full brightness as soon as someone enters the parking garage and until then need only illuminate at 20% of their full brightness.

The choice was made on the Connected system from LEDVANCE, existing of OSRAM Connected LED tubes and LEDVANCE Connected Sensors. The reason for this is the ease of installation, energy efficiency and low costs at maintenance intervals of up to 6 years because the LED tubes can be easily replaced.

SUMMARY

In particular, the simplicity of the installation and the efficiency that the system delivers made it an attractive lighting solution for installation company BAM.
Thanks to the cool white light colour of 4000K, everything is much more visible in the parking garage. Partly due to the application of the LEDVANCE Connected system the light is not unnecessarily running at 100% brightness all the time. After all, the parking garage is open 24 hours a day.
