HOW WE CAN HELP YOU
🌞 Integrated Lux Detection, Smarter Daylight Control
Accurate ambient light sensing without exposed photocells — enabling clean fixture design, automatic dusk-to-dawn control, and efficient daylight harvesting.
🔧 The Challenge with Traditional Daylight Sensors
In typical lighting designs, external photocells are used to detect ambient light. These sensors often require drilling holes through the luminaire housing or mounting on exposed surfaces. This increases manufacturing complexity, compromises fixture appearance, and creates potential points of failure.
In outdoor or architectural projects where sleek aesthetics matter, such solutions can be limiting.
💡 Hytronik’s Solution: Photocell Advance™
Photocell Advance™ is engineered to detect true natural light levels from within the luminaire. It requires no external opening, drilling, or surface-mounting — making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor fixtures.
It uses precise calibration and shielding techniques to filter out light emitted by the fixture itself, ensuring accurate ambient lux measurement.
🔍 Accurate Lux MeasurementSensors operate fully enclosed, eliminating the need for any external exposure. This simplifies production and preserves clean fixture design. |
🌅 Dusk & Dawn Auto ControlLighting automatically turns on at dusk and off at dawn, regardless of motion. Perfect for car parks, pathways, public areas, and façade lighting. |
🚦 Daylight Priority SwitchingWhen sufficient natural light is detected, the system keeps lights off — even if motion is present. This reduces energy consumption in bright environments. |
🌞 Proactive Daylight HarvestingContinuously adjusts artificial lighting based on real-time daylight levels, maximizing energy savings while maintaining consistent visual comfort. |
📈 Why It Matters to OEMs and Project Designers
