Ex-Or Connect UltraLite offers plug-in simplicity

12 Jan 2012

Ex-Or’s acclaimed Connect quick connection range has been further extended with the introduction of the UltraLite CD (Connect Digital) Box.

Ex-Or Connect comprises a range of purpose-designed connection centres which provide plug-in simplicity. The UltraLite CD box has been introduced at the value end of the Connect range.

It is a modular wiring system that provides easy connection and isolation to luminaires. It can also be used to connect presence detectors and conventional switches to create an easily installed, semi-intelligent lighting control solution. A range of LightSpot detectors complete with 7-way connectors for immediate use is available.

The unit can be fitted without the need for specialist installation skills. The potential for wiring faults is reduced because it uses industry standard Wieland plugs which provide easy connection to the luminaires and detectors. Commissioning of the UltraLite CD box is straightforward and needs no programming.

Up to ten luminaires and two detectors can be connected to each UltraLite CD Box (one detector can control up to 10 luminaires; two detectors up to 5 luminaires each). The UltraLite’s 7-way connectors allow the option of including manual switching.

The new ‘plug and play’ LightSpot detectors come complete with 7-way connectors, ready for use with the new UltraLite Box. All offer OneSwitch functionality in conjunction with a manual wall switch. The OneSwitch feature can be used, for example, for ‘absence’ mode operation whereby luminaires are activated manually on entering an area but will be automatically switched off once the area has been vacated.

Such features make UltraLite a welcome addition to the Connect range which, at the other end of the scale, includes MLS Connect Digital with its programmable connection centres and designed to be used as part of an Ex-Or MLS Digital Managed Lighting System. Now the options have been increased for the installer who wants a less sophisticated solution which nevertheless offers more than just a means of connecting luminaires.
