What is Grading? <\/h3>\n\n

Dimming is a way of being able to modify the flow of a few light sources from a manual control device<\/strong> (example: a button) or with an automatic system (example: a presence detector). These two notions of dimming and controls are inseparable<\/strong> , and the components and modes of operation are intertwined<\/strong> .The fact of being able to reduce or increase the luminous flux of a source essentially depends on the technology of the latter. The means are varied and we offer you here an insight on the one hand on phase cutting and on the other hand on the technique of pulse width modulation (PWM).<\/p>\n\n

What is EnOcean?<\/h3>\n\n

Based on the principle of collecting natural physical energy (magneto-resistive, photovoltaic, Pelletier effect, etc.), EnOcean products collect the energy necessary for their operation from their environment<\/strong> : movement of a “rocker”, light solar panels, variation of heat in the valve of a radiator, everything is possible! Battery change and maintenance are a thing of the past.With EnOcean technology, benefit from the flexibility of wireless, without maintenance constraints. The EnOcean protocol is defined by the new ISO\/IEC 14543-3-10 standard, which makes it the first wireless energy harvesting protocol to have passed ISO international standards.<\/p>\n\n

Lamps and dimming<\/h2>\n\n

The flow of a light can be set up thanks to different techniques which depend on the technology of the source: <\/p>\n\n
