Providing OEMs, wholesalers, installers and FM managers with a product that combines advanced battery technology with the latest in emergency lighting components, Tridonic has announced the availability of a brand new, ‘out of the box‘ emergency lighting solution. This is the company‘s first ever stand-alone emergency luminaire and it comes at a time when there is a heightened awareness of the importance of practical emergency l...

  Software for easy driver configuration, called deviceCONFIGURATOR, which allows customers to edit driver settings while reducing programming errors, has been released by Tridonic.  

A subsidiary of Tridonic, Dornbirn and thus part of the Zumtobel Group lighting group, Tridonic Jennersdorf, has filed a lawsuit against the company S-KON eKontor24 based in Germany. The subject of the legal action brought before Munich District Court is the sale of smartphones manufactured by HTC of Taiwan.

A partnership has been set-up between Tridonic, EON Reality to develop an Augmented Reality control and provisioning interface for Tridonic’s IoT enabled industrial lighting solution, net4more. The AR application was demoed at CeBIT as part of Tridonic’s keynote address, ‘Lighting as the backbone for the Internet of Things’.

Tridonic has given its sixth generation SLE LED modules a chip upgrade and at the same time expanded its colour palette. The ART, FOOD and FASHION colours, each optimised to a specific application, have now been joined by the TINGE light colour which makes warm tones appear even more vibrant. All versions benefit from greater efficiency in high-output mode and are now available with a 17 mm light emission surface.

Warehouses, factories and multi-storey car parks all need robust luminaires that provide high lumen values. Industrial lighting has to be energy-efficient and durable. Tridonic offers the right LED light sources for diffused lighting in the form of its CLE G1 ADV IND and QLE G1 ADV IND modules. A luminous flux of 26,000 lumen per module and three different colour temperatures of 4,000, 5,000 and 6,500 K make it easier to develop and manufacture L...

Tridonic, a global provider of smart and efficient lighting solutions, is opening an office in Highland, New York to serve the North American market with smart solutions also for IoT applications.

Tridonic has announced the availability of three CPD modules. This brings the total number of modules available to nine, all of which have been certified by CIBSE. The company is currently offering the chance for architects and specifiers to book their staff on to one or more these modules free of charge. The three new modules are:

Lighting specialist Tridonic celebrated its 50th birthday earlier this year at the company’s National Partner Conference, and a key part of the celebrations was to highlight what Tridonic believe will be the most exciting advancement in connected lighting seen in the industry. 

The EM powerLED 45 W LED Drivers in PRO DIM and SELV versions combine normal and emergency lighting modes for LED luminaires in one unit. The compact housings of the installation version save space in the luminaire and the modest space requirements of these combination devices will provide greater freedom for luminaire designers.

Tridonic's next generation of  LED modules CLE Quadrant G2 ADVANCED now offer even greater flexibility for luminaire manufacturers for round ceiling and pendant luminaries. High efficiency and a high luminous flux are now not just available optionally but can be combined in a single module.

The Internet of Things is the next industrial revolution, and Tridonic is convinced that lighting will play a decisive role. With this in mind the company has developed the toolbox, net4more, which will not only connect luminaires with each other, but deliver a value add that goes far beyond lighting.

The recently released RLE EXC OTD 2x4/ 2x8 HP LED modules from Tridonic are resistant to overvoltage and are geared towards demanding outdoor and industrial applications. They can be combined with standard lenses and support modular luminaire design. Thanks to a variety of beam characteristics many different lighting scenarios can be created.

LED street lights and outdoor lights can be professionally dimmed with voltage-resistant TALEXXdrivers in the Premium OTD series from Tridonic. These drivers for luminaire installation offer impressive surge/burst resistance of 10kV and are extremely durable with a life of 100,000 hours.

Tridonic has announced the launch of its CPD programme. The scheme, which currently consists of six separate modules has been certified by CIBSE and is designed to help both CIBSE members and other specifiers and architects keep up to date with the latest developments in lighting technology, its use and associated legislation.

In order to supplement its recently introduced connecDIM lighting control solution, Tridonic has also announced the availability of a new Lighting Dashboard. The Dashboard is capable of integrating with the connecDIM system and can also open up the opportunity for the Tridonic system to integrate with HVAC Building Management Systems.

Tridonic has announced that it has invested in a permanent display that will be housed at The Building Centre, London. The facility will showcase the company's latest developments in the management of light with a particular focus on its cloud-based lighting control systems, connecDIM and how it manages lighting energy, lighting faults and emergency lighting.

  Technology which enables data to be transmitted in digital form via the existing mains now allows dimming. ready2mains technology, developed by Tridonic, allows dimming commands to be transmitted and executed without the need for expensive rewiring.

It is now widely accepted that regardless of the building's purpose, changing from a fluorescent to LED based lighting solution is the way forward for both new build and refurbishment schemes. The speed at which this acceptance has happened has taken both observers of, and suppliers and manufacturers in, the industry by surprise.

Durham Cathedral in LEGO, part of the Cathedral’s fundraising appeal for its £10 million Open Treasure project, was illuminated for the first time to celebrate the model’s second birthday. A joint initiative between Tridonic and Thorn Lighting meant that LED light strips and the associated control equipment had been installed throughout the completed section of the model and these were switched on by the Bishop of Durham ea...
