Low voltage systems refer to equipment that uses up to 50 volts (V) of power, most often 48 V, 24 V, and 12 V, and require a separate wire network from regular electrical wiring.
Modern commercial and industrial buildings have sophisticated, structured cabling systems and networks developed to integrate and control all vital activities to satisfy the needs of today's high-tech and innovative businesses.
Surveillance, intercom, sound systems, HVAC, and other low-voltage applications are just a few of the applications with low voltage systems.
Other low voltage applications in commercial settings include data cabling, fiber optics, access control, surveillance, nurse call, intercom, sound masking, sound system, and control wiring.
Small-gauge copper wires are connected to low-voltage switches, which turn on and off relays and control the operation of lights, electrical receptacles, and other 120-Volt equipment.
Don't mistake this electrical wiring system with other low-voltage electrical systems, in which the switches, controls, and electrical devices themselves all run on low voltage (usually 24VAC).
Even with low-voltage wiring systems, the low-voltage electrical power is almost always supplied by a line-voltage 120VAC or 220VAC source, which is subsequently converted to the required lower voltage level. The building's electric meter and main electrical panel are the starting points for this power supply.
Furthermore, while low voltage wire switches and relays may be used to turn on and off building lights, receptacles, and other line-voltage devices, those lights, receptacles, and other devices may require line voltage to operate.
The switching equipment, such as interior lights or electric motors, will be powered by 120VAC or in some countries 220VAC "line voltage" electrical power.
The commercial or industrial low voltage systems cover a wide array of categories, and we discuss some of them below:
Fire prevention systems that are compliant are essential for saving lives and property in your facility. Low-voltage fire prevention systems like fire alarms and fire suppression systems are critical components of your total fire safety efforts.
A low-voltage system fire alarm system guarantees that everyone on the premises knows to escape during a fire emergency. The network could include simple single-building systems to a more elaborate fire alarm network across several locations.
This automated fire suppression equipment detects the presence of a fire and extinguishes it using dry chemicals, wet chemicals, liquid, gas, or foam instead of water. If you have dangerous products or fragile equipment on-site, you may need a fire suppression system.
To prevent theft and vandalism, as well as to keep your employees safe, building security is essential. A low voltage security system will include a CCTV surveillance system, an intrusion detection system, and an access control system.
Surveillance cameras, digital recorders, and monitors make up a closed-circuit television, which keeps you updated about what's going on in and around your facility. For optimal security, you may view live and recorded footage remotely with the correct network connection.
You can protect your facility against intruders with an Intrusion Detection System, which typically comprised a network of motion sensors, door and window contacts, panic switches, and other devices. When these sensors are activated, the police are automatically contacted if you have monitoring services.
With a low voltage access control system, you can monitor the movements of your employees around your facility. Access to some portions of your business, hotel, hospital, apartment complex, or other facility is restricted using card readers, biometric scanners, and other methods.
Paging and intercom systems, mass notification systems, nurse call systems, and wireless clocks are some of the low-voltage sound and communication devices to make sure essential messages get to the correct people.
Delivering messages in person across your business facility is inefficient, especially if you operate in a large institution. A paging and intercom system with call stations and speakers can help boost your company's efficiency.
It is the same in a healthcare setting. Relaying messages could mean the difference between life and death. It is important to install a low voltage nurse call systems, which includes real-time location devices, pages, wireless phones, and EMR databases. All these would help ensure that your staff receives all the information and messages quickly and efficiently.
Another type of low voltage communication system is a mass notification system, which makes it possible to deliver instructions quickly to people within a certain location. When an emergency strikes, every second counts. You will need proper networking systems to send long-distance messages or create calls to people offsite.
Synchronized clocks ensure that everyone in your company is working together. The chore of syncing your clocks is made easier with wireless clock integration, which is automated and easy to regulate from a central place.
All the systems mentioned above require an efficient low voltage network to function properly. You have a couple of connectivity or networking systems to choose from. First, you have structured cabling and the second is wireless connectivity.
For a range of media applications, choose a copper, fiber, or coaxial structured cabling system. These can link your business audio components together, connect your CCTV cameras to displays and recording equipment, and power your access control system. If you require guaranteed coverage and dependability, wired infrastructure is an excellent option.
Lighting that has automated or mechanical capabilities beyond those of standard, fixed illumination is referred to as intelligent or robotic lighting. Although the most powerful intelligent lights may create extremely complex effects, the lighting designer, control system programmer, or lighting operator, rather than the fixture itself, has the ultimate control. Intelligent lighting (ILS) is also known as automated lighting, moving lights, moving heads, or simply movers because of this.
Robotic lighting is fairly common in operating theatres. They are installed to give surgeons a clearer view when they’re operating. These lights are designed with LED luminaires, which allow the user to control the direction and intensity of light that is being projected onto the operating table.
When it comes to robotic lighting, you would benefit from our Wireless Industrial Grade COB LED Light. It is small in size but it is big on illumination. It is the perfect choice for when you want something ultra-durable and reliable. It is 100% shatterproof and waterproof.
This LED light is wireless and remote-controlled, and it has strobe, flash, or dim capacity. It is perfect for all kinds of installations. You can install it in your auto, RV, camper, yacht, boats, and more.
You can also use this for your photography equipment. You can use this outdoors for lighting, and it is perfect for camping.
