COOPERSBURG, PA – Lutron Electronics Co., Inc., a manufacturer of light and shade control solutions, has launched the LED Control Center of Excellence, a new resource is devoted to LED lighting solutions. Questions about which LED products are compatible with which lighting controls have arisen, and the Control Center of Excellence aims to answer them.
For instance "dimmable" has not been clearly defined for LEDs. Despite manufacturers' claims for dimmable LEDs, many do not perform well with a variety of dimmers, nor have compatible dimmers been identified.
Topics include:
- LED features and challenges
- Control options
- The need for controls
- Product compatibility testing
- Educational materials
Another function of the LED Control Center of Excellence is to serve as a source of compatibility testing of LEDs lamps, fixtures, and drivers with Lutron controls to ensure compatibility and publish performance.
The LED Control Center of Excellence also includes an LED Compatibility Matrix to ensure compatibility between the LED array, driver, and control. More information is www.lutron.com/LED.
