20 years of the presence detector Don’t sleep through the birthday of the presence detector! Hard to believe, but true: The presence detector celebrates its 20th birthday in 2012. The ECO-IR was developed at Theben‘s High Technology Systems Laboratory at the start of the 1990s. With ThebenHTS presence detectors, you are choosing the »original one«. Since then, Theben has worked flat out to maximise areas of application, ease of use and efficiency. One­ outstanding feature of the ThebenHTS presence­ detector is its squa­ e dete­ tion area: This avoids r c ­ unnecessary overlapping and blind spots....

Presence detector technology Why presence detectors? A technology and its benefits. Motion detectors and presence detectors – what‘s the difference? Both detect human beings based on their body heat, albeit to a different technological quality and are there­ y­intended for different b app­ications. Motion detectors were originally l developed specifically for outside applications and are neither equipped with active light measurement nor are they highly-sensitive to slight move­ ents. In contrast to presence m detectors that react to the slightest cha­ ges n and detect people when they are seated...

»Presence detectors are one part of a building that architects don’t like to be seen. The flush ceiling installation shows that Theben HTS AG is very close to achieving this target. That means you don’t have to do without a particular technology that is extremely useful for aesthetic reasons.« LOOC/M Architekten / Jens Vorbröker / Frankfurt

Presence detector technology Energy-efficient. Comfortable. Reliable. Presence detectors from ThebenHTS. Intelligent lighting control with presence detectors from ThebenHTS. ­ In addition to classic use for lighting control in offices, corridors and public buildings, our presence detectors are capable of much more. Energy-efficient. Presence detectors react to the slightest movements. They also measure room brightness at the same time. If no more movement is detected, or a set brightness value is exceeded, the presence detector automatically switches off the light. Square detection area of 360º....

»We have reduced our energy consumption by an average of 30 % and in parts by up to 60 %. We are more than satisfied with Theben HTS AG.« Roland Trüssel / head of Coop building services

Coop Schweiz AG, Wangen Warehouse light with presence detector with compact passimo presence detectors. Presence-dependent lighting. Over 1,900 retail outlets in Switzerland want to be supplied with goods. The­huge Coop logistics operation is centred at the national distribution centre (NVZ) in Wangen near Olten. The lighting systems in the extensive highrack warehouses are very significant. In order to optimise consumption, lighting should only come on if someone is present in the warehouse aisles and go off automatically ­ afterwards. Previously, the lighting was switched on permanently. Control...

Aesculap AG, Tuttlingen Lighting management with presence detectors PlanoCentro KNX. Efficient room lighting for the modern office. Framed by the modern architecture of the Aesculapium and highly technical production plants, the historic Aesculap building is a Tuttlingen landmark. The industrial a t ­ rchi­ ecture of 1898 is listed and is now used a ­ s office space. The historic exterior of the building houses modern offices that meet ­ the demands of today’s working environment. That’s why it’s now being modernised. In updating the electrical installations and room l ­ighting, the company is...

»We tested and compared them with other devices. That made us realise the Theben HTS product had the better detection quality and switches more reliably.« Patrick Lochbaum / System administration / AESCULAP AG

»We have been absolutely convinced by the detection quality of the compact office EIB. The square detection area reduces the number of detectors required, which reduces programming tasks and expenditure on the project.« Paul Davies / Lead Project Manager/ EnTech
