Chemical & Water Technologies in Lighting Control Systems
Though not direct lighting technologies, integration with chemical and water-sensitive operations is essential. Lighting systems in washdown zones or near sensitive production lines are designed for corrosion resistance and water ingress protection. Lighting materials must meet NSF, IP66, or IP69K standards and resist chemical exposure from sanitation processes.
- IP-rated lighting fixtures
- Corrosion-resistant LED housings
- Chemical-proof light diffusers
- Hygienic lighting systems
- Vapor-tight luminaires
- UV-resistant coatings for lighting
Structural Technologies in Lighting Control Systems
Structural lighting considerations involve how lighting systems are mounted, integrated into facility architecture, and maintained safely. In F&B facilities, lighting systems are often installed in high-ceilinged areas, cleanrooms, or stainless-steel structures, requiring durable mounting systems and minimal disruption to infrastructure during upgrades or maintenance.
- Heavy-duty lighting mounts
- Vibration-resistant enclosures
- Cleanroom-certified fixtures
- Modular mounting frames
- Ceiling-integrated lighting panels
- Anti-condensation lighting designs
Electrical Technologies in Lighting Control Systems
Electrical systems power and regulate lighting control infrastructure. Advanced drivers, surge protection, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) enable reliable power delivery and system-wide control. In F&B settings, these systems must offer redundancy and protect against electrical disturbances that could compromise product safety.
- Dimmable LED drivers
- Programmable lighting relays
