UNIVERSITY OF NORTHAMPTON

Northampton

Simmtronic was awarded ‘Lighting Project of the Year’ as well as ‘Project of the Year’ at the Electrical Review Excellence Awards 2019 for our work on this project.

Lighting Control Highlights

  • Simmtronic implemented a fully intelligent DALI lighting control system across the Waterside Campus, providing energy saving and smart lighting throughout
  • Excluding student accommodation, we provided lighting controls across the university site, including: Learning Hub, Creative Hub, Senate Building, Engine Shed, Energy Centre, Sports Centre, all Public Realm
  • The smart lighting across the site is connected together using TCP/IP SPX.330+ Lighting Area Controllers, allowing the Campus Facilities Management Team to use one SPC.3020 Head End Processor for all of their smart lighting and maintenance needs
  • The university’s six different types of buildings have different types of requirements and control philosophies
  • The ability to provide automatic control of lighting output is present in the majority of buildings, courtesy of daylight dimming
  • All lighting controls are sub-addressed DALI, enabling smart lighting features throughout the campus

Simmtronic have delivered a large number of technically challenging projects for DBS and consistently continued to provide outstanding service. Their support, guidance and help throughout the process has been exceptional, working closely with our design teams to ensure the right solution for the project and a sound understanding of the brief, with our delivery teams to ensure the installation and commissioning are trouble free and then providing fantastic after care to the customer. They have added true engineered value into the projects they have been involved in for Derry Building Services.

Over the years I have really appreciated the Simmtronic ability to provide responsive support and listening to projects and clients needs. More recently the Simmtronic team has shown the capability to embrace the connectivity requirements of the Internet of Things by quickly adding MQTT to their range of integration protocols. This will greatly facilitate telemetry applications in buildings and the development of interconnected solutions that will make buildings more usable and easier to operate.

Simmtronic as an organisation has been, for the last 18 years, by far the best performing and most reliable lighting control system I use. From design through to commissioning and soft landings with the landlord teams Simmtronic always deliver on my projects. Simmtronic technology evolution is not just pushed through like others, but rather properly tested internally first, giving us as client teams the assurance that what Simmtronic say they can offer is 100% delivered, an absolute must with fast track major projects.

A Simmtronic lighting control system has successfully been installed and Simmtronic helped develop an exceptional system for both our concourse and back-of-house areas at Co-op Live. The system's quality is of the highest standard, with its advanced energy efficiency features supporting our strong commitment to operating a world-class, environmentally sustainable venue. Throughout the initial operational phase of the building, we found Simmtronic to be highly collaborative, responsive, and knowledgeable. The training provided was comprehensive, and the ongoing support has been outstanding
