Harness the Power of Automated Lighting Control for Your Restaurant
Restaurants are bustling spaces, filled with the aroma of delicious food, the clinking of cutlery, and the hum of conversation. However, behind the scenes, they are also high-energy consumption areas, particularly when it comes to lighting. From the warm ambient lighting that sets the mood, to the bright task lighting in the kitchen, and the safety lighting in storage areas, restaurants use a variety of lighting types, all of which consume significant amounts of energy.
Moreover, the irregular and extended operating hours of restaurants often lead to lights being left on unnecessarily, resulting in high energy waste. This not only impacts the restaurant’s bottom line but also contributes to the larger issue of energy conservation.
To address this, Rayzeek offers a solution in the form of occupancy sensors. These sensors can automatically control lighting based on the presence or absence of people, reducing energy consumption significantly. In a restaurant setting, this means lights in the dining area, kitchen, restrooms, and storage areas can be automatically turned off when these spaces are not in use, without any manual intervention. This not only saves energy but also complies with energy efficiency requirements set by US Energy Codes/Energy standards.
Overhold energireglementerne
International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) er en modelstandard udviklet af International Code Council (ICC) med henblik på at fastsætte minimumskrav til projektering og udførelse for energieffektivitet i bygninger. IECC opdateres hvert tredje år for at integrere de nyeste praksisser og teknologier inden for energibesparelse.
IECC – Hvorfor det er vigtigt for dig
IECC er udbredt i delstater og kommuner over hele USA. IECC dækker forskellige aspekter af energiforbrug, herunder klimaskærmen (vægge, tag og vinduer), varme- og kølesystemer samt belysningsanlæg.
IECC stiller krav om specifikke belysningsstyringer, såsom tilstedeværelsessensorer, for at minimere energispild i ubrugte rum på tværs af forskellige områder.
ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1, Energy Standard for Sites and Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, er en vidt anerkendt energistandard udgivet af American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
ASHRAE 90.1 – Hvorfor det er vigtigt for dig
ASHRAE 90.1 anvendes som reference for bygningsreglementer i hele USA og fungerer som en overholdelsesmetode inden for IECC, der opstiller minimumskrav til energieffektive ydelser i erhvervsbygningers komponenter, herunder klimaskærme, HVAC-systemer, brugsvandssystemer og belysningsanlæg.
ASHRAE 90.1-standarden angiver maksimalt tilladte belysningseffekttætheder og minimumskrav til belysningsstyring, herunder brugen af tilstedeværelsessensorer i specifikke områder.
Title 24, del 6 af California Building Standards Code, officielt kendt som Building Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings, Title 24 administreres af California Energy Commission og opdateres med jævne mellemrum for at afspejle nye teknologier og metoder inden for energieffektivitet.
Title 24 – Hvorfor det er vigtigt for dig
Title 24 er kendt for sine strenge krav, der ofte anses for at være mere vidtgående end kravene i mange andre energireglementer i USA. Title 24 opstiller strenge energiydelsesstandarder for alle aspekter af bygningskonstruktion, hvilket omfatter opvarmning, ventilation, aircondition (HVAC), brugsvand og belysning.
Title 24 kræver installation af tilstedeværelsessensorer, der tilpasser belysningen baseret på personers tilstedeværelse i specifikke områder af erhvervsbygninger for at sikre, at der ikke spildes energi.

Design Guide Key Concepts for Restaurants
Designing an energy-efficient lighting control solution for restaurants involves strategic placement of occupancy sensors to ensure comprehensive coverage of the space.
In a restaurant setting, the placement of occupancy sensors can be tailored to the specific needs of each area. Here’s a possible design guide:
- Dining Area: Ceiling occupancy sensors can be installed to cover the main dining area. These sensors can automatically turn on the lights when guests are seated and turn them off when the area is vacant. To avoid any blind spots, ensure that the coverage areas of these sensors overlap. This ensures that the dining area is always well-lit when needed, enhancing the dining experience while saving energy.
- Køkken: Given the high activity level in restaurant kitchens, wall occupancy/vacancy sensors can be installed. These sensors can be manually turned on at the start of the day and when the kitchen is not in use, especially during off-peak hours, the lights can be automatically turned off, reducing unnecessary energy consumption.
- Restrooms: Restrooms in restaurants are ideal for ceiling occupancy sensors. These sensors can automatically control lighting based on occupancy, ensuring lights are not left on unnecessarily.
- Storage and Utility Rooms: In storage and utility rooms, where occupancy is sporadic, wall occupancy/vacancy sensors can be installed. These sensors can automatically turn the lights on when someone enters the room and off when the room is vacant.
- Manual Control: All lighting can be manually turned ON/OFF using the integrated controls in our occupancy/vacancy sensors. This provides flexibility for staff to control lighting based on specific needs or situations.
