Ceiling Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors

 Wasted lighting can account for a majority of a building’s total energy usage. And with many building spaces remaining unoccupied between 40% and 70% of the day, lights left on are a real energy drain. Lutron wireless occupancy/vacancy sensors automate the switching and dimming of those lights, saving energy and money.

Going wireless eliminates the need for costly new wiring. Radio Powr Savr sensors by Lutron install in as little as 15 minutes and communicate with compatible Lutron dimmers, switches and light control systems using reliable Clear Connect RF Technology, which ensures smooth, consistent performance.

Lutron wireless sensors reduce installation time by over 70%* over wired options.
