Niko shows new range of daylight control, motion and smoke detector systems (5/2/2008)

Integrated Systems Europe 2008

Distributed exclusively in the UK by leading custom installation distributor, USD Limited, Niko, the market-leading Belgian control company made its mark at the Integrated Systems Europe 2008 show in Amsterdam with its new range of detector systems.

Niko now offers a wide range of motion and smoke detectors for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The outdoor detectors have an exceptionally large detection range and respond almost instantly to any movement. They are perfect for controlling garden or driveway lighting and can contribute significantly to major energy savings. A similar range is offered for indoor applications in both the home and in commercial offices and buildings.

Energy conservation is high on the list of priorities at Niko with its Daylight Control Detectors which allow the lighting in both a living or working environment to be automatically set to an optimal level matched to the level of the ambient daylight; and in doing so avoid unnecessary overuse of energy. Their installation is simple and the programming as easy as you would expect with a Niko home automation product. The lighting is controlled either by the Nikobus home automation system or through the use of a simple push button.

Another addition to the line-up, the new Niko smoke detector is an optical detector - so it doesn't use the familiar radioactive element and thus is environment-friendly for disposal. This attractively designed detector can be used singly or can be interconnected with others so that, for example, someone currently in a bathroom will be warned of a fire which may be in the in kitchen. The normal mains power is backed up by an emergency battery to ensure full functionality even when the power is off.
