Lighting only matters when it responds — to presence, daylight, or system logic. Ansell lighting control systems deliver that responsiveness with the reliability and precision expected in commercial, industrial, and architectural applications.
From DALI controllers and sensors to automation modules and test units, Ansell builds every component with the same discipline as its luminaires: clean wiring, stable communication, and easy commissioning.
These are not decorative add-ons — they are infrastructure components that let light behave intelligently, efficiently, and safely.
Modern lighting control begins with DALI. Ansell DALI controllers communicate directly with luminaires over the industry-standard DALI-2 protocol, ensuring interoperability across fixtures and systems.
Each controller manages up to 64 addresses per line, supporting dimming, emergency testing, and scene configuration.
The hardware uses reinforced isolation between mains and signal circuits, and configuration can be done locally or via software integration with BMS or KNX gateways.
For installers, terminals are clearly marked, addressing is straightforward, and diagnostics are built-in — simplifying setup for both small offices and complex multi-zone installations.
The efficiency of automation depends on accurate input. Ansell lighting sensors — PIR, microwave, and dual-technology variants — detect occupancy, motion, or ambient light with precision.
They interface directly with DALI or 1–10V control lines, adjusting output dynamically to maintain illumination levels while saving energy.
Compact housings blend into ceilings or luminaires; calibration pots and DIP switches allow quick tuning without additional tools.
These sensors are designed for continuous duty — no false triggers, no mechanical fatigue, just consistent performance day after day.
In offices, corridors, and classrooms, lighting shouldn’t depend on switches. Ansell presence detectors automatically activate when movement is detected and switch off after a configurable delay.
The detection fields are optimized for ceiling heights from 2.5 to 10 meters, with wide-angle coverage ensuring reliable sensing even in large rooms.
Combined with daylight sensors, they maintain brightness without over-illumination — a straightforward route to lower power consumption and longer luminaire life.
Good control systems respect sunlight. Ansell photocell daylight sensors measure ambient light and dim or switch luminaires accordingly.
By maintaining constant illuminance, they prevent energy waste while ensuring visual comfort.
The sensors use photodiodes calibrated to human eye sensitivity (Vλ curve) and respond quickly to gradual light change without flicker.
They integrate seamlessly with DALI or analogue control lines, suitable for atriums, offices, and external façades where lighting must adapt to daylight cycles.
For architectural and task lighting, Ansell dimming controllers offer smooth, flicker-free control across LED, fluorescent, and emergency circuits.
Available in DALI, 1–10V, or phase-cut configurations, they provide both manual and automated operation.
The control curves are logarithmic, ensuring comfortable dim transitions that match human visual perception.
Installers benefit from terminal labeling, isolation barriers, and compact housings that fit into standard DIN-rail panels or recessed boxes.
Emergency lighting requires verification — automatically and safely. Ansell emergency test units automate the process by simulating power failure, monitoring battery discharge, and logging test results.
DALI-compatible versions report directly to central systems, while standalone types include push-button initiation and LED status indication.
Units handle both maintained and non-maintained luminaires and comply with EN 62034 for self-test emergency systems.
Maintenance teams appreciate that routine testing no longer interrupts daily operation — the system handles it silently and records it accurately.
A modular system stays future-ready. Ansell lighting control modules include relay interfaces, scene controllers, input expanders, and logic modules that connect sensors, switches, and luminaires into one network.
Each module features removable terminal blocks, addressable communication ports, and status LEDs for easy diagnostics.
They fit onto DIN rails or into ceiling voids, allowing flexible topology — centralized or distributed — depending on project scale.
Engineers can configure timed scenes, daylight response, or emergency priority logic through standardized control lines.
Lighting control accessories that complete the system
Beyond the main devices, Ansell lighting control accessories — junction boxes, mounting frames, extension cables, and programming connectors — ensure clean installation and maintenance.
All parts share the same electrical and mechanical compatibility, maintaining IP ratings and insulation standards across the network.
Even details like labeling kits and terminal covers are designed to match the system’s layout — nothing improvised, everything deliberate.
Lighting automation — efficiency built in
With automation, lighting becomes part of the building’s nervous system. Ansell lighting automation integrates sensors, dimming, and emergency control into one coordinated network.
Scenes adapt dynamically to occupancy and daylight; scheduling ensures only the necessary zones operate at full power.
When combined with DALI gateways, the system interfaces with HVAC or security controls — delivering full smart-building integration.
For facility managers, that means less energy waste, simplified maintenance, and consistent user comfort — all through standardized hardware and logic.
Built for real-world conditions
All Ansell control components undergo thermal, electrical, and endurance testing.
Connectors maintain contact pressure, sensors stay stable under humidity, and modules pass EMC compliance for interference-free operation.
Once commissioned, the system requires minimal adjustment — proof that good design doesn’t need constant supervision.
