The production halls of the Berlin Siemens plant, where gas turbines are finally assembled, were equipped with outdated mercury vapor lamps. In addition to the immensely high power consumption of up to 1,000 watts per unit, the lamps also had different, undesirable light colors. Maintenance was extremely complex and expensive.

The hall’s outdated ceiling lights were to be converted to modern LED technology. The output per unit should be at least 700 lux according to the customer’s wishes. It was also important that individual hall areas could be switched to different light intensities and that a dimming function was available.

We successfully converted the hall to the latest LED lighting technology using BigTAB 4-clusters. In accordance with the customer’s wishes, a radio solution was implemented with which all lights could be controlled, programmed and dimmed. Since no new cables had to be laid for this, the conversion time was correspondingly short and the cost-benefit ratio was ideal from the customer’s point of view.
Instead of the required 700 lux, 1,000 lux were achieved in the end and SIEMENS was so satisfied that we were given follow-up orders.
