Product Description
ETC TAP-31-U Echoflex Photo Sensor TAP-31, 902MHz
Overview
The TAP-31 (Task Ambient Photo) sensor is designed to provide a reliable and simple method of increasing energy savings by adding daylight harvesting to your Echoflex lighting control system.
Using standard EnOcean profiles, the popular TAP-31 sensor adds exterior light level monitoring up to 65,535 lux (6,090 fc), making the sensor suitable for both closed and open loop daylighting applications.
Batteries are not required for everyday operation due to the advanced solar energy harvesting and power management features. After installation, the sensor will operate with exposure to light as low as 50 lux (5 fc) for 5 minutes. The TAP sensor is capable of operating over 70 hours in darkness from a maximum charged level.
The sensor incorporates diagnostic and configuration features to ensure reliable performance and solar harvesting capability. Solar energy harvesting under existing light levels is provided on demand through LED indication. An accelerated transmission mode is available when energy code compliance inspectors need to verify system operation. And Echoflex’s Simple Tap configuration feature makes it easy to set operational parameters at the sensor after installation. All these built-in options allow installers to make changes without any special tools or apps.
