July 15, 2014 – Universal Lighting has entered the occupancy sensor market with Cento.

The line of occupancy sensors includes ceiling- and switch-mounted devices (colour variation options for switch-mounted), line voltage (120/277V and 347V), and low-voltage devices in both basic and feature-rich models. The Cento family includes 25 initial SKUs of PIR occupancy sensors, with expansion slated for later in the year. “Plus, Cento occupancy sensors may be paired with Universal ballasts or LED drivers to provide both component efficiency improvements and building-wide reduction of energy consumption,” noted Wally Creer, director of systems product and application engineering.
