4 Hours of Instruction: Earns 0.4 CEU / 4 PDH
Now accepting registrations for program beginning May 16, 2012
Presented online in a series of two live two-hour time modules, this seminar is designed to show you step by step how to select the best, most effective lighting solution for a broad spectrum of high bay applications.

You can participate in the seminar from your office, home, or anywhere you have access to the internet and a phone. You'll have opportunities to interact with your instructor and colleagues in real time during the two live teleconferencing sessions.

ABOUT THE SEMINAR

AIA Learning Units Eligible


This course has been approved by AIA for continuing education credits. The AIA requires that its registered architect members earn 18 Learning Unit (LU) hours of continuing education credit annually (eight hours of which must be related to Health, Safety, and Welfare topics and four of those eight in Sustainable Design) to remain in good standing. Architectural boards in 40 states, 10 Canadian Provinces, and 19 countries have implemented mandatory continuing education (MCE) for re-licensure.

The Association of Energy Engineers is an approved training provider within the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Continuing Education Systems (CES) Registered Provider program.

It is now possible to achieve substantial savings in high bay settings by replacing energy-wasting standard metal halide, high pressure sodium and mercury vapor lighting with newer technologies. But how do you determine the best option? The choices used to be T8, T5HO, induction, or electronically ballasted pulse-start metal halide. Now there are also additional options, including T8VHO, solid state metal halide, and LED. This program will take you through the pros and cons of each of the established and new technologies for a variety of high bay applications. Controls will also be covered.

The seminar is structured as a simulated contest to determine the "winning" technology for specific high bay applications, assessing one by one the critical component features of each technology, as follows:

Round 1 – CRI & Kelvin
Round 2 - System Efficacy
Round 3 - Lamp Temperature & Light Output
Round 4 - Ballast, Generator & Driver Issues
Round 5 - Visual & Physical Impacts
Round 6 - Aesthetics
Round 7 - Control Flexibility
Round 8 - Cost Effectiveness
Round 9 - Lamp Life & Maintenance
Round 10 - Mercury, LED & Other Environmental Concerns

Each attendee will pick an application, such as warehouse, industrial facility, gymnasium, big box retail, auditorium, or cooler/freezer, and judge which technology wins each round, as well as the entire contest.

You'll gain a clearer understanding of how to avoid being misled by manufacturers that are "one trick ponies," how T8s compare with T5HO fluorescents and the importance of thermal testing. You'll leave this program with a more finely tuned factual basis for selecting the best lighting for use in a broad range of high bay settings.
