Tampa General Medical Group Chooses Acuity Brands LED Lighting and Controls

Tampa General Medical Group installed LED lighting and controls from Acuity Brands, Inc. in its newly constructed Family Care Center in Brandon, Florida. The 10,000 square-foot ambulatory clinic features the latest in modern lighting technologies to minimize energy costs and provide quality lighting for medical staff and patients.

The ambulatory clinic specified VT Series 2' x 2' LED luminaires from Lithonia Lighting®, with integrated nLight® digital controls. The VT Series LED luminaires deliver high-quality volumetric lighting to provide a uniform balance of illumination throughout exam rooms, nurses stations and waiting areas. The nLight® digital controls from Sensor Switch® enable convenient control of lighting for medical staff and patients. The luminaires feature capabilities that maintain a constant light level during the life of the luminaire, while saving an additional 10 percent of the energy compared to a VT Series luminaire without the nLight controls.

"The long life of the LEDs translates to less maintenance," said Jose Marotta, Tampa General Hospital Chief Electrical Engineer. "A high CRI allows doctors and nurses to accurately assess patient status and condition visually. Additionally, the controls adjust the LEDs with our customized settings, but with one touch, can be turned to 100 percent. It helps keep everyone comfortable while saving the most amount of money."

In addition to the VT Series LED luminaires, the space is also outfitted with a variety of other energy efficient lighting solutions from the Acuity Brands portfolio. Winona® Drums Series pendants and wall mounts were used for decorative illumination in conjunction with Lithonia Lighting downlights in the reception areas. Additionally, emergency lighting from Lithonia Lighting was placed throughout the facility.
