Heart hospital uses Leviton Lighting Controls in patient and public areas to create a calm and safe healing environment.
The Challenge
A new heart hospital in Arkansas wants to control the lighting in patient areas, elevator lobbies, and “back of house” areas like private offices and lounges.
The Installation
Leviton worked closely with project specifiers and the agent to create lighting controls for public, private,and patient areas.
The Solution
Leviton installed GreenMAX DRC Line Voltage Room Controllers and Smart Packs in the patient rooms for a networked multi-zone control solution. This allows patients to control the lighting in various locations in their rooms from the pillow switch.
Sapphire Touch Screens installed at the nurse’s stations allowed nurses to create a comfortable, healing environment for patients from one centralized control station.
In the “back of house” areas such as private offices, storage spaces, and restrooms, Leviton installed OSSMT and ODS10 sensors to save energy and to meet energy codes for occupancy/vacancy requirements.

GreenMAX DRC enables a full suite of lighting control capabilities, including programmable room behaviors, occupancy/vacancy sensing, daylight harvesting, scene control, and multi-location control for different types of lighting for virtually any application.
