Kulonspetset: ASUNO Pendant Automated outdoor lighting control system

Main article: What is the Internet of Things (IoT)

The automatic outdoor lighting control system (ASUNO) "Pendant" was developed for outdoor lighting control, as well as for remote collection of electric network parameters.

The "Pendant" system is a software and hardware complex consisting of a set of modules and specialized control room software. The system is a completely Russian development, the Kulon software is included in the register of the domestic POMincifra of the Russian Federation.

As representatives of Sandraks clarified to TAdviser, in 2022 the rights to ASUNO Kulon were transferred by Sandraks to Kulonspetskomplekt.

Architecture. Implementation effects

According to information for May 2022, ASUNO "Pendant" is this modular system with a wide range of functional units that allow you to implement various lighting control methods, such as:

• group control of lighting lines,
• dimming of gas-discharge lamps,
• individual dimming and polamp control of LED lamps, with two-way data exchange.

Thanks to the support of common protocols, the equipment of the Kulon system is able to integrate with the drivers of the lamps of most Russian manufacturers.

Use of ASUNO "Pendant" provides:

• reduction of costs for outdoor lighting operation due to optimization of lighting switching-on/off schedules, installation of daily individual work schedule for each facility (up to 10% of power savings);
• remote diagnostics of the condition of facilities (switch-on points) and prevention of various emergency situations (up to 30% of money savings due to a reduction in the costs associated with trips of crews operating lighting).

Moreover, for light-emitting diode luminaires, the method of individual (polampa) control and control is used using special modules integrated into the luminaire body, which saves electricity up to 60%, while repeatedly reducing the cost of operating outdoor lighting, the company noted. "Sandrax"

The Pendant system integrates with other information resources based on standard modern protocols, including within the framework of the Smart Road and Smart City concepts.

As of May 2022, ASUNO Kulon is used at more than 10,000 facilities throughout Russia, operated in more than 80 cities, on most federal and many territorial roads of the Russian Federation.
