OEN seeks agents countrywide

January 2009 News

OEN Enterprises’ new Energy division markets the energy saving Somar Eluma lighting fixtures, Somar Integra intelligent motor controllers and Clarus, an energy saving refrigeration solution. The company is seeking qualified agents and distributors from the major centres around the country who will be trained by OEN on the energy saving benefits of these new products.

Somar’s Eluma range is an intelligent lighting fixture that delivers savings of up to 70% of the lighting costs in industrial and commercial facilities. The product range is designed for mounting heights between 5 and 16 m, and features both daylight compensation and proximity sensors. With a maximum connected load of 230 W, it achieves significant cost savings over conventional lighting fixtures.

Somar Integra is a unique, truly intelligent motor controller, which can provide dynamic control of an AC induction motor across a wide range of applications and conditions, and saves up to 40% of the motor’s electricity consumption in case-specific applications.

Somar Clarus is an anti-sweat control system that reduces energy costs within retail refrigeration systems by controlling the use of the anti-sweat heaters for glass display doors, frames and mullions. The patented moisture sensor technology automatically detects condensation and intelligently turns the heater on and off.
