Savings and Benefits of Minos System

Economic savings

The continuous, programmed use of Minos System allows important management savings and improves the quality of service to the citizen.
We continuously analyze the functions that allow relevant savings to the two main factors of public lighting system management.

Savings on energy costs

The main factors that allow Minos System to save up to 25% on energy costs compared to traditional management are:

the rationalization of the use of lamps by means of choking (switching off and the targeted reduction of flow)
the optimization of operating cycles
the reduction of day time switching on, in order to find faults
the reduction of line dispersions due to low power factor (lamps not correctly powered)
the reduction of the luminous flow of the lamps.

Savings on maintenance costs

The system of public and external lighting systems are characterized by a large number of nerve centres spread throughout the territory, for which it is necessary to constantly check and carry out maintenance. In particular, to urban areas where public lighting systems are greatly extended and widely distributed, with a very high number of electric switchboard panels and above all light points.

With the management offered by Minos System it is possible:

to save on the costs of staff, thanks to the optimization of intervention times
to save on materials, thanks to the aimed control of the actual faulty elements
to optimize the management of the warehouse and vehicles
to eliminate unnecessary costs, searching for faults
to save costs on the general organization of the service.

Numerous installations carried out up to now, have demonstrated that with Minos System it is possible to save on average 35% on maintenance costs compared to traditional management.

Quality benefits

Safety	Environment	Quality	Transparency	Just in time maintenance

It guarantees the presence of light at the right intensity where necessary. It prevents dangerous conditions generated by the system.	It reduces waste from out of order lamps, it reduces luminous pollution and contributes to "greenhouse gas" reduction in the atmosphere.	It guarantees good permanent operation of the system and service to the citizen, preventing eventual complaints.	It supplies precise information on management costs, it measures effectively the results of the installed components, measures the intervention times and the effectiveness of the maintenance worker.	The availability of information in real time allows timely and aimed intervention by the maintenance worker.
