Crestron 24 Volt DC Design Guide

Introduction

This design guide is intended to explain how to design a Crestron

system using EMerge Alliance

standards. Before understanding how a

Crestron system integrates with EMerge, it is important to know how

the EMerge Alliance infrastructure differs from today’s traditional infra-

structure. This guide will touch on the features and beneﬁts that applications of the EMerge

Alliance 24 Volt DC standard bring to the table, as well as go into detail on speciﬁc

Crestron products designed speciﬁcally for use with the new EMerge standard.

What is the EMerge Alliance?

The EMerge Alliance is a not-for-proﬁt open industry association leading the rapid adoption

of safe DC power distribution in commercial buildings through the development of EMerge

Alliance standards. The Alliance was established in 2008 by industry leading corpora-

tions including Armstrong World Industries, Johnson Controls, Nextek Power Systems,

OSRAM SYLVANIA, and Worthington Armstrong Venture (WAVE). The goals of the Alliance

are to create more energy efﬁcient and ﬂexible building spaces while improving overall

sustainability.

EMerge Technology

The Alliance developed an open standard that integrates interior infrastructures, power,

controls and a wide variety of peripheral devices, such as lighting, in a common platform to

reduce energy loss associated with powering the many digital DC powered devices found

in today’s workplaces.

Currently, the most common application is a low-voltage ceiling

grid, capable of powering lighting ﬁxtures. The beneﬁt is an extremely safe and ﬂexible

power distribution system for lighting and other potential future uses. In open-plan ofﬁce

space, rearranging desks doesn’t require high costs of rearranging lighting ﬁxtures. Simply

relocate an EMerge Alliance Registered ﬁxture to another spot on the grid.

Crestron and the Alliance

Crestron is currently a participating member of the EMerge Alliance. Participating members

are key suppliers of products and technology that comply with EMerge standards. As a

member, Crestron participates in committee proceedings and plays a role in the develop-

ment of speciﬁcations. Members have total access to all EMerge speciﬁcations, which are

critical in development of products.

Crestron has already developed a lighting control system for use with the 24 Volt DC

EMerge standard, and plans on continued development of sustainable products which will

help grow the standard platform.
