KNX-Beschattungszentrale

The shading controller KNX BZ-24 is a module for controlling shading, heat and privacy within the KNX bus system. The unit offers extensive adaptation options for the building situation and type of shading (e.g. without slats, horizontal or vertical slats including façade inclination, façade orientation, slat width). Up to twenty-four façades can be controlled by time, time or twilight, heat protection, heat radiation, automatic rain function (cleaning of blinds by rain), interior temperature lock for solar heat gain, brightness + sun position and outside temperature. Both the slats and the shadow edge can be adjusted to the position of the sun. Rain, wind and frost can also be taken into account. Time switching's are output via the integrated calendar and weekly timer. The corresponding data of date, time, sun direction, sun height, wind sensors, precipitation, measured twilight brightness, outside temperature and heat radiation must be available on the bus system (e.g. via the KNX-GPS-24VDC weather station from Schenker Storen AG). An activatable simulation mode allows a test mode to be run for each façade, or alternatively for all façades. Façade functions and façade automation settings can be set for each building. Façade status can be output transparently for each façade or alternatively for all façades. This allows the façade status and/or settings to be shown in plain text for each customer area, for example via a display. • 24-channel shading control per façade for up to 3 areas (two shade fields) on the basis of brightness and sun position, without sun position tracking, with 4-step sun position tracking and slat tracking with shadow edge and slat tracking • 9 binary inputs for potential-free contacts. Functions: switching, toggling, blind, shutter, awning, window, dimmer, 8-bit encoder, temperature encoder, brightness encoder, scene retrieval, scene save. • 12 wind values (wind zones) • 4 pyranometer values Configuration is via the KNX software from ETS 5 and above. The KNX application can be ordered from Schenker Storen AG
