Detailed Description

Energy Efficiency

The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation

Innovation

Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description

Tech Gate designed, programmed and commissioned a KNX-based building automation system for Al Ushibe Holding Group in Benghazi, Libya. The project comprises 105 Ekinex KNX devices distributed across five KNX lines and interconnected through KNX line couplers. The system provides centralized and decentralized lighting control through Ekinex control interfaces, with human presence and motion sensors supporting intelligent occupancy-based lighting functions. An Ekinex local server provides local visualization and system control. Tech Gate was responsible for the complete KNX programming, configuration, commissioning and functional testing using ETS, delivering a reliable, structured and scalable building automation solution.
