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

A special category is the Basil & Elise Goulandris Foundation. The automation work carried out aimed at specialized ways of dealing, directly related to the very high demands of this project. Based on this, the use of the KNX technology was a one-way street, so that some of the most known risks of museum exhibits, such as environmental wear factors such as light, temperature changes, humidity, etc. Thus, the control Lighting, both the general and the exhibits, and the shading, passes to the systems of automatic control,giving the baton to the beautiful world of sensory,taking as a basic parameter, the external brightness and thus the incoming Natural light.Additional information on lighting control is the need to use SPECIFIC KNX Dali Gatewayequipment, since the drivers of all luminaires are compatible with this protocol. Each of the Dali Gateways is connected by cable, with an appropriate number of luminaires with integrated Dali Driver.THE KNX is integrated into the control of shades
