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

BIDFOOD is New Zealand company operating from distribution centres and processing facilities in 17 regional locations from Whangarei to Invercargill. The latest distribution centre is built in Taupo and had special requirements for operation, health & safety, energy efficiency, and control. The centre consists of office areas, and also of special areas and freezers where temperatures are as low as -25°. The lights in these areas were specially controlled for people safety and also energy efficiency utilising special High Bay sensors that are capable and reliable to operator on that temperature. At the same time, the visualisation on the touch panel depicts when any person enters or it is in the low temperature warehouses and alarms if the presence is recorded for longer time. Lights in other parts of the building are controlled by daylight harvesting or constantly controlled.
