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

Le projet "COFICAB Intelligent Office Building Automation" consiste en la modernisation du système d'automatisation d'un bâtiment administratif de COFICAB à l'aide de la technologie KNX. L'installation intègre une gestion intelligente de l'éclairage DALI/KNX basée sur la détection de présence et la régulation automatique du niveau d'éclairement en fonction de la lumière naturelle mesurée par les détecteurs KNX. Cette stratégie de "Constant Light Control" garantit un confort visuel optimal tout en réduisant significativement la consommation énergétique. Le système assure également le pilotage de la climatisation Samsung VRF via des passerelles KNX dédiées, permettant une gestion centralisée, une régulation efficace et une adaptation automatique selon l'occupation des locaux. L'ensemble repose sur une architecture ABB i-bus® KNX, offrant une solution ouverte, évolutive, fiable et facilitant les opérations de maintenance.
