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

Over 7000 DALI lights cover entire building using more than 1000 presence detectors with light level configured for 90% to save the energy. Meeting rooms and other top management offices are with sensors and KNX switches for different scenes as required. Building is with 24 lines distributed into 3 TCP/IP connections which is controlled and monitored by PC using NETx. Main attraction is external facade RGBW lights interacted by DMX-KNX gateway which will be triggered using timer. The lighting control system is interfaced with BMS using BACnet and Fire alarm using universal interface.
