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

It's a company sustainability project for energy saving. It's also a renovation project that covers more than 5000 square meters with more than 470 KNX devices. There are include KNX button panels, KNX presence sensors, KNX line couplers, IP routers, and KNX meters. Thermostats are connected through IP. Through the KNX IP router, the entire KNX system is integrated into Home Assistant. Thanks to the presence detection sensors, all lights and air conditioners can be automatically switched on and off. Based on the automation function of Home Assistant, thermostat operation mode, temperature setpoint, and fan speed can be set which based one time scheduler, environment temperature, or employee habits. all system devices can be monitored and controlled in home assistant platform. same time, A special KNX showroom was built in this project. which was used to promot KNX and STKNX solutions to potential KNX customers.
