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
University of Santiago de Chile is one of the biggest Projects in Chile and even in Latin America. This Project has 13 levels that 5 levels are for parking and Offices usage and 8 levels are for educational usage that all lighting of this Project is covered by KNX sensors and Actuators. On the other hand, in this Project, we had HVAC Systems which had BACnet Protocol so we used wiser KNX from Schneider which make easy to connect BACnet and Modbus Protocol with KNX without any Problem. We Used all of Equipment’s with Schneider Brand. in KNX we have so many companies which produce wide range of equipment’s to control a building without any limitation.
