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.

Applications Used

  • Lighting - Switching, Dimming, Light Scenes, Timed Control, Automatic Occupancy Detection, Constant Light Control, Lighting Colour Control

Customers Description

The project consists of 3 buildings with 24 LCS panels, approximately 632 KNX PIR and daylight sensors, 250 multi-gang KNX keypads, 75 dual-channel KNX-DALI gateways (premium version), and 25 multi-channel KNX switching relay modules. Each building is equipped with DALI-based dimming and switching lighting control systems, KNX PIR and daylight sensor control, and KNX multi-gang keypad control with multiple lighting scene settings and astronomical timing functions. The system also includes photocell control, centralized touchscreen control, and a centralized PC-based graphical NETx lighting control system integrated with the Fire Alarm System, BMS, Audio-Video systems, 4D immersion systems, and DMX interface.
