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

The project presents a KNX-based system that dynamically adapts building ventilation based on real-time external air quality data. By integrating an IoT air quality sensor via API, the system evaluates outdoor conditions and continuously adjusts airflow in two independent ventilation zones. Instead of fixed modes, the system applies continuous airflow modulation, balancing indoor air quality, user comfort, and protection against pollutants. When air quality deteriorates, fresh air intake is reduced while maintaining a minimum ventilation level. When conditions improve, ventilation is gradually increased. The system also considers user interaction, such as window opening, ensuring that manual actions do not negatively impact indoor air quality.
