Description détaillée

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.

Description des clients

In this project a university professor as one of the owners and his student reunited as engineers to provide a solution. After hundreds of hours spent in research labs with his professor and after 30 years the student had to pass exams again. The knowledge he was taught, and the KNX as tool composed an unbeatable formula. The challenge was to implement all the functions with the minimum cabling because the building is a real castle even to its inside. Full of stones and narrow corridors there was no room for heavy cabling. DALI for lighting bus control and sensing along with lot of wireless was the only solution. Power management for this "beast" was a must and the recent developments of energy cost pushed the decision for a "green castle". Solar and geothermal energy along with electrically controlled translucent and trans reflective windows actively controlled by a custom energy management application was the solution. Now the student expects the exams results for once more.
