ESYLUX - Easily connect a KNX multi-sensor: New version of the ATMO presence detector from ESYLUX

The VOC sensor requires an additional 30 volts of DC power. The new version is simply connected using two free wires of the KNX cable.

VOCs — The main reason for ventilation

Volatile organic compounds are anthropogenic or biogenic vapours, e.g. from synthetic and building materials, carpets and cleaning agents, or people and food. Excessive concentrations have a negative effect on mood, cause eye irritation, headaches, fatigue, dizziness and reduce performance. They are an everyday occurrence, particularly in enclosed spaces such as conference rooms, offices, waiting rooms, classrooms and sanitary facilities.

Energy only when it's needed

To control air-conditioning or ventilation systems based on VOC detection, ATMO presence detectors use three individually configurable limit values. For temperature and humidity there are two limit values. Just like the presence and daylight dependent constant light control, devices are only active when people are present. As a result, energy is only consumed when it is really needed and only at the necessary level. Furthermore, an acoustic sensor supports the passive infrared presence detector to detect movement in areas with poor visibility.
