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 building is with 4 floors and entire building is controlled by KNX Intelligent Building Control which covers lighting, dimming, HVAC control, movement detection, scenes, background music and central monitoring PC. The common area corridors and meeting room are controlled for PIR sensors, meeting room with KNX switches to control the lights, HVAC and scenes. All individual rooms will be with KNX switches and for corridors will have zone wise switches. KNX background music is playing for each zones as per the design and controlled using common area KNX keypads. External facade DMX lights are interfaced using KNX-DMX gateway. The entire system is monitored using central PC and integrated with BMS, Fire alarm and Access control system
