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

This case we integrate the technology KNX and Logic Machine. The project safe and implement energy efficiency, real-time visualization on the dashboard, control and constant dimmerization and programmed schedule, diverse sensors, gas e smoke sensor and dimming sensor. That contribute to generate economy in the operation family house. One metereologic station, control of and motorization of blinds, generate functionalities and personalized use. This challenge united several professionals who interacted to bring the result requested by the project. The opportunity to realize the dream of the client, the possibility of future integration of other items, the customization of the interface and future flexibility of KNX were key factors for a positive customer decision
