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.

Ease of Use

By integrating KNX, we automatically experience a higher energy efficiency and comfort. Furthermore, by the possibility to use further devices, in order to make the usage of the project easier, we can look at further opportunity to even make the whole installation easier in usage.

Applications used

  • Lighting: Switching , Dimming , Timed Control , Automatic Occupancy Detection , Constant Light Control
  • Heating, Ventilation & Air conditioning (HVAC): Automatic Occupancy Detection
  • Blind and Shutter Control: Individual Control , Group & Central Control
  • Operation and Visualisation: Switches / Push Buttons , PC Visualisation , Touch Panels & Display Panels
  • Automation and Remote Access: Timed Functions

Customer's description

Tallest building in Malaysia and 5th tallest in the world with height of 644 meters, total of 118 floors. Compromising offices, retails and mall. Each open office floors will be install with Dali lighting, KNX DALI control enable easier upgrade in future without and hacking or changing of wiring. Each floors are also install with KNX daylight sensor for constant lighting and presence sensor to detect occupancy. All windows are installed with motorised blind and controlled by KNX. Centralise touch panel for each floor enable better operation both lighting and shutter blind. All the floors are connected to Building Automation System (BAS) via BACNET KNX to enable full control of the entire building. KNX sensors will also provide information to BAS in order to control HVAC via BAS.
