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

  • Blind and Shutter Control: Individual Control , Group & Central Control , Preset Positioning , Automatic Programs , Wind and Rain Protection , Sun Tracing (interaction with HVAC / lighting)

Customer's description

Zero energy building and next-generation offices for intellectual productivity improvement LEED V4 BD+C New Construction :PLATINUM BELS:5stars CASBEE:S The main purposes is to control External venetian blinds(EVB),Internal venetian blinds(IVB) and Ceiling roller blinds(CRB).Our sunshading system has sun slat tracking,timer function and other functions in market.In general,EVB cannot be used during typhoon,however,workers in the space never feel glare by operating installed IVB as a backup.In addition,monitoring thermal enviromnet in the space enable efficient gaining and shading sunlight.
