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.

Customer's description

Instalación KNX en dos edificios de oficinas, premiada en 2016 con el tercer puesto en los "Premios Mejor Instalación de Eficiencia Energética" en la Feria Internacional MATELEC, en los que se gestiona la iluminación interior y exterior y la climatización de las salas polivalentes. Además, de la automatización de ventanas y lamas motorizadas para el aprovechamiento de la luz natural. Las lamas están coloreadas dependiendo de la posición, pudiendo crear diferentes escenas de la fachada del edificio, consiguiendo un plus de diseño. Todas las zonas comunes de los edificios cuentan con sensores de movimiento, para el control de la iluminación. Se dispone de una estación meteorológica con la que se han realizado varias funciones de eficiencia, que gestiona iluminación exterior dependiendo de la luminosidad, y con sensores de viento y lluvia, para el cierre de las ventanas cuando se produce alguno de estos fenómenos meteorológicos.
