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

Qatar’s growing population means an increasing number of patients rely on Hamad Medical Corporation’s trauma and emergency services. To help meet this demand and ensure the continued provision of high-quality trauma and emergency care, the Trauma and Emergency Center has opened on our Hamad General Hospital campus. Marking a significant expansion of trauma and emergency services in Qatar, it is four times the size of the former Emergency Department and the largest in the region. The bespoke complex ensures that those need of urgent medical care can be received and treated through the See and Treat on the ground floor of the Center as well as via the trauma, urgent and critical care services available across its remaining three floors. The facility offers a greatly improved patient experience. With spacious and mainly private rooms, patients have an unparalleled level of comfort and can recover in a state-of-the-art healing environment.
