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 , Light Scenes , Timed Control , Automatic Occupancy Detection , Lighting Colour Control
  • Heating, Ventilation & Air conditioning (HVAC): Central & Automatic Control , Timed Operation Modes , Individual Room Control / Zone Control , Valve Drive Control / Fan Coil Control , Floor Heating Control
  • Blind and Shutter Control: Individual Control , Group & Central Control , Automatic Programs
  • Security and Safety: Intrusion Detection / Alarm Systems , Presence Simulation , Supervision (e.g. Cameras)
  • Operation and Visualisation: Switches / Push Buttons , IR Remote Control , Touch Panels & Display Panels , Tablets and smart phones
  • Automation and Remote Access: Timed Functions , Internet Access , Remote Programming
  • Energy Management/Smart Metering: Metering , Current Detection , Peak Demand Monitoring , Use of Renewable Energies
  • Other: Audio Control , Home Appliances Control

Customer's description

Integration at its full potential. We wanted to integrate as much as possible onto the KNX system to allow as much control as possible without having to many 3rd party panels and an excess amount of switches. We were able to integrate non KNX products such as alarms, louvres and heating with the use of specifically chosen KNX products with unique abilities. The overall goal was to provide comfort and ease of use for all systems for the owner in the most practical way possible. Thank you to All our partnerships who helped with this project.
