The world is making gigantic steps towards digital environments and Building Management Systems (BMS) are enabling the buildings to become increasingly connected, remotely controlled, and energy-efficient. However, there doesn’t seem to be a simple, universal integration solution between the BMS and the most energy-consuming system within the buildings: The Heating Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC).
We serve this through our group of associates and a list of systems that can be monitored or controlled by a BMS is shown below:
• Illumination (lighting) control
• Electric power control
• Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC)
• Security and observation
• Access control
• Fire alarm system
• Lifts, elevators etc.
• Plumbing
• Closed-circuit television (CCTV)
• Other engineering systems
• Control Panel
• PA system
• Alarm Monitor
• Security Automation
Benefits
• Possibility of individual room control
• Increased staff productivity
• Effective monitoring and targeting of energy consumption
• Improved plant reliability and life
• Effective response to HVAC-related complaints
• Save time and money during the maintenance
• Occupancy sensors allow automatic setback override during unoccupied periods as well as adaptive occupancy scheduling.
• Lighting controls reduce unnecessary artificial lighting via motion sensors and schedules as well as by controlling daylight harvesting louvers
• Controllers save water and energy by controlling rainwater harvesting and landscape irrigation
