APPLICATIONS
The use of an intelligent building system is particularly recommended for buildings which
require an optimised installation in terms of maximum flexibility and comfort, combined with
minimum additional cabling, e. g.
in banks and building societies, office and administration buildings, hospitals, hotels,
department stores, industrial warehouses, schools etc.
Light and sunblind control is a important part of the system as it represents a major part of the
potential energy savings.
LIGHT CONTROL
Lighting units may be controlled both centrally and locally. The light can
be dimmed or switched at predetermined times. In addition, it can be made dependent on
indoor or outdoor brightness levels and whether the building – or a given area of the building
– is currently occupied or not, so that the presence or absence of building users so that
energy and operating costs are reduced.
Scene control provides the opportunity to store brightness levels, and of retrieving the settings
via push buttons or an IR remote control as often as required, making it possible to operate
any lighting scene within seconds.
SUNBLIND CONTROL
Sunblinds can similarly be controlled both centrally and locally. Wind, rainfall and temperature
sensors detect the weather conditions,
and drive the outdoor venetian blinds automatically into a safe position
if required. Via scene control, the sunblinds can adopt a preset position with one key press.
The automatic panel adjustment function calculates the current sun position depending on
date, time and location of the building, and adjusts the panels in such a way that optimum
transparency and antiglare protection are provided at any time. In addition, sunblind control
can be combined with HVAC control. According to the incident solar radiation and the
particular room temperature, the blinds are lowered to avoid overheating.
