Building control

Why choose for a building control system?
(because it makes youre life so much easyer).

In a modern working enviroment you often find a wide variety of systems to make work easy and safe: heating, airconditioning, sunscreens, securitysystems, firedetection. All thes systems operated independant of each other and because of that controlling and maintaining of these systems is very costly and timeconsuming.
With a building control system we are able to integrate all these different technics. This is not only easy, it saves you mony in most cases. You can turn of the lights in a room where  no one is present. Or you can switch of power of appliance's when you switch on the alarmsystem to save energy. It is also possible to visualize all systerms in use in wich case you get a better overview and more control. Eventualy this reduces the costs of exploitation.




The technical aspects of building control systems : LON en EIB
A building control system is formed by all sorts of elements in a building like; lighting, sunscreens, heating, ventilation, airconditioning, securitysystems, acces controlsystems and powersupplies. All these different systems connected and making them talk the same "language" in order to get communication going makes an automated building. In most cases we use a "bussystem" for the building automation. There is no central unit, all inteligence is in the different components like switches or securitysystem. It is essential that all used components are using the same protocol. The most common systems are LON (Local Operating Network) and EIB (European Installation Bus). With each project we decide wich system meets the demand of our principal. Already there are a lot of products available on the market suitesd for LON and EIB and this development is an ongoing item. The advantage of a decentral modular system is its capability to put in additions. For controlling and monitoring of the system we mostly use webbased software with easy acces via internet.
