The lighting system is an important part of the BMS building management solution . One of the most popular and reliable solutions is the KNX – Commercial Lighting Control solution from Schneider Electric. Schneider Electric’s KNX solution is an INTERNATIONAL STANDARD Commercial Lighting Control System approved worldwide for building lighting control in buildings.
Best light in critical areas
In crowded areas during the day or at night, lights must be turned on 24 hours a day. Not only that, it also has to take into account lighting management to conserve energy – the light can be automatically increased or decreased, turned on / off, or can also be operated according to the demand. Daylight can be fully utilized, and the system can be operated automatically thanks to pre-programmed programs according to the time and range of operation.
The public areas are divided into several zones for convenience of operation. In crowded areas, the lights are continuously lit with the highest brightness. In areas that are only active at certain hours, the light is controlled based on whether the area is active or not. In inactive areas, lighting devices will reduce the brightness by 10%, while in active areas, the light is always 100% guaranteed. For example, in WC zones, when there are no people, motion sensors reduce the brightness from 100% to 50%, and when people enter the light is activated again to its maximum level.
Likewise, the lighting and HVAC systems in offices and service rooms can be controlled by presence sensors. This means comfort, comfort and desires are completely fulfilled. The special lighting in inactive areas can also be controlled manually. Lighting functions can be controlled and set up from the control station of the CMS management system.
Integrating many building management functions.
A flexible system that can be interconnected with other standards and offers the option of incorporating independent functions into the central control station of the building… is the key to the KNX solution’s outstanding advantage. The latest functionality is controlled by IP routers, KNXnet / IP and Ethernet networks with scalability and integration through the Bacnet IP protocol, the most common protocol in BMS systems. This enables centralized control of the lighting system and displays error messages via the BMS building management console.
The monitoring control system (CMS) of the heater, ventilation and air conditioner will rely on the presence sensor signals installed in the room to create the most appropriate temperature level. The alarm signal from the fire alarm system will activate the “emergency” indicator light and the light in the emergency exit, and it is also important that KNX will help you to save maximum energy consumption costs.
The benefits that KNX bring
KNX provides the ideal standard for lighting control, energy conservation systems.
– The combination of KNX with BM building management system, heating system, ventilation, air-conditioning (HVAC), fire alarm system, energy management system (Power Monitoring) and an intuitive software interface that provides essential standards for complex applications – applications that require energy conservation, safety and comfort.
Technology improvements
– The ability of the KNX system is demonstrated by the fact that it can control up to 100,000 lighting devices, and the perfect combination of functions such as light on / off control, brightness increase / decrease, Light sensors, presence sensors, logic control devices, and centralized management with intuitive control interface.
