Our solution

ABB offers a comprehensive range of solutions for reliable façade control.

Our Shutter Control Unit (JSB/S 1.1) effectively manages shutter and blind actuators in response to the position of the sun, ensuring optimal functionality.

The integration of weather data is a crucial component of building automation, enabling significant improvements in energy efficiency and long-term reductions in running costs.

Our Weather Sensor (WES/A4.1.1) accurately measures wind speed, rain, brightness, twilight, temperature, day/night, date and time, providing invaluable insight for building management.

The combination of window contacts with KNX binary inputs provides a flexible and intelligent way to control roller shutters based on the status of windows, enhancing comfort, security, and energy efficiency in any building.
