Advantages

In comparison with classic electrical installations, an intelligent building control system offers noticeable advantages. All the different functional subsystems within the building are integrated via a bus connection to a single communicating system. This enables the optimal, energy efficient interaction of the subsystems, which is almost impossible with conventional technology.

More comfort, more efficiency, more safety

This ensures that the building well be up-to-date and profitable in the long-term thus ensuring a short amortization period.

KNX - The standard

knx_logo_292x196

KNX is the first globally standardized system for the automation of residential and non-residential buildings in accordance with the international standard (ISO/IEC 14543-3), the European standard (CENELEC EN 50090, CEN EN 13321-1 and 13321-2), the Chinese standard (GB/Z 20965) and the US standard (ANSI/ASHRAE 135).

ETS – The universal KNX software

ets_software_292x196

Electrical professionals can simply select products from a database by drag-and-drop, set the parameters and interconnect sensors and actuators with one another. After a KNX installation has been successfully commissioned, the ETS software tool assists in the creation of the project documentation. The ETS runs under the current versions of Microsoft Windows®. ABB offers comprehensive training programs for the parameterization and commissioning of the ABB i-bus® KNX system.
