Savings from lighting according to requirements

KNX can control large groups of lights, either directly or by integrating the DALI standard, which enables the regulation of LED and fluorescent lights. The control can limit the maximum power values, as well as grouping the lights in lighting scenes. It also enables the use of astronomical clocks and conventional clocks to programme the on and/ or off times. On the other hand, when the external lighting provided is insignificant, the shades or shutters may be lowered to avoid light radiating to the outside.

It is possible to locate elements or rooms that consume more water than the average and then correct this trend and save on resources and energy

A good example in KNX can be found in sensors that are able to measure the water flow through a pipe. Thanks to this, it is possible to display instant information or generate records

Air renewal without losing hardly any HVAC indoors 

Thanks to KNX heat exchange systems can be controlled; the air inside a building can be renewed without incurring extra HVAC expenditure. Air renewal can be integrated with other systems that optimise it, such as detection of open windows, cool air recovery on summer nights (free cooling), or humidity and CO2 level management among others.
