Overview

Anyone planning to build or renovate an office building will be faced with the same old questions: Can I achieve long-term savings of energy costs? Can I secure the building against break-ins? How can I save time and expense if the building needs to be converted later for a different use? And how does comfort fit into all of this? Intebrated building technology provides the answers.

Intelligent technology promotes safety and security, for example when it comes to fire prevention. But it also helps keep your operating costs to a minimum. For example, just press the “Central OFF” button and your intelligent office will ensure that the lights switch off automatically after a short period of time. And that the power will be switched off for all socket-outlets which are connected to devices such as photocopiers and kettles.

Office life presents a whole host of very different challenges, not only for those who work there but also for the building lighting – in the grounds, at reception, in the corridors and in
the offices themselves. Intelligent technology not only allows you to flexibly  adjust lighting to your individual requirements – it can also have a positive influence on your energy bill and your security levels.

With presence detectors, you can save up to 30% on your heating and electricity costs. The lighting only switches on when the presence detectors installed in the corridors and offices detect that someone is in the vicinity. The lighting then switches off again when not required. If the lighting can be dimmed, it will be automatically adjusted to the external brightness. Even long corridors can be monitored throughout.

Potential energy savings can be exploited even further when the heating is integrated into the same system. For example, the heating can be turned down automatically at night if the presence detectors do not report any movement. . Save up to 30% on heating and electricity costs with presence detectors.

In addition, the sleekly designed presence detectors also function as alarm units at night to increase the security of your office building. If they detect a movement, an alarm signal will be sent to the security guard, for example

With indoor movement detectors, the lighting in corridors, stairwells, offices, toilets, basement access steps or seldom-used rooms can be switched on as it is needed.
As soon as someone enters, and not before, the light is switched on – automatic, convenient, and energy-saving.

Presentations in your conference room can be that bit easier to handle. From a technical point of view at any rate. Instead of running around pressing buttons before the start of your presentation, an intelligent conference room lets you control everything conveniently from a central switch unit. At the touch of a single button.

Before you begin your talk, you can ensure that everything is in place by activating the “Presentation” scene. The screen moves automatically into position. The projector switches itself on. The blinds are lowered. The ventilation system
ensures pleasant air conditioning. And last but not least, the lights are dimmed.


Mercedes Engines
Lighting control and energy management

The production of high performance race engines requires a lighting and energy management system to suit. Our system is fitted to offices, labs and test areas alike. This utilises the dimming qualities of the system to provide constant light levels coupled with presence detection in circulation areas for energy savings.



"The Street" Retail Area: Coventry
Lighting control and energy management

Control of the amenity lighting and architectural lighting is provided to enhance the shopping experience. With the security room as the main control area there are no risks of people tampering with local controls. This also allows the security service to easily control the lighting to open and shut the facility.



The Village Business Park: Nottingham
Audio and Video Distribution, Lighting Control and Energy management

Within this prestige office development, aesthetic lighting was required to create ambience throughout the office areas. Lighting was also targeted for an energy saving solution featuring presence detection and light level monitoring. This typically would lead to a reduction of around 25 %. Also included was audio and visual distribution to presentation rooms and office areas.
