BMS
INTRODUCTION
What we know about buildings?
A building management system (BMS) is a control system that can be used to monitor and
manage the mechanical, electrical and electromechanical services in a facility whether it is a
Tunnel, Airport Facility, Hospital, Tower or any large building; such services can include include,
but are not limited to, power, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, access control, pumping
stations, elevators and lights .
ADVANTAGES
Energy Efficiency
Building automation and control is particularly effective in achieving reductions in energy consumption and demand. Compared to improvement measures involving the building shell or mechanical equipment, building automation and control generally requires a smaller investment while achieving significant energy savings, reduced emissions and the quickest simple payback time. Siemens Building Technology is continuously developing ways to make energy efficiency more manageable through:
- Superior quality products that boost industry leading control accuracy.
- Innovative control applicants designed especially to optimize energy usage and reduce costs.
- Simplified monitoring and reporting functions that make energy management decisions easier.
