The world-wide standard for home and building control Applications for correctional facilities Greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness with GAMMA building control Answers for infrastructure.
Successful management of correctional facilities Extremely high demands are placed on modern correctional facilities. Security and energy efficiency are two key concerns. Prison-cell systems should be easily manageable and protected from manipulation. All areas within the prison should provide optimal conditions for the efficient management of the facility in a cost-effective manner.
Efficient building management for modern and secure correctional facilities Economic management of correctional facilities With GAMMA instabus you enjoy all of the advantages offered by state-of-the-art building technology: energy-efficient and cost-effective facility management; the preventative safeguarding of people and property; as well as sophisticated yet easyto-use building system controls. GAMMA building management systems are the right choice for efficiency, safety, and comfort.
Presence-based lighting saves costs, without sacrificing security. Functions can be operated from a central control room. This considerably simplifies prison management activities. Where cost-effectiveness is at home GAMMA instabus lowers energy and operating costs while also assisting prison management activities. Centralized visualization With its central visualization, GAMMA instabus provides an up-to-date picture of the whole building and the operation of all building functions.
A constant light regulator that incorporates daylight only supplements as much artificial light as is necessary – less light closer to the window, more light closer to the wall. Lighting according to presence If guard or conference rooms are not in use, the light is switched off altogether. The lighting can be controlled by presence sensors, by being connected to an entrance control or a timer, or manually. Outside of core usage times, hallways and bathrooms in particular are only illuminated when in use.
Windows left open accidentally can be identified and closed before they pose a risk. Security comes first Lighting of exteriors and walkways can be easily controlled with GAMMA instabus. GAMMA instabus – 24/7 protection of people and property, to avoid damages and minimize incidental costs. Presence-dependent corridor lighting Accidents due to inadequate lighting can easily be avoided.
In the event of a fire alarm, lighting is switched on and electrical devices switched off systematically. Visualization shows location of danger Fast and proper reaction in case of danger is possible with visualization that shows where the event is taking place. External building monitoring Building areas not used at night can be monitored remotely from other parts of the building with GAMMA instabus.
Prison cells are functionally optimized with the building management system GAMMA instabus. Presence-based extractor fan systems ensure a pleasing room climate in sanitary areas. Thoughtful solutions throughout An intelligent building management solution should specifically cater to each of the many activities within a correctional facility. GAMMA building management systems provide the necessary multitude of functions.
Optimal lighting and room climate in visitation rooms. – Remote scenario control The individual holding a conference or presentation can select and activate various scenarios remotely, regardless of his or her current location. – Automatic deactivation of outlets The automatic deactivation of outlets and devices connected to them outside of defined usage times increases safety and cuts down on costs.
Savings One-time exchange of all light bulbs 1. exchange 2. exchange 3. exchange Third-switching with without Basic costs of replacement (transport to site, job order, ordering light bulbs) Costs of light bulbs The longevity of light bulbs is increased thanks to the “third-switching” method. Resources are conserved and costs reduced. brightness in the respective area. When nobody is present, lighting is reduced to minimal brightness or, outside of main usage times, switched off completely.
