Modular portfolio
for electrical and
HVAC systems
Complete KNX portfolio for electrical
and HVAC systems
The interdisciplinary portfolio from
Siemens includes all the components you
need to create a pleasant room climate
based on KNX. As everything is from a
single source, implementing a comfortable
building and room automation is easy
and
straightforward. This minimizes instal-
lation and operating costs and maximizes
reliability. In addition, ETS* allows you to
flexibly program the interactions between
the individual systems.
Intuitive room and system operation
with maximum ease of use
KNX-enabled display and operator units
make even complex functions easy to
use. Our offering ranges from simple
switches to multifunctional room opera-
tor units to web-based operation using
established PCs, notebooks, tablets and
smart phones. Additionally, users get
assistance from functions such as the
energy indicator. A green leaf
icon indi-
cates whether a system is running energy-
efficiently or changes are
needed. The
display and operator units
are available in
different designs and match with
existing
switch and standardized frame programs.
Long-term investment protection
and ensured future compatibility
Backward compatibility is a major factor
in the development of KNX products
and systems. It allows innovations to
be integrated seamlessly into existing
installations.
As an open and vendor-independent
communication standard, KNX offers
an additional measure of security. It is
extended continuously to ensure that
existing KNX systems will be supported
in the future so they can be modified or
expanded.
Reliable support from an experienced
KNX provider
With Siemens, you benefit from the exper-
tise and experience of one of the compa-
nies that founded the KNX Association.
For example, certified KNX ETS trainings
give you access to our expert knowledge
gained from over 20 years of working on
the development of the KNX standard. In
addition, the wide variety of functions and
applications can be tested and practiced
using special training cases. During com-
missioning, you will receive detailed techni-
cal documentation on the tested applica-
tions to ensure that you are ideally prepared
for your projects.
Princess Andriana Resort and Spa, Rhodes, Greece
Maximum guest comfort and simple, cost-efficient maintenance: In this
luxurious 5-star resort, the front desk can preset the room temperature
to a comfortable level and guests can adjust it in their room within prede-
fined limits. Presence detectors are used to control the lighting in public
areas as needed. In addition, predefined scenarios make it possible to
control multiple disciplines in one operation. Visualization software is
used to monitor the individual functions and adjust them from a central
location when necessary.
