Advantages offered by combined applications
Systems with interconnected Synco devices enable the individual devices to commu-
nicate with each other, offering a number of advantages:
Energy savings thanks to demand-based control
The most energy-efficient control systems generate heat or refrigeration only when a
consumer calls for heat or cooling energy. This means that every consumer – be it a
heating circuit, DHW heating equipment, an air conditioning plant, or an individual
room control system – calls for heat or cooling energy according to its current setpoint
at exactly the moment in time control is required. Since the times of usage can be
scheduled for each consumer, no unnecessary energy is produced, thus avoiding
waste.
Smaller number of devices, less installation material and reduced installation
effort
Since the individual devices communicate with each other, they are capable of ex-
changing information. For example, there is no need for every controller to have its
own outside temperature sensor, or to connect such a sensor to every controller.
Hence, one single outside temperature sensor is sufficient to make the outside tem-
perature available throughout the system. This means that the number of devices can
be reduced, less installation material is required, and the amount of wiring is mini-
mized.
Security and reliability thanks to automatic data exchange
Alarm messages are automatically exchanged between the individual devices in the
system. The messages can be centrally acquired, forwarded and evaluated, thus
increasing the plant’s security and reliability.
Enhanced comfort thanks to extended functionality
Programmed time switches and operating devices can transmit setpoints and opera-
ting modes to the controllers from a central location. This enhances comfort, saves
energy and increases the plant’s reliability.
