Synco-Gamma Application Guide School building – class room www.siemens.
More efficiency in schools – with Synco and Gamma building control Requirements School buildings require special building technology solutions. They demand low construction costs and economical operation. The buildings must ensure optimum learning and working conditions, the lowest possible energy consumption, safe operation, and protection against damage and vandalism. In addition, they must safeguard people in case of emergency.
Overview No.
Room usage scenarios In class rooms the following usage scenarios are supposed to be probable: HVAC This could be a possible HVAC scenario: The room temperature is increased at 6.00 – controlled by a time schedule – to the Precomfort temperature setpoint (20 °C) and reduced again at 21.00 to the Economy temperature level (18 °C). Also, when people enter the room, the temperature is increased to the Comfort level (21 °C) and reduced again when people leave.
