Evolution of building services
UNIFY SYSTEMS
Find out how today's technology can be leveraged to unify building systems to maximise both CAPEX and OPEX savings.
With the advent of "Flat IP" enabled architectures within buildings, backbone infrastructure can be used to unify building systems cost effectively.
This session explains how to leverage the right infrastructure to futureproof commercial buildings.
This session will be presented by Distech Controls vice president of international sales, Ryan Sen, who has more than 20 years of experience in HVAC.
THIS SESSION WILL examine building life cycle management from BIM models to the various dis- parate data sets used in design and construction.
It will cover facility and asset management plat- forms that are already starting to use AI analytics. The establishment of practical and enduring asset benchmarking and conditioning monitor- ing frameworks are essential to enable these platforms to provide high value insights to de- liver high performing building services assets,
better building environments, lower life cycle costs and reduced environmental impacts.
These insights are also starting to influence building services design and component selec- tion. Data is becoming a continuous system ‘de- liverable’, as organisations move away from the audit paradigm to a Darwinian model.
This is system evolution by natural selection driven by real world data.
This presentation describes these emerging
frameworks and methodologies, offers case study examples and explains how the technolo- gy is converging, and beginning to influence how we think about designing, constructing, operat- ing and maintaining the building services sys- tems in our built environment.
This session will be presented by Nathan Se- mos, executive manager at Virtual Buildings In- formation System, on day two of the ARBS semi- nar program.
Integrated control and analytics
THIS SESSION WILL fill the gap between cur- rent best practice and 'the holy grail' of integrat- ed solutions.
It will introduce participants to the world of sensors and analytics.
At the end of this session, participants will be able to understand the value delivered with product integrated control and analytics.
Bueno Systems founder, Leon Wurfel, will talk about the movement towards integrated solu- tions which will see manufacturers installing additional sensors in the factory, coupled with integrated control and analytics to deliver the true IoT device.
“These additional sensors will mimic the hu- man ability to look at the equipment and listen to the equipment, allowing the machine to per-
form preventative maintenance on itself,” ac- cording to Wurfel.
The machine will send a 'maintenance service report' at predetermined frequency to ensure 'maintenance' continues to be documented and to maintain compliance.
Equipment will undertake main- tenance and document perfor- mance logs instead of humans col- lecting this data. In the event of an issue, reactive maintenance can be completed on demand with the equipment communicating a very specified requirement to the main- tenance provider for a 'health check'.
The embedded algorithms will be basic in nature, primarily due to the
multitude of BMS sensors fitted as opposed to the need for complex algorithms.
If a component appears to be problematic, the equipment can order it from the factory and have it ready for replacement in conjunction with a single visit as opposed to multiple visits to estab-
lish root cause, then obtain spare parts and return to fit them.
Wurfel is passionate about data driven innovation and will present his seminar on the final day of the ARBS Exhibition, Thursday 18 Au- gust, 2022.
