Humidity Control and Evaporative Cooling
RDG200 thermostats.
Sustainable automation
SIEMENS SMART INFRASTRUCTURE’S
RDG200 thermostat series now offers a model that is natively equipped with a CO2 sensor and control functions.
They allow the indoor air quality to be moni- tored and adjusted to ensure a healthy and pro- ductive indoor air climate at all times for people in the building, while maintaining efficient operation.
When the air quality deteriorates because the CO2 concentration rises, the ventilation system is automatically adjusted and ensures that the right amount of fresh air is provided to the space.
The system thermostat can be natively inte- grated into Synco and Desigo systems from Sie-
mens or into third-party systems thanks to its open KNX communication capability.
With its new CO2 features, RDG200 not only ensures adequate ventilation when space occu- pancy is high, but also ramps ventilation down when CO2 concentration is low, thereby support- ing energy-saving strategies in the room.
A wide range of preloaded applications pro- vides a multitude of options for sustainable room automation.
The on-screen display informs the building user on the current CO2 status of the room. The one-touch Green Leaf function increases user awareness and promotes action to operate the space in the most energy efficient manner.
Fanning growth in APAC
THE GLOBAL COOLING fan market in 2021 was valued at $US7.14 billion, according to ResearchandMarkets.com.
The research firm said the market will be worth $US13 billion by 2026. That’s a growth rates of 12.73 per cent per annum.
ResearchandMarkets.com said the industrial cooling fan market will be the fastest growing segment with a compound annual growth rate of 17 per cent.
Segments set to see the most growth will be the industrial sector due to an increase in the robots used in manufacturing and the server cooling fan market fuelled by an exponential increase in the number of data centres around the world.
Overheating can become a severe problem for robots. Many robotics manufacturers use cooling fans to manage the temperature of their robots by putting them in the robots' bodies.
The Asia Pacific dominated the market in 2021 with almost 38 per cent share of the global mar- ket. The APAC region will lead the global cooling fan market during the forecast period due to an increase in the sales of smart appliances, mostly owing to the high purchasing power of consum- ers, and greater awareness about smart cities and smart integrated appliances. ✺
