BMS systems are “Intelligent” microprocessor based controller networks
installed to monitor and control a buildings technical systems and services
such as air conditioning, ventilation, lighting and hydraulics.More specifically they link the functionality of individual pieces of building equipment so that they operate as one complete integrated system.
Now installed in every major building or facility with the availability of direct integration into all other building services such as security, access control, CCTV, fire, Lifts and other life and safety systems.
Current generation BMS systems are now based on open communications protocols and are WEB enabled allowing integration of systems from multiple system vendors and access from anywhere in the world.
The most common primary function of the BMS is the control of a buildings Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Systems (HVAC) including;
– Air Handling Units
– Chilled Water Plant
– Cooling Towers
– Tenant Condenser Water
– Heating Water Plant
– Exhaust Systems
– Zone Controls
