In
building automation networks, the open, neutral BACnet (Building
Automation and Control Networks) communication protocol creates the
option for exchange among the sensors, actuators, and management systems
of different manufacturers.
The BACnet
International industry association supports the successful, global
application of the BACnet protocol. Phoenix Contact is now an official
member of this Who’s Who of Building Automation.
With the
Emalytics building management system and matching IoT controllers, the
company from Blomberg, Germany facilitates building automation using
protocols that are widespread in the building sector: BACnet, for
example. At the same time, Phoenix Contact solutions successfully build a
bridge to smart IoT technologies, taking the increasingly complex
security requirements of the IT world into account.
Bernhard
Tillmanns, Director Global Industry Management Building Technology,
said: “Because Phoenix Contact is an industrial automation provider,
international standards are extremely important to us. We require all
types of data to create added value for building operators and users
with our solutions. We are pleased to be part of the BACnet
International network. Based on the existing building industry
standards, we want to develop our innovations further and firmly
establish topics such as digitalization and security in the building
management industry with our solutions.”
Phoenix
Contact has many years of comprehensive process know-how in the
industrial solutions business. With its own Emalytics building
management system, it provides a building-to-IoT platform. Emalytics
gives building operators key information at a glance so they can design
sustainable, efficient building operation and more convenience and
services for smart building users.
