Building Management System (BMS): Let the living area be SMART

Our Experts at Takin Engineering would design the most suitable, high-tech, and user-friendly control system tailored for your application, be it an apartment, a villa, a huge mall, or a complex, including all residential, commercial, hoteling, and traffic concerns. Generally, Building Management System (BMS) or Building Automation System (BAS) or Building Energy Management System (BEMS) is a computer-based control system installed in the buildings or on a remote server to control and monitor the building’s mechanical and electrical equipment, including ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, security systems, irrigation systems, septics, trash shooting systems, parking and traffic controls, lifts, water purifications, insect repellents, barbeques, pools and jacuzzies, emergency evacuation systems, noise controls, kids’ playgrounds, etc. They consist of software and hardware; the software program, usually configured in a hierarchical manner, can be proprietary, using such protocols as C-Bus, Profibus, and so on. Vendors also produce a BMS that integrates Internet protocols and open standards such as DeviceNet, SOAP, XML, BACnet, LonWorks, Modbus, or KNX. A BEMS may focus on a building’s energy use and performance, or occupant choice, rather than a broader range of building functions. Major modules include:

1. HVAC System. The duct temperature, pressure, humidity, and exhaust temperature are connected to the BMS, and if their value exceeds defined limits, an alarm is generated.

2. Central Fume Collection, Laminar Flow Units, Dust Collection System, Central Vacuum System, Heat blowers. The BMS monitors the performance of these systems, allowing for early identification of units requiring maintenance. A sudden breakdown would signal via alarms, and then appropriate action can be taken to protect the product.

3. Technical Steam System. Should, for instance, the pressure or temperature in the piping system falls below the defined regulatory values for clean steam, the BMS shall trigger an alarm, indicating a threat to product quality.

4. Hot Water System and Central Heating. Temperature and pump control monitoring via the BMS allows for adequately functioning hot water distribution through the facility.

5. Chilled Water System. BMS could supervise the control of the facility chillers to monitor the proper behavior of the system in terms of water/coolant temperature control or pump control to assure proper distribution within the distribution loop.

6. Sprinkler System (for fire safety).

7. Electrical Monitoring System. The BMS may monitor the consumed electrical power and the state of main electrical switches.
