What is KNX?
KNX is the only system that complies with the requirements of the European Union (EN50090) and the International Standards (ISO/IEC 14543) for Home Automation. It serves as a quality benchmark for building manufacturers.
KNX is an open, expandable, and therefore user-friendly system.
ΚΝΧ = Open System & Free Product Choices
KNX offers free product selection. Over 320 manufacturers provide a variety of certified and compatible KNX products according to the latest technical standards, giving you complete freedom of choice.
KNX has many applications and controls lighting, heating, blinds, ventilation, as well as multimedia and security technologies. This creates an efficient system capable of meeting any individual need.
Thanks to its networking capability, anyone can perform functions that previously required technical knowledge. Through the bus lines, sensors such as motion detectors and thermostats give instructions to actuators on what to control, for example, lighting, heating, or air conditioning in the home.
The system can also be operated conventionally via buttons or touch and control screens. Remote control via the Internet and operation via mobile phone are also possible with KNX.
ΚΝΧ = Energy Savings
Blinds, awnings, room thermostats, heating valves, window and light sensors can communicate with each other via KNX. Their smart networking reduces energy and heating consumption.
KNX users can draw useful conclusions about energy consumption and its optimization possibilities depending on usage patterns.
With KNX, there is the potential for more detailed options regarding responsible energy use, not just electricity, but also heat, water, and fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas. Many corresponding KNX components are already available on the market.
ΚΝΧ = Security
The smart network for home automation connects motion detectors, glass break detectors, and blind controllers with the alarm system, panic button, and mobile phone. This ensures protection and security day and night.
In the event of smoke detection, the interconnected smoke detector triggers a smoke alarm. Additionally, water and gas leaks are detected and reported early enough to prevent any irreparable damage.
ΚΝΧ = Technology That Adapts to Each Generation's Needs
The KNX system adapts the building automation to needs that will continually change. This increases the long-term value of the property and reduces upgrade costs over time.
Another significant advantage of KNX is that the building automation network can be expanded and rebuilt at any time. For small or large projects, renovations, or new buildings, KNX always has the best customized products and ensures the most efficient solution.
