Acronym Confusion
In the green building industry, we throw around
acronyms frequently. But probably no better
example for acronym confusion exists than with
• Building Automation Systems (BAS) .
• Building Management Systems (BMS).
• Direct Digital Control (DDC) systems.
• Energy Management Systems (EMS).
• Building Automation and Control Systems
(BACS).

Questions Regarding
BMS

Building Management System

Questions Regarding BMS

• What is BMS?
• Why BMS ? or Purpose of BMS?
• How ? Extended System Life and
Energy Efficiency?
• What does the BMS future look like?

Building Management System

What is BMS?
History Of Building Management System
• Pneumatic Controls
• Electro-Mechanical Controls
• DDC Controls (Standalone /
Microprocessor Based)
• Automatic Control System (Dedicated,
Integrated & Intelligent)

Building Management System

What is BMS?
Building management system means a computer-
based control system installed in buildings that
designed to control, monitor and optimize various
building services, including.
• Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning
• Swimming Pool
• Pumps
• Fire Fighting
• Lighting System
• Elevators
• Security CCTV Camera + Access Control
• Water in Use

Building Management System

What is BMS?
A BMS consists 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 are also producing BMSs that integrate
using Internet protocols and open standards such
as BACnet, LonWorks and Modbus.

Building Management System

PURPOSE OF BMS ?

Building Management System

Purpose of BMS?
Primarily to control & maintain HVAC equipment
capacity to maintain desired ambient conditions.
– Building temperature,
– RH %
– pressure,
– energy use,
– control exhausting of indoor contaminants

Building Management System

Purpose of BMS?

– Energy Monitoring
– Data Recording /Logging ,manage equipment
scheduling.
– Reduce the amount of human labor needed.
– Keep processes operating at safe levels.
– Operate process to maintain environment
– using the least amount of energy possible.

HOW IT EXTEND THE SYSTEM LIFE AND MAKE ENERGY
EFFICIENT?

Building Management System

Extended Life and Energy Efficiency?

Basic Control Components

– An Input
– A Processor / Logic System
– An Out Put

Building Management System

Extended Life and Energy Efficiency?

Basic Control Components

– An Input
• Comes From Sensors or Devices Like Temp, Humidity, Pr,
Current, Co2, Etc (Can be Analog /Digital)
– A Processor / Logic System
• Processing The information from input device Compare and
send out put signal, if necessary
– An Out Put
• Actual device being controlled based on the information
from input, out put devices Actuators, Relays, VFD, Air-
Flow Stations.
