Building Management System:
Objective:
To centralize the monitoring, operation and management of a
Building or Buildings. This is done to achieve more efficient
Building Operation at reduced labour and energy cost and to
provide a safe and comfortable working environment for
building occupants.
One primary function of a BMS is to collect, store and
process historical data such as energy use and alarm
activity. Another function is to generate report as a tool
for long-term management and use of facility.
Building Management System:
Functions:
Generally BMS contains application software for the following
types of functions;
• System integration
• System Operation
• System security
• System data retrieval
• Data formatting
• Data routing
• Standard reports
• Custom reports
• Custom programming
• Preventive maintenance management
System Level Controller:
System Level Controller are Microprocessor based controller
that provide direct digital control of major pieces of mechanical
equipment such as AHUs, Chillers, Boilers etc.
