Features and Benefits of Using Building Energy Management Systems

Optimum Start
The time that the plant starts is varied so that the required temperature is provided at the start of occupancy, avoiding unnecessary use of energy.

Optimum Stop
This allows the plant to be stopped prior to the end of occupancy without the occupants noticing any deterioration in conditions, saving energy.

Compensated Circuits
During occupancy, the temperature of the heating medium can be altered to match the outdoor ambient conditions. For example, if it is cold outside the heating medium will be warmer, improving comfort conditions.

Rotation and Sequencing
Multiple items of plant such as boilers or chillers can have their enabling signals sequenced and/or rotated. The load will be satisfied with equal run time operation for all of the plant.

Energy Monitoring
Utility meters can be monitored to provide information graphically on the energy usage. Monitoring and targeting of energy usage allows the operator to see where and when the energy is being used, optimise available resources and save energy and running costs.

Ease of Use
 Prompts are provided to allow the user quick and easy access to system information such as temperatures and plant status. Dedicated push buttons are provided for altering operating parameters such as extensions or overrides.

Data Logs
Information such as temperature, humidity, pressure, energy consumption can be stored at user defined intervals and retained for future use. This allows the user to analyse past performance and fine tune building control programmes.

Alarm Logs
Any alarm generated by equipment or out of limit temperatures can be viewed locally at the controller or remotely at a PC. The logs can also be used to monitor automatic overrides and user facilities.

‘Advance’ Building Energy Management System

Ambiflex controllers are specifically designed and manufactured as high quality, flexible and reliable systems providing the very latest in energy management and control innovation. The Ambiflex MF620/820 range of controllers combine competitive pricing with ease of use for non-technical personnel, ensuring that even the more modest buildings can now benefit from the advantages of a Building Energy Management System.

The Benefits

- Increased energy savings
- Easy to use for non-technical personnel
- Improved comfort conditions for staff
- Reduced ‘greenhouse’ emissions
- Energy management information including energy and data logs
- Increased capital plant life through improved plant efficiency

Typical Applications

- Primary schools, secondary schools and colleges
- Office and commercial buildings
- Nursing homes and sheltered housing schemes
- Industrial units and factories
- High street and out of town retail outlets
- Licenced retail premises and night clubs

Advance Building Control

The MF620 is an intelligent standalone/networking BEMS controller with features normally available only in much more expensive systems. The MF620 has the flexibility of a freely programmable controller and is also available with a comprehensive range of pre-engineered applications for conventional heating systems.

On larger sites where networking and data sharing is required, up to thirty two MF620 and MF820 controllers can be connected together.

Engineering

The Ambiflex software and hardware systems can be supplied and commissioned by one of a number of local system integrators. They will use software tools to provide low cost solutions.

Training

Ambiflex regularly hold training courses which are ‘tailor made’ to our Customers requirements. These may be carried out at our offices, or sometimes on site if required.

These courses cover everything from basic user information such as adjusting setpoints and reviewing or amending timeschedules to more advanced courses covering programming our controllers for new installations.

Support

Amongst the post contract support features offered by Ambiflex and its network of system integrators are service and maintenance. This will ensure that your HVAC control system is operating to the correct parameters at all times.
