Lighting

The various technologies available in the lighting field have reached a high degree of integration in building automation projects. Gte, using its various technical partnerships, offers a complete range of products allowing every type of solution, from the simple control of a single device to the integration of the entire lighting installation in cutting-edge Building Management System designs. The control systems offered are compatible with standard technologies on the market: HFP/HFR/HFD reactors, DMX addressing protocoll, LonWorks® communication protocoll. The control systems can be subdivided according to their main function: systems whose application is directed exclusively at cost reduction and systems for controlling factors governing environmental comfort. For systems dedicated to automation and energy saving the main factors that contribute to achieving this objective are:

• Availability of integrated systems in equipment for simple projects.
• Reduction of installation costs.
• Regulation of the level of luminosity of devices relative to the presence of persons and to the contribution of natural light, thereby both saving energy and extending the working life of the equipment.
• Reconfiguration of the system software without modifying cabling in the event of changes in the layout of the area being controlled.

The systems dedicated to the improvement of internal or external environmental lighting take into account recent psychological studies: the objective is the creation of the right atmosphere for every situation and every context.
The factors that contribute to achieving this objective are::

• Creation of static and dynamic installations.
• Variation in the colour temperature of the light.
• Variation in light colour using RGB technology.
• Manual and automatic control of the system.

Electrical

The control of a building is inextricably linked with the management and distribution of its electrical energy supply. The monitoring and efficient control of the receiver/trasformer cabins and the primary and secondary distribution makes it possible to interact with the building’s system of protection and control devices. These control devices give a constantly updated image of the system and operate in complete safety. The electrical subsystem is thus an integral part of the entire control system. The interactions that occur at the automation level between a series of application packages make it possible to register and analyse all the electrical and mechanical data, thereby facilitating control and achieving maximum efficiency in the allocation of consumption.

• Transformer cabins
• Power and auxiliary electrical control panels
• Grounding installations
• Lightning conductors
• B.B. and M.T. electrical systems

Security System

 

The need for effective protection against break-ins and, in general, the associated criminal actions as well as protection of persons and property, makes it indispensabile to have an effective security system comprising control devices, entry and exit supervision and detection of presence of persons, anti-trespass systems, CCTV surveillance, smoke detection and fire extinguishing apparatus. The fundamental prerequisite for these systems is the acquisition, processing and issuing of information to give active surveillance and protection for the building. A new approach to the problem of security has evolved with a view to increasing the efficiency with which the system can be run: the centralisation of the alarms in an integrated form that links and coordinates the individual subsystems is effective not because it uses the same hardware and software solutions, but also the same human resources, thereby getting the most out of the investment.
The following systems incorporate this technology:

• Access control and detection of presence
• Anti-trespass
• CCTV surveilllance
• Smoke and gas-leak detection
• Fire extinguishing
