<strong>KNX</strong> Projects<br />
conventional installations – as<br />
early as the planning phase and<br />
provide solutions for building<br />
control so this potential can<br />
be exploited to the full.<br />
Less products, more<br />
efficient solutions<br />
When suggesting solutions,<br />
the SeeTool has access to a<br />
range of Schneider Electric<br />
<strong>KNX</strong> products but these have<br />
been deliberately kept as few<br />
as possible. Our basic approach<br />
was to attain maximum<br />
efficiency using the minimum<br />
number of components – not<br />
just with a view to energy<br />
consumption but to keeping<br />
down costs for purchasing and<br />
installation too.<br />
Specific results for<br />
specific requirements<br />
Based on your data, the<br />
SeeTool will provide specific<br />
solution proposals – including<br />
the components required and<br />
circuit diagrams. The precise<br />
potential compared to conventional<br />
installation will be<br />
worked out for each solution,<br />
providing concrete values that<br />
you can use to make realistic<br />
plans and calculations.<br />
Demonstrate your<br />
competence<br />
The SeeTool will prepare all<br />
results in a detailed results<br />
report. The solutions, facts<br />
and figures the report provides<br />
you with will enable you to demonstrate<br />
your competence<br />
and expertise. This will allow<br />
you to save energy and costs<br />
for your customers – thereby<br />
making yourself priceless.<br />
Approved<br />
and confirmed<br />
The SeeTool has been evaluated<br />
by an independent<br />
institute, the VTT Technical<br />
Research Centre of Finland,<br />
which confirmed it to be in<br />
line with present methods for<br />
calculating energy use.<br />
Free-to-use<br />
The SeeTool is available freeof-charge<br />
and can be used<br />
conveniently and simply on a<br />
computer.<br />
Using SeeTool<br />
The most important<br />
facts at a glance<br />
You enter your data for the<br />
building and the individual<br />
rooms, choose the solution<br />
you want from those proposed<br />
for control with <strong>KNX</strong> by the<br />
SeeTool and will immediately<br />
receive a results report tailored<br />
to your individual project.<br />
The results report will summarise<br />
your data, giving details on<br />
the chosen solution and a calculation<br />
of possible associated<br />
energy savings compared to a<br />
conventional solution. Besides<br />
the overall savings, it will also<br />
provide potential savings for<br />
individual areas – electricity,<br />
heating, CO 2<br />
emissions using<br />
straightforward, concrete<br />
facts.<br />

DIN EN 15232<br />
Energy efficiency<br />
of buildings<br />
According to this standard, the<br />
potential savings and energy<br />
efficiency of a building are<br />
evaluated depending on the<br />
efficiency of the technology<br />
installed in the building. The<br />
solutions provided by the<br />
SeeTool offer consistently<br />
A-class functionality.<br />
Energy efficiency<br />
made easy<br />
How you profit in your<br />
day-to-day work<br />
The solutions for greater<br />
energy efficiency will not only<br />
enable your customers to save<br />
energy and costs – you yourself<br />
will profit from the ideas and<br />
documentation of the <strong>KNX</strong>applications<br />
specifically too in<br />
your day-to-day work.<br />
