EnOcean - the Energy Harvesting Wireless Standard for Building Automation
Energy-efficiency & Flexibility "Enabled by EnOcean"
- Energy harvesting wireless switches [1] control lighting and shading.
- Energy harvesting wireless occupancy sensor [2] adjusts temperature and turns off lights when a room is not in use.
- Energy harvesting wireless room temperature sensor [3] for minimal energy consumption and maximum comfort.
- Energy harvesting wireless climatic sensors [4] - humidity and CO2 - monitor indoor air quality.
- Energy harvesting wireless position sensors [5] [6] – window contact and window handle – cut out heating and air-conditioning when windows are open.
- Central control [7] on a touch panel or PC/notebook.
