AEL-KNX KNX Automation Installations in Buildings Application

The KNX Automation Installations in Buildings Application, "AEL-KNX", provides students, teachers and automation professionals with a unique opportunity to enter the world of KNX building automation project development, interconnection of KNX devices and programming with the ETS software tool. From basic electrical connections to advanced programming, users trained with this unit will gain crucial practical and theoretical skills for project design and maintenance of automation systems.

The relevance of KNX in building automation is undeniable. For this reason, using the AEL-KNX unit, it will be possible to carry out from the precise control of lighting, air conditioning, security, shutter control, etc. to the complete management of buildings through a Building Management System (BMS).

The "AEL-KNX" unit consists of multiple KNX modules strategically grouped to study the different solutions that are applied in real automation installations. For this reason, various configurations are recommended based on technical and educational requirements.

• AEL-KNX-LIC. KNX Lighting Control Training Application. Study of programming and lighting control, management of communication gateways for DALI lighting control.
• AEL-KNX-HVAC. KNX for HVAC Control Training Application. Study of the programming and efficient management of HVAC systems. The importance of the correct parameterization of various air conditioning controllers.
• AEL-KNX-BC. KNX Blind Control Training Application. Implementation of strategies to optimize the use of natural light, scene programming, etc.
• AEL-KNX-SFC. KNX Security Control Training Application: Fire, Anti-intrusion, Floods, etc. Practices involving the use of detectors to ensure building security. Anti-intruder alarms, fire alarms, flood alarms, etc.
• AEL-KNX-BMS. Building Control Training Application via BMS. Allows the exploration of how KNX contributes to integrated building management. This set of devices are essential in large systems where visualization and management of system variables is essential.

Note: this application requires at least one of the other "AEL-KNX" applications.

The "AEL-KNX" application includes a manual that serves as a learning guide for a correct installation of the KNX devices. In addition, it explains step by step how to wire the devices and how to program them according to their task. All KNX programming exercises are based on the standard ETS programming software.

This training unit offers a complete immersion into the world of KNX, preparing students, engineers and industry professionals for practical challenges in the field of building automation.
