energy efficiency
Intelligent, energy-saving building automation system reduces emissions harmful substances and reduces operating costs.

Unlike constructive measures, building automation is a less labor-intensive and much cheaper means of improving energy efficiency. The automation system is the brain of the building. It integrates information about all engineering systems. It manages heating and cooling, ventilation and air conditioning, power supply and lighting systems. Therefore, it is the brain of the building that should be endowed with the functions of control over the use of energy resources. These features reduce the building's energy consumption by up to 30%.

Integration into the system of any equipment that, at the request of the customer, requires operational dispatch control and / or management.

Modern large shopping centers, business buildings, as well as homeowners' associations and private estates need constant technical control. Management of ventilation, water supply, power supply cannot be carried out without the help of special computer programs. They automatically control and change the operation of mechanisms, and in case of possible malfunctions and in emergency situations the system gives an alarm. This building management system is called a "dispatching system". We will tell you more about how it is designed and installed in our article.

Dispatching system: principles of operation

Modern control rooms are equipped with engineering systems control computers. They commute with controllers in server rooms and frequency converters on installed engineering equipment. Dispatch and automation systems are designed to facilitate the monitoring of building equipment.

With the help of a computer, the dispatcher at the enterprise, and the owner or in a private house, monitors the change in supply air temperature, pressure drops in pipes and controls other parameters of various equipment.

Remote control

You can remotely control ventilation air handling units. By changing the opening percentage of the refrigerant valve, the supply air temperature can be influenced. The building management system remotely monitors the following facilities:

1. Main switchboard of power supply and input distribution devices.
2. Indoor and outdoor lighting.
3. Gas supply.
4. Supply and exhaust ventilation installations.
5. Air conditioners and fancoils.
6. Water supply and sewerage.
7. Drainage system (drainage pits and storm sewers).
8. Fire alarm and fire suppression air.
9. parking spaces.
10. Building access control.
11. Lift and escalator equipment.

Initial preparation and commissioning

You should think about the installation of the described equipment at the stage. Designing of dispatching systems is carried out by special contractors.

The project must provide for cable channels connecting all equipment for communication with the server. Signals from frequency converters, which are located on installations, pumps, power equipment and other systems, come to the server blocks via cable.

The server room should be placed in a separate, well-ventilated room in order to cool the power supplies and fans installed inside the server racks.

Installation work

Installation of dispatching systems is usually carried out by specially hired contractors. They usually have their finished projects, but can also work on customer projects. Maintenance of the dispatching system at the stage of warranty service is carried out by the contractor who installed this equipment.

After the expiration of the warranty service period, it is possible to control the work by the duty team. Typically, a low voltage engineer is responsible for maintaining the system. Different teams have their own set schedule, and the effectiveness of the work of weak currents with equipment depends on this.

The internal stuffing of the control system

There are several computer programs that control the equipment installed at the facility. Not so long ago, Honeywell and Johnson Controls programs were popular. Now new facilities usually install Siemens, Orion and other less common programs, as well as modified Honeywell and Johnson Controls.

The object dispatching system requires constant monitoring and updating. Usually, all systems are installed with a long warranty period, and later, at the end of the warranty period, the obligations for adjustment and maintenance are performed by the same contractor companies.

For elevator equipment, everything is installed depending on which contractor company performs the installation and Maintenance elevator dispatching systems (Kone-Lift, ThyssenKrupp AG, Otis and others).

How does a fire system work?

Automation is also installed on fire-fighting equipment. It is triggered by smoke and sends an alarm to the control room. The dispatcher on the monitor sees the location of the sensor and reports the incident to the duty shift.

If two smoke detectors are triggered, the immediate evacuation alarm will sound throughout the building. This will turn on the air boost system in the elevator shafts. The elevators will automatically descend to the first floor and open the doors without responding to calls and orders.

How is automation controlled?

The equipment installed in the building contains sensors and instrumentation. They collect information about the state of the equipment and interact with the controllers, which transmit a signal to the automation system and the computer installed in the control room. The operator-dispatcher on the working monitor sees the state of the system and, if necessary, controls the installations.

Ventilation automation regulates set parameters according to the room temperature settings. If these are supply and exhaust units equipped with a heat exchanger, a heat exchanger and a cold circuit, the automation maintains the desired temperature by closing or opening the cold (hot) water valve or increasing the speed of the heat exchanger. The dispatcher observes all these changes on the monitor screen in the control room.

In the cold season, when the outdoor air temperature drops below twenty degrees Celsius, it is possible to transfer the units to manual mode by the dispatcher or on-duty personnel to prevent the heat exchanger from freezing.

By setting the necessary parameters on his control panel (computer), the dispatcher monitors the changes and the process of the installations. Typically, leading engineers, taking care of the normal operation of the equipment, post a schedule and work schedule ventilation units on a special stand or in the dispatcher's operational log. According to him, the dispatching system controls the processes of heat exchange and cold supply.

Security systems

When mentioning dispatch control systems, one should not forget about special dispatch systems for the security structure. They are called for short. It does not commute with the ventilation control system and other engineering equipment and is equipped with a special computer.

The control computer receives signals from all electromagnetic locks, turnstiles and other electronic readers, including the system for controlling the entry and exit of cars from the parking lot. All passes issued to employees and staff have numbers that can be used to determine at what time the employee passed through the turnstile or door equipped with a magnetic lock. All these data, also transmitted by magnetic sensors, are sent to a special dispatching access control computer.

The remote access control system is connected to the fire safety engineering system. In the event of an emergency, it will automatically unlock the doors of all emergency exits.

An important place in the operation of building management systems is taken by the uninterruptible power supply of the server. In the event of a voltage drop, it will store it on the dispatcher console and allow you to turn off the systems without losing data.

Where are building management systems used?

No modern business center can do without building management systems. Even ordinary lighting in buildings is switched on through the dispatch system. In addition, security facilities play an important role in business centers. Hence, access control systems are also being installed. They provide work as well as entry and exit from parking spaces. The same applies to elevator and escalator equipment.

In any building, the installation of dispatching systems facilitates the work of on-duty personnel and saves energy resources, creating comfortable conditions indoors

Automation and dispatching of engineering systems

Once building and literally forgetting about the existence of engineering systems allows automation and dispatching. Without automation, any of the subsystems would carry more more problems than comfort, because it would require constant and careful attention to their work.

Has the desired temperature? Will the water freeze in the heater? Is the tank full? Will the air heater burn out? Is there a water flow? Is the pressure normal? Is there tension? What sensor worked? And this is far from complete list questions answered by the automation and dispatching system.

The complexity and cost of such systems depends on the level of their intelligence and the number of functions performed. However, any automation system must perform basic functions, which, for example, ventilation and air conditioning systems, are the following:

Control and management of the operation of units that are part of the equipment of ventilation and air conditioning systems,
- control valves and dampers,
- Safety assurance: blocking the heater in the absence of air movement, frost protection of the water heater,
- Protection of equipment from overheating, short circuit, incorrect connection,
- Indication of the state of the operating equipment,
- Performance regulation,
- Centralized temperature control in all rooms,
- Implementation of a temporary control algorithm (daily/seasonal/annual) without the intervention of maintenance personnel.

In addition, automation is mandatory for heating systems, is very popular in electric lighting systems, and can also be introduced into the power supply system, security, etc.

Automation and dispatching are numbers 1 and 2 in the list of design principles and arrangements of modern engineering systems. On the one hand, technology strives to ensure that networks work with minimal human involvement - as they say, build, run and forget. On the other hand, the customer sets the task of ensuring the most reliable control of the processes occurring in the network throughout its entire length.

In the event of a change in system parameters and various emergency situations, a signal about this should immediately go to the control center, where automation or a human operator will make an operational decision. So, when the pressure drops in the water supply, the automation should immediately turn off the emergency section. At risk of meltdown heating element- turn off the input voltage or reduce the current.

In addition, commands should be sent as quickly as possible from the control center to change the parameters of individual sections of networks or the entire network in case of a change external conditions. For example, when the air temperature in a heated house decreases, the power of the boiler automatically increases. If the input voltage drops in the external electrical network, stabilizers, uninterruptible power supplies, and, if necessary, an autonomous generator or other backup line come into operation.

Automated management of building engineering systems is carried out on the basis of industrial controllers. The main advantage of controllers is their functionality and uniformity, that is, the same controller can control any engineering system.
Depending on the connection of the required sensors to any engineering system, the engineer selects a controller that is suitable for the number of digital and analog inputs and outputs.

After completing all the work on the selection of controllers, sensors, other necessary elements, laying communication lines, the programmer proceeds to visualize and program processes directly on the computer. Programming and visualization of processes are carried out in the so-called SCADA system, which is represented by various computer programs depending on the manufacturer of the equipment and data interface.

Examples of automation of domestic and industrial systems

The ECOLIFE group of companies has significant experience in designing, installing, commissioning and maintaining engineering systems of any complexity, length and localization. We work with a wide variety of environments:

Water (automation of water supply, heat supply and heating systems);
- air and gas-air mixtures (automation of ventilation and air conditioning systems);
- various industrial fluids and liquid fuels;
- intangible objects - electricity, light, radio waves.

Our engineers and installers perform professional installation and adjustment of auxiliary automated systems - fire extinguishing, security and fire alarms, remote access control, internal and facade lighting.

In all cases, the emphasis is on the maximum autonomy of the systems. For automatic lighting control timers are used that are configured taking into account the calendar duration of day and night, photocells that record the natural illumination of a room or area, motion sensors that are configured to move objects of a given mass and dimensions.

The control of the perimeter or internal volume is carried out by electromagnetic sensors that record the crossing of a conditional border or movement within it.

A fire signal is given by devices that analyze the state of the atmosphere and the ambient temperature. The smoke analyzer, having caught particles or molecules of combustion products in the surrounding space, simultaneously sends a signal to the central control room and activates local means of fighting fire. The automation also reacts in the event of a sharp increase in the temperature of the air or surrounding objects.

As we have already indicated above, automation is needed not only for emergency response in the event of a fire, a flood, or intruders entering an object, but also for resolving quite regular situations associated with a change in the degree of load on the network. For example, in the conditions industrial production working in one or two shifts automation of power supply systems will allow, without human intervention, to increase the power supply of the facility every morning, and to reduce it every evening. Our specialists will quickly and professionally install the necessary equipment that will help optimize energy consumption and reduce current payments to resource supplying organizations.

Building and network management systems

The larger the object on which automated engineering systems are mounted, the more important is the role of their dispatching - that is, remote control and management of engineering systems and notification of all processes occurring in the system. In a large building or structure where pipes, ducts, power cables and SCS have a length of tens and hundreds of kilometers, and the availability of many nodes and sections for technical and design reasons is very difficult, the availability of a workable end-to-end monitoring system comes to the fore.

Dispatching concerns two main parameters - the state of the environments moving through the engineering systems and the state of the engineering systems themselves.

Temperature, pressure, density, viscosity, direction and speed sensors, and chemical analyzers are used to measure the parameters of the network content. System state sensors react to the appearance of cracks, ruptures, corrosion, mechanical damage to valves and connecting elements, blockages, deposits of salts or oxides on pipe walls and other negative changes that can affect the efficient operation of the engineering structure and jeopardize the safety of the facility. In the case of power supply systems, measuring equipment records the current voltage and current strength, an abnormal increase in resistance in certain sections of the network, which leads to increased power consumption and overheating of cables, which in turn can cause a short circuit or fire. If we are talking about production with several sites that consume a large number of industrial current, then competent dispatching of the system will allow rational distribution of loads, thus saving electricity and preventing excessive load on one line in comparison with others.

Automation of ventilation and air conditioning systems

Ventilation in modern buildings is represented by a system supply and exhaust ventilation with heat recovery in winter period. This system provides for the installation of a number of sensors: a temperature sensor of the incoming outdoor air, a temperature sensor of the air leaving the atmosphere, a temperature sensor of the air heater discharge pipe, a temperature sensor of the outgoing air stream from the building, a room temperature sensor, a pressure and air velocity sensor in the air duct. It is also necessary to control the mode of operation of the supply (supply) and exhaust fans, the state of the heat exchanger, clogging of air duct filters and other parameters. For control and operational regulation of all these parameters of the system, automated control systems based on industrial controllers are used.

Commercial buildings (shops, entertainment centers, restaurants, airport, etc.) there is a need for centralized management split systems or a set of systems with a chiller-fan coil. Management can be carried out on the basis of an industrial controller with a supervisory control system.

dispatching and automation of ventilation and air conditioning systems in a large office center will also save the cost of operating systems by taking into account such factors as temperature and humidity in the room and outside the window, the number of people working in the premises, and the insolation of the building. A modern automatic climate control program can save up to 50% of electricity compared to a typical situation when all air conditioners in a building turn on at full capacity in summer. In addition to financial benefits, climate optimization will help avoid personnel losses - after all, it is well known that the uncontrolled operation of air conditioners and climate systems- the main cause of colds in the summer.

Our engineers will perform necessary calculations ventilation and air conditioning systems, will carry out the installation of automation equipment and, together with the company's programmers, will set up the system in the shortest possible time.

Automation of alarm systems

Competent alarm system dispatching- a guarantee of the safety of any object. Professionals of the ECOLIFE group of companies are ready to perform work on complex installation security systems of any level of complexity. We work with perimeter alarms, protection of the internal space of open areas and enclosed spaces, protection of specific objects intended for the storage of inventory items or playing another important role (safes, vaults, pantries, archives, armory rooms, command and communication centers, etc.).

Reliable scheduling is the most important when installing perimeter security systems, which can be tens of kilometers long. More than ten types of alarm systems have been invented in the world, but they all operate according to the same principle: as a result of an attempt to penetrate the perimeter (or even when approaching a conditional line), a certain electrical circuit, as a result of which an alarm signal is sent to the control room. In modern security systems penetration can also cause other forms of reaction - the inclusion of emergency lighting, video recording and photo recording systems, warning sirens, blocking exits, etc. Turning to the specialists of the ECOLIFE Group for help, you can make your facility practically invulnerable to all forms of ill-wishers and intruders.

Automation of heating and heat supply systems. Boiler room dispatching

Our interests extend not only to large industrial facilities that provide large volumes of design, installation, commissioning and service work. With the same responsibility, we are ready to perform automation and dispatching of engineering systems at low-rise construction sites.

Many owners of cottages and dachas strive to equip their homes with the latest technology, without initially thinking about the cost of operating systems. Meanwhile, our experience shows that the correct placement and configuration of networks will make their operation not only convenient, but also cost-effective.

In a small country house it concerns first of all dispatching of a boiler house and a heat substation, which will allow you to effectively spend natural gas or other fuels and maintain an optimal energy balance at home using an autonomous heating system.

Ecolife Group specializes in the automation of all types of heating of residential buildings and other premises.
Temperature sensors are used to automate the process of space heating. At the request of the client, a choice of temperature control method is made, taking into account the optimality criterion. To set the necessary parameters of the system operation, control panels are used, which, together with sensors and servo drives, are connected to the controller.

Heat optimization in residential buildings- trend in developed countries for a decade and a half now. Gradually, he begins to gain popularity in Russia, although our climatic conditions is objectively more difficult than in Europe, where the philosophy of internal energy efficiency was originally born. It is curious that in English such a house is called a passive house.

In Russia, with its sharply continental climate, it is hardly possible to do without heating and build a completely “passive house”. But by setting up a competent accounting of heat consumption, using effective insulating materials and controlled heating systems, you can minimize fuel consumption, and therefore material costs and harm to the environment.

Boiler room dispatching with the help of specialists of the ECOLIFE Group of Companies - the most important part of the device for autonomous heat supply at home. Often, boilers are installed directly in basements and plinths, however, from the point of view of fire safety and environmental protection, it is better to do this in a separate building. Heat loss during supply hot water from the boiler room to the house with the installation of high-quality insulation are insignificant.

Having adjusted remote control during the work of the boiler house, the owner of the house can directly control the fuel consumption, steam pressure in the heat exchanger, the temperature of the water in the circuits, the percentage of combustion of the mixture and other parameters directly from the office. Information comes both from a variety of sensors and visually, using video cameras. Broadcasting of telemetry information can go by wire and wireless communication channels (bluetooth, Wi-Fi, radio). Dispatching can also be organized at remote sites, controlling, for example, the operation of the boiler house of a country house from a city apartment, office, or simply from mobile phone being on the other end the globe. Modern mobile and information technologies provide unlimited opportunities for organizing both control room at the facility, and a virtual control room on the World Wide Web.

For more than 20 years, CROC has been involved in the automation and dispatching of building engineering systems. The accumulated experience allows us to implement automated systems of any level both in office and industrial buildings, as well as in shopping centers, data centers and sports facilities.

Local automation

No matter how reliable and intelligent the system is, any engineering solutions need local automation, because it is it that ensures the independent operation of the equipment and its protection if necessary. This is a kind of "hand brake" that prevents breakdowns in emergency situations and allows specialists to adjust the operation of the equipment in manual mode. For local management of engineering systems, CROC specialists can offer both ready-made control cabinets and solutions assembled individually for the project, which can be integrated into common system dispatching.

Room or office automation is a solution that allows you to maintain the temperature, air exchange, lighting and microclimate in general at the proper level, while maintaining a balance of energy efficiency. The controllers underlying such systems compare data from various sensors and, based on this, implement automatic scenarios embedded in them. Depending on the composition of the systems, such scenarios can control both the switching on of lamps in the presence of a person, and the change in the volume of air supplied to the room depending on the level of CO2. In conjunction with the dispatching system, room automation can be controlled centrally and remotely, but users themselves can always set the desired parameters manually.

Building management systems

Automated systems for operational dispatch control (ASODS) are indispensable for large facilities, where it is important to have accurate data on the state of each component of the engineering infrastructure. Their goal is to read data from each local automation device and provide it to the specialists of the facility operation service in an informative and visual form.

ASODU includes a data transmission network, computing resources, a set of information display tools, interface converters, specialized software, as well as protocols through which information is exchanged between controllers, actuators and sensors. As a result, the operator receives a complete picture of the state of the engineering systems on the screen of the control panel.

Energy management system

At large facilities, the issue of resource consumption is always quite acute, since it is directly related to the volume of operating costs. The introduction of energy management systems (EMS) solves the issue of collecting and visualizing information from all gas, water, electricity and heat meters installed at the facility. This significantly simplifies settlements with tenants and allows timely optimization of resource consumption.

Data Center Infrastructure Management System

It is no secret that in data centers it is important to maintain certain parameters of temperature and humidity. But it is also extremely important how much electricity goes into the entire data center system and its individual elements, because based on this data, it turns out what the current energy efficiency ratio is.

In addition to the issues of ensuring the conditions for the correct operation of server hardware, questions often arise related to the racks themselves: for example, where are the free computing resources and what should be done to scale the infrastructure in the future? Data Center Infrastructure Management systems make it possible to virtualize information about all physical and information assets of data centers, and CROC specialists have vast experience in designing and implementing them.

Monitoring systems for engineering systems and structures

There are facilities that need special control not only from the facility operation service, but also from the unified duty and dispatch service of the city or district. These can be nuclear and hydroelectric power plants, stadiums, large hotels, concert venues and other crowded facilities. It is for such places that SMIS / SMIK are intended. These systems collect and transmit data on the state of the engineering infrastructure and the load on the structures to the EDDS, so in the event of a threat of emergency or a terrorist attack, measures will be taken immediately.

Operational process management system

The operation process management system (Computer-aided facility management (CAFM) is the management of material resources and processes inside buildings and structures that are not related to the main activity at these facilities. The system automates the main information processes in the operation of the operation service, which reduces the consumption of energy resources and reduce the cost of maintaining the building, optimize the use of equipment, effectively manage the personnel of operational services, and promptly prevent emergency and emergency situations.

I heard the call of dear and respected Volzhanin yesterday. But I have preparation No. 4 of the Algorithm for printing. Here, as always, everything is on the ears. On the 10th of September, everything should be in the printing house, but here who is where, summer.
Now in order.
My colleague, dear Volzhanin, is right as always. When it comes to dispatching, this is one thing. If we are talking about fire monitoring, this is completely different. Do not confuse one with the other and resent his behavior. He is here as a classic of the genre. He won't take someone else's, but he won't give his own either.
Now, within the framework of fire monitoring, it is necessary to distinguish between objects of the category F1.1, F1.2. F4.1 and F4.2. from all others. This is dogma.
For these facilities, according to Federal Law No. 123, there is a unified fire monitoring system with duplication (I emphasize - with duplication, because these facilities must have a round-the-clock security post) of signals through Sagittarius-Monitoring on the TsUS-01, i.e. in DDS MES.
According to SP5.13130, objects that do not have round-the-clock security posts go there, i.e. in DDS MES.
Allowed by 13.14.5.
"Reception and control devices and control devices, as a rule, should be installed in a room with round-the-clock stay of personnel on duty. In justified cases, it is allowed to install these devices in rooms without personnel on round-the-clock duty, while ensuring separate transmission of notifications about a fire, malfunction, state of technical means in a room with personnel on duty around the clock, and ensuring control of channels for transmitting notifications. In this case, the room where the devices are installed must be equipped with security and fire alarms and protected from unauthorized access. "

But this immediately contradicts 14.4.
"In a room with a round-the-clock stay of on-duty personnel, notices should be displayed about a malfunction of monitoring and control devices installed outside this room, as well as communication lines, control and management of technical means of alerting people in case of fire and evacuation control, smoke protection, automatic fire extinguishing and other fire protection installations and devices.
The project documentation must define the recipient of the fire notice to ensure that the tasks in accordance with Section 17 are completed.
At objects of functional hazard class F 1.1 and F 4.1, fire notices should be transmitted to fire departments according to the allocated in in due course radio channel or other communication lines in automatic mode without the participation of the personnel of the facilities and any organizations broadcasting these signals. It is recommended to use technical means with resistance to electromagnetic interference not lower than the 3rd degree of rigidity in accordance with GOST R 53325-2009.
In the absence of personnel on duty at the facility, fire notices should be transmitted to the fire departments via a radio channel allocated in the established order or other communication lines in automatic mode.
At other facilities, if technically possible, it is recommended to duplicate automatic fire alarm signals about a fire to fire departments via a radio channel allocated in the established order or other communication lines in automatic mode.
At the same time, measures should be taken to improve the reliability of the fire notification, for example, the transmission of notifications "Attention", "Fire", etc.

Now according to clause 13.14.5.
What kind of technical means can be used for this. Here, after all, control is required, and permanent, of this very channel for transmitting notifications. And what are these technical means.
Let's go to st. 46 FZ No. 123. There we find for this SPIP - fire notification transmission systems.
Where are the requirements. Section 9 GOST 53325-2012.
Are the STIs applied by the PSC consistent with it. Of course not. Since there are used SPIs of a completely different class and with different requirements.
Now a question of other plan.
Three scammers came from the object to the control panel of this CHOO. We went to the first two, but did not call the third. People died, great material damage. Who is to blame for the late delivery of the notice.
In this regard, there is a law on private detective and security activities. It states that PSCs can perform the following functions: installation burglar alarm, organization of access control at enterprises and protection of objects with the help of technical means. There is no question of any fire-fighting functions there and cannot be. In this case, according to the law, no one has any rights against the PSC in case of fire, even if fire alarm. Who made an unlawful decision to grant the rights to a private security organization for the fire protection of an object. Object management. Well, we will put him in jail for 15 years.
But what you do in this situation, you choose. There are laws arbitrage practice, but there is a desire of the customer. The desire of the customer does not always coincide with the capabilities or views of the contractor.
There is no need to have illusions about the draft of a new edition of SP5. For many reasons, it was returned for revision. And the mentioned version regarding fire monitoring is one of them.
Imagine that suddenly they were allowed to transmit a fire signal to absolutely any organization, as long as there was a round-the-clock duty officer and any technical means.
From city A, from the children's rehabilitation center, a fire signal automatically goes to city B via the GSM channel. And not just anywhere, but to Uncle Petya's garage. And from there, in full drunkenness, this uncle Petya must call the long-distance city to city A in order to transmit a signal about a fire. But Uncle Petya did not have money on the phone to make long-distance calls. What do you think about it. But the rule-makers from VNIIPO see no problems here. That's why they were pushed back.
And in terms of choosing a communication channel, there are also a lot of problems.
In general, I give you links to my materials on the organization of fire monitoring:

Read it, figure it out.
But then you can rummage here on this forum regarding the legal force of relations with the PSC. I've written a lot of things in my time with excerpts from our legislation. Not everything here is as simple as it seemed and wanted, but very interesting and informative. This is exactly what our esteemed Volzhanin mentioned here.
In short, this is your first breath. When you understand this, you can continue to delve into this problem.
