SAUTER uses an open system for building automation. This way, the products can be flexibly used and adapted to the individual requirements of the building. SAUTER’s BACnet compatibility enables open, interoperable building automation. All this is guaranteed without sacrificing security.

Building automation from SAUTER networks the existing systems and optimises interaction at maximum energy efficiency. It automatically determines (e.g. via presence detectors and sensors) the actual requirement for heating, cooling, fresh air, lighting and sunshading in the rooms and provides the right quantity of energy at the right time and in the right place. This type of demand-controlled building automation system enables energy-efficient building management, which prevents energy wastage and leads to a noticeable and rewarding reduction in operating costs – and quickly pays for itself.

As buildings become increasingly networked and automated, including via cloud and IoT technologies, security is also becoming an even more important issue. Building automation goes hand in hand with the Internet of Things and the cloud. Entire networks and systems must be secured. SAUTER specialists are happy to provide helpful recommendations on how users and operators can increase the security levels of their networks and systems.

Thanks to state-of-the-art equipment, SAUTER building automation systems are capable of continuous communication. BACnet is used in all equipment systems and in SAUTER room automation – to allow continuous, standardised communication. The same system is always used to ensure compatibility – from the room controller to the air conditioning unit to the visualisation system.

Users can also access the building automation system from anywhere to set their comfort environments to the level that suits them best. For example, Mobile Building Services can access settings such as heating, cooling or sunshading of the building via an app secured by an individual QR code – without the user having to be on site.

Thanks to the modularity of its integrated building automation, SAUTER offers maximum flexibility with numerous adaptation options. Each building has unique requirements and characteristics. The respective building automation solution can thus be individually adapted to the specific requirements of the building. The building’s users and operators benefit from maximum comfort, and yet with minimum energy consumption.
