A Comprehensive Look at BAS Enhanced Security and Safety

Building Automation Systems (BAS) have become a cornerstone of modern building management. Beyond their well-known energy-saving capabilities, BAS offer a range of security and safety benefits that contribute to a more secure and controlled environment for occupants. This article delves into the...

HVAC Systems

Protecting HVAC Systems within a Building Automation Network

In modern buildings, the HVAC system is rarely an isolated entity. Building automation systems (BAS) integrate HVAC components with an array of sensors, controllers, and a central management platform — all connected through networks. This interconnectivity provides significant benefits in...

Smart Lighting for Energy Efficiency

How to save energy and receive a quick payback BY DAWN MORRISON, Graybar Canada It seems like everything is increasing in price these days, especially when it comes to energy. Electricity often has a very large impact on the bottom line, particularly when it comes to industrial facilities and...

Building a Breath of Fresh Air: BAS and Indoor Air Quality

Modern buildings prioritize energy efficiency and aesthetics, but sometimes at the expense of indoor air quality (IAQ). Poor IAQ can lead to respiratory problems, allergies, and decreased occupant comfort and productivity. Fortunately, Building Automation Systems (BAS) offer a powerful solution, enabling intelligent control and monitoring of building systems to maintain healthy IAQ levels. This article explores how BAS contribute to improved IAQ, examining the benefits, technical considerations, and potential limitations of this approach.
