International standard
Great developments in the field of home and building automation were made
possible thanks to an open, modular and interoperable standard like KNX.
SCALABILITY
The scalability, typical of Ekinex® building control systems, allows to start off with a basic equipment, both in terms of functions
and devices, which may be extended at a later stage, depending on individual requirements, the location’s infill and the economic
availability. The investment is quickly paid back and is protected in time. Thanks to the native openness and interoperability of the
KNX standard, the system can even integrate functions that may not be available within the Ekinex® range of products.
EASY INSTALLATION
Unlike traditional installation, in a home automation system only actuators and output devices need to be connected to the 230 VAC
power supply. Sensors, switches, controls, displays and other input devices work with the only connection to the bus network that is
powered by SELV voltage. This results in a considerable simplification of the installation that is particularly convenient.
KNX CERTIFICATION
The KNX certification guarantees the interoperability among the devices of different KNX manufacturers. The entire procedure is
disciplined by the certification system developed by the KNX Association and is based on conformity tests carried out by third-party
laboratories. The presence of a KNX trademark on Ekinex® devices is a guarantee for the customer:
• Manufacturing firm respects the quality management system in accordance with ISO 9001;
• The devices are compliant with the European norm EN 50090-2-2, concerning fundamental aspects like electromagnetic
compatibility, electrical safety and environmental conditions of use;
• They comply with KNX interoperability requirements concerning standardized data type and functional blocks.
