Schneider Electric has announced the SE8000 series room controllers, a solution that provides the advantage of integrating a thermostat/ temperature sensor and programmable room controller in a single unit. The SE8000 series is elegantly designed with a customisable surface that works in a multitude of environments and décors, including offices, retail stores, schools and hotels. The controllers deliver all the comfort and control functionality found in multi-component (DDC) systems, but in a small, easy-to-install package. They can scale across a facility to optimise the energy use of HVAC systems and help reduce operational costs.
Engineered to meet the needs of building owners and facility managers, the SE8000 help reduce installation labour, which enables faster commissioning time, lowers total cost of ownership and delivers a quick return on investment. The new room controllers also allow commercial building owners and occupants to reinforce their brand by displaying any logo, image, or dynamic scheduled message on the screen. Full customisation is achieved by selecting from five screen colours, two casings and 10 textured fascias, to find the perfect combination to complement any décor. The room controllers are equipped with advanced application-specific control technology, alarm monitoring, optional humidity and occupancy controls, multi-language support, a touch screen interface and an optional discreet occupancy sensor.
“With the new SE8000 Series room controllers, we are offering customers cutting-edge design and advanced room control technology in intelligent, easy to install units,” says Frederick Morency, vice president, small building systems at Schneider Electric. “These devices integrate seamlessly into existing HVAC and building management systems to provide fast ROI through energy savings and operational efficiency.”
The room controllers are simple to install and commission, allowing quick deployment with minimal disruption to building occupants, end users, and business operations. They are configured to integrate easily with most building management systems, such as Schneider Electric’s SmartStruxure and SmartStruxure Lite solutions. The controllers offer wired and wireless communication options to network and scale with building management systems, making them a perfect fit for both new construction and retrofit projects.
In addition, application-specific models will be released in the coming months for fan coils, heat pumps, roof top and air handling units that are pre-programmed to maximise efficiency, with the option to easily modify configurations to meet unique environmental needs. Third-party integration is available through open protocols, including BACnet, MS/TP, and wireless ZigBee Pro, enabling organisations to ‘future-proof’ their investment.
