What is BMS?
A BMS or Building Management System, otherwise known as a building automation system (BAS), is a computer-based control system installed in buildings that controls and monitors the building’s mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems.
Why are we different?
Everyone has a black box of tricks; it is our service that sets us apart. We want you to keep coming back because you want to not because you have to.
We are accessible, affordable and will always respond quickly to your requirements and solve them. We won’t leave you waiting for a solution.
We are the exclusive Tier 1 BMS systems integrator for KMC Controls for South Australia.
What does a BMS do?
The most common primary function of the BMS is the control of a building’s Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Systems (HVAC) including:
• Air Handling Units
• Chilled Water Plant
• Cooling Towers
• Tenant Condenser Water
• Heating Water Plant
• Exhaust Systems
• Zone Controls
• Computer Room AC
The day to day role of the BMS is:
• Control of Building Systems and Services
• Graphic User Interface (GUI)
• Real Time Monitoring of Building Operation and Performance
• Trending and Logging of Building Operation and Performance
• Time Scheduling of Building Systems
• Fault Management and Alarming
• Control Application Programming
• User Event Management
• Energy Management and Reporting (NABERS)
Building control applications include the following:
• Zone temperature monitoring and control
• Zone Variable Air Volume (VAV) control to zones
• Zone CO2 monitoring and control (Air Quality)
• Air handling unit supply air temperature control
• Air handling unit supply air flow/pressure control
• Main Plant Chiller and Boiler sequencing
• Toilet, car park, kitchen and general exhaust fan control
• After Hours Building Control
Measuring and monitoring a building’s performance:
• Operator Interfaces including Graphical User Interface (GUI) for
monitoring and adjustments
• Trend data is important when determining the stability of control
algorithms and when tuning the system
• Reports are pivotal when demonstrating building performance against
sustainability targets such as NABERS
• Equipment alarm and fault notification reduces downtime and
consequential impact
