Building - 2.6 Classification Energy Source All Building Automation System (BAS) Electricity Technology Classification Practical Use Electricity 2001 Building Automation Systems (BAS) optimize the start-up and performance of the heating, Outline ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment and alarm systems. BAS greatly increases the interaction of mechanical subsystems within a building, improve occupant comfort, lower energy use and allow off-site building control Concept/ Fuction/ Speciality BAS use computer-based monitoring to coordinate, organize and optimize building control sub-systems such as security, fire/life safety, elevators, etc. Common applications include : 1. Equipment scheduling (turning equipment off and on as required) 2. Optimum start/stop (turning heating and cooling equipment on in advance to ensure the building is at the required temperature during occupancy) 3. Operator adjustment (accessing operator set-points that tune system to changing conditions) 4. Monitoring (logging of temperature, energy use, equipment start times, operator logon, etc) 5. Alarm reporting (notifying the operator of failed equipment, out of limit temperature/pressure conditions or need for maintenance BAS include a collection of sensors that determine the condition or status of parameters to be controlled, such as temperature, relative humidity, and pressure. Similarly, output devices impart electronic signals or physical action to the control devices. Examples include electric relays or damper and valve actuators. The sensors and output devices are connected either to a unitary controller or to a distributed processor. Unitary controllers are limited to the needs of an intended function and have limited capabilities, such as memory size. Distributed processors can accommodate the needs of several unitary controllers as well as connect directly to input and output devices
