Thanks to intelligent energy saving functions, Synco™ heating, ventilation and air conditioning controllers in connection with GAMMA building control lower the energy consumption in hotels – and thus their operating costs. The individual system components offer ease of use, ensure reliable operation and optimize the room climate in hotel rooms, lobbies, restaurants and spa areas. This provides for optimal comfort and the right ambience in any location.

In addition, your investments are protected because Synco HVAC controllers and GAMMA building control components are highly flexible and can easily be adapted to new room configurations, changed occupancy schedules or building extensions.

Intelligent technology for energy-efficient hotels

Well-prepared for any eventualityModern hotels need to satisfy a number of requirements: Perfect comfort, highest security and straightforward operation at minimum cost and maximum energy effi-ciency. With Synco and GAMMA, Siemens offers the right building technology to easily satisfy these complex individual requirements – today and tomorrow.

Fluctuating room occupancy, presence detection using hotel card switches or conference areas with flexible room con-figuration: not a problem. Thanks to the internationally recognized KNX communi-cation standard for home and building control, functions can be extended easily and flexibly without having to run new wires. In addition, electrical, heating, ventilation, air conditioning and media devices from different vendors can com-municate with each other, thus allowing new functions to be added at a later stage.

Intelligent comfort and straightforward operationWhether it is a pleasant room temperature, good air quality or atmospheric lighting, Synco and GAMMA make it easy to create the right ambience at the right time. This allows guests to relax in comfort or to

focus their attention on the seminar they are attending. Another benefit is the straightforward operation of all systems – be it in the hotel room by individual guests or centrally for the entire building by the facility manager.

Green efficiency for your hotelCut your operating costs and attain energy class A with state-of-the-art build-ing technology from Siemens: Synco and GAMMA prevent the waste of energy caused by unnecessary lighting, air con-ditioning and heat losses. This allows you to reduce energy costs, contribute to environmental protection and give the hotel a green image.

Reliable, future-proof products from a single sourceAs a single-source provider of building technology, Siemens offers you a com-prehensive solution – from the production of heating and cooling energy to the distribution of thermal and electrical energy – tailored to the specific needs of hotels. Thanks to its modular concept and open communication, this solution can be modified or extended at any time, ensuring that you will be on the safe side in the future as well.

Siemens brings safety and security

Automatic safety functionsIf there is a fire alarm, electrical consumers are immediately shut down and escape route lighting is switched on. In addition, air dampers are shut and fans are turned off. If smoke occurs, air dampers are opened and fans are turned on to ensure that escape routes are free of smoke and evacuation is easier.

Safe lightingPresence-dependent corridor lighting ensures the right light level at the right time. Outdoor and pathway lighting can be switched depending on brightness, motion or time. Should a power failure occur, safety is guaranteed at any time thanks to emergency lighting.

Safety and security thanks to remote monitoringWeb-based visualization on a PC or con-trol panel displays all important building information, including alarm and status messages such as lamp failures or lamp brightness. The energy indicator monitors defined settings for heating, ventilation and air conditioning, shows limit viola-tions and reports them periodically via e-mail or app. In addition, water detectors sense burst pipes and flooding early on.

This ensures quick response, prevents or reduces damage and guarantees reliable and efficient operation. There is no need to install special alarm devices: When the system is in monitoring mode, an alarm message is triggered every time a lamp is switched on or a window or an exterior door is opened. These messages can then be forwarded via text messaging (SMS) or e-mail.

The right user interface for every type of application: From simple pushbuttons to multifunctional touch panels and central display of all essential building information.

Intelligent control

Typically, basic lighting requires only a subset of the existing lamps. Rotation switching ensures that all lamps are utilized equally by alternating between all lamps for basic lighting. This distributes usage across all lamps, prevents uneven wear and eliminates constant lamp replacements. Since the operating hours of each lamp are recorded, the maintenance staff knows exactly when a specific lamp needs to be replaced.

Highlights

■ Higher security level with no need for extra personnel thanks to automatic security functions

■ Lower risk of accidents thanks to efficient corridor, pathway and escape route lighting

■ Faster intervention through notification via e-mail or text messaging (SMS)
