Introduction

Building/Factory owners are faced with the physical introduction of new control and monitoring technology in both new and existing buildings in sometimes difficult and remote locations. More and more commercial operations are looking to improve their “green” credentials by addressing excessive energy usage. Industrial Plant Monitoring, redefined as Thermostatic controllers and temperature sensors, can be specifically identified in the following applications:
• HVAC control
• Room temperature sensors
• Series receivers
• Network coordinators
• Fan control
• Louvre Motor control
• Pump configuration and control

Wireless Technology offers the solution to the difficulty encountered in the installation of new “wired” systems; ZigBee Technology provides the most user friendly environment in which to provide these new services.
