Much of today's infrastructure such as hospitals, data centers, industrial facilities and commercial and multi residential buildings have antiquated building automation systems that don’t save as much money in energy and operations as is possible and don’t communicate with each other to get the benefits of real time monitoring and information exchange.
Intelligent building automation systems have improved capabilities to manage energy use, provide better comfort and controlled lighting as well as security and emergency response capabilities. IBAS can be used for many different applications some of which include energy management, demand response capabilities, renewable energy and energy storage integration, security, fire and safety applications. The purpose of this course is to learn the rapid technology advances in intelligent building automation systems and how they may be applied to suit various types of custom applications that can improve comfort, productivity, education and contribute to economic and environmental objectives.
The focus of this course is on:
What you will learn:
This course will cover many practical examples and will be interactive for students to gain a broad overall understanding of intelligent building automation systems.
Identify and describe the major components in the BAS for HVAC, Lighting, Security, Fire and Safety
Identify and describe the basic mechanical components in an HVAC automated control system
After completion of this course, the participant will have a better understanding of:
This Intelligent Building Automation course is designed for anyone involved with designing and providing energy management and other building automation systems or working in any facility where there is a building automation system. Students are invited to attend from a wide variety of industries, skill-levels, company sizes, and backgrounds. If you're not sure you'll fit in, or will benefit from this class, don't worry - you will - as long as you have an interest in intelligent building automations systems and the smart applications they provide.
