Daikin enables its products to integrate into a BMS

Daikin’s RTD range of controls enable its entire product portfolio to be integrated into building-management systems by using the Modbus protocol. Designed for a wide range of applications, including hotels or offices, the RTD’s pre-programmed functions ensure systems operate efficiently while maintaining high levels of comfort. There is also a controller for Altherma heat pumps.

RTF-HO for hotels enables their air-conditioning systems to be interlocked with keycards and window contacts to change the operating mode or switch them off.

In retail environments, offices can be set differently from the shop floor. Energy efficiency can be improved by integrating ventilation units, door curtains and indoor units, and pre- and post-trade modes.
