Work isn’t 9 to 5 for anyone these days. Commercial buildings need to be as flexible as the companies that occupy them, and that means you need building systems that are equally responsive. Delta Controls can ensure that you are in control. You can enable locally controlled office comfort, while having eco-energy algorithms built in, which by the way isn’t just “Earthright” but will also save you money.

In a tough economic climate, owners and building managers need systems that are cost effective to install. The open-protocol nature of our products gives investors the freedom of choice to mix and match different manufacturers’ products with the Delta Controls commercial building automation system. Building management systems also need to be simple to manage. Our uncomplicated software makes it easy to monitor and control buildings from a single work seat, multiple seats on a network, or remotely via the internet, with customizable floor plans and reports, and easy-to-understand graphics.

In commercial buildings, occupants also need to be kept informed and feel part of their environment. Customized touch screens allow occupants to control their local environment. And we even have Earthright dashboards to display building energy savings and performance in public areas to encourage environmentally responsible behaviors. When tenants have new demands, having the most inter-operable BACnet™ platform in the industry means freedom to choose the right future solution, whatever that might be.

Find out more about our commercial building automation system to some of the problems you face, such as:

• Reducing the cost and complexity of managing multi-tenant buildings through individual energy metering and management, and smarter maintenance management.
• Making it easier to reconfigure commercial spaces (including data server racks) with wireless controllers.
• Meeting individual occupant needs including occupant comfort and temperature overrides to accommodate irregular work schedules.

Managing a school or university isn’t child’s play. Budgets are spread thin, so you need to manage costs aggressively across multiple buildings. Those buildings also have specific issues, including older systems to upgrade in a school district rolling plan, or you have a mix of environments from computer centers and laboratories to lecture theaters and classrooms with particular heating and ventilation requirements. Plus, of course, you have responsibility for hundreds of students, keeping them safe and comfortable so they can achieve their learning potential. Delta Controls can help you make the grade in all these subjects.

Delta’s Earthright energy dashboard is used in schools to clearly demonstrate how building automation controls contribute to reducing carbon emissions, which helps encourage environmentally responsible behaviors.

To find out more about our solutions to some of the problems you face, read on, and follow the links.

• Are you managing multiple sites with high variable occupancy, such as school districts or university campuses? Our controllers can pre-program event scheduling, which saves labor and costs.
• Universities need to be able to take charge of their own building automation system including customized solutions that only fully flexible programmable controllers can provide. Campus environments benefit from site-wide integration of lighting with HVAC and access, which reduces both installation and life cycle costs. Plus our Power over Ethernet (POE) solutions integrate the IT infrastructure meaning that as IT technology evolves your system is future proofed, keeping up-to-date with an evolving building stock.
• In schools we know you need to balance controls for teachers (who want lots of fresh air ventilation) with cost management. Our CO2 monitoring and control strategies make your spaces healthy and efficient, balancing controls of ventilation, windows and local classroom interfaces. We also have a range of energy management tools that can help you get those students engaged in saving you money!

We manufacture our own building automation products at our Canadian Headquarters, so we know exactly the issues you face managing costs precisely, controlling shift patterns, ensuring safety of staff during the manufacturing process; and making sure the finished product stays in top quality condition in the warehouse. Above all, we understand the importance of keeping the manufacturing line running and producing product.

We’ve made sure that our heating, lighting and security systems integrate to optimize our manufacturing site. Our access systems can register employees shifts, our lighting and heating responds to occupancy levels and we care for our high-tech equipment by closely monitoring and adjusting humidity and temperature levels. We can even use our Historian product to demonstrate the consistent environment our product is stored in before shipping – which you can use to demonstrate equal quality controls to your customers.

To find out more about our solutions to some of the problems you face:

• Pharmaceutical and life sciences need scientifically accurate controls to ensure the continuous temperature of specimen refrigeration, safe fume hood ventilation and other space pressurization and ventilation issues (even deep underground!).
• Logistics management isn’t just trucks and software, as you know, it is also about calibration of meters for exact and constant temperature and humidity warehousing environments and access controls ensuring the gates open only when they should, ensuring smooth supply and dispatch.
• Food Production – who know ripening fruit was complex? Our sensors and controllers have regulated humidity, temperature and gas environments precisely, and historian can help you prove it – just as those supermarket customers demand.
