Building Management System

Building Management System, also known as BMS, is a computer-based system which helps in monitoring & controlling of building services like lighting, HVAC, CCTV, lifts, smoke & fire detectors, smart meters, etc. Sometimes BMS is also used to control power distribution & energy consumption.

BMS helps its operating manager to understand & optimize the performance of all the systems installed in the building. BMS also helps in visualizing the data through reports generated and create alarms when the parameter exceeds the limit set.

A list of systems which can be monitored & controlled by BMS is as follows: 

• • Illumination (lighting) control

  • A smart Building Management System can manage illumination in any specific area of a building. Lighting can be turned on or off depending on the program settings of the system.

  • HVAC System. The AC duct temperature, pressure, humidity, and exhaust gas temperature are connected to the BMS, so that whenever it crosses a defined limit, an alarm can be programmed.

  • Hot Water System and Central Heating. Temperature and pump control monitoring is done by the BMS which ensures a proper functioning of hot water distribution through the facility.

  • Chilled Water System. Control of the facility chillers could be supervised by BMS so that proper behavior of the system can be monitored.

  • Sprinkler System (for fire safety).

  • Electrical Monitoring System. The BMS may monitor the consumed electrical power and the state of main electrical switches.

  • Lifts elevators etc. Proper management of lifts can be controlled ny BMS can be programmed to save electricity in case of no use for a longer period.

  • Closed-circuit television(CCTV). Proper record of all the CCTV’s footage at different locations hels to improve the security of any given building.

Main advantages of using BMS in any building are:

• • Possibility of controlling entire system from a single room.

  • Increased staff productivity

  • Effective monitoring and targeting of energy consumption

  • Fast response to HVAC-related complaints

  • Saves time and money during maintenance hours

  • Motion sensors allow automatic switching off machines during unoccupied periods.

  • Lighting controls reduces unnecessary power consumption via motion sensors and schedules.

  • Controllers save water and energy by controlling rainwater harvesting and landscape irrigation
