When it comes to industrial transmitters Honeywell Industrial has always been a leader in providing innovative flow and control solutions. Read More
Wireless technology has advanced so much in the last few years and the acceptance and value of these controls is gaining immeasurably. All phases of the market have now been touched by wireless thermostats, controllers, and sensors including industrial, commercial and domestic applications.
In an earlier post I talked about energy dashboards and how critical they are to understanding energy usage. As a teacher of mine once said “nothing is obvious to the uninformed” and this takes on a whole new meaning when it comes to understanding energy data. Getting the right visual representation of huge amounts of data is the key to making sense of these numbers. Although we offer several energy dashboard solutions ProphetSuite is by far the most flexible and elegant. In part one of a two part tutorial see just how easy it is to set up a ProphetSuite energy dashboard.
When it comes to Thermal Imaging Cameras for the commercial buildings market there are several things to take into consideration. First , how and where will your thermal imaging camera be used?

Testo offers a range of thermal imaging cameras specifically for commercial building applications. When buying a camera for building applications you should expect to spend Read More
There is and old adage “If you can’t measure it you can’t control it.” This has become particularly true when it comes to taking energy management to the next level in commercial buildings. Although energy saving controls and solutions have been around since the 70′s, Government mandates such as EPACT 2005 and EISA 2007 are requiring a whole new level of measurement and verification, which requires sub-metering. If you are sub-metering then you are going to need a way to process and understand all this additional information, which is why you need to consider an Energy Dashboard like the one Stromquist & Company provides from ProphetSuite
As you can see ProphetSuite is way cool!! If you have a building automation system, you are already able to gather a lot of this information, so why would you invest in another software package? Read More
AIC Wireless has developed wireless products for HVAC building automation control and monitoring applications.
