Ekinex solves the KNX integration of air conditioning with certified protocols.
Ekinex's VRF KNX control interface is a device that provides two-way communication with Inverter/VRF units through protocols developed and validated in collaboration with air conditioning manufacturers. Integration between the KNX building automation system and the VRV/VRF air conditioning unit is plug and play, no adapter or external power source is required, and bidirectional data exchange occurs with confirmed actions and statuses and error detection.
Available controls* include:
- ON/OFF
- mode (Cool, Heat, Auto, Dry, Fan)
- fan speed
- temperature setpoint
- room temperature feedback
- diagnostics
- consumption monitoring
The device is available with communication interface for manufacturers Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Toshiba, Panasonic, LG, Samsung and others.
*) Some control and monitoring features may not be present or may be limited based on individual manufacturer's VRF/VRV unit models.
