TREND Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS)

Building Energy Management Systems monitor and control services such as heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, ensuring the building operates at maximum levels of efficiency and removing wasted energy usage and associated costs. The optimal level of efficiency is achieved by continuously maintaining the correct balance between operating requirements, external and internal environmental conditions, and energy usage.

1. Energy Software

IQ®VISION is a real-time user interface that enables users to get the very best from their BEMS, providing graphical information to standard internet browsers. It boasts a diverse range of useful functions such as centralized data logging, archiving, alarming, trending, master scheduling, system-wide database management, and integration with enterprise software applications – all of which can be used for highlighting and investigating energy use within buildings.

IQ®VISION is a completely OPEN and extendable platform that is scalable for every application Trend Energy Manager software puts you in control of your building’s environmental performance and costs. There is little or no requirement for extensive product training. It uses a simple browser interface and layout to ensure the system is intuitive and easy to learn

2. Network Controllers

TONN (Trend Open Network Node) as integration controller features,

  • Seamless integration of multiple communication protocols
  • Allows greater connection of disparate equipment
  • Previously segregated systems can now be monitored and controlled by the Trend BEMS
  • Multiple Open protocols-BACnet, LON, MBUS, MODBUS, oBIX, SNMP, KNX…
3. IQ4 Main Plant Controls

The IQ4E controller has 10 universal inputs and 6 analog voltage outputs and is expandable up to 192 points (depending on the controller variant) by adding I/O modules. This flexibility makes it suitable for a broad range of applications. The IQ4E controller uses Ethernet and TCP/IP networking technologies with embedded XML and is fully compatible with other Trend IQ controllers. The IQ4E supports BACnet over IP as standard. Trend communications over a current loop LAN is available as an option. A local PC or display (e.g. IQView4) can be connected to the RS232 port. A Wallbus port is also provided for use with room displays.




4. IQeco Terminal Unit

Designed primarily for commercial buildings, the IQecos provide intelligent solutions for either individual or open-plan offices. They are also ideal for hotel applications where separate room control is required. The entire IQeco range has passed the WSP Association’s Conformance Review and as such are BACnet certified.

5. Displays

Trend provides a range of display options that allow different user types to interact with their BEMS without the fear of damage to the overall system. The range covers single controller setpoint adjustment via push-button to touch screen options through to site-wide graphical touch screen displays.

6. Field Devices & Peripherals

Pressure Sensor/Switches for Air & liquid also Temperature/Air quality sensor for the room, duct mount.
