Christiniana Hotel in Oslo to ensure an energy-efficient,
environmentally sound and stable operation of the hotel.
The products have been installed according to energy and environmental
BREEAM certification, which is used by property owners.
The hotel will with its
15 floors become one of the most exclusive hotels in
Norway.
It was originally
a purpose-built hotel, built in 1952 for the Winter Olympic Games in
Oslo.
The hotel has
532 rooms, 21 conference rooms and restaurants, making it the second
largest hotel in Norway.

supplied the automation solution for the
VAV control system, heating in
bathrooms and card readers attached to the hotel computer to minimize
energy consumption and provide a stable indoor climate.
With these systems, the
temperature in the room s can be controlled
automatically according to actual needs resulting in significant energy
savings.

High demands have been specified in
the construction of the hotel to create a building with a
low energy consumption and the goal is that the hotel area
of the property be accepted as environmentally
friendly and energy efficient.
APīs solution met all requirements for functionality, reliability and
energy efficiency.
The system is also compatible with other systems
installed in the building, which will make it easier for guests and
simplify the management of the property.
Clarion Royal Christiniana is a large
hotel and a landmark in Oslo where energy issues are high on
the agenda.
APīs system is well suited for hotel
operations, where there is a clear focus on
controlling energy use based on occupancy.

Ouality Hotel intends to impress with the high
standard of comfort that is available to our guests.
AP Climate zone control is playing an important part in this system that
provides individual control of the airconditioning in every single
guestroom.
The BMS has been interfaced with the hotelīs front office computer,
which helps prevent energy waste.
The 6-storey Quality Hotel has 242 bedrooms, a conference suite, a
ballroom and - six floors up - a fantastic restuarant.
Every bedroom is air-conditioned, by heating and cooling units fitted
with a Modbus compliant AP MPC room controller.
|
|
The latter regulates the roomīs temperature by modulating the heating
valves and cooling by VAV and controlling the temperature in the bathroom.
Guests can adjust conditions via the wall-mounted
MPC controller.
When a guest checks in, the MPC automatically
starts controlling room temperature to the occupied setpoint.
On check-out it reverts to a setback level.
This is possible owing to the interface between BMS and the hotelīs
front office system, from which data is communicated to the MPC
controllers via iFix supervisor system.
The MPC connects to Modbus communication buses, that run the full
height of the building.
Authorised personnel are able to access system settings and monitored
data from anywhere in the hotel using just a laptop, which is all that
is needed to create an iFix supervisor.
They can do this from any of the guestrooms, all of which have Modbus
access - and through that to the IFix server. |

Guests
create their own indoor climate at historic hotel in Norway
The historic hotel Dr.Holms, in the winter sports resort Geilo has
installed a modern automation solution, where the climate in each room
will be controlled. The multi-functional controller MPC contributes to
this comfortable technology.
The compact, user-friendly room device creates a pleasant and invidual
room climate.
A well-organized display and a keypad with dedicated symbols, clearly
show the controller's functions and status.
The universal display clearly shows the desired or measured values.
The MPC was suitable due to its flexibility, which is convenient when
properties are being totally renovated and rooms rearranged.
MODBUS
The MPC is a Modbus Application Specific Controller and communicates
with other superior systems like the DHC, the web, etc.
Advantages like serial room controllers are many, such as savings in
energy costs, thanks to a central workstation that prevent systems from
regulating unnecessarily or too much.

|
|
|
|
It is also about the increased comfort of getting
preheated rooms from centrally set times. The
network also provides the possibility to read, archive and set values
from the workstation.
