What began with an international call for bids has since evolved into an intensive partnership on an equal footing, almost between friends. In cooperation with STEINEL, MV Werften GmbH will be providing several cruise ships with intelligent sensor technology over the next few years. This is where the focus is on maximising efficiency in terms of using the very scarce energy resources on board. The hotel Park Inn by Radisson, which belongs to MV Werften GmbH, was a first step in this respect.
True Presence® from STEINEL lets us optimise the way in which we control the air conditioning, saving energy and money - while also making our guests feel more comfortable.
It's good when things simply work as they should without any major input. Like the IR 180 UP easy does, which can be used to automate light in corridors, stairwells or WCs in hardly any time at all.
Based on a person's breathing movements, the presence detector identifies whether a guest is in a room or not.
Hardly visible and particularly shallow, the IR Quattro MICRO IR presence detector with all-round vision also reliably detects movements in areas exposed to moisture and humidity.
The hotel's energy management system uses the information from the True Presence® presence detector that a guest has left the room. Unnoticed by the hotel guest, the temperature in the empty room is lowered by 2°C. This can make an energy saving of 12%.
The True Presence registers when no person is left in the room.
After about 20 minutes, the room temperature is lowered by 2°C.
This can cut energy consumption by as much as 12%.
The information that is provided on whether a hotel guest is in or out is also to be used in future for optimising the processes involved in running the hotel Park Inn by Radisson Wismar. Using the Building Intelligence solution from STEINEL, room service will in future be able to focus on cleaning rooms while guests are out so as to avoid disturbing them. At the same time, reception gets feedback on which rooms are already cleaned and can be assigned to new guests. This enhances the way in which service personnel are planned and deployed, and improves the hotel's occupancy rate.
Light and sensor solutions tailored to the special architecture of narrow and long corridors. With special, long-range corridor sensors and intelligently networkable lighting systems, light is switched automatically.
Optimal, functional automatic light and fresh air in the meeting room. Intelligent sensor solutions from STEINEL create a productive meeting atmosphere and save energy at the same time.
With the aid of intelligent sensors, the light in sporadically used rooms such as the bathroom and WC is switched according to use. This saves energy and makes the light switch superfluous.
