Applications for Building Automation
At Maple Systems, we’ve partnered with customers across industries to deliver automation solutions that solve real-world challenges. From HVAC, lighting, other building systems, to security, energy management, and remote access systems, our technology is trusted.
Wide Product Selection
Fives Lund, a system integrator, chose one of our Industrial PC to run their SCADA software package on the Space Needle. The function of the Maple Systems Industrial PC is pretty straight-forward.
“It allows the operators to set the speed and direction of the rotating glass floor, and gives us the ability to monitor of any faults or warnings, and a view into the load-sharing by the twelve AC motors that spin that turntable,” said Ken Roach, Senior Controls Engineer, Fives Lund
Energy Management
Maple Systems has thousands of installations dedicated to energy management. Customers have noticed savings in the 20 to 50% ranges are not uncommon. Wireless and remote installations, collecting data and reporting back to a centralized facility helps customers manage many locations at once.
HVAC
Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning provide comfort and safe working conditions – so don’t allow unexpected failures to catch you off guard. Real-time monitoring and trending of system performance, efficiency and output allows you to predict problems before they occur. Furthermore, scheduled maintenance is not easily forgotten because staff receive an email or message on their mobile phone providing notification of the exact operation to be performed. From changing a filter to lubrication, to full system tests that may be years apart, let our solutions provide the peace of mind you need.
Lighting
Commercial buildings can be mammoth-sized energy and expense wasters. And when energy is wasted, it leads to the loss of jaw-droppingly big bucks—millions nationally, according to research. A building automation system can control lighting using schedules, manual controls, occupancy sensors, and photosensors, either singly or in combination. Much of the energy savings produced by a building automation system comes from scheduling the operation of electrical loads. Our intuitive HMI configuration software and HMI products can help you reduce wasted energy and costs.
Security
This digital transformation of the building automation sector involves moving away from older proprietary systems and adopting edge-to-cloud computing architectures. Our industry solutions help you design a solution that best fits your needs now and for the future as your company demands change. The remote viewing of real-time surveillance video, logging of personnel entry/exit, door status, window sensors and dedicated security system monitoring makes our solutions an excellent choice for your building’s automation system.
Remote Access
Maple Systems can serve as your guide, making it an easy process to join the next evolution of automated control. Maple Systems HMIs, Gateways, and Industrial PCs are your gateway to the IIoT. Our products are an access point enabling operating equipment in the field or on the plant floor to connect to information technologies of the World Wide Web, databases, smart phones, analytic software, and more. Achieve better access to invaluable data and open up a world of possibilities for your business.
