Building Services Engineering l January/February 2022

Frankfurt am Main 2 – 6 October 2022

Lighting and predictive maintenance Regular system monitoring and predictive maintenance is essential across all building services engineering sectors, not just to prevent downtime but also to maximise energy efficiency. In the lighting sector, new technologies enable components to connect with each other and data to be collected continuously. This can be achieved through predictive maintenance and is one of the main themes at the forthcoming Light + Building 2022 which will now take place on 2 to 6 October 2022.

The sustainability and climate debates entail higher technological and energy efficiency requirements for the systems in buildings. Zero emission buildings are a proclaimed goal of the EU and are stipulated in the European EPBD (Energy Performance of Building Directives). In addition, the political will for sector coupling of all elements of building services systems is shaping the trend towards energy and condition monitoring. However, far from being a major challenge, increasingly complex technical building equipment (TBE) will make predictive maintenance economical for all. However, this requires detailed measurement and control technology to be implemented in the building. In the future, a central meter for billing in the building will no longer be sufficient, because modern buildings require sub-metering structures and measured value recording for all energy flows and media. These are, among other things, the prerequisites for energy management in accordance with ISO 50001 in functional buildings with diverse savings potential. Detailed data acquisition, combined with self-learning algorithms, creates a real-time analysis for energy flows and consumptions. This allows correlations of different measured values to be analysed, visualised and configured. A dashboard is then used to operate the
