Introduction to BMS
By Dr. Saranga Abeygunawadane
What is a BMS?
Building Management Systems (BMS) (also
called (BAS Building Automation Systems) are
used in buildings for automatic monitoring and
control of services such as heating & airconditioning, lighting, generators, computer
networks, fire services etc..
Systems of a System

Applications
Offices:
Controlling the central HVAC system with its
boilers, chillers and air-handling units, sun
blinds and lighting in each room.
Each person can set their own working
climate using the PC application.
The whole system is remotely controlled and
maintained via a modem
18
Applications
Hotels:
Every room is controlled with a personal
Comfort zone.
Guests can express and select their climate
preferences - though this may not be
necessary, because, thanks to the link with the
hotel reservation system, the room will
already be comfortable by the time they
arrive.
19
Applications
Hospitals:
In addition to the central air-conditioning
systems, the climate in the operating theatres
can be accurately controlled.
Technical staff is informed via the Digital
Equipment Cordless Telephone (DECT)
network and have access to the control
system from any location via web servers.
20
Applications
Retail chains:
Both lighting and temperature can be
controlled.
Using the existing network that connects all
the sites to one another, the temperature in
cold stores is recorded and monitored from a
central location so as to guarantee product
quality.
21
Applications
Conference halls:
Faults in the building control system are
reported by the alarm management
application Center.
Graphic duty schedules are used to report
faults via the paging system, GSM or e-mail to
the engineers, and via the Open Data Base
Connectivity (ODBC) link to the facility
management system, where the messages are
archived and worksheets can be generated.
22
Applications
Any Other small and large scale buildings:
Laboratories
Universities
Governmental and private buildings that need
precise control of services
23
Benefits of Interoperability
Data Sharing
Eliminates need for multiple input devices
such as occupancy sensors
Use one system time clock or one button press
to activate multiple system events

owners
Environmentally friendly (site, energy, water,
materials) for surroundings
