Analog Sensors

  Building Management Systems rely heavily on analog input signals to collect and analyze real-time data from various sensors. These signals play a pivotal role in monitoring, controlling, and optimizing building systems. We'll look at different analog input signal types used in BMS, highlighting their significance and applications in enhancing building performance. Temperature Sensors Temperature sensors are a fundamental component of BMS, providing critical data for HVAC control and monitoring. Analog input signals from temperature sensors enable BMS to measure ambient temperatures in different areas of the building and adjust heating and cooling systems accordingly. This ensures optimal comfort levels for occupants while maximizing energy efficiency. Thermocouples:  Thermocouples generate analog input signals based on the voltage difference created by the temperature gradient between two different metal alloys. They are widely used in BMS to measure high temperatures, makin...
