QA Graphics Releases v3.1 of BAS Symbol Library for Building Controls Industry
Des Moines, Iowa – February 1, 2011
– QA Graphics, an industry leader in the design of BAS graphics, is
proud to announce the release of version 3.1 of their 3D symbol library
for building automation system (BAS) software.
A core part of QA Graphics’ business
is graphic outsourcing, taking mechanical control drawings and creating
system graphics for the end user. With this experience, they developed
the BAS Symbol Library to offer more appealing and realistic graphics
than typically provided with BAS software. Version 3.1 is
an updated release of the original graphics library. It allows users to
maintain their existing software while accessing high-end graphics to
provide their customers with a nicer looking user interface.
Over 45 new symbols are available
with version 3.1, and several new categories have been added to offer
graphics for fire systems, lighting systems, lab systems and security
systems. New symbols include heat pumps, sensors, roof elements
for roof top units, compressors, boilers for popular HVAC equipment
providers including Cleaver-Brooks, Murray and Buderus, and a variety
of other symbols needed to create control system graphics. View

With the release of v3.1, this
graphics library for BAS Software now provides over 310 static graphics
and more than 95 animated graphics to construct BAS graphics and HVAC
graphics. Key symbols include boilers, chillers, dampers,
filters, piping, fans, cooling towers, generators, valves, ductwork,
coils and more. This allows users to create more than 95% of all
mechanical systems.
The BAS Symbol Library is compatible with the following systems:
• Alerton
• Andover
• Reliable Controls
• TAC
• Trane
• Tridium
The library is provided for
unlimited use by one physical company location, and may be used by
additional locations for a one-time licensing fee. To provide
users with graphics that are secure and unique to their business, major
equipment components will be watermarked with a 3-letter acronym
(watermark can be visible or undetectable). For Tridium NiagaraAX
users, QA Graphics has developed a BAS Image Module so the library can
be licensed on a per project basis. Use of the secure graphics can be
affordably licensed for Niagara AX JACE and Supervisor devices.
To meet customer needs, the library
is offered at two levels: Commercial, which offers an extensive variety
of graphic options, and Lite Commercial, which offers a condensed
symbol set. For those already using QA Graphics’ BAS Symbol
Library, customers can upgrade to v3.1 for a one-time fee and access
all of the updates.
The BAS Symbol Library has been
implemented at numerous facilities across the country, and several
leading control system manufacturers have worked with QA Graphics to
develop custom libraries. To learn more about the library or QA
