Chicago, IL – January 13, 2015 - Magnum Energy Solutions, a
manufacturer of innovative wireless solutions, is showcasing its newest
line of wireless self-powered energy management and monitoring products
at AHR Expo booth 3666 within the Building Automation and Control area.
By leveraging wireless, batteryless technology, Magnum’s solutions
offer considerable advantages, including improved flexibility, enhanced
occupant comfort and reduced energy consumption. The open and
interoperable technology offers both stand-alone applications as well
as capabilities to seamlessly integrate to nearly any existing building
system. This integration is accomplished using an eBox, which
automatically translates incoming wireless transmissions into BACnet IP
objects. Attendees are welcome to visit the booth for a visual
demonstration of the capabilities of this unique device.
In addition to demonstrating its core solution, Magnum will launch its
new, industry-leading products that are poised to elevate the capacity
for wireless within the HVAC industry. ROOT is an android-based
thermostat strategically designed for the multifamily sector with
applications for hotels and commercial offices as well. ROOT consists
of a capacitive touchscreen, speakers and is enabled with Bluetooth,
WiFi, an Ethernet jack and Verizon mobile technology. This device is
fully customizable and can interface with other third-party
applications, including package notification, access control, security
and more.
The multifamily sector has been historically slow to embrace “smart
technology” as an amenity or marketing tool, but developers and
property managers are increasingly acknowledging that more residents
are looking for apartments with features that give them a greater sense
of control. Mike Smith, VP of Building Technology at Forest City sees
smart apartment technology as an important benefit for both residents
and management. He notes that Forest City has 1,100 apartment units in
Chicago and on any given day 100 could be vacant. “So with the click of
a button, we can power everything down and even see if any windows are
open.” Mr. Smith adds, “Magnum’s android-based, wireless ROOT presents
the future of residential living.”
With eBox, traditional hard-wired building automation systems can be
connected to wireless end devices tied to temperature, humidity, CO2,
motion and LUX sensors. With the goal to be integrated, intelligent
buildings can be better monitored and managed to attain increased
efficiencies and improved occupant comfort.

Also to be highlighted at Magnum Energy’s booth 3666 will be the
revolutionary Perfect Pair technology, which allows for thermostatic
control of hot water and steam heating systems. A wireless valve
actuator is paired with a wireless digital thermostat that
automatically adjusts the amount of steam or hot water flowing through
the radiator. These devices work in a stand-alone capacity, or can be
integrated into a building automation system through Magnum’s eBox, for
better balancing.
Magnum is also using AHR Expo to announce their new partnership with
Optigo Networks, the leader in building network end solutions. This
partnership combines Magnum’s energy management solutions with Optigo’s
flexible and versatile network solutions to create powerful smart
building solutions.
