Innovation award finalist – Wireless BACnet is revolutionizing Building Automation
The AHR Innovation Awards celebrate and honor manufacturers shaping the future of HVACR. LumenRadio’s wireless W-BACnet solution has been recognized as an Innovation Award finalist in the Building Automation category, underscoring its groundbreaking contribution to the industry.
The U.S.-based AHR Expo unites the entire HVACR (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) community, showcasing cutting-edge products and technologies. With over 1,800 exhibitors and more than 50,000 attendees, AHR is the largest and most influential industry event in North America.
As the building automation sector increasingly shifts toward innovative, sustainable solutions, LumenRadio’s W-BACnet stands out as a groundbreaking addition and offers a revolutionary approach by replacing traditional BACnet MS/TP cabling with a reliable, wireless mesh network. Wireless control in building automation is an innovation that facilitates creating sustainable buildings, greatly amplifies project throughput and substantially increases revenue potential, turning time saved into profit earned.
Carl Wäppling, product development manager for building automation and industrial control systems at LumenRadio explains the uniqueness of the product;
“The benefits of replacing traditional BACnet cabling with wireless technology are immense, and W-BACnet is one of its kind on the market today. No other product offers the same reliability and ease of installation.”
With benefits like faster installation, minimal tenant disruption, and enhanced energy efficiency, W-BACnet is truly a game-changer for the building automation industry.
Maciej Oldziej, LumenRadios General Manager in North America comments the nomination:
“The industry has undergone a significant transformation over the past few years, and this nomination solidifies that change. System integrators, consultants, and building owners now recognize the substantial cost savings of adopting wireless BACnet over traditional cabling. Our technology’s unparalleled reliability has further assured them that W-BACnet offers performance and dependability equal to — or even exceeding — that of physical cables.”
