Precise BACnet Sensors – Temperature, Humidity, CO2, VOC, Pressure, Presence

A BACnet sensor is a type of sensor that is compatible with the BACnet protocol. BACnet is a standardized communication protocol used in building automation and control systems to allow different devices and systems, such as HVAC, lighting, and security systems, to communicate with each other.

The Andivi ANDBAC BACnet room sensor is a versatile device capable of measuring:

• Temperature (°C), 
• Humidity (% r.h.), 
• Pressure (mbar), 
• CO2 (ppm),
• VOC levels (AQI),
• and detecting room presence. 

Beyond these key measurements, the sensor can also compute essential values relevant for HVAC – such as dew point (°C), density of moist air (kg/m³), and enthalpy (J) making it a comprehensive tool for monitoring and optimizing indoor environments.

Housed in a sleek, indoor-compatible ABS case (Color RAL 9010) with an IP30 protection rating, the ANDBAC sensor is designed for both standard indoor settings and industrial applications, such as air handling units (AHUs) and various HVAC systems.

Setup is streamlined and intuitive—using a smartphone, you can quickly configure the BACnet address, set data parameters, and easily adjust sensor offsets, eliminating the need for traditional DIP switches.

BACnet sensors are essential components in modern building automation, providing the necessary data and interoperability to enhance building operations and occupant comfort.

All of our sensors meet the following standards:

All sensors are made and designed in Slovenia (EU) and ensure accurate measurement with high precision.. We provide 3-year guarantee on error-free operation for all sensors.

The Andivi ANDBAC room sensor is designed for precise monitoring of temperature, humidity, VOC levels, and CO2, making it a versatile solution for various environments. Available with both BACnet MS/TP and Modbus RS485 communication options, this sensor offers seamless integration into your building management system.

Configuration is as easy as it gets. Simply touch the sensor with your smartphone, and a mobile app instantly opens in your web browser. From there, you can quickly set up all the necessary Modbus or BACnet settings without the hassle of adjusting tiny DIP switches. This intuitive approach streamlines the setup process, ensuring that your sensor is ready to communicate with your system in no time.

In HVAC systems, temperature sensors are vital for monitoring and controlling the climate within a space. They help regulate heating and cooling systems to maintain a stable and comfortable temperature. Proper temperature control not only enhances comfort but also improves energy efficiency.

Use Cases for Temperature Measurement in HVAC

• Room Temperature Control: Sensors help maintain the desired room temperature by adjusting heating or cooling systems.
• Energy Management: Accurate temperature measurement enables HVAC systems to operate efficiently, reducing energy consumption.
• Safety Monitoring: Temperature sensors detect overheating or cooling in critical equipment, preventing damage and ensuring safety.
• Zonal Control: In large buildings, temperature sensors help manage different zones, ensuring each area is comfortable.
• Air Quality Management: Temperature influences air quality, and sensors help balance temperature with other factors like humidity for optimal indoor air conditions.

Humidity sensors in HVAC systems help maintain comfortable indoor environments by controlling dehumidifiers and humidifiers. By accurately measuring and adjusting humidity levels, these sensors ensure that the air quality is optimal, contributing to both comfort and energy efficiency.

Use Cases for Humidity Measurement in HVAC

• Indoor Air Quality: Humidity sensors ensure air within buildings is neither too dry nor too humid, supporting comfort and health.
• Mold Prevention: By monitoring and controlling humidity, these sensors help prevent mold growth in buildings.
• Comfort Optimization: Sensors adjust HVAC systems to maintain comfortable humidity levels, enhancing overall indoor experience.
• Energy Efficiency: Controlling humidity can reduce the load on HVAC systems, saving energy.
• Industrial Applications: In manufacturing environments, controlling humidity is vital for product quality and worker comfort.

VOC sensors in HVAC systems help monitor and control indoor air quality by detecting harmful gases and adjusting ventilation accordingly. This not only improves air quality but also enhances occupant comfort and health.

Use Cases for VOC Measurement in HVAC

• Office Buildings: VOC sensors detect emissions from office equipment and furnishings, ensuring a healthy work environment.
• Schools: Monitoring VOCs in classrooms helps maintain air quality, crucial for student health and concentration.
• Healthcare Facilities: VOC sensors are vital in hospitals to monitor air quality, reducing the risk of airborne contaminants.
• Industrial Settings: In factories, VOC sensors ensure air quality by detecting harmful emissions from chemicals or processes.
• Residential Buildings: VOC sensors in homes help maintain air quality, especially in areas with new construction or renovations.

In HVAC systems, CO2 sensors help regulate ventilation by monitoring air quality and adjusting fresh air intake accordingly. This ensures that indoor environments remain comfortable and healthy, while also improving energy efficiency.
