SPS.20 ADVANCED COLOUR TOUCH SCREEN SWITCH PLATE

The SPS.20 provides an elegant full colour touch screen with a single integrated interface to Simmtronic lighting, blind and temperature control functions.

Continuing to invest in the development of innovative products, the Simmtronic Development Team has paid close attention to creating a clear and straightforward interface thereby enabling users to control lighting, blinds and room temperature effortlessly from a single product. At early stages in development, client engagement has ensured that the SPS.20 solves problems and meets the needs of the market. With the SPS.20, designers can reduce the number of interface device needed to control room functions, reducing overall component count for an installation.

In surface mount form a Decor is supplied. The standard 60.3mm screw pitch ensures that the SPS.20 can be mounted into any situation where a standard single gang box is available, this also provides for retro-fitting into existing SPECS3 installations. Compatible with most UK 25mm or deeper single gang electrical dry lining boxes and 25mm or deeper steel back-boxes.

A highly desirable feature of the SPS.20 is the elegant recess mount option which is installed via a custom back-box and clip system.

The SPS.20 provides a single clean, obvious and efficient user interface carefully refined to meet the needs of a commercial environment which may have flexible working spaces. White icons are presented with a choice of backdrop colour and image options. The presentation to users is refined and uncluttered with programmable features hidden from view.

The touch screen provides full featured scene programmability over many channels and up to 16 scenes. A balance is achieved by assigning 8 scenes to be formally defined lighting levels within the Simmtronic SPM Manager and the remaining 8 scenes to be locally programmed to user preference as required. Scene and Channel display names may be set from a predefined list of names to aid user interaction.

In order to provide the cleanest interface for day to day use, the choice of scenes presented is paired back to only those that have been programmed or enabled. At any time the current lighting level may be raised or lowered using Up/Down control.

The device features a 30,000 hour screen and solid state capacitors. To ensure screen brightness is maintained over many years, after use the switch will enter a screen saver mode running at reduced brightness and awake to full brightness as soon as the screen is pressed. The Full colour LED provides status indication.

“In-house designed injection moulded parts and a glass fronted touch screen are combined with other proven technologies to create a high-quality attractive product. Say goodbye to wall clutter and confusing interfaces and welcome in a new dawn for control technology,” says Simmtronic Hardware Lead Engineer, Phil Knowles.

“As a supplier, we are starting to see the Construction Industry pushing harder towards developing Smart Technologies and reducing its carbon footprint. With this demand in mind, the SPS.20 allows end users to integrate other buildings systems, such as temperature and blind control, into one slick device. The switch plate takes a positive step forward in reducing the building’s carbon footprint with less interfaces now required to control multiple building services,” Tomas Frenzel, Simmtronic Specification Engineer.

Simmtronic have delivered a large number of technically challenging projects for DBS and consistently continued to provide outstanding service. Their support, guidance and help throughout the process has been exceptional, working closely with our design teams to ensure the right solution for the project and a sound understanding of the brief, with our delivery teams to ensure the installation and commissioning are trouble free and then providing fantastic after care to the customer. They have added true engineered value into the projects they have been involved in for Derry Building Services.

Simmtronic have been a valued member of the DBS supply chain for over 10 years. Their pro-active and collaborative approach to lighting controls from the design stage, through to commissioning is highly valued by both our Design and Delivery Engineers.

Over the years I have really appreciated the Simmtronic ability to provide responsive support and listening to projects and clients needs. More recently the Simmtronic team has shown the capability to embrace the connectivity requirements of the Internet of Things by quickly adding MQTT to their range of integration protocols. This will greatly facilitate telemetry applications in buildings and the development of interconnected solutions that will make buildings more usable and easier to operate.

Landsec have consistently used Simmtronic Lighting Control Systems across our new London developments for over 15 years. Simmtronic understand our requirements and get involved at the very early stages of schemes, assisting consultants in achieving the optimum design solution, often taking the lead.  They always overcome the programme challenges they are faced with on site, delivering a quality, fully tested and operational solution, on time and to budget. Simmtronic undertake the maintenance and servicing across much of our London portfolio, they have a customer focused and flexible approach that suits the needs of our business and as well as our customers.

Simmtronic as an organisation has been, for the last 18 years, by far the best performing and most reliable lighting control system I use. From design through to commissioning and soft landings with the landlord teams Simmtronic always deliver on my projects. Simmtronic technology evolution is not just pushed through like others, but rather properly tested internally first, giving us as client teams the assurance that what Simmtronic say they can offer is 100% delivered, an absolute must with fast track major projects.

Simmtronic has constantly been available at an early stage to engage both with the designers and the Contracting team to assist with design solutions and to test options. This ultimately assists us in de-risking the project during the commissioning phase which usually defines when the project is completed. Simmtronic is seen as ‘industry standard’ and it is always encouraging to see them involved.
