What is Echoflex?
Echoflex products are based on the technology of EnOcean. EnOcean specializes in creating very low powered radio's, and by virtue of this are able to be powered from the ambient energy that resides around us. The mechanical push of the switch or the harnessing of solar energy is enough to provide the energy to power switches and sensors.
Echoflex' products create smart spaces. Classroom, offices, cubicle areas, warehouses, etc .... that think for themselves without the necessity of a centralized system. Retrofit all the rooms, or one at a time, it doesn't matter each room is independant from the others and thinks for itself!
How We Work
The EnOcean radio protocol is very robust. Each transmitter is pre-programmed from the factory based on a 32 bit code, giving nearly 5 billion unique codes. These telegrams, when transmitted do so in a very short packette, less likelihood of collision with other signals and with redundancy built in - 3 to 5 times in 1.7 ms, if the controller misses the first transmission it will get the second and so on. Each receiving module is able to learn up to 30 devices, and with the addition of co-processors additional devices can be used and with unique telegrams from the transmitter, it can be listened to by as many receivers that are in range.
What Makes Us Better
The benefits of an Echoflex solution;
1. Easily installed - usually only one high voltage wiring point, with sensors and switches suface mounted at optimal location for use (including cubicle walls, glass, desktop, etc.)
2. Incremental - each room thinks for itself therefore retrofit one room or all the rooms, each one is independant of the other.
3. Retrofit for largest payback first - areas of shorter payback can be done ahead of other areas with longer paybacks.
4. Less Disruption - installation of a system in a room can be under an hour in most cases.
5. Space Flexibility - with all switches and sensors being surface mounted, spaces maintain ultimate flexibility.
6. Interoperable - with interfaces to LON, BACNET and DMX our wireless solution can provide a centralized system increased control and the benefits of 1-5!
