Eaton
Bremca is an authorised Eaton systems integrator.
Eaton’s automation software portfolio has a solution for every size application. Easy-to-use flexible programming tools will give your machine an edge with the stunning visual capabilities of Galileo or easy to integrate control solutions using CODESYS OR easySoft.
Comprehensive solutions for intrinsic safety, fieldbus, signal conditioning, industrial networking, surge protection and HMI that control, operate and protect your assets and safety-critical processes.
Schneider
Bremca is an authorised Schneider systems integrator.
Schneider Electric automation and control products and solutions cover the breadth of the industrial, infrastructure and building sectors – from programmable relays to motion controllers and interface modules, for applications from simple machines to complex process systems.
Schneider PLC’s control and monitor industrial operations in a sustainable, flexible, efficient, and protected way.
They supply leading edge technology, augmenting it with Ethernet connectivity, built-in cybersecurity, and processing power needed to handle Big Data analysis and protect against new vulnerabilities among connected industrial assets, across devices or into the cloud.
SCADA
SCADA, which stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, is a control system architecture comprising computers, networked data communications and graphical user interfaces for high-level process supervisory management, while also comprising other peripheral devices like programmable logic controllers (PLC’s) and discrete proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers to interface with process plant or machinery.
Telemetry
BREMCA has undertaken many projects that require the transmission of data, measurements, and instructions from remote locations to a centralised platform or base stations. We’ve utilised various mediums such as direct line of sight, radio and cellular, often across difficult and challenging terrain.
Power Control & Monitoring Systems (PCMS)
The Bremca One monitoring solution is completely manufacturer agnostic. It offers data in a user friendly format tailored to a customer’s specific requirements allowing them to record and monitor a variation of data.
Our power management solution allows the detailed tracking of energy used by individual services and equipment. The level of detail can be chosen to reflect the desired outcome – this may be for energy management and minimisation, or load shedding, through to on charging tenants for their share of services including lighting, common areas, and centralised services such as lifts and elevators.
Building Management Systems - BMS
Building Management Systems (BMS) are the brain of a modern building.
The BMS will monitor and control all aspects of a building including ventilation, fire, energy, and security systems.
The data gathered from around a building or facility is brought back to a central interface from a range of proprietary equipment and systems, enabling a single point from which all building activity can be controlled.
With the focus on building and energy efficiency, the BMS allows the building owner to see where energy is being used by various building components and allows them to make informed decisions.
Bremca is an approved Honeywell/Trend systems integrator and is familiar with and gained experience with other proprietary BMS systems.
Trend
Bremca is an authorised TREND distributor and systems integrator.
Trend, part of Honeywell Building Products, is one of the world’s leading BMS or BEMS brands, with a worldwide distribution and support network covering over 50 countries.
Suitable for the largest building complexes and multi-site applications, Trend systems minimise energy consumption and help maintain consistently comfortable building conditions through close monitoring of HVAC and other building services.
Our systems also deliver real time management information and control, enabling significant reductions in CO2 emissions, whilst accommodating changes in occupancy status and staff relocation at short notice.
Tridium
Bremca is an authorised TRIDIUM distributor and systems integrator.
Tridium as an independent business entity of Honeywell International, is a global leader in business application frameworks that have fundamentally changed the way devices and systems connect.
They are passionate innovators developing the operating system of the Internet of Things. From buildings and data centres to manufacturing systems, smart cities and beyond, Tridium’s open frameworks and environments are changing the rules for automation technology.
In 1999, Tridium launched its revolutionary Niagara Framework, a revolutionary universal software infrastructure that allows building controls integrators to build custom, web enabled applications for accessing, automating and controlling smart devices in real-time via a local network or over the internet.
In 2021 the Niagara Framework surpassed 1,000,000 instances (instance = installation).
Lighting Control
BREMCA uses the best technologies from around the world to deliver industry leading solutions to our customers.
Daylight harvesting is the controlled use of electric lighting and the sun to ensure a space is adequately illuminated in the most cost effective and energy effective way.
Our customers benefit from improved control of their environment whilst saving money and reducing their environmental footprint.
Solutions can utilise any mix of the commonly available protocols including DALI, KNX, DMX, and ZigBee, along with suppliers’ own proprietary network solutions.
KNX
BREMCA is an accredited KNX partner. KNX products are used in building control systems which require automation of lighting, heating and cooling, ventilation, security, and visual systems as well as web interface.
KNX devices are connected on a 2 pair bus cable, which also provides a power supply, and then configured to provide the desired functionality.
Close to 60,000 devices can be connected on a single KNX network thus allowing for an architecture which can grow with your project.
The KNX protocol has over 340 members worldwide who produce KNX certified hardware. A very large range of devices are available to meet the requirement of installations from residential buildings through to large commercial sites.
