As a recently approved CIBSE-accredited CPD trainer, Sontay has introduced its first course for building-services engineers on wireless temperature-sensing systems. The course covers how, for comparison, wired systems are installed into buildings, the evolution of wireless technology into our everyday lives, early wireless sensing devices, wireless technologies available and their differences, how radio systems work, and the advantages of using wireless systems over conventional systems in HVAC control applications.

The course can be presented at Sontay’s specialist training facility in Edenbridge, Kent, or on a customer’s own premises.
