Sauter in Southbank project install and commission

Sauter Automation, Southbank Place, Vision Centre

Sauter Automation has completed the design, installation and commissioning of the controls package for the buildings known as One and Two Southbank Place in London. This is a mixed-use development with the signature Shell Centre Tower building at the heart of it. The project is a joint venture by developers Canary Wharf Group plc (CWG) and Qatari Diar, working together to revitalise the area with high quality architecture and much improved public spaces.

The installation included the Sauter Modulo 5 system which meets all the challenges posed by an open, modular and cross platform building management solution. The technology is entirely based on the open BACnet/IP communication protocol via Ethernet and any other existing IT networks. It allows for the complete exchange of data for complex building management functions, including air conditioning, with pinpoint accuracy as well as convenient room automation, all integrated within a single, scalable, system.

On this project, Sauter has also provided its Vision Centre solution, a front-end for FM managers that allows them to access comprehensive live data and performance figures for both buildings and which encompasses the management of building, energy and maintenance functions.
