The contract included the control of equipment in kitchens on the first and second floors, offices on the ground and third floors, an education centre, first-aid room, toilets, bars, serveries and catering areas, a food-preparation area on the fourth floor and cellars. The LON-based system operates via a host computer in the events offices and features LONworks universal network controllers in 14 motor-control panels. Installed plant includes air-handling units, extract fans, boilers, chillers, heat-recovery units and hot-water system.
