Samsung Offering B2B Customers b.IoT Lite: Cost-Effective Tool for HVAC Controls

Samsung is offering its B2B customers b.IoT Lite – an innovative, cost effective and centralised “lite” version of Samsung’s broader building management systems – providing specialised HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) control and innovative energy-consumption reducing features. This revolutionary system is paving the way for the future of sustainable smart buildings.

With Internet of Things (IoT) technology expanding beyond the home to all types of buildings including those in the commercial space, Samsung is creating a new type of “smart building”. This server-based, integrated control solution is designed specifically for managing Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF/DVM S2) system air conditioners for its customer’s small and medium-sized buildings as well as large offices – offering a more affordable entry point into smart HVAC control.

The key features of b.IoT Lite also include Artificial Intelligent (AI)-driven algorithms tailored for Samsung’s next-generation, commercial-grade  DVM S2 – ensuring comfort as part of the evolution of “smart buildings” – while reducing energy consumption, alongside energy usage monitoring per device.

As a B2B customer, you can therefore be rest assured that Samsung’s system will be able to monitor your building’s energy usage per device through meters, compare with data from previous periods and manage energy usage based on predefined targets. Beyond HVAC, this innovative solution allows for the integration and control of your other building facilities, such as sensors and lighting, centering on the HVAC system. This centralised b.IoT management system is able to provide a unified platform to control numerous Samsung indoor units – enabling scheduling, operation monitoring and system management from a single screen.

b.IoT is designed specifically to optimise building operations through an integrated facility monitoring and control. Samsung is now able to offer customised solutions tailored to your building’s size, facilities and usage.​ Based on the type and scale of the facilities requiring integration, we can recommend the ideal license type and quantity for your business.

For small and medium size buildings that include commercial offices and the retail space – the b.IoT platform is able to manage multiple zones efficiently. It is also able to monitor and control as well as air purification panels in small hotels. In order to ensure that Samsung also caters for the needs of customers with medium to large buildings – notifications are provided to minimise energy waste caused by inefficient use of VRFs due to an administrator’s absence or negligence.

With the company’s user-centric mobile experience, Samsung’s b.IoT platform can provide building occupants with a variety of personalised, ^[1]. Samsung has now made smart building a reality – it is no longer a concept for the distant future. The company plans to continue supplying DVM S2 to a variety of buildings including offices, retail shops, hotels, campus buildings and residences. With b.IoT, we are now able to analyse and control the HVAC system, lights, power supply and machinery in a building to maximise energy efficiency.

This B2B integrated offering remains as one of Samsung’s most innovative, industry-specific comprehensive solutions; tailored to your individual building needs.
