Is the window open or closed? For smart homes especially, this is an important question which is easy to answer thanks to the energy harvesting switches from ZF.

The KNX standard is a manufacturer independent bus system for building automation applications. KNX-RF communicates in the 868 MHz frequency band and can be connected to an existing bus system or operate individually. As a member of the KNX Association, the range of their existing member’s products is now complimented with ZF’s KNX-RF switch module.

ZF Friedrichshafen AG will be presenting at the Light + Building Show in Frankfurt from 2nd to 6th October 2022 the batteryfree Bluetooth^® Low Energy switch module.

Auerbach. In recent years, the topic of sustainability has gained enormous importance throughout ZF. Our greatest impact worldwide lies in the technologies we provide.

Auerbach. Big topics of discussion within the lighting sector include sustainability, energy efficiency, low cost systems, connectivity and convenience through flexibility. One solution to address these issues, is the wireless and battery-free RF pushbutton module designed by ZF.

Intelligent lighting systems are key drivers for the rapidly growing global smart home sector. These not only have to be energy-efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective, but also connected for increased flexibility. Therefore, ZF decided to join the EnOcean Alliance in spring 2021 to join this growing market.

The partnership between Schneider Electric and ZF Friedrichshafen AG leads to a new level of smart industrial switches.

The topics of sustainability, flexibility and energy efficiency in the lighting sector are the largest airports in China. Thanks to the wireless and battery-free light switch module from ZF, lights are controlled by using the KNX-RF radio protocol at Beijing and Xinjiang airports.

The topic of sustainability is a high priority within the ZF Group. To support ZF’s energy harvesting product portfolio further, investment has been made to join the EnOcean Alliance.

Is the window open or closed? For smart homes this is a simple question but when it comes to energy efficiency and safety, it is a critical one. Thanks to the battery-free and wireless RF technology from ZF this question can be answered reliably.
