Product Specification

NP16214_01SL Schneider Electric Unica KNX 8-Key Tactile Feedback Thermostat Controller

I. Core Product Parameters​

1. Basic Configuration​

• Keys & Interaction: 8 programmable touch keys with LED status indicators​ (supporting backlight sensing and night mode); tactile feedback​ (provides physical vibration or force feedback upon key press, enhancing operational confirmation for high-safety requirements in industrial/medical scenarios).
• Material & Appearance: Made of Smoke Gray (SL)​ industrial-grade plastic with a matte finish, IP20 protection (anti-misoperation); panel size fits standard 86-type wall boxes (flush-mounted installation).
• Bus Protocol: Supports KNX protocol​ (compatible with KNXnet/IP), built-in bus coupler (single bus terminal for 21-30V DC power supply), interoperable with KNX sensors (e.g., temperature, humidity) and actuators (e.g., lighting, curtain controllers).

2. Temperature Control Features​

• Sensor Integration: Built-in high-precision temperature sensor​ (accuracy ±0.5℃), supporting real-time temperature monitoring and display (optional LCD screen); can connect to external KNX-compliant temperature sensors (e.g., room temperature sensors) for more accurate environmental temperature collection.
• Control Modes:
  • Fan Coil Unit (FCU): Supports cooling/heating mode switching, fan speed adjustment (high/medium/low/auto), and setpoint temperature adjustment (16-30℃);
  • Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF): Supports cooling/heating/dehumidification/ventilation mode switching and setpoint temperature adjustment;
  • Underfloor Heating: Supports PI control (proportional-integral), PWM pulse-width modulation, or 2-point on/off feedback control, with setpoint adjustment range 16-30℃;
  • Fresh Air: Supports ventilation mode switching and fan speed adjustment.
• Extended Functions: Supports logic control​ (AND/OR/XOR logic, threshold comparators, e.g., auto-start ventilation when temperature >28℃), delay function​ (0.1-60s delay after key press to prevent misoperation), and scene linkage​ (e.g., "Home Mode" automatically adjusts room temperature to 22℃).

3. Electrical & Environmental Parameters​

• Power Consumption: Standby power consumption <1W, operating current 0.5-2mA (load-dependent);
• Communication Distance: Maximum 300 meters per KNX bus segment (requires repeater for extension);
• Operating Temperature: -10℃~55℃ (industrial-grade temperature control for harsh environments);
• Humidity Range: 10%-90% RH (non-condensing).

II. Application Scenarios​

1. Smart Home Scenarios​

• Living Room: Control air conditioning (cooling/heating), underfloor heating (setpoint temperature), and motorized curtains (opening angle) via the 8-key panel; implement scenes like "Movie Mode" (turn off main lights, dim ambient lights, adjust room temperature to 24℃) and "Guest Mode" (turn on main lights, adjust room temperature to 22℃); tactile feedback​ ensures accurate key operation and avoids misoperation.
• Bedroom: Adjust bedside lamp brightness and color temperature (with RGB lighting control), link motorized curtains to sunrise for automatic opening (ensure sleep comfort with temperature control); night mode​ (reduced LED brightness) avoids strong light interference.
• Kitchen: Motion-activated cabinet lights, link range hoods to stove ignition signals, and display refrigerator status (enhance convenience); temperature control​ ensures a comfortable kitchen environment (e.g., cooling in summer, heating in winter).

2. Commercial Building Scenarios​

• Hotel Guest Rooms: As a guest room control terminal, support "Welcome Mode" (fade-in entrance and bedside lights, adjust room temperature to 23℃) and "Energy-Saving Mode" (turn off non-essential devices, lower room temperature to 18℃); tactile feedback​ enhances guest experience (e.g., confirm air conditioning mode switching); supports remote control (via KNX gateway, enable mobile APP or computer remote monitoring).
• Offices: Zonal control of workstation lighting (e.g., 50% brightness for meeting areas) and air conditioning (independent temperature adjustment per zone), support "Meeting Mode" (close curtains, dim lights, start projector); logic control​ (e.g., auto-start ventilation when temperature >28℃) improves office comfort.
• Shopping Malls: Automatically switch public area lighting and air conditioning according to business hours (e.g., full on during business hours, emergency lights only during closing); temperature control​ ensures a comfortable mall environment (e.g., 24-26℃ in summer, 18-20℃ in winter), reducing energy costs.

3. Industrial Scenarios​

• Factory Workshops: Control production line lighting (high-brightness white light) and ventilation systems (auto-start exhaust when humidity >60%); tactile feedback​ ensures operator safety (e.g., confirm equipment startup); logic control​ (e.g., auto-start ventilation when temperature is too high) improves production efficiency and safety.
• Warehousing & Logistics: PIR-activated shelf lights, link access control to lighting alarms (red warning for unauthorized entry); temperature control​ ensures proper warehouse temperature (e.g., 18-22℃ for pharmaceutical warehouses), protecting goods quality.
• Data Centers: Control computer room air conditioning and UPS power to ensure equipment operates at suitable temperatures (20-25℃); tactile feedback​ enhances operator accuracy (e.g., confirm air conditioning mode switching); KNX protocol​ supports integration with the data center's BA system (Building Automation System) for centralized management.
