We put a technical package together and presented it to the school where they could interrogate each buildings controls utilising a web browser to communicate with the building management systems via the schools existing Ethernet computer network.
The school are in the process of upgrading the controls in all of the plantrooms with the control system installed in each plantroom needing to be flexible and capable of being added to at a later date for further monitoring facilities to be added at a later date.
The schools new impressive Sports Pavilion has been installed with the same Trend controls and can also be interrogated remotely (the site is some 2 mile from the main school campus).
A Trend IQ3 Ethernet based system building management system was supplied and installed for the King's School which was founded in 597AD when St Augustine arrived in Canterbury to evangelise England.
The Kings School is placed in the stunning setting of the Precincts of Canterbury Cathedral and St Augustine's Abbey - a World Heritage site.
Canterbury Cathedral is the Mother Church of the Anglican Communion and the School is part of the Cathedral Foundation.
The site is very challenging as there are over 30 small plantrooms. The school’s maintenance staff found that they spend a considerable amount of time walking from plantroom to plantroom.
Due to the nature of the sites buildings, the substantial thickness of the building fabric and the wide spread out nature of the buildings networking the control panels together in a conventional manner would be impossible.
