Souchier, for natural ventilation and energy performance of buildings

Building energy management and improving personal comfort are daily concerns for everyone involved in the construction industry. There's a clear synergy between climate control and natural smoke extraction, which allows for the use of Natural Smoke and Heat Evacuation Devices (NSHEVs) installed to provide natural ventilation in all types of buildings.

Whether for public buildings such as schools, airports, train stations, shopping centers, or commercial and industrial buildings, SOUCHIER, a specialist in smoke extraction and natural ventilation systems, offers solutions that meet the new environmental guidelines for energy savings.

Buildings account for nearly 40% of energy consumption. The objectives set by the future 2012 Thermal Regulations aim to halve this consumption.
SOUCHIER now offers technical solutions leading to 50% reductions in energy consumption.

Controlling Natural Ventilation and/or Shading
Natural ventilation of a building has multiple advantages:
• use of existing smoke extraction equipment,
• reduction of the energy bill in an air-conditioned building,
• maintaining ambient climatic conditions in a non-air-conditioned building,
• reduction or elimination of mechanical air conditioning, depending on the building configuration,
• make the mandatory smoke extraction installation profitable.

Installed on roofs, integrated into glass roofs and atriums or on a facade, Souchier's Natural Smoke and Heat Evacuation Devices (NSHEDs) allow natural smoke extraction from buildings and can be adapted to all configurations.

The Shadow
Sun protection helps reduce energy consumption by acting at different levels:
• on the reduction of heat intake in summer,
• by promoting heat intake in winter,
• by limiting heat loss with additional insulation, in the closed position,
• ensuring visual comfort and preventing glare of occupants.

AEROPACK
The AEROPACK is a comprehensive, fully automated natural ventilation management solution that optimizes building energy management and occupant comfort.
The AEROPACK takes into account the following elements:
• outside temperature,
• indoor temperature of the area,
• ambient set point,
• presence of rain and/or wind.

AEROSUN and AEROSUN RADIO
Ventilation and Shading Boxes
The new boxes AEROSUN et AEROSUN Radio SOUCHIER's motors allow you to open and close windows, roller shutters, blinds and sunshades using 230 Vac or 24 Vdc electric motors, depending on the model.
To obtain automatic control of weather conditions from the control units, the following can be connected:
• rain sensors,
• wind sensors,
• light sensors (the light sensor is only available in 4-motor versions),
• manual and/or thermostat controls.

The AEROSUN Weather Shading Box is a simple and easy-to-install device that can control a 230 Vac electric motor for shading, in automatic and manual mode.

The weather station offers:
• outside temperature,
• rain probe,
• wind probe.

The ambient display presents different information:
• room temperature,
• room temperature set point,
• manual control,
• information on the elements of the weather station,
• wireless connection with the weather station (LR6 battery).

The AEROSUN Weather Radio Box is a new natural ventilation management device for a ventilation zone:
• 230 Vac or 24 Vdc electric motor,
• radio communication between the weather station and the ambient display.
This box interprets the state of the weather conditions and produces an automatic execution command that the user can configure using an electronic programming keypad with display screen.

JACE - WEB SERVER
JACE from SOUCHIER is a new Web operator interface which facilitates secure access to all AEROPACK boxes present on the same LonWorks communication bus.

The web server JACE offers a complete graphical user interface, via a web browser, with multiple functionalities for Centralized Technical Management:
• password access management,
• consultation and acknowledgment of alarms,
• consultation and modification of points,
• management of historical tracking of points,
• dynamic tracking management of points,
• management of timetables,
• quick access point group
• event notification by e-mail,
• possibility of integrating basic graphics.
