Revolutionary KNX Choke by Arcus (for standard, low-cost PSUs)
Don’t be deceived by its name, this product is actually one the most interesting new devices launched at the fair and probably the only real innovation (all the rest new devices being great updates of existing categories of devices).
For the first time, you can convert any standard off-the-shelf power supply (for instance, 24V Meanwell PSU) into a real KNX power supply!!
Please note that the biggest KNX power supply in the market at the moment is only 640mA, whereas the DR16 has current rating of 1600mA! Previously, there was no real need for more than 640 mA, but today the needs have changed and the new products (especially small KNX controllers) are more demanding in terms of power consumption.
Not a regular choke: as you know, a choke is usually integrated in every KNX power supply. Sometimes, we need to buy separate chokes for those KNX PSUs that have an additional direct output (unchoked) in order to convert them into two KNX power supplies.
This is a complete different story: the Arcus choke has got all the additional electronics integrated so as to guarantee the (very difficult to achieve) characteristic curve of a KNX power supply.
Thanks to this, the DR16 is a unique key product to maintain the high KNX standards, but enabling you to use low-cost, high-quality, standard power supplies. And the best part is DR-16 list price: 50,00 € (check with us for buying conditions)
100% KNX compliant! And you can finally reduce the cost of your KNX system components!
Please, feel free to come back to us if you have any doubts, questions, etc. Also visit our web site for more information:

KIF Conclusions and Energy Efficiency star projects
Anyway, there were also interesting conferences, like the applauded intervention from manufacturer Intesis, who talked about HVAC and saving methods.
But what we found especially interesting was the contribution of two private companies who shared their experiences in the field of Energy Efficiency and which we have extracted here:
Project: Hotel Condes de Barcelona
David Blanco Pérez from the company IJT S.L. presented at the KIF a very interesting project. They integrated the different systems (illumination, technical alarms, hot water supply, HVAC, pumps, tanks…) of the hotel Condes de Barcelona situated in the Paseo de Gracia in Barcelona. IJT achieved the main objective of the KNX integration which was to reduce the energy costs of the Hotel, even though the Hotel was expanded with another 56 suites, by up to 28% (corroborated by real invoices over the years 2007, 2008 and 2009). The energy savings was mainly achieved by the efficient control of the HVAC system by applying different modes and set-point temperatures depending on the usage of the rooms and outside temperatures.
Project: Heathrow T5
Maria La Chica from the English company ATL (Andromeda Telematics Limited) presented at the KIF the impressive 2006 KNX Award Project of the new Airport terminal, Heathrow T5. This is the Largest KNX Project and also the largest DALI lighting Project ever realized in the UK. The whole extension of the project included 2 major terminal buildings, the new flight control tower, major rail & road infrastructure, the energy centre, car parks, 120.000m sq of taxiway designed for A380 Super Jumbo.
The KNX Infrastructure includes 236 IP worlds, 910 KNX lines, 7.000 KNX devices, 64.000 DALI luminaries, lighting control, daylight dimming control, emergency lighting testing & monitoring, lamp failures, lamp hours energy calculation, control & monitoring of central batteries, LV monitoring, main plant monitoring, disabled WC alarms, lift & escalator monitoring / alarms, etc.
The most remarkable part of the presentation was the Final Conclusions: With a total CO2 emissions saving of 6,821 tons per year, a total cost saving of £1,362,498 saving per year, which leads to a final payback period of only 2.8 years for the whole project.
Please, contact us if you would like to receive more information about these remarkable projects.
As for the KNX International Forum, we wish them the best of lucks for the following editions.
