Siemens adds the PXC7 controllers to its Desigo portfolio

Desigo PXC controllers

• Desigo PXC7 building automation controller enables tailor-made and scalable solutions for larger buildings
• Speeds up and simplifies engineering and commissioning process
• Higher resilience and availability thanks to BACnet Secure Connect communication

(PRESS RELEASE) ZUG, 20-Apr-2022 — /EuropaWire/ — Siemens Smart Infrastructure, Siemens AG’s company for intelligent, adaptive infrastructure, has announced the addition of its PXC7 controllers to the Desigo portfolio to expand the flexibility it offers to building automation practitioners. The move follows the company’s launch of the PXC4 and PXC5 controllers for the optimized control of small and medium-sized buildings.

This new addition allows professionals to program heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) applications for larger buildings. Thanks to its simplified integration capabilities, the Desigo PXC7 controller supports system integrators in providing a complete automation solution.

The controller is natively equipped with cloud connectivity so users can execute maintenance tasks remotely, allowing for faster reaction and saving travel time and costs, as well as additional services over the building lifecycle. Desigo PXC7 brings the new standard communication protocol BACnet Secure Connect to the new line of PXC controllers, a crucial requirement to secure connected building automation systems and defend them against cyber attacks.

The combination of compact hardware with the intuitive engineering software helps project managers to gain efficiency over the whole lifecycle, from engineering to operation. The Desigo engineering framework provides pre-configured libraries together with consistent and harmonized workflows to save training time and speed up project completion.
