The wireless field level network (WFLN) communicates with any radio on the WFLN and provides redundant communication paths back to its associated controller. The sensors feature an LCD that displays room temperature value, set point values, override condition, and diagnostic information. The sensors have a 5-year battery life and have the ability to communicate wirelessly with room controllers when in range of any radio on the network. www.usa.siemens.com/wireless Building Automation Controls Electrical Distribution HVAC Motors, Starters, Drives Power Generation Communications Fire Protection Lighting Plumbing Software: Design, Model, Analysis Test Instruments, Meters, Data Loggers In addition to voting in any of the 11 categories, readers also are asked to cast a separate vote for Most Valuable Product among all of this year’s Product of the Year finalists. This year marks the 4th Annual Product of the Year Awards, with more entrants than ever. As in the past, CSE convened a panel of consulting engineers as judges to determine the finalists. Our judges determined three finalists in each category. We now ask you, our readers, to evaluate the contestants in the pages that follow. Then, go to www.csemag.com/votepoy and vote for the products you feel are the best in any categories, and for the product you think is the overall winner—Most Valuable Product. CSE will publish the results in the September issue. IP BAS controllers Xenta 700 series of IP controllers from TAC directly connects to the Ethernet network in any building. The controllers communicate on standard IP networks and are accessible via standard Web browsers, which offer operators instant access to correct all malfunctions that keep the indoor climate functioning efficiently. Using standard protocols on the IP network, such as HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP, installation is available to all networks with low bandwidth usage. The controller can work as a standalone unit for local operation, function with a number of controllers for several buildings, or connect to an enterprise-wide system. www.tac.com/us 8 M AY 2008 Specifiers Guide • Consulting-Specifying Engineer http://www.csemag.com/votepoy http://www.webstathoneywell.com http://www.usa.siemens.com/wireless http://www.csemag.com/votepoy http://www.tac.com/us
