Easily Integrate Air Conditioners into BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RTU with Intesis

Intesis Universal IR Interface - One Platform, Two Solutions

The Intesis Universal IR interface enables the complete and natural integration of any indoor Air Conditioning unit with an infrared receiver into Modbus RTU or BACnet MS/TP systems.

It is unique!

The Intesis Universal IR Interface is the only solution on the market that is able to integrate with any AC unit with an IR receiver!

It is also perfect for retro-fitting or bringing older projects up to a new standard, and can open opportunities for existing customers who previously wouldn't have had any option except to refit a new AC unit. Now you can make their exisiting AC unit integrate with a new or existing BMS for monitoring and control with this Intesis Interface.
