Providing an environment that caters to patient well-being and comfort and running general medical services, places unique demands on energy usage for hospitals and healthcare facilities.
As much as 30% of the energy consumed in hospitals is used unnecessarily.
Considering energy is approximately 50% of a health care facility manager's budget, hospitals can dramatically reduce their operating costs by using energy more efficiently.

ABB Cylon product range offers flexibility in strategy changes and maximized control utilization ideally suited to the changing demands of healthcare facilities. Our Energy Management tool ensures control of energy usage and delivers alerts and alarms to the facility management team when anomalies are detected, allowing facility teams to provide consistency of service while managing energy usage and costs.
As sophisticated needs and extended uptime lead to high energy consumption of most hospitals and clinics, the healthcare sector offers an unparalleled opportunity for facility managers to optimize and increase energy savings.
Ranking 2nd behind the food-service sector, the healthcare industry exceeds typical per-building energy costs of similar building sizes by nearly a factor of 10, with an energy intensity of approximately 250 kBTU or 74 kWh per square foot, nearly three times that of a typical office building.
Whether you are targeting upgrades in an existing system or working to deliver a system-wide solution, ABB Cylon offers the services and products required to meet both the HVAC and energy saving needs of today's healthcare facilities.

Future proof your investment | Seamless Integration
The ABB Cylon solution provides ease of upgrades and the extension of BMS through the gradual replacement of older, outdated, and ineffective BMS systems delivering a more flexible, energy-efficient, and cost-effective solution.
Open System KNX and BACnet (MSTP and IP) field controllers with Modbus (RTU and TCP) extensions
Highly flexible, easily extendable, ABB Cylon also allows for straightforward expansion or upgrades to the BMS that may be required in years to come, future-proofing today's BMS installations.
Real-time monitoring
Reliability & Quality
Quality environmental monitoring in storage settings must be a top priority for hospitals and healthcare providers, everything from medicine and tissue samples to donated blood and food needs to be kept at specific temperature and humidity levels, and a failure to properly monitor storage conditions might cause serious harm to a patient.
Security
Centralized Supervision
Centralized supervision simplifies the management of a hospital campus from main buildings and remotely located clinics. ASPECT centralized supervision and control enhances operational efficiency proving 24/7 web-enabled access to your BMS. Facility management can view and modify information including trends, setpoints, schedules, and more from any web-enabled device anywhere, any time.
User Interface
The ABB Cylon solution enables hospital staff to schedule room occupancy times in advance, maintaining room temperature at a level that is beneficial to a patient's health. If the room is not being used the system can be easily programmed to switch off. Saving on energy and costs whilst guaranteeing the highest level of patient comfort and a healthy recovery environment.
