BMS integration and maintenance simplified with the Wattsense Bridge
Automation engineers search for the fastest and most cost-effective way to integrate Building Management Systems (BMS) and communicate with different types of building equipment. The objective is to install, manage, and maintain automation systems used in industrial, residential, and commercial facilities. Property owners, facility managers, and integration companies, among other real estate players, are challenged to reduce cost and project duration.
Engineers in the integration sector also need solutions to locally process data independently from the Cloud. That is why Wattsense is rethinking the traditional process of integrating buildings and is introducing its Hub offer as an on-premises version of the Wattsense Tower.
What is the Bridge?
The Wattsense Bridge is a universal connector for BMS that stands out from traditional gateways for its quick installation, advanced features, and versatility. Designed and manufactured in France, the Bridge can communicate with different protocols, whether they are open or proprietary.
Advantages of the Wattsense Bridge :
User Console
The console is designed with the target user in mind as a way to guarantee intuitive and clear user navigation.
Configuration Wizard
So easy and quick to install that anyone can do the job. Users can connect field devices in just a few clicks.
BACnet Server and universal smart converter
A simple, interoperable, standard way to forward field data coming from different devices to a BMS. The BACnet server scans every data point coming from any communication protocol and can be seen and shared through our user console quickly and efficiently.
Integrated into the system

On-site access
The Wattsnese Bridge can be used in projects where the internet connection is not permitted, such as government buildings, data centers, etc.

A product for BMS integration
Installing or upgrading Building Management Systems is an expensive and challenging task due to the complexity of communication protocols and a lack of smart devices to ease integration and decrease the time spent on job sites and trips.
The Wattsense Hub feature offers a budget-friendly route to scalability by giving companies flexibility and control to expand their services and reduce installation time and operational costs. This flexibility gives users the opportunity to adapt quickly to the evolving property maintenance sector.
