What is EnOcean
EnOcean uses a patented energy harvesting wireless technology for use in building automation, Smart Home and Internet of Things.
EnOcean devices combine micro energy converters with ultra-low power electronics, and enable wireless communications between battery-less wireless sensors, battery-less switches, mains powered actuators and central gateways / controllers.
The technology empowers a wide array of devices from various vendors, all offering simple, proven and maintenance-free solutions to meet your Home Automation requirements.
Compatibility and interoperability between EnOcean devices is ensured by the EnOcean Alliance. Formed in 2008 by many of the largest manufacturers of EnOcean equipment it quickly ratified several EEPs (EnOcean Equipment Profiles) along with the lower levels of the wireless standard used. More than 250 companies currently belong to the EnOcean Alliance and the technology has enjoyed huge growth in the past 5 years.
Features such as true plug & play operation, reduced energy consumption and maximum flexibility due to battery-less, wire-free wall switches come together to make EnOcean an excellent choice when it comes to retro-fitting your Smart Home.
