Honeywell has expanded its Spyder® family of controllers with the addition of BACnet® models. The company says the new BACnet models offer powerful functionality and are sized for variable air volume (VAV) and unitary applications. The BACnet protocol provides openness and ability to use the controller with other devices or as stand-alone systems. The controllers are said to offer significant cost savings compared to proprietary systems and offer the flexibility to control and monitor any building automation process.
