Session description

As industrial systems evolve, the question is no longer whether to apply AI—but where and how to do it without compromising reliability, safety, or control integrity.
This keynote presents a practical, scalable architecture that brings AI into the machine room without replacing the existing core and mission-critical control layer. At the foundation are UniSAB 4 controllers, installed on every chiller, heat pump, or compressor. These controllers ensure operational safety, optimize unit performance, and leverage built-in load-sharing capabilities to minimize energy consumption at the edge.
On top of this, a hybrid AI layer—residing at the edge and in the cloud —continuously learning from real-time machine room operations and incorporating external signals to ...
