Everything under one roof

Heating technology is a key factor in ensuring comfort within a building. It plays a crucial role in making sure that employees find their workplace and residents find their living spaces comfortable.

The requirements for heating technology have changed significantly in recent years. Stringent demands regarding energy efficiency, reduction of CO₂ emissions, legal requirements such as the Building Energy Act (GEG), and the need to lower heating costs while simultaneously meeting growing expectations for user comfort have led to the development of a wide range of innovative technologies. 

LIEBERT designs innovative and customized heating systems:

• Gas and oil boiler systems
• Wood chip and pellet boiler systems
• Biogas systems
• Combined heat and power plants
• Heat pump systems
• Solar systems
• Geothermal energy utilization, including for industrial and large-scale projects
• Local and district heating concepts
• Steam supply systems
• Local heating concepts using wells and decentralized heat pumps
• Heat recovery systems
• Geothermal systems for heating and cooling

The IT infrastructure and equipment in a data center require a different HVAC solution than employees in an open-plan office, doctors in a hospital, or industrial processes. In the first step, it is therefore the task of our planners to analyze and understand these different requirements in order to develop a customized solution for the specific climate control needs of your project. For this reason, we also refer to process technology as a complement to building services and implement exactly the customized solution that meets the needs of your facility.

A sustainable energy supply can only be achieved by increasing the share of renewable energy sources in the energy mix while ensuring that conversion processes are as efficient as possible. To accomplish this, it is not only necessary to develop new technologies but also to integrate them into the corresponding modified processes. New equipment and systems must be deployed that better meet the criteria of energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources than existing technology.

User comfort and operational reliability also play a major role. For example, lighting can significantly alter the mood and working atmosphere in a room. We support you in meeting a wide variety of requirements through planning and construction management for renovation projects and new buildings with:

• IT networks, including active components
• BUS systems
• Photovoltaic systems
• CHP systems
• Electric mobility

Lighting simulations

When daylight and artificial light interact, the optimal lighting solution for a given situation can only be determined through lighting simulations. Using virtual models, we present the results in a realistic manner, allowing us to assess the visual appearance and lighting effects. Simulating natural and artificial lighting provides planning certainty and enables cost-effective and efficient lighting concepts. For lighting simulations, we use the Dialux and Relux systems. Our services in detail are:

• Evaluation of daylighting concepts
• Preliminary assessment of daylight potential based on solar radiation data and building geometry
• 3-D visualization of lighting effects
• Schematic representation of light distribution in the floor plan
• Photorealistic rendering of rooms and luminaires
• Selection and evaluation of daylighting system components
• Consulting and evaluation regarding workstation layout
• Forecast and evaluation of daylight autonomy, i.e., the proportion of operating time during which artificial lighting is not required
• Selection and evaluation of artificial lighting operation
• Forecasting and evaluation of user comfort based on statistics of illuminance and luminance levels
• Forecasting and evaluation of annual glare behavior for offices, shading devices, or facade systems (dynamic calculation)

Advantages

• Early prevention of planning errors through realistic visualizations
• Improvement of visual comfort
• Evaluation of energy savings through daylight utilization
• Visualization of the room’s appearance
• Prevention of glare
• Optimization of daylight control

When it comes to getting people and goods from point A to point B within a building or facility as quickly, comfortably, and cost-effectively as possible, effectiveness and efficiency remain our primary goals. Our solutions in this area include:

• Escalators
• Elevators
• Conveyor belts
• Facade cleaning systems

To ensure we can perfectly meet individual requirements, we hold a detailed consultation with the customer before beginning any planning. This is the only way we can understand their processes and select the right technology for the job. We plan and implement:

• Kitchen technology
• Cold storage technology
• Media technology
• Laboratory technology
• Gases
• Compressed air
• Vacuum supply
• Special media
• Ink supply systems for the printing industry

Depending on the requirements, we also involve partner firms in the planning of specialized, user-specific systems, such as those for commercial kitchens, cold storage rooms, media facilities, laboratories, or cleanroom systems.

Government regulations for fire safety are becoming increasingly stringent to prevent fires and ensure that no one is harmed in the event of a fire. We have the expertise needed for the professional planning and implementation of fire suppression systems and fire safety measures—whether using water, gas, or other media. To ensure targeted prevention and effective response, we offer:

• Sprinkler systems
• Gas extinguishing systems
• Semi-permanent fire suppression systems
• Oxygen reduction systems for high-bay warehouses
• High-pressure mist suppression systems

Building automation serves as the central nervous system of a building. It connects, controls, and optimizes all systems, components, and trades. Our building services concepts include the design and implementation of control and regulation processes that are user-friendly, easy to operate, and flexible in application. This includes:

• Control, regulation, and monitoring of all building services systems

In many industries, production and other processes require a supply of specific media. We have extensive expertise in MVE technology gained from a wide range of projects.

• Compressed Air Supply
• Vacuum and blown air supply
• Gases
• Ink supply systems for the printing industry
• After-combustion systems for contaminated exhaust air
• Ethanol supply
• Toluene supply
• Chemical supply systems for electroplating

Compressed air supply systems, for example, are important and energy-intensive components of the manufacturing industry. Like power grids, they drive turbines, various machines, and components—such as gripper arms—in places where the use of electric motors is not practical. We have many years of experience with compressed air energy as well as the inspection and optimization of compressed air systems.

Vacuum and blown air supply is a frequent concern in the printing industry. Centralizing the blown air and vacuum supply typically results in significant energy savings, which positively impacts operating costs and competitiveness. After assessing all parameters on-site, we would be happy to provide you with a proposal for a modern blown air supply system.

Thermal after-combustion systems are used to clean exhaust air with high concentrations of pollutants. These pollutants are generated particularly during printing, laminating, and impregnation.
