Thenew airport features a 1 million-square meters terminal building which makes itthe largest single-structure airport terminal in the world. It isexpected to handle up to 45 million passengers per year by 2021 and will reachan incredible 100 million in the future.

Siemenswas part of the construction from the very first day.

Siemens’ smart infrastructuresolutions, including intelligent building technologies and reliable low andmedium-voltage products, help ensure efficient and safe operations at BeijingDaxing International Airport.

“After fully understandingwhat our customers required, we precisely calculated the system capacity andquantity of facilities to provide reliable andcomprehensive solutions for them,” said Wang Tao, Beijing Office Manager ofBuilding Products, Smart Infrastructure, Siemens China. “We are committed tobuilding a comfortable, energy-efficient, sustainable and safe environment forthe airport.”

Siemens not only supplied Industrialtechnologies like our programmable logic controller and switches, but we alsoprovided high-voltage motors and converters to drive power to the aviation fuelpipeline connecting Tianjin harbor and the airport.

To make passengers feelcomfortable an airport needs the right natural lighting. Siemens created the perfectlighting atmosphere withour smartlighting systems, which integrated thousands of lighting devices. The devices arecapable of automatically controlling lighting of multiple areas, including theterminal, transfer centers, and the parking building. They can automaticallyadjust the brightness according to passenger flow.

Where there is no power thereis no light. This is why Siemens products enable a stable power supply through lowand medium-voltage products. As an indispensable part of power transmission anddistribution, all of these facilities are widely distributed throughout thewhole complex, covering the terminal, the parking building, security centers,police stations as well as working areas.

Li Ming, Senior Sales Managerof Smart Infrastructure, Siemens China, said: “Our reliable low andmedium-voltage products can deal with all complicated situations andconsequently, have won the customers’ appreciation.”

The construction of BeijingDaxing International Airport was beyond doubt a complex and systematic project.Therefore, in 2015, Siemens sales and engineers begun to exchange ideas withthe customers in a bid to develop sophisticated solutions based on their needs.

Li Yifei, Sales of SmartInfrastructure, Siemens China, reflected the times when she worked alongsidethe customers, “in accordance with the highest international standards, the newairport has strict requirements regarding reliability and stability of allproducts. My team always kept in thorough communication with the relevantdesigning institutes to ensure accuracy in every detail.”
