Protecting Valuable Works of Art at the Luxury Resort

As one of Europe’s leading luxury hotels, the protection of valuable works of art is a top priority in order to offer discerning guests a unique ambience. A new era in the luxury hotel industry was ushered in with a renovation project lasting several months, and the requirements for a modern security solution were correspondingly high.

Security and protection of the valuable paintings, photographs and exhibits have top priority. The main objective was to provide a highly functional and integrable security system that works reliably and efficiently.

The NOX SYSTEMS solution offers comprehensive protection for the hotel’s extensive art collection. The flexibility and versatility of the system were crucial, as the system can be controlled centrally and at the same time customized for every requirement.

The use of NOX TXO for monitoring the paintings made it possible to secure the valuable works of art inconspicuously. By installing the system on the walls and without direct contact with the artworks, the system could be integrated discreetly. This type of installation prevents physical damage to exhibits and guarantees seamless monitoring.

The small system is lightweight and can be used in a variety of ways. Its unique equipment with the finest sensors makes the optical wireless detector a multi-talent. On the one hand, the IR sensor (infrared), which works without contact, is impressive. Secondly, the three-axis acceleration sensor detects every movement, while other highly sensitive and calibrated sensors determine the temperature and humidity values. All data is transmitted by radio – rounded off by LoRa® technology, which ensures interference-resistant communication between transmitters and receivers in addition to the long range. The evaluation is carried out via the NOX control center, which sends the desired alarm accordingly. Thanks to bidirectional communication, the device settings can be made centrally and individually.

The high flexibility, the wide range of applications and the fact that “nothing” has to be attached to the paintings were decisive factors for the luxury hotel in choosing NOX TXO. The modern image surveillance system can also be integrated into the existing alarm and security system without any additional effort.

The project was realized with the installer ES Sicherheit.
