Innovating since 1920

Open Design for Maximum Flexibility

Saia programmable control devices (PCD) provide modular automation stations, open programming standards and backward compatibility. Our design capabilities help reduce vendor lock-in and costly proprietary software licensing.

  • Flexible, open programmable logic controllers (PLCs)

    Programmable automation controllers combine PLC reliability with integrated web and IT capabilities. Quality standards support building systems and infrastructure control with one unified platform.

  • Automation that works across environments

    SBC technologies offer flexible products that provide automation architecture that performs across a variety of environments, giving users broad adaptability and capabilities. 

  • Modular, scalable automation architecture

    System architecture supports easy upgrades throughout project lifecycles. Add modules, update firmware or integrate new protocols without replacing existing equipment. 

  • Energy monitoring and performance insights

    Monitor energy consumption and maintain visibility into performance to help reduce costs and improve performance across your most important applications.

  • System integrator and OEM partnership model

    Our component supplier approach supports system integrators and OEMs rather than competing with end users. The Catalyst Partner Program provides technical training, design tools and growth support.

  • Redundancy options for mission-critical operations

    Dual controller configurations help support applications requiring continuous uptime. Hot standby and load balancing architectures help maintain operations during maintenance or component failures.

Saia Burgess Controls Frequently Asked Questions

Saia PCD platforms are engineered around open standards while maintaining compatibility with proprietary protocols. Native support for BACnet, Modbus, LONWORKS® and other standard interfaces allows integration with existing building systems. 

Gateway modules connect legacy equipment without requiring replacement. This flexibility lets system integrators design solutions using preferred protocols and components.

SBC solutions are used in building automation for HVAC control, lighting management and energy monitoring. Infrastructure applications include water treatment plants, tunnel ventilation and district heating systems. The modular architecture adapts to applications ranging from single-room controllers to campus-wide building management systems.

Unlike closed building management systems, SBC provides component-level products that system integrators program and configure for specific customer requirements. The Saia PG5 Controls Suite includes application programming tools, web page editors and visualization software. Standard programming languages and open communication protocols allow customization without vendor dependencies. This approach supports long-term system maintenance and future expansion.

SBC provides component-level products rather than closed turnkey systems. System integrators use Saia PG5 Controls Suite to program and configure Saia PCD devices for specific customer requirements without licensing fees after initial purchase.
