Strategic involvement in the further development of the KNX standard

With the election of Managing Director Bastian Elsner to the Executive Board (KEB), Elsner Elektronik is now represented in the strategic leadership body of the KNX Association.

The Executive Board is the strategic governing body of the KNX Association. It defines the guiding principles for the further development of the standard, sets priorities in technological matters and oversees key decisions regarding the international direction and cooperation of manufacturers.

“KNX has accompanied us for many years – both technologically and entrepreneurially. I am grateful for the trust placed in me and look forward to working with the newly elected Board,” says Bastian Elsner.

Looking ahead to the upcoming tasks, he adds: “One key focus will be on further simplifying the application and reducing barriers to entry. This also includes advancing ETS and making the standard more broadly accessible. At the same time, technical robustness remains a fundamental priority.”

With its representation on the Executive Board, Elsner Elektronik underlines its long-standing commitment to the KNX standard and its role as an active partner within the international KNX network.

Legal guarantee

Harmonised EU legal guarantee notice

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
