Building system with flexible facility operation
A building system for a building including one or more storage devices storing instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to operate one or more pieces of building equipment associated with a building space based on a first operating mode. The instructions cause the one or more processors to receive an indication to update operation of the building space based on an emergency situation and responsive to receiving the indication to update operation of the building space based on the emergency situation, operate the one or more pieces of building equipment based on a second operating mode, wherein the second operating mode defines one or more second parameters for the one or more pieces of building equipment and is adapted to reconfigure the operation of the building space to address or mitigate the emergency situation.

EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT SCREEN GENERATING METHOD
A display displays an equipment management screen in which icons indicating equipment devices and having a first display size are superimposed on a floor configuration diagram of a building at positions corresponding to installation sites of the equipment devices. A display information generator, upon detection of an operation of specifying display of a group to which the equipment device corresponding to the operated icon belongs, identifies all equipment devices belonging to the specified group, changes display sizes of icons corresponding to the identified equipment devices to a second display size larger than the first display size, displays operation buttons for implementing settings of the identified equipment devices at prescribed positions on the equipment management screen in a superimposed manner, and changes display sizes of icons corresponding to equipment devices not belonging to the specified group to a third display size smaller than the first display size.
AIR CLEANER
An air cleaner is provided that may include a case including a first suction inlet, the case having a cylindrical or cone shape; a fan housing provided inside of the case, the fan housing accommodating a fan therein; a filter provided at a suction side of the fan, the filter filtering foreign materials in air which is suctioned through the first suction inlet; and a housing suction flow path formed between an outer surface of the fan housing and an inner surface of the case, the housing suction flow path allowing air which is suctioned through the first suction inlet to flow toward and through the filter. The housing suction flow path may include a first flow path inlet having a predetermined first width, and a second flow path inlet through which air having passed through the first flow path inlet flows, the second flow path inlet having a second width greater than the first width.
