Tracer Summit controls — Interface With The Trane Integrated Comfort System (ICS)

Trane Chiller Plant Control

The Tracer Summit Chiller Plant Building Management System with Chiller Plant Control provides building automation and energy management functions through stand-alone control. The Chiller Plant Control is capable of monitoring and controlling your entire chiller plant system.

Application software available:

•Time-of-day scheduling

•Demand limiting

•Chiller sequencing

•Process control language

•Boolean processing

•Zone control

•Reports and logs

•Custom messages

•Run time and maintenance

•Trend log

•PID control loops

And of course, the Trane Chiller Plant Control can be used on a stand-alone basis or tied into a complete building automation system.

When the scroll CGWF chiller is used in conjunction with a Trane Tracer™ Summit system, the unit can be monitored and controlled from a remote location. The chiller can be controlled to fit into the overall building automation strategy by using time of day scheduling, timed override, demand limiting, and chiller sequencing. A building owner can completely monitor the chiller from the Tracer system, since all of the monitoring information indicated on the unit controller’s microcomputer can be read off the Tracer system display. In addition, all the powerful diagnostic information can be read back at the Tracer system. Best of all, this powerful capability comes over a single twisted pair of wires! The scroll liquid chillers can interface with many different external control systems, from simple stand-alone units to ice making systems.

A single twisted pair of wires tied directly between the CGWF chiller and a Tracer™ Summit system provides control, monitoring and diagnostic capabilities. Control functions include auto/stop, adjustment of leaving water temperature setpoint, compressor operation lockout for kW demand limiting and control of ice making mode. The Tracer system reads monitoring information such as entering and leaving evaporator water temperatures and outdoor air temperature. Over 60 individual diagnostic codes can be read by the Tracer system. In addition, the Tracer system can provide sequencing control for up to 25 units on the same chilled water loop. Pump sequencing control can be provided from the Tracer system. Tracer ICS is not available in conjunction the external setpoint capability.
