Chiller-Tower Optimization

Features and Benefits

Communication capabilities: several communication levels are provided:

local, through a PC workstation keyboard. Summit can be programmed to send messages to local or remote workstations and or a pager in the following cases:

Analog parameter exceeding a programmed value.

Maintenance warning.

Component failure alarm.

Critical alarm messages. In this latter case, the message is displayed until the operator acknowledges the receipt of the information. From the remote station it is also possible to access and modify the chiller plant’s control parameters.

Remote communication through a modem: As an option, a modem can be connected to communicate the plant operation parameters through voice grade phone lines.

The remote terminal is a PC workstation equipped with a modem and software to display the remote plant parameters.

Chiller-Tower Optimization

Tracer Summitchiller-tower optimization extends Adaptive Controlto the rest of the chiller plant. Chiller- tower optimization is a unique control algorithm for managing the chiller and cooling-tower subsystem. It considers the chiller load and real-time ambient conditions, then optimizes the tower setpoint temperature to maximize the efficiency of the subsystem.

Integrated ComfortSystem (ICS) The onboardTracer chiller controller is designed to be able to communicate with a wide range of building automation systems.To take full advantage of the capabilities of the chiller, incorporate your chiller into a Tracer Summit building automation system.

But the benefits do not stop at the chiller plant. AtTrane, we realize that all energy used in your cooling system is important. That is why we worked closely with other equipment manufacturers to predict the energy required by the entire system. We used this information to create patented control logic for optimizing the HVAC system efficiency.

The building owner’s challenge is to tie components and applications expertise into a single reliable system that provides maximum comfort, control and efficiency. Trane’s Integrated Comfortsystems (ICS) are a concept that combines system components, controls and engineering applications expertise into a single, logical and efficient system. These advanced controls are fully commissioned and available on every piece ofTrane equipment, from the largest chiller to the smallest VAV box. As a manufacturer, onlyTrane offers this universe of equipment, controls and factory installation and verification.
