The First Step...

s u s t a i n a b I l I t y

If one chiller is fault, remain 50% load ?

Chiller must be off 2 compressor when it is serviced, proper evacuation of a refrigeration system is practically impossible with active chilled-water flow

s u s t a i n a b I l I t y

The Next Step...

s u s t a i n a b I l I t y

Evaluated Pumping Systems

Primary/Secondary System Variable Primary Flow System

Conclusion: VPF proves best life cycle value

Fewer pumps Reduced plumbing connections Reduced electrical connections Slight Increase in VFD costs Greatly reduced pump operating costs

s u s t a i n a b I l I t y

The 3th Step...

Use Low Flow, Low Temperature, High Efficiency Systems

Earthwise can help the owner not only reduce first cost, it is also saving operating cost

Conclusion
Use Earthwise concept help the owner saving both first and operating cost Remember that the meter is on the building, not on the chiller The first cost saving is not account the reduction of piping, valve. Use the innovative chiller plant control for optimal HVAC system Tranes solution can help your building greener
