Intelligent chilled water optimization for maximum plant efficiency and performance
The TruVu™ ChillerVu™ Chilled Water System Optimizer (TV‑OPT) enhances chiller plant operation through advanced setpoint optimization, intelligent learning algorithms, and seamless integration with the Carrier i‑Vu® Building Automation System.
The TruVu Chilled Water System Optimizer is a sophisticated, scalable, native BACnet optimization solution for chilled water plants. The TV-OPT minimizes the energy use of the entire chilled water system, up to and including airside equipment.
The factory-engineered control program is designed to provide advanced chilled water and condenser water setpoint reset, managing the plant chilled water supply temperature and the condenser water supply temperature to provide optimal energy usage while assuring occupant comfort in the building.
The TV-OPT provides seamless integration with the ChillerVu Plant System Manager and is compatible with plants consisting of Carrier 19, 23, or 30 series chillers (air or water-cooled). The system can also be applied to plants featuring third party equipment and controllers, providing the same optimization benefits as are possible with Carrier based plants. An integrated dashboard is also included, providing actionable intelligence to facilities staff, along with real time monitoring of the overall efficiency of the chilled water system, from anywhere at any time using the i-Vu building automation system.
