Equipment Summary

 Be Careful That High Performance Equipment Can Pay For Itself  Ask For A Couple Of Selections And Some Budget Pricing

 Understand And Take Advantage Of Chillers Operating Properties

Range Vs. Supply Water Temperature

 Flow (Usgpm) = Load (tons) x 24 / Temp. Range (F)  Increasing Range Reduces Flow  Reduces Pipe, Pump And Motor Size

 Pump Power (hp) = Flow (Usgpm)x Head (ft) / 3960 x Eff. Eff  Reducing Flow Reduces Pump Work  This Is A Good Goal  It Will Affect Every Part Of the Chilled Water System  Everything Must Be Considered

Range Vs. Supply Water Temperature  Fan Work Savings For Small Changes (2 to 4°F) Don’t Save Enough To Offset Chiller Penalty  Especially For VAV  20% Airflow Decrease  35% Static Decrease  49% Power Decrease

 Don’t Lower Supply Water Temperature Just To Save Fanwork  Don’t Lower To Ensure Design Water Temperature Will Be Available At Coil  If You Assume Water Will Be 2°F Warmer At Coil Then You Assume 20% Of Chiller Capacity Lost To Heat Gain!
