Carrier i-Vu® 11 Simplifies Building Operations and Supports More Proactive System Management

Carrier today announced i-Vu® 11, the latest release of its building automation system. The release includes enhancements designed to simplify day-to-day building operations and help Carrier HVAC equipment and controls work as one coordinated system. These capabilities can support more connected, data-informed and proactive building operations. Carrier is part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), a global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions. 

The i-Vu system brings Carrier equipment, controls and operational data into a browser-based platform that helps facility teams monitor building conditions, investigate issues and manage HVAC operations. Pre-engineered control programs and auto-generated equipment graphics support an integrated equipment-and-controls approach, helping customers view and manage supported HVAC equipment and controls through a coordinated system. 

“i-Vu 11 is designed to make day-to-day building operations simpler while helping customers prepare for more connected and proactive operations,” said Dominic Eorio, Sales Director, Carrier Controls. “By bringing supported Carrier equipment and controls together, we can give facility teams clearer operational visibility and more efficient tools for investigating issues.” 

Outcomes That Matter 

• Navigate Building Systems in a New Way: New i-Vu Traverse™ provides an intuitive, relationship-based view of building systems, helping operators follow equipment connections, retrace troubleshooting steps and get to the source of issues faster. 
• Keep Attention on Priority Alarms: Alarm bulk actions and temporary alarm-action suppression give authorized operators tools to manage alarm volume while an issue is being addressed. These features can help teams focus their review on active priority alarms. 
• Coordinate Equipment and Controls: Pre-engineered Carrier control programs, auto-generated equipment graphics and updated equipment application libraries are designed to support coordinated operation of compatible Carrier HVAC equipment and controls. This integrated approach can simplify system start-up, day-to-day management and visibility across supported equipment and controls. 
• Manage Access and Operational Events: Operator search, operator duplication and reusable privilege sets are designed to help authorized administrators establish and maintain system access as staff and responsibilities change. Security audit-log filtering can narrow reviews by activity type. For i-Vu Pro systems, syslog integration also enables selected application events to be shared with compatible IT monitoring tools. 
• Support More Proactive Operations: Predictive Insights for i-Vu, powered by Carrier Abound, is an optional package that analyzes available system data to surface potential equipment issues and operational inefficiencies for facilities teams to review. The insights can support earlier investigation and more proactive maintenance decisions. Results vary based on system configuration, data availability and quality, equipment condition, maintenance practices and operating conditions. 
• Support Current Building Automation Standards: As a BACnet Operator Workstation (OWS), i-Vu 11 is designed to support BACnet Protocol Revision 24 while continuing to support generations of Carrier controllers. These capabilities can help customers plan system modernization while preserving support for compatible Carrier controls.
