Integrated Controllers for High‑Performance Chiller Plant Optimization
Chiller Plant Optimization
Carrier chiller controllers deliver optimized, coordinated control of chilled water plants to improve energy efficiency, reliability, and system performance. Designed to integrate chillers, pumps, and cooling towers into a single, intelligent control strategy, these factory-engineered solutions support advanced sequencing, plant optimization, and real-time visibility through the i‑Vu® building automation system—helping building owners reduce operating costs and maintain consistent comfort across a wide range of chiller plant configurations.
ChillerVu™ Plant Controller
The ChillerVu Plant Controller is a factory-engineered, cutting-edge control solution that offers algorithms designed to provide optimized control over all aspects of a chiller plant, coordinating the control of chillers, pumps and towers into a finely tuned, cohesive system. The solution consists of a dedicated chiller plant controller, I/O expanders, and a library of factory-engineered control programs that are specifically designed to cover the most common chiller plant configurations.
ChillerVu™ Chilled Water System Optimizer
The ChillerVu Chilled Water System Optimizer’s patent pending control algorithm minimizes the energy use of an entire chilled water system, while integrated dashboards inside the i-Vu® system provide immediate, actionable insight on how it is improving building efficiency. Energy savings in the range of 3% to over 20% [1] are possible, as compared to nonoptimized systems.
[1] The Optimizer algorithm was evaluated using computer driven modeling and simulations, and at field test sites. Actual savings will vary based on local climate zone, local weather conditions, building type and envelope performance, operating schedules, air-side HVAC system type, chiller type, baseline control strategy, and other variables.
