CoSponsor: 7.9 Building Commissioning
Preparing equipment and assemblies for final check-out verification, start-up procedure and proper operation requires a coordinated activity of testing, adjusting, measurement and documentation that will ensure a successful result. This session describes how the commissioning process would be applied to achieve a successful chilled water plant operation needed to comply with the owner's project requirement and the design documents.
1 Commissioning Chilled Water and Condenser Water Pumps
The commissioning process for a central chiller plant includes full analysis of the plant's chilled water and condenser water pumps. This includes a verification of pump capacities and proper installation, plus confirming they are started, tested, and balanced for design operating condition. This presentation includes the steps needed to ensure the pumps are fully commissioned to meet the Owner's Project Requirements and perform as designed.
2 Commissioning a Cooling Tower
The commissioning process for a central chiller plant includes full analysis of the plant's condensing water cooling tower. This includes a verification of unit capacity and proper installation, plus confirming it is started, tested, and balanced for design operating condition. This presentation includes the steps needed to ensure the cooling tower is fully commissioned to meet the Owner's Project Requirements and perform as designed.
3 Commissioning a Water-Cooled Chiller
The commissioning process for a central chiller plant includes full analysis of the plant's fluid chilling unit. This includes a verification of unit capacity and proper installation, plus confirming it is started, tested, and balanced for design operating condition. This presentation includes the steps needed to ensure the fluid chiller is fully commissioned to meet the Owner's Project Requirements and perform as designed.
