  10. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process:

  11. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process: The Tune-up Process 1. Test-in – Skilled technician measures and records refrigeration cycle performance and performs a comprehensive maintenance inspection. 2. Unit Repairs – If there are a significant number of dysfunctional refrigeration cycles, units are repaired and upon completion, the tune-up continues. 3. Coil Cleaning – Indoor and outdoor coils are thoroughly cleaned. Utilizing a power washer and appropriate cleaning solution will maximize the effectiveness of the coil cleaning. Technician cleans condensate drains and changes indoor air filters. 4. Refrigerant Charge/Airflow Adjustment – The Performance Audit tool will provide guidance about refrigerant charge and airflow adjustments. Adjustments are made until the tool indicates that the Efficiency Index and Capacity Index measurements are both greater than 90%. 5. If appropriate, Source technician completes economizer tune-up and adjusts changeover setting as indicated by diagnostic tool. 6. Upon successfully completing the Test-In, Coil Cleaning, Charge and Airflow Adjustments and Test-Out, the data is synchronized, preferably from the rooftop or job-site, to the Field Diagnostic database. Post Tune-up Follow-up • With data available on the database, Source can analyze the cycle records for each refrigeration circuit and each unit tested. A suite of reports can be generated for managers and facility owners. • Reports indicating outstanding equipment repairs and upgrade opportunities are also generated.

  12. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process: Return air Dry-bulb temp Wet-bulb temp • 9 measurements with a built-in P-T Chart for • quick calculations, • error-free analysis, and • quick reporting Supply air Dry-bulb temp Wet-bulb temp Ambient temp HVAC Performance Audit Tool Suction line temp (Superheat) Better measurements lead to a higher level of quality of diagnosis. Low-side pressure Liquid line temp (Supercool) High-side pressure

  13. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process: Diagnostic Measurements • Superheat • Sub cooling • Goal values: • The line in the middle of a graph is the goal value for that quantity. In this case the evaporating temperature goal value is 45°F. • Evaporating Temp • Condensing Temp over Ambient • Maximum • acceptable values Minimum acceptable values Impact of Running With Faults Efficiency is a measure of how much power is used to produce a standard amount of refrigeration capacity. The efficiency index (EI) is the ratio of how efficient the unit is currently running as compared to how efficient it would be if all the graphed values were at their goals under the current driving conditions. The driving conditions are the conditions that materially affect the expected operation of the air conditioner. The driving conditions are the ambient temperature and the return air wet bulb temperature. Dollar Savings- The software calculates the dollar value for bringing the “EI” and “CI” to 100. In this case a 10 SEER seven and a half ton unit running 1500 hours a year on 15 cent kilowatts would use $681 in additional energy in a year running as it is now. This is because it is running with 72% efficiency and 84% capacity • Variables used to calculate EI and CI to dollar of savings potential

  14. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process: In-Depth Equipment Management Reporting • System provides efficiency and capacity ratings along with the number of potential compressor failures. Translate this into potential $$$$$ savings! • Example: Store 5525 has $12,000.00 potential compressor savings and $4,000.00 potential energy savings

  15. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM Source Predictive Maintenance process: • HVAC Performance Verification: • Automated Fault Detection & Diagnostics for Refrigeration Cycles • Validate Your Equipment Repair for System Performance • Document Energy Savings • Minimize Compressor Failures • Manage Your Cost and Budgeting effectively • Easy & Effective Reporting • Easily determine the performance of existing HVAC equipment and circuit • Accurately diagnose problems and document the repairs • Reduce Maintenance Costs • Reduce electrical cost • Reduce compressor replacements • Reduce summer overtime repairs • Improve summer indoor temperatures

  16. SOURCE HVAC PM PROGRAM • HVAC Performance Audit Tool is tested and approved to work on virtually any size constant volume equipment with the following configuration: • It must have an air-cooled condenser. • It must have direct expansion evaporators (no chillers for now). • It must have a positive displacement compressor. That is a reciprocating compressor, scroll, or a screw compressor. • It work with all the refrigerants commonly used in comfort cooling including both R22 and R410A. • HVAC Performance Audit Tool is tested and approved for air-to-air space cooling applications, which includes DX air cooled commercial rooftop package units, commercial and residential split systems and heat pumps. Additionally, there is a software application available for working on water cooled units that require accessory entering and leaving condenser water temperature sensors. • HVAC Performance Audit Tool is not approved for use with ductless split systems. • Working on multi-zone equipment, that is equipment with unloaders accessories that vary compressor capacity and Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) that vary the airflow through the unit complicates the analysis.
