Tracer Summit - Trane Integrated
Comfort System (ICS)
The Tracer Summit Building Management
System with Chiller Control provides
building automation and energy
management functions using independent
control. The Chiller Control is able to
monitor and control the complete installed
chiller system.
Available applications:
. Time programmer;
. Demand limiter
. Chiller sequencing
. Process control language.
. Boolean processing.
. Ambient controllers
. Reports and logs
. Personalized messages
. Operating and maintenance time
. Trend log
. PID control loop
Of course, Trane Chiller Control can also
be used independently or in conjunction
with a complete building automation
system.
When one or more chillers are used with a
Tracer Summit system from Trane, the
units can be monitored and controlled
from a remote location.
The chillers can fit into a global building
automation strategy by using scheduling,
programmed changes, demand limiting
and chiller sequencing.
The owner of an establishment or building
can monitor the chiller fully from the Tracer
system, as all the monitoring information
shown on the unit controller can be read
from the Tracer system display.
Furthermore, all the diagnostic information
can be read in the tracer system. Best of
all, these powerful features are achieved
with only one twisted pair of wires. The
chillers can interface to a range of external
control systems, from simple independent
units to ice making systems.
A single twisted pair of wires connected
directly between the chiller and a Tracer
Summit system provides control,
monitoring and diagnostic capabilities.
Control functions include switch on/ switch
off, adjustment of the leaving water
temperature setpoint, blocking compres-
sor operation for demand limiting and
control of ice making mode. The Tracer
system reads the monitoring information,
such as entering and leaving evaporator
water temperatures and outdoor
temperature. The Tracer system can read
a large number of individual diagnostics
on equipment being controlled/ monitored.
In addition to this, it can provide
sequencing control for up to 25 units on
the same system.
