Description
The Maplef Energy FIT System measures energy usage while monitoring coil performance to adjust a PICV to- optimize coil performance. The PICV maintains the correct flow despite pressure changes and guarantees the flow and actuator position only change when demand requirements change or ΔT is outside of specification. The pressure sensors measure upstream and downstream pressure allowing the BMS to reduce system pressure to save pump energy when pressure drop is higher than the PICV’s requirements. The Maplef Intelligent Interface calculates the BTU and displays the data via Bluetooth® on an Android or iPhone mobile device or sends it back to the BMS via BACnet communications. The Maplef Energy FIT System is fully customizable and allows selection of components that work best to optimize the application’s unique energy goals.
