Annual saving in utility expense
HVAC failures
ROI
A 12-week test was conducted across three multi-ton units (two 25-ton units and one 30-ton unit for a 30,000 square foot facility) provided data and diagnostics on a range of HVAC functions:
Refrigerant problems
Economy efficacy
Compressor damage, under performance and overtaxing
Condensor fan motor failures
All three units operated 24 x 7, average age of units was 3 years
Refrigerant problems found in two units
Economizers were set incorrectly or failed
Compressor damage due to operating while outdoor temperatures were 60F or below
One compressor was underperforming while other two were over taxed
One compressor started and stopped every three-minutes causing permanent damage
One failed condenser fan motor
After addressing the uncovered mechanical and performance problems, the HVAC units are expected to each their 15-year life expectancy. Talos delivered a significant savings and a quick ROI.
A circuit shorted out and tripped a main break on a 30-ton unit at a manufacturing facility. Talos immediately sent an alert that a critical unit had a problem. The third shift maintenance team was able to repair it before the start of the new work day and there was no loss of product or costly downtime.
The facility manage slept soundly and arrive to find everything in order. After addressing the uncovered mechanical by continuous monitoring, unit is to reach its 15-year life expectancy. Talos delivered a significant savings and a quick ROI.
