VAV Damper Performance

Objective/ Method/Outcome

Objective: Determines VAV damper performance metrics.

Method: The Daily Average Damper Position and Daily Maximum Damper Position are calculated based on the VAV damper position trendlog and Calculated Trend Logs (CTLs) are output.

Outcome: This rule generates CTLs.

Description

This rule calculates the maximum and average damper position for each VAV daily during occupied schedule.

This rule is part of the CopperTree Standard rule-set. (Aliased Celsius / Aliased Fahrenheit)

Default Priority

Low

Diagnosis

N/A

Message

In occupied schedule, VAV daily average damper position and maximum position are calculated.

Rule Template

Insight Type: Integrity KPI

Trigger Type: Active High

Notes

1. Expected values for “Schedule” inputs are “0” or “1”.

2. Used for Managed Services purposes. Generate a chart/report to visualize VAV damper performances.

3. Suggest grouping the dampers into their own subgroups such as: under which AHU serves a group of VAVs and/or grouping the VAVs per floor.

CTLs:

Daily Average Damper Position [%]

Daily Maximum Damper Position [%]
