Building automation control loops: The theory
Learn the basics of one of the most essential concepts in building automation: controlling outputs with control loops.
Regular equipment rotation is more than a routine; it’s essential to keeping your HVAC equipment operating efficiently, saving your money and keeping your occupants safe.
Choosing an appropriate equipment rotation strategy depends on a range of factors. For example, a strategy based on equipment runtime ensures all components in your system age equally. Rotating based on a specific date or time ensures operators are available and can accurately predict when a switchover occurs. Both strategies are effective and can even be combined to create a third that builds on the strengths of each.
Creating a solid, well-understood equipment rotation strategy is the first step in increasing engineering efficiency. In this video, Reliable Controls application engineering manager Eric Rehn demystifies equipment rotation and explores effective programming examples.
