MBCx/Analytics Overview
• Using software to acquire and analyze HVAC performance data on a continuous basis
• How is this different than the BAS front end?
• MBCx is a process
• Alarms vs Analytics

• Design• Confirms the performance criteria of the initial
design
• Owner – “We aren’t saving the energy we thought we would!”
• Verification that design worked (or where it didn’t)
• Small step towards data driven designs
MBCx/Analytics Overview

• Building Operations• Reactive vs Predictive Repairs
• Identify and address issues before they become costly failures
• Increased transparency into the building system performance
MBCx/Analytics Overview

• Measurement and Verification• Issues with M&V
• “I don’t have enough data”
• “I don’t have the right data”
• Lengthy and cumbersome process
• Focuses on energy efficiency and struggles on maintenance opportunities
• High initial investment in time, money, and effort to implement tools and technology
• Use MBCx to Support M&V
• Little to no sub metering required
• Continuously tracking and trending much easier

• Energy Efficiency• More in depth than retro-commissioning (RCx)

• BAS System is Open Protocol BACnet
• Example Compatible Systems• Trane Tracer Summit
• Niagara AX
• Niagara N4
• Trane – SC (BACnet) (Trane’s newest)
• Siemens (BACnet)
• Johnson Controls (Metasys with NAE and NCI building level controllers)
• Johnson Controls (BACnet)
• Automated Logic
• Alerton BACtalk
• Delta Controls – ORCA
• Reliable – Third generation MACH-system or later
• Others
• CSV Files/Trends

• Work with IT Department on security and MBCx device setup/communication
• Deploy MBCx software/device on site
• Onsite investigation and information gathering
• Build and customize analytics
• Deliver findings and recommendations
• Refine analytics
• Repeat

• BAS control system is not BACnet (proprietary)
• BAS control system is a local network
• Equipment missing from network
• IT issues/coordination
• Network speed and quality issues
• Data security concerns
• Network device ID conflicts/naming issues
• Inconsistent point names
Common Hurdles
![Page 15: Monitoring-Based Commissioning (MBCx) · Monitoring-Based Commissioning (MBCx) • MBCx/Analytics Overview • MBCx Setup/Timeline • Common Hurdles • Examples • Q+A Outline/Agenda.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071405/60fa0d12dbfc584e684ff498/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Corrective Measures• Terminal Units reheating at a CFM above the reheat
setpoint
• Airflow stations out of calibration
• Improper economizer operation
• Control valves are leaking and heating/cooling when valve is commanded 100% closed
• Minimum airflow fraction is out of calibration
• Excessive cycling
• Improvement Measures• Temperature and pressure reset sequences
• Identify critical zones and use to tune sequences and setpoints
• Demand control ventilation
