Armstrong announces factory service plan
As seen on mechanical-hub.com February 06, 2014 Toronto — Armstrong Fluid Technology announced the introduction of its Factory Service Plan for IPC chiller plant automation systems. As products have become increasingly intelligent incorporating embedded controls, the skillset required to provide proper service becomes less generic and more dependent on factory-trained and qualified resources. Key aspects of the Factory Service Plan include: inspection and review of key components, assessment of operation conditions, control system tuning, software upgrades as they are released, back-up and secure storage of parameters and settings, and annual training for the Building Operators.

Armstrong Fluid Technology has unveiled an innovative pump selection software program that is completely intuitive, easy-to-use, highly visual, and provides an excellent user experience on multiple devices and platforms. Based on extensive Voice-of-the-Customer research, ADEPT makes it easy for users to select a wide range of equipment as well as organize schedules, and source submittals, and specifications.
Intuitive screen designs allow users to view line drawings, multi-curves, photos, voltage, motor size, inlets, outlets, accessories, seal operating limits, seal options, construction options and more than a dozen motor options. ADEPT then lists the pumps that meet the users’ specific criteria, as well as the key characteristics of each selection – such as ‘efficiency at average load’, ‘operating costs’ and ‘motor size’.

Armstrong OPTI-VISOR controls the key components of a chiller plant, providing the optimal operating settings for equipment such as water-cooled variable speed chillers, variable flow cooling towers, and variable speed pumps on the chilled water and tower water circuits. Armstrong OPTI-VISOR is a relational control solution for the operation of an all-variable-speed chiller plant. OPTI-VISOR is an excellent solution for retrofit in buildings with water-cooled chiller plants, including those less than five years old, but is also suitable for new construction applications involving variable-primary flow chiller plants that have advanced building automation systems (BAS).

Deep Lake Water Cooling Provides Alternative to Conventional System
As seen in pump-zone.com - January 1, 2014
VIL pumps and design envelope technology reduce energy use and cool Toronto’s downtown.
By Brent Ross, Armstrong Fluid Technology
Deep lake water cooling (DLWC) is a groundbreaking cooling system that provides an alternative to conventional air conditioning. The system uses cold water from Lake Ontario to cool buildings in Toronto’s downtown core. The DLWC system has enough capacity to cool 3 million square meters (32 million square feet) of building space and is the largest renewable, lake-source cooling system of its kind in North America.
