#220 Can someone help with gettng the points documented for the following meters

Jason Briggs Fri 17 Oct 2014

We currently have a list of points for certain types of equips like, VAV or AHU. But we don't have a list of points for all of our meters. Can someone in the community try and tackle this, and post it here. We aren't looking for every possible point, just the most important ones. I'm sure someone out there doens't have anything bettr to do this weekend :} Let's also include units

elec meter

power sensor

energy sensor

current sensor

current phase sensor

volt sensor

volt phase sensor

pf sensor

pf phase sensor

freq sensor

gas meter

domestic water meter

chilled water meter

condenser water meter

hot water meter

makeup water meter

blowdown water meter

condensate water meter

steam meter

All of the water meters could have a:

"water flow sensor" with units of gal/min

and an option for a totalizer (which I am not sure we have tags for yet).

blowdown and condensate meters sometimes report temperature compensated flows in lb/hr when used in steam systems.

Thermal energy meters measure thermal power and energy by measuring flow rate and the temperature difference between supply and return water. Typical points under chilled water meter, hot water meter, etc. would be the following:

entering temp
leaving temp
temp delta
flow sensor   // Not totalized
volume sensor // Totalized
power sensor  // Not totalized
energy sensor // Totalized

For a supply-side meter, discharge and return are alternatives to entering and leaving.

In practice, I also include either source or load as a marker tag on the meter equip to show which convention is used to calculate the thermal energy, but these tags aren't formally defined in the Haystack standard.
