Project Overview

 

The Australia National University (ANU) is a public university in Australia’s capital city, Canberra. The University is home to the John Curtin School for Medical Research. Founded in 1948, the school is Australia’s national medical research institute.

 

The John Curtin School for Medical Research is a special purpose building designed to combine a public interface with state-of-the-art secure research and laboratory facilities, and supports the pioneering medical work undertaken by ANU students and researchers. The client needed to ensure that critical environmental conditions were maintained within these spaces.

 

Airmaster worked closely with Conserve It to deploy the award-winning PlantPRO® - Plantroom Performance Reliability Optimisation Solution on a CI-DEG-3000 to deliver reliable 24/7 operation, and to ensure stable conditions are always maintained for the building’s critical research functions.

 

Although optimisation is always a key factor for any PlantPRO installation, reliability and plant stability was the first priority on this plant. This KPI has already been proven with zero down time or loss of conditions since the completion of final commissioning. With regards to plant efficiency, even under low load conditions, an improvement in running costs has been shown.
