Managing water quality in HVAC systems is a significant challenge, as even small changes in conductivity can lead to reduced efficiency and equipment damage. In this case study, we show how proper monitoring and control of conductivity affects system performance, energy efficiency and equipment longevity. We outline the relationship between conductivity levels and HVAC system efficiency, discuss how to identify and resolve water quality issues and share our experience in implementing reliable monitoring systems. Using the example of our client, who struggled with critical issues in their infrastructure, we show how intelligent conductivity control solutions can revolutionise HVAC system performance and improve water quality management.

Our experience shows that conductivity measurement is a very effective indicator of water quality and HVAC system performance. By implementing conductivity control, you can protect your equipment and ensure optimal operational efficiency.
Conductivity measurement plays a key role in heating and cooling systems for several reasons:
We worked with a leading manufacturer of air handling units (AHUs) and modular data centres to solve a complex water quality management problem. The client serves demanding environments that require exceptional precision in HVAC systems, particularly in the context of conductivity control.
The client has operated in environments such as:
The HVAC client was struggling to maintain ideal levels of water conductivity while meeting stringent industry standards. Standard conductivity management methods were proving insufficient. They needed a solution that would provide precise control of water quality parameters while supporting their operational efficiency and sustainability goals.
To address these challenges, we implemented a comprehensive conductivity control solution based on JUMO's advanced technology. The solution consisted of three key components:
These components have been configured according to the customer's requirements, allowing maximum performance with flexibility in various operating scenarios.

Our solution significantly improved the performance of the client's HVAC systems. Key benefits included:
Continuous monitoring and automated controls set new standards for HVAC water quality, supporting the customer's green initiatives and improving operational efficiency.
