Daikin also uses a power meter that monitors the supply coming into the unit. Via the gateway, it sends data about the power signal to an Intel cloud, where it’s analyzed to determine the power usage of each component inside the HVAC system, like fans and refrigerant compressors. Without the back-end analytics, Daikin would have to install meters on each component, an implementation that would be prohibitively expensive, Facinelli says. Daikin’s commercial Rebel cooling […]
