I

24、t is merelyinformative and does not contain requirements necessaryfor conformance to the guideline.)FOREWORDThe Commissioning (Cx) Process for existing systems andassemblies is an organized, quality-oriented process for plan-ning, assessing, investigating, implementing, verifying, anddocumenting tha

25、t improves the performance of facilities, sys-tems, and assemblies to meet defined operational require-ments and criteria for the facility over time.The Existing-Building Commissioning ProcessThe Existing-Building Commissioning (EBCx) Process isused by Owners and/or other facility decision makers to

26、 opti-mize the operation of their facilities and systems for their spe-cific Current Facility Requirements (CFR). The process isused to plan facility operation programs and goals and thencompare existing conditions and operations to those goals.This evaluation allows the Owner to determine if any of

27、 theexisting conditions require or warrant further attention. Theprocess is also used to identify the causes of existing problemsand shortfalls in achieving the CFR and to determine methodsfor resolving those problems. Most importantly, the processprovides the Owner with a logical decision-making ap

28、proachto evaluate, compare, prioritize, and implement recommenda-tions for making their facilities operate as efficiently andeffectively as is economically feasible given the Owners spe-cific requirements and resources. When physical changes tothe facility are required as a consequence of the EBCx P

29、ro-cess, all such modifications must meet applicable codes per-taining to the work being performed. Additionally, followingthe process allows Owners to maintain the benefits of theseimplemented recommendations over time.The EBCx Process differs from the Cx Process for newbuildings in that the Cx Tea

30、m for existing buildings is selectedand charged with evaluating existing-building systems andassemblies to determine their ability to meet the OwnersCFR, which may differ from the original design.This guideline details a process that can be applied to anytype of building, system, or assembly. The EB

31、Cx Process con-sists of distinct phases with specific objectives to be achievedduring each phase in order to identify and correct operationaland functional issues that prevent the building systems andassemblies from performing as currently required. The processinvolves the following phases: Planning

32、, Assessment, Investi-gation, Implementation, Hand-Off, and Ongoing Commission-ing (OCx). This guideline describes the responsibilities of theCx Team and the documents and reports needed to provide auniform, integrated, and consistent approach for maintaining,operating, and managing assets to meet t

33、he Owners and otherstakeholders ongoing requirements.The process detailed in this guideline is presented as lin-ear. In reality, the process probably will be iterative and inter-active, where many tasks and even some phases are performedmore than once as needed for the specific facility and systems.

34、The documents used and created in this guideline are livingdocuments that will need to be updated throughout the EBCxProcess.The process places an emphasis on planning and on doc-umentation of the CFR early on, with updates throughout asneeded. Owners adopt the EBCx to achieve their stated objec-tiv

35、es and criteria as defined in the CFR. The CFR must appro-priately describe these criteria as understood at the beginningof the process and must be modified as new information isuncovered.The Assessment, Investigation, and ImplementationPhases are critical to making a difference in a facility, but t

36、hemost overlooked phase is the OCx Phase, which is used for ver-ifying and sustaining the actual performance of the facility overtime. If the Owner does not continue to verify system perfor-mance improvements, those benefits are likely to deteriorate ordisappear in future years. The development of f

37、acility stafftraining modules, including documents on how the buildingworks (facility guide), are critical to maintaining long termperformance in anticipation of the inevitable staff turn-over.The Cx Process as presented herein allows the Owner toreduce the life-cycle cost of the facility. Following

38、 this inte-grated process should result in a fully functional facility, withcomplete documentation of its systems and assemblies, andtrained operating and maintenance personnel.EBCx Process Supporting Technical GuidelinesASHRAE Guideline 0.2 presents details on the Cx Process forexisting systems and

39、 assemblies without focusing on specificsystems or assemblies. Supporting technical guidelines arebeing developed to provide specific and detailed informationon how to implement the Cx Process for each major facilitysystem or assembly. However, the EBCx can be implementedsuccessfully without the sup

40、porting technical guidelines.Supporting technical guidelines use a common contentorganization that is closely coordinated with Guideline 0.2 toavoid repeating Cx Process information that is conveyed inthis guideline. This common content organization, with focuson system-specific information, forms a

41、 set of documents thatcan be employed together or in any combination to accommo-date varying Owner requirements.AnnexesAnnexes are included with this guideline to assist users inapplying the Cx Process for existing systems and assembliesand to aid in the development of the supporting technicalguidel

42、ines. Most of the annexes include examples locatedonline at www.ashrae.org/G02-2015. The examples arebased on specific project experience and are presented as arepresentative sample of current practice, which may not fol-low all of the procedures presented in this guideline. Theyillustrate applicati

43、on of the Cx Process to various facility,system, or assembly types. They are not intended to promotespecific formats for the various deliverables related to the CxProcess but to help illustrate how the guideline can be putinto practice.History of Cx Process GuidelinesDevelopment of guidelines for th

44、e Cx Process began formallyin 1982 when ASHRAE formed a committee to document bestpractices to achieve facilities that performed according to theneeds of the Owner and other stakeholders. ASHRAE publishedASHRAE Guideline 0.2-2015 3its original Cx guideline, ASHRAE Guideline 1, The HVACCommissioning

45、Process, in 1989, and an updated version waspublished in 1996. These first guidelines were developed withan emphasis on HVAC some of these will be close to continuousin implementation and others will be either scheduled orunscheduled (as needed).recommissioning: an application of the Cx Process requ
