THERMA Dashboard Template

THERMA is a complete, production-ready chiller plant optimization package for the Tridium Niagara Framework. Eight linked pages cover the whole central utility plant, bringing chillers, cooling towers, pumps, supervisory optimization, alarms and analytics into one clear operational dashboard.

THERMA is built around the numbers that actually run a plant: kW/ton, loop ΔT, condenser approach and staging headroom. Live status language follows real plant behavior — a chiller with an unacknowledged condenser alarm reads Cooling — Warning, a machine pushed past 85% RLA reads High Load, and the schematic dims equipment that isn't running — so the next action is always visible.

Open the demo in a new browser window to explore the interface, stage chillers on and off, drag the supply and condenser water reset sliders and watch the predicted kW/ton respond, acknowledge alarms, and see how THERMA turns a plant room full of data into one consistent experience.

What’s included

• Plant Home — Live animated plant schematic with color-coded chilled and condenser water loops, plant kW/ton, cooling load and capacity KPIs, staging status, daily savings versus baseline and an active alarm strip.
• Chillers — Per-machine cards with RLA gauges, live status (Normal / Warning / High Load / Off), lead-lag tagging, supply and return temperatures, input power, run hours and enable control.
• Cooling Towers — Condenser water supply against setpoint, approach versus wet-bulb, cell-level fan VFD speed, basin temperature and vibration status.
• Pumps & Hydronics — Primary chilled water and condenser water pump tables with run status, VFD speed, kW and run hours for rotation planning.
• Optimization — Chilled water supply and condenser water reset sliders with a live predicted plant kW/ton gauge, auto / manual supervisory mode and projected monthly savings at the current load profile.
• Analytics — Trailing 24-hour efficiency and load trend, best and worst hour, total cooling delivered and low-ΔT event tracking.
• Alarm Console — Priority-coded alarm queue with acknowledgement workflow, wired through to chiller status and the home page alarm strip.
• Settings — Staging thresholds, stage delays, lead chiller rotation schedule and display options.

Built for Niagara

THERMA is designed as a native Niagara graphics package rather than a separate application layered on top of the station.

• Native PX and BAJAUX views
• No third-party graphics runtime
• No additional graphics licensing
• Designed for Niagara N4.10 and later and tested across all JACE brands
• Scales from a single chiller plant to multi-plant campus architecture
• Responsive layouts for control rooms, desktop and tablet
• Light and dark variants included — editable colors, branding, labels and navigation
• Reusable KPI cards, gauges, schematic and status components
• Consistent point naming and binding structure
• Alarm color and shape coding that stays readable for color blind operators

Optimization operators can see

THERMA is built for plant teams that need to understand what the supervisory logic is doing and what it is saving, not just whether the chillers are on.

The dashboard turns chilled water, condenser water, staging and power data into a focused set of actionable KPIs, making it easier to spot low-ΔT syndrome before it strands capacity, trace an efficiency drop back to the machine that caused it, plan staging around load, and put a dollar figure on every reset.

In the download

Four signed modules and their signing certificate, the THERMA component bog and license service, the eight PX pages and their navigation file, a second unconfigured page set with examples off, README and manifest with SHA-256 checksums for every file.

Documentation is included and written for three different readers: an Integrator Guide covering install, activation, page-by-page point binding and customization, an Operator Guide for plant staff, and a quick card for the control room wall.

Free updates are included for the life of the pack.
