Case Study: Town of Arlington achieves up to 20% energy savings and faster fault detection with Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions

Town of Arlington - Customer Case Study

The Town of Arlington faced the challenge of consolidating summer-school operations into the Peirce School and managing a newly purchased chiller while operating on tight budgets. Seeking more than “glorified schedulers,” Arlington selected Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions’ GENESIS64 HMI/SCADA and the Facility AnalytiX analytics suite (integrated with Microsoft Azure) to provide advanced energy management and fault detection for the building’s HVAC systems.

Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions deployed Facility AnalytiX with GENESIS64 and Azure-based data collection to detect faults, diagnose causes, and extend trending without new on-site hardware. The system identified excessive chiller on/off cycling and enabled targeted repairs, reduced contractor diagnostic time by 15–20%, and cut the school’s natural gas consumption by roughly 20% in the first winter—improving efficiency, lowering costs, and helping preserve equipment lifespan.
