Hi dear experts

Could you please let me know how to get right diffrential pressure value in secondary loop of chilled water system supplying different terminal units?
A diffrential pressure transmitter has been installed in farthest unit and all units are equipped with pressure independent valves. a Vfd is controlling the secondary pump speed according to the pressure value.
i need to determine right pressure setpoint.
Your reply will be highly appreciated.

Thank you so much for the reply.

Honestly, i am confused about the best place of the DPT
Some guys tell it should be on the most remote terminal unit, others says it should be 2/3 of the main line and even across the pump.
Some guys believe it depends on the design.

**all these statemens are based on constant static pressure setpoint not pressure reset method.**
