Multiple Boiler Control

That control will also rotate the boilers.

Multiple boiler control.

It can be used in applications ranging from a single zone of baseboard multiple baseboard and fan coil zones to dedicated domestic hot water heating in commercial buildings. Master and central control of multiple boilers for overall system load control reduces boiler on off cycling due to system load management incorporates lead lag or unison modulation for steam or hot water boiler systems. In this case each boiler has its own boiler master which is an auto manual station that accepts the plant master s output applies a ratio and bias and sends the result out as the demand signal to the combustion controls. With a multiple boiler programmable controller such as the merley sequence controller the appropriate number of boilers can be set up to fire and modulate together to accurately respond to variations in demand in the most efficient manner in this way we can increase overall plant efficiency with improved load matching of the entire boiler plant to the building s.

There are numerous bus architectures available. Alternate supply of the multiple boiler sequencer is the ems using modbus or 4 20ma as discussed above or a third party device such as manufactured by tekmar or heat timer. The communication data bus passes significant data between the digital control systems in a serial format. The utica boilers multiple boiler control mbc operates up to four boilers and resets the heating system water temperature based on outdoor air temperatures.

Boiler staging if you use a tekmar control that should do the job. When connecting the ems input to the rj45 modbus port the multiple boiler sequencer function cannot be done by the control and must be supplied by others. Modern microprocessor based controls for multiple boiler systems often perform several functions. The boiler control 274 is designed to stage multiple boilers using outdoor temperature reset.

If the demand is for space heating the controller typically determines its target temperature using outdoor reset logic. You can then use outdoor reset and indoor reset. Dcs plc or computer controlled smart instruments linked together by a communication data bus. Selecting multiple boilers maximizes your energy savings and provides.

Utica boilers are piped in primary secondary arrangement and the mbc control automatically selects how many boilers are needed to maintain the required heating load. Performance use tekmarnet communication to stage multiple heat sources optimize system operation and provide remote monitoring and alerts capability. For starters they automatically calculate the proper supply water temperature to the system. Complex boiler control systems may involve multiple digital control systems e g.

In multiple parallel boiler arrangements the plant master must output to each boiler s combustion controls.
