Operating principle
The R600 is a fully modulating boiler.
The control unit of the boiler adapts the
modulation ratio automatically to the
heat demand requested by the system.
This is done by controlling the speed of
the fan. As a result, the Whirlwind mix-
ing system will adapt the gas ratio to
the chosen fan speed, in order to main-
tain the best possible combustion fig-
ures and therewith the best efficiency.
The flue gases created by the combus-
tion are transported downwards
through the boiler and leave at the back
side into the chimney connection.
The LMS14 control unit can control the
boiler operation based on:

Boiler control (stand alone operation);

weather compensated operation
(with optional outdoor sensor);

with 0-10V external influence
(temperature or capacity) from a buil-
ding management system.
The return water from the system en-
ters the boiler in the lower section,
where is the lowest flue gas tempera-
ture in the boiler. In this section con-
densation takes place. The water is
being transported upwards through the
boiler, in order to leave the boiler at the
top (burner) section. The cross flow
working principle (water up, flue gas
down) ensures the most efficient com-
bustion results.
