boiler, the Master lowers the system modulation rate of all currently
running boilers before a newly started boiler enters the Main Valve
state. Upon entering the Main Valve state of a newly fired boiler,
the Master waits the DELAY RELEASE time before allowing the
PID to resume modulation control. With MOD MODE set to ORIG
KN, The Master boiler keeps firing at the current modulation rate
when a new boiler is added and lets the PID adjust modulation rate
accordingly.
DROP DOWN MODE
ON CALL
If drop down is set to ON PILOT and MOD MODE = ADAPTIVE,
and when a newly added boiler starts, the system waits until it enters
its PILOT state before bring the system modulation down. This
allows for the system to prepare for the new energy that is to be
introduced. If DROP DOWN is set to immediately, the system
modulation is lowered as soon as the newly added boiler is called.
DELAY RELEASE TIME
0s
Once the Main Valve opens on the newly added boiler and the MOD
MODE = ADAPTIVE the Master waits this amount of time before
releasing the PID to control modulation. This allows for the newly
added boiler to accumulate some soak time.
This is a global delay controlled by the Master boiler. It is
comparable to the MODULATE DELAY setting, but this is a local
setting on each boiler.
FIRING MODE
TRUE
LOFO: Boilers are fired Last On, First Off starting with Lead Boiler
FOFO: Boilers are fired First On, First Off
TRUE:
Boilers are fired based on the runtime they report back to
the Master boiler. Boilers with the least runtime are fired first and
boilers with the most runtime are stopped first.
MIXED: Different types of boilers can be mixed in a system and
fired based on (2) Priority sets. Boilers are started and stopped
within their Priority sets based on their runtime hours.
MINIMUM RUNTIME
10
(1-750)
When the firing rotation is based on runtime, this value represents
the interval in hours of runtime before rotation occurs. Boiler to
Boiler.
MINIMUM OFF TIME
0
(0-10m)
This is the time in minutes that the boiler must remain OFF before it
can be fired again. Very effective in dynamic systems to minimize
short cycling of a boiler and force the call to the next boiler (with
next shortest runtime if True Runtime is used)
FIRING PRIORITY:
2
1 or 2
There are (2) Priority settings used by the MIXED boiler rotation
algorithm. Priority 2 is the default and lowest priority. Priority 1
Is the highest priority. A Priority may be assigned to a set of boilers
which fires and rotates based on time and is independent of the other
Priority set.
PREDICTIVE START:
YES
YES/NO
YES: Predicts the boiler restart point in the heating band while the
temperature of the boiler is drifting down through the band. The
purpose of this is to ensure the temperature remains in the heating
band. It also minimizes temperature swings when the boiler is
stopped and started at low inputs.
This algorithm looks at the size of the band and at what rate the
temperature is falling. It then calculates when to start the boiler
(knowing its starting time) to ensure the boiler starts within the band.
Once the boiler starts, the Add Boiler Delay time starts and
continues to expire in and below the band. This ensures that another
boiler does not start when it leaves the bottom of the band.
