6 Boiler sequence management
23.04.2009
The moment an additional boiler is switched on, the flow temperature can drop for
some time if the boiler was started up from “cold“. To prevent this undershoot from
instantly switching on another boiler, a waiting time can be set before performance of
the integral is started (TiDly, upward sequence delay).

Setting the upward sequence integral defines the output deficit that shall cause an
additional boiler to be switched on.

During DHW charging, additional boilers can be released more quickly than in normal
heating mode.

Shortened upward sequence DHW
0…100%
0%
The percentage of the shorter upward sequence for DHW determines how much earlier
the boiler shall be released.
For example, if the value is at 25%, performance of the integral for the second boiler is
started after ¾ of the switch-on delay and the switch-on integral need only be 75% of
the value set. And for every additional boiler, the accelerated performance of the inte-
gral applies. The switch-on delay is at its initial value again.
When there is a valid temperature request, it is always the basic stage of at least one
boiler that is released. If there is no temperature request, all boilers are immediately
locked.
If heat consumption drops, the boilers are switched off based on the temperature
criterion or output balance.
In the case of surplus output, the temperature deviation is accumulated, the same way
as with output shortage. Boilers are locked only if the main flow temperature lies above
the neutral zone about the setpoint.
To ensure that the boilers are switched off in steps, the switch-off integral is restarted
each time a boiler is shut down.
