ECL 9800 mode of operation
The required flow temperature is
calculated from the outdoor temperature
and the set heat curve. The value is
called T
ref
.
T
ref
lies within a differential (e.g. 8
degrees). This means that a boiler stage
is cut-in when the actual (T
act
) flow
temperature is half the differential
(4 degrees) below T
ref
.
Correspondingly, a boiler stage is cut-out
when the actual flow temperature is half
the differential (4 degrees) over T
ref
.
Provided the actual flow temperature does
not differ from T
ref
by more than 20 degrees,
temperature changes of more than 1
degree per minute is registered and no
further boiler stage is cut-in or cut-out.
If the change is less than 1 degree per
minute, the next boiler stage is cut-in or
cut-out. The interval between a cut-in
and the next cut-in or a cut-out and the
next cut-out must be set in P7.4.
A number of boiler stages are cut-in or
cut-out when the actual flow temperature
is more than 20 degrees from T
ref
.
The interval between a cut-in and the
next cut-in or a cut-out and the next cut-
out must be set in P7.5.
Sequence change
With sequence control of four stages the
order is 1-2-3-4. At the first sequence
change the order becomes 2-3-4-1, at
the second sequence change 3-4-1-2,
and so on. A sequence is changed every
24
th
hour after power has been
connected to the controller and when a
stage is cut-out.
Hot-water-service function
ECL 9800 can control a boiler system
with hot-water service circuit. The output
for pump or changeover valve is
activated in selecting number of boiler
stages + 1. The number of boiler stages
can be 1 - 11. At hot-water-service
demand, i.e. when service water is to be
heated, the boiler temperature must be
higher than the required hot-water-
service temperature.
Setting system examples 4 og 5
(3 boiler stages and HWS):
P9.4 right digit: either “3”(sequence
change) or “5” (fixed sequence)
P4.2 required hot-water temperature,
e.g. 55 °C
P4.4 charge temperature, i.e. the
temperature difference between
the boiler temperature and the
required hot-water-service
temperature. The boiler
temperature must be higher than
the hot-water-service temperature,
example 20 K.
P4.5 Cut-in and cut-out difference of the
hot-water-service temperature,
e.g. 6 K
Hot-water demand
When the hot-water-service temperature
is below 52 °C, formula: P4.2 - (0.5 ×
P4.5), pump or changeover valve is
activated.
The reference temperature for boiler
circuit is now 75 °C (= 55 °C + P4.4)
The boiler is cut-in to ensure a boiler
temperature of 75 °C.
The boiler water heats the service water.
When the hot-water-service temperature
exceeds 58 °C, formula: P4.2 +
(0.5 × P4.5), pump or changeover valve
is cut-out.
System example 4 (hot-water priority):
When the hot-water cylinder temperature
is below the required value, the change-
over valve is activated. The difference
between required value and boiler
temperature is selected in setting P4.4
NOTE: Change-over valve, setting in
P8.5.
