Boiler Control Cabinets

Boiler Automation is an important part of the boiler control panel, and its significance is hard to overestimate. It performs a vital function in controlling the gas boiler, which is the main working equipment.

Purpose of Automation

Control cabinets for boilers are relevant in cases where the functions of service personnel can be minimized, that is, in the absence of permanent workers. These cabinets can be installed in both household and industrial facilities.

The weight of control cabinets usually does not exceed 150 kg, and their maximum dimensions are:

  • height – 2.1 m;
  • depth – 0.6 m;
  • width – 0.8 m.

Functions Performed

Boiler automation ensures the execution of many functions, including:

  • control of the feed water pump;
  • control of the pump responsible for circulating hot water;
  • control of the network water pump;
  • control of the aeration pump;
  • control of fuel shut-off valves installed at the boiler entrance with precise signaling of their position.

In addition, the automated system is capable of generating special signals in case of deviations in one of the monitored parameters. At the same time, audible and visual alarms are triggered, activating the protection system.

Opportunities Provided

The boiler control cabinet allows:

  • to maintain the necessary operating mode of the boiler while adhering to all safety parameters;
  • to automatically shut down the boiler in case of exceeding permissible safe values;
  • to activate audible and visual alarms in operating or emergency mode.

No less important is the fact that the boiler automation has the ability to stop the gas supply to the burners in the following cases:

  • there is a decrease or increase in gas pressure before the burners;
  • a reduced air pressure near the burners is detected;
  • there is a decrease in vacuum in the combustion chamber;
  • an increase in water temperature is noted during the outlet from the boiler;
  • an increase or decrease in the pressure of heated water at the outlet is observed.

The manufacturer guarantees uninterrupted operation of the boiler automation for ten years, provided that all specified norms are followed.
