Controllers for central heating boilers - principle of operation
Various types of controllers have been used in industry for a long time, they enable the automation of selected processes, including management of the operation of machines and systems. This is a great convenience and allows you to streamline the process. The possibilities offered by modern technology are also used in everyday life. Modern controllers and compatible central heating boilers allow you to conveniently control the operation and temperature level in the facility. Thanks to controllers and modern heating solutions, it is possible to reduce the negative impact on the environment.
The method of operation may vary depending on the heating variant. Currently, the most common are gas heating, heat pumps and photovoltaics. Depending on the method, other control mechanisms are used. In the case of solid fuel boilers, controllers are special modules that help optimize the operation of the heating system. Equipped with special sensors, they control the system temperature and, depending on its level, cause a specific reaction.
When the temperature in the system increases, the control system is activated, whose task is to maintain the appropriate temperature level and prevent excessive increase. Then, when the temperature in the system drops below the set ceiling. The controller allows you to set the temperature range in which, for example, a heat pump will operate. The ability to gain control brings measurable benefits to users - increased comfort and reduced heating bills.
Types of drivers
Depending on the heating model, various controllers for central heating boilers are available. In practice, they can be divided into two basic categories - wired and wireless controllers. The difference between them, of course, lies in the presence or absence of cables. In wired solutions, the controller is most often installed directly next to the heating boiler, and the programmer, equipped with a temperature sensor, is located in another room. Both devices are connected to each other by properly routed cabling.
Currently, an alternative to the ballroom versions are wireless systems in which information between individual system elements is transmitted via radio communication. Therefore, devices that transmit and receive the signal will be necessary. Modern controller communication methods are based on the WiFi standard, but their operation will require a home wireless Internet network. This control variant brings additional benefits as it allows you to remotely control your home heating and control the temperature in your home. Monitoring is possible thanks to a special, dedicated application that is downloaded to the smartphone.
Boiler controllers in the Onninen offer
Selecting the appropriate controller variant is crucial for the proper functioning of the entire system. It is because of the efficiency of operation that the appropriate selection of the control device is so important.
One of the control devices available in our offer is the ESBE ata212 draft controller , operating in the temperature range from 35 to 95 degrees. One of the characteristic features of the device is high precision of operation, which makes controlling the operation of the central heating furnace or boiler effective and convenient. Thanks to the controller, you can significantly reduce heating costs. Due to its power of 10n, this model is perfect for small and medium-sized heating installations.
An alternative solution is the EKOSTER 200 System prepared by the Dk temperature controller, which controls the central heating pump . The product prepared by a Polish manufacturer is exceptionally durable and solid. The big advantage is the ease of use. Light weight and attractive design will be an additional advantage for many people. The device is characterized by a wide operating temperature range, from 35 to 99 degrees Celsius.
The type of controller depends on, among others: depending on the heating variant. Pump-powered systems use different solutions than gas heating systems. In gas installations, the role of the controller is taken over by, for example, the Watts RT10N draft regulator , prepared by the manufacturer Watts Industries Italia SRL. Its task is to regulate the gas flow in the installations. For the proper operation of the gas heating system, it is important that the pressure in the system is maintained at a constant level. The use of the RT10N regulator is a guarantee of safety, which in the case of natural gas should be given special attention.
