Furnace automation control panel
The controller is designed to optimize the control of various sources of heating and cooling – heat pump, gas boiler, electric boiler, etc. The control is carried out using such actuators of the heat carrier circuits as a circulation pump, valve, etc.
A few basic algorithms for switching to a backup heat source:
- Optimal in terms of operating costs (taking into account the cost of gas and alternative energy sources).
- Optimal according to operational data (high-temperature consumers are determined, which at the moment of critical temperatures switch to a high-temperature source).
- Switching on an external signal, such as a limit signal in emergency power mode.
Typical scheme of operation of two heating sources
This scheme has been developed and implemented since 2012.
Tested and justified by time.
