The new S8B programmable 2nd generation controller for Hydrotherm’s modular boiler systems brings a new level of automation and sophistication to today’s requirements for efficient and comfortable hydronic heating systems. Along with the popular demands for lower fuel consumption, limited maintenance, and longer equipment life, have come the increasing demands for controllers that can monitor and control boilers from remote locations, as well as electronically communicate with other components of a building’s mechanical system.
The development of micro-processor technology in recent years has allowed Hydrotherm to create the intelligent S8B Controller to fulfill these requests. Hydrotherm is now able to offer a sophisticated boiler room controller to satisfy building owners, utility companies, and system designers.
The controller has 8 output relays which can be used to control heating boilers, domestic hot water boilers, motorized valves, combustion air dampers and draft inducers. It has event programming for alarms, etc. and a data logging feature to allow you to review what boilers have been on when and what the temperatures and setpoints were. It can be monitored from a remote location using the optional modem and software to check on the current operation, download the data log, or even change the settings, all protected by password against unauthorized access. The S8B has a new user friendly menu system along with a new look and feel. |
