  • Page 4: Introduction

    PF3100 MODULE FAMILY INTRODUCTION The PF3100 burner management system consists of individual building blocks called modules which can be mixed and matched to form a complete solution. Each module performs a specific function and is intended to be installed close to the device they are measuring or controlling. This simplifies wiring and reduces issues with noise and signal loss compared to centralized control systems.

    FEATURES • Can view the status of other modules through the PFRN network from the UI Module • Multiple UIs can show the same info on each screen • Able to mount the UI away from the burner • Simple indication of overall status through LEDs allowing end-users to check statuses from afar •...

  • Page 6: Mounting Considerations

    MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS Orientation The UIX, CTX, and AUX enclosures should be mounted upright. The EPX and TLX enclosures can be mounted in whichever direction makes sense for the application. Location 1. The UI Module is typically mounted in an operator-safe, easily accessible area. The recommended mounting height is 1.5m (5ft) above where the operator will be standing for ease of use.

  • Page 7: Installation Warnings

    INSTALLATION WARNINGS Before installing the PF3100, please review the following list of warnings. Failure to observe the following may result in death, electrocution, property damage, product damage, and/or government fines. 1. For burners greater than 12.5 MMBtuh, additional modules may be required for use with the PF3100 system.
