Minimum Combustion Time; Safety Interlocks (Limits) - Honeywell Krom Schroder PFU 780 Technical Information

Project planning information

6 .3 Minimum combustion time

Even if the start-up signal (ϑ) is applied only briefly, the
time set under parameter 20 elapses before the burner
control unit shuts down the burner or signals a fault. To
stabilise the burner operation, a minimum combustion
time can be set independently of the central control
system. If the start-up signal (ϑ) drops once the sec-
ond safety time t has started to elapse, the burner
SA2
remains in operation for at least time t
combustion time t starts to elapse following controller
B
enable. If the start-up signal drops before the second
safety time t , e.g. during pre-purge, the control unit
SA2
reverts directly to standby and the burner is not ignited.
The signal inputs for the pilot/main burner start-up sig-
nal cannot be used for a safety shut-down because the
unit controls the valves until the minimum combustion
time has elapsed.

haviour of the main burner. The minimum combustion
time for the pilot burner is limited to the safety time on
start-up (t ).

Background: The pilot burner is only used in single-
stage operation.

6 .4 Safety interlocks (Limits)

The limiters in the safety interlock (linking of all the rel-
evant safety control and switching equipment for the
use of the application, e.g. safety temperature limiter,
minimum and maximum gas pressure, tightness con-
trol) must isolate terminal 26e from the voltage supply.
If the safety interlock is interrupted, this is indicated by
a blinking 51 on the display.
If the safety interlocks fail, an immediate program abort
with switch-off of all outputs occurs (even during the
safety time). If the safety interlocks are operational
again or the unit is switched back on, the program run is
restarted in standby.
