5.2 High-fire operation

High-fire operation means that large amounts of heat are drawn from the boiler so that
the burner runs continuously. If the heating load during low-fire operation rises to a
level where the actual value begins to fall below switch-on threshold HYS1 , the
controller will not immediately switch to a higher burner output, but first makes a
dynamic test of the control deviation and switches to the higher output only when an
adjustable threshold (q) is exceeded (A).
Reference!
See chapter 5.5 Response threshold (q).
- In high-fire operation – depending on the application – the burner can be fired in
modulating or 2-stage operation, then burning larger amounts of fuel than in low-fire
operation. Binary input D1 can be used to switch between modulating and
2-stage operation
- Contacts D1 and DG open: Modulating burner operation
- Contacts D1 and DG closed: 2-stage burner operation
Reference!
See chapter 8.5 Binary functions binF.

5.2.1 Modulating burner, 3-position output

In area (1), the thermostat function is active. The lowest burner stage is switched on
below switch-on threshold HYS1 and switched off above switch-off threshold HYS3.
Figure 8: Control sequence of modulating burner, 3-position output
Here, operating mode Modulating burner is shown. In high-fire operation, the 3-position
controller acts on an actuator via relay K2 (OPEN) and relay K3 (CLOSE). When the
actual value falls below the setpoint, the response threshold (q) at point (A) is reached
and the controlling element opens (greater heat output). When the actual value lies
within the dead band db, the controlling element remains inactive. When the actual
value exceeds db, the controlling element closes (smaller heat output).
If the actual value exceeds the upper switch-off threshold HYS3 in spite of the lowest
heating stage, the controller switches the burner off (B). The controller only starts low-
fire operation when the actual value falls below switch-on threshold HYS1 again. If the
response threshold (q) is exceeded, the controller switches to high-fire operation (A).

See chapter 5.5 Response threshold (q).
