11 Operating information (continued)
If the set point still cannot be met, the Leader will continue
firing more Members until either the heat demand is met or
all water heaters on the Cascade are firing. As the heat demand
decreases, the last water heater on will modulate down to 20%
of its firing rate. Once the demand for that water heater is zero
it will shut down. As the heat demand decreases further, the
second to last water heater will modulate down and shut off.
This will continue until the demand is satisfied and all water
heaters are shut off.
Night Setback operation with cascade
Night Setback operation of the water heaters within the
Cascade is available. Programming of the Night Setback will
be done through the Leader water heater. Refer to the Armor
Water Heater Service manual for information regarding Night
Setback.
Sequence of the cascade
To equalize the runtime of all water heaters on the Cascade,
the firing sequence will automatically be changed at set
intervals.
For the first 24 hours after initializing the Cascade, the
sequence will be changed every hour. After that the sequence
will be changed once every 24 hours. The switching on/off
sequence will be as follows:
DAY SWITCHING ON SEQUENCE
Day 1 L-M1-M2-M3-M4-M5-M6-M7
Day 1 + 1 hour M1-M2-M3-M4-M5-M6-M7-L
Day 1 + 2 hour M2-M3-M4-M5-M6-M7-L-M1
