CONTROL STRATEGY:
Outdoor Reset:
In order to properly control a hot water heating system, the heat sup-
plied to the building must equal the heat lost by the building.
• The heat supplied to a building is proportional to the temperature of
the supply water and the surface area of the heating element. A
small surface area such as baseboard radiators requires a higher
water temperature than a larger surface area such as radiant floors.
• The heat lost from a building is dependent on the outdoor tem-
perature, as well as other factors. As the outdoor temperature
drops, the building heat loss increases.
Reset Ratio:
Operation of a hot water heating system can generally be improved by
modulating the supply water temperature as the outdoor temperature
changes. Using this approach, the heat lost from the building is
matched by the heat input to the building. The SR501-OR boiler reset
control utilizes a reset ratio to set the relationship between outdoor
temperature and supply water temperature. The reset ratio determines
the amount the supply water temperature is raised for every 1° drop in
outdoor air temperature, and it is determined from the starting point
and the system design conditions. In order for the control to automat-
ically determine the reset ratio, outdoor design conditions must be
established. This is usually the typical coldest outdoor temperature
or it can be set by using ASHARE standards for Design Outdoor
Temperature for specific geographic locations.
APPLICATION:
The SR501-OR is a microprocessor-based control designed to regulate
the supply water temperature of a single boiler, based on the outdoor
temperature. The SR501-OR is a boiler reset control and switching relay
in one unit. The SR501-OR is ideal for retrofit application, but may also
be used in new installations as well.
The SR501-OR includes functions such as automatic reset ratio calcu-
lation, warm weather shut down (WWSD), minimum boiler temperature
setting, and boiler differential setting. The control also has boiler sensor
and outdoor sensor error checking.
