Reports, multiple tank systems
Energy usage report
The energy usage report gives an approximate total of
how much energy has been consumed by the
humidifier since the last service interval. Depending
on the system type, this number may be in KWH,
MBTU, therms, etc.
Water usage report
The water usage report gives an approximate total of
how many pounds/kilograms of water have been
converted to steam since the last service interval.
Multiple tank systems
The VAPOR-LOGIC
®
3
controller has the ability to be
connected via a LonTalk
®
network to control up to six
tank humidification systems. These multiple tank
systems operate in exactly the same way as single
tank systems. The multiple tanks work together to
generate the desired level of humidity. The
humidifiers are brought on line sequentially, which
means that one humidifier must be running at full
capacity before the next one is brought on line.
However, the VAPOR-LOGIC
3
controller monitors
the demand signal and will begin to preheat
additional tanks as the demand signal rises so that
there is a seamless transition in output when
additional tanks are brought on line.
