Dedicated Boiler A670-1 Mechanical
Description
The WiFi Snow Melting Control 670 operates a boiler that is dedicated for the snow melting system. The system is piped in
primary-secondary to allow constant flow rates through the low-mass boiler and filled with glycol to prevent freezing.
• The system pump operates continuously when heating the slab during melting/idling/storm operation.
• The boiler pump cycles on and off together with the boiler.
• The slab temperature is controlled by modulating the boiler firing rate or cycling the boiler on and off.
• The slab target is determined by the melting/idling/storm setpoint and by the measured outdoor air temperature.
• Optional slab protection limits the temperature differential between the boiler supply and slab.
The system operation is dependent on sensor selection, as listed in the table below.
