1 Introduction
This guide can be downloaded from the Fireye web site at www.Fireye.com. Search bulletins for NXOGTSD6101 under the Nexus products family.
As an operator there are generally only a few items of interest as far as operating the Nexus NX6100. They are:
Setting the system’s operating pressure or temperature. (Section 3.6) Adjusting the cut in or cut out value. (Section 3.6) Manually modulating the boiler. (Section 4.1) Resetting the control after a safety shut down. (Section 2.5) Finding the Fault that caused the shut down. (Section 2.11) Changing Fuel/Profiles. (Section 2.7)
All of the other options and adjustments should be done by the combustion technician, as changes to certain parameters could result in an unsafe operating mode.
1.1 General
The Nexus touchscreen display allows the operator (or combustion technician) access to all setpoints and option parameters for commissioning and operating the Nexus NX6100.
1.2 Password
Several levels of passwords protect the integrity of the control. The only password an operator should require is the “site Passcode.” This can be set as a number from 0-999. The factory default number is 154. The site Passcode can be changed if desired, however, this requires the use of a higher-level Passcode.
Warning: Should the Password be changed and forgotten, the NX6100 will have to be reprogrammed by using the higher-level Password. Until then, no adjustments are possible. Using the site Password, all options can be reviewed, but only a limited number can be changed
Password entry ­ Method one:
From the Touchscreen, press the Control button. This brings up the process control (see Section 2.8) where normal operating setpoints are adjusted. Press the desired value to change, such as the SP (setpoint) or CO (Cut Out), which will bring up the numeric keypad. Enter the site password (default is 154) and press OK. The numeric keypad will disappear and an open lock will appear on the top line of the display. Again press the Control button, press the desired value to change and use the up/down arrow keys to set the new value. The value is stored when you press the Set key. The Control will lock out requiring reentry of the password five minutes after the last keystroke.
Password entry ­ Method two:
From the Touchscreen, press the Menu button followed by the Burner Settings button. The Com key will appear in the bottom right of the Burner Settings screen. Press the Com key and enter the site password (default 154) on the numeric keypad. Press OK. Now, depending upon what parameter you want to change, you can press the Control key or press the Options tab on the Burner Settings screen.
4

To use the Options tab, you must scroll to the desired option, press the current value followed by the Set key. This will bring up the numeric keypad where you will enter the new value. Pressing OK will save the value. Note, the original value turns blue when you first press it, yellow to indicate a new value has been saved. WARNING: If the default site password (154) has been change (using the full commissioning password) and forgotten, no values can be changed without the full password.
2 Description of Touchscreen operation.
2.1 The Touchscreen
The touchscreen provides all of the functions required to control and monitor the burner, it is also used to commission the control. Once commissioning mode is selected the display background changes to red to alert the user that the control is in commissioning mode and therefore unable to monitor certain safety functions such as fuel air ratio positions. 2.2 Touchscreen Power on.
Initialization of the control and display will take approximately 16 seconds, during this initialization period the status LED will remain red. The display backlight will come on and the relays will be held in their no alarm state to avoid the possibility of nuisance alarms, which may otherwise occur.
Five (5) seconds after power is applied the Fireye splash screen (shown below) will be displayed for 6 seconds, after which a period of 5 seconds of a blank white screen will show.
Once the initialization is complete the touchscreen will show the overview screen (shown in section 2.3) and the control will operate normally, changing the LED to green and relays to operate in line with the control status.
5

2.3 The Operation Mode line and Status messages The line at the top of the screen displays the current burner: operating mode, profile, modulation mode and unit address. Burner status, and fault information, if applicable, is displayed in the bottom right corner of the display. Dependent on the actual fault the audible alarm may be active and the control may move to safety shutdown.
Dedicated buttons’ at the lower edge of the screen perform the following functions: Mute / Reset ­ used to reset a burner lockout, mute alarms or to test audible alarms. If an alarm is present the button is yellow and the text on thebutton’ changes to Alarm Mute. Burner Start/Stop ­ starts the burner, grayed out if the burner is already operating. Fuel ­ allows selection of which fuel/profile is to be used, from a list of fuels/profiles available. Control ­ used to enable selection of modulation mode, setpoint used, low fire hold, and make adjustments to normal operating parameters. Menu ­ used to access configuration, adjustment modes. Overview ­ returns screen to burner overview mode. The following table shows the Icons that are displayed on the touchscreen above the information panels and their details.

2.4 Touchscreen Overview display.

While the burner is changing status’ the bottom-right one sixth of the display is used to provide a graphical indication of changing status. The sequences displayed in this manner include, burner start-up, burner shutdown and fuel changeover. In each case there is alamp’ for each stage, providing a ripple through lamp system to clearly indicate the progress of the change in burner `status’.
The example shown in the picture is for the burner start-up sequence display. Once the sequence is complete then the display will return, after a short delay, to the overview screen.

2.5 Touchscreen Lockout Reset (Alarm Mute) Function.
The Reset (Alarm Mute) `button’ on the touchscreen is multi-functional. In normal operation it may be used to test the alarms, this is achieved by holding the button for in excess of 10 seconds after which the alarm relays will activate.
The Reset (Alarm Mute) button is also used to mute alarms and reset the control following a safety shutdown. If the alarm is sounding, the button will show the text Mute, pressing the button will mute (silence) the alarm, and then the text in the button will change to Reset, holding the button for greater than 3 seconds will allow the burner to restart if the faults have cleared. Further details of the functionality of this button are defined below.

There are three types of fault (alarm):
Alarm Only This will allow the burner to continue to operate, while the alarm is sounding.
If the Reset (Alarm Mute) button is pressed while the control is in this mode and the alarm is sounding the alarm will be muted and the burner will continue to operate.
Controlled Shutdown This will cause the burner to perform a controlled shutdown, and the alarm will sound, once the fault clears the burner will restart without the requirement for manual intervention.
If the Mute/ Reset button is pressed while the control is in this mode the alarm will be muted and the burner will remain in controlled shutdown. If the Mute/Reset button is pressed after the control has restarted following a controlled shutdown the alarm will be muted and the burner will continue to operate.

8

Safety Shutdown This will cause the burner to perform a safety shutdown, and the alarm will sound, once the fault has cleared the burner will remain in safety shutdown until a Mute/ Reset is performed. If the Mute/ Reset button is pressed while the control is in safety shutdown and the fault is still present the alarm will be muted and the burner will remain in safety shutdown. When the fault clears the alarm will sound once more. If the Mute/ Reset button is pressed while the control is in safety shutdown and the fault has cleared the alarm will be muted and if the button is held for in excess of 3 seconds the burner will re-start. 2.6 Touchscreen LED Indication. The Touchscreen also houses a multi-functional LED for indication of current status. The LED will be green, permanently on, if no faults or limits are present. The LED will be red, flashing, if there is a limit or an alarm condition present, which does not cause a lockout. The LED will be red, permanently on, if there is a fault present, even if the fault has been muted, which causes a lockout. 2.7 Touchscreen Fuel/Profile Select. Once the Fuel soft-button is pressed, a pop- up window appears on the right giving the user a choice of available fuels/profiles. The NX6100 allows for a maximum of four profiles. Any profiles, which are not programmed and therefore not available, will be `grayed-out’.
9

The Name’ for each available profile will be either the default as set by the relevant option parameter or that entered via the Configuration Screen. If the profile change is made while the burner is firing, there are two possibilities dependent on the options set in the control. If the unit does not have the option to perform an online changeover enabled (switch profile without the burner going off) the burner will go through a controlled shutdown on the original profile and then restart on the new profile. The online changeover allows a digital input to be configured to allow a profile swap without turning the burner off. If this input is ON and a fuel profile selection change is made, the control will go to low fire then back to pilot ignition (P2) on the original profile. It will then drop the main fuel valves and run with just the pilot on (and the ignition transformer if option parameter 14.6 is not set to 1). It will then move all drives to the P2 position of the new profile and open the appropriate main fuel valves. To exit this operation window and return to the overview screen press the Overview button. 2.8 TouchscreenControl’ screen. Once the Control button is pressed, a window appears giving the user a choice of options. If an option is unavailable it will be `grayed out’, for example Manual Modulation may be disabled during commissioning.
If the burner is firing, then the modulation percentage will be displayed ion the vertical bar graph (0-100%), as well as numerically inside the box..
Using the buttons available from this window will change the way the burner is operating.
To exit this control mode window and return to the overview screen use the Overview button.
10

2.9 Touchscreen Menu’ button. Once the Menu button is pressed, a pop-up window appears on the right giving the user a choice of options. If an option is unavailable it will begrayed out’.

Using the buttons available after pressing the Menu button will generate a new pop-up window in the left hand area of the screen.

To exit this operation window and return to the overview screen press the Overview button.

Settings’ button.

2.10 Touchscreen `Burner

Once the Burner Settings button is pressed, a window appears giving the user a choice of data types by Tab. Selecting, by touching a tab, it as possible to view a variety of data, in the example here the Option Parameters are available.

11

In the following example the Engineers Key values are displayed. The scroll bar at the side of the data tab allows the user to move up and down the table.
2.11 Touchscreen `Fault/Event Log’ button. Once the Fault/Event Log button is pressed, a window appears showing the Fault/Event history. Users may select to see Fault data only, Events data only or a combined history as shown in this example. For more information on fault codes and fault finding refer to the Fault Finding section of the NX6100 manual ­ Fireye bulletin NEX-6101.
12

2.12 Touchscreen Screen Configuration’ button. Once the Screen Configuration button is pressed, a window appears giving the user a choice of options. From the General Tab a name may be entered for each profile in use. Highlight the profile for which a name is to be entered or modified and press the Modify button. This will cause a window to appear allowing the required name to be entered using the button pad. Once the name is displayed against the required profile the mode can be exited by pressing theX’ in the top right corner of the Touchscreen Configuration window. To exit this configuration window and return to the overview screen press the Overview button. 2.13 Cleaning the Touchscreen
WARNING
To prevent possible damage to the touchscreen, ensure the correct fluid’ is used when cleaning the screen. Before attempting to clean the screen ensure the clean screen function is enabled to ensure operation of the burner is not affected Once theClean Screen’ function is selected the display keys will be unavailable for 20 seconds
13

Before attempting to clean the screen it is essential to select the Clean Screen function to prevent any pressure applied to clean the touchscreen being seen’ as abutton press’. The function can be accessed by selecting the Menu button at the base of the touchscreen and then, selecting Clean Screen from the list of functions available.
When cleaning the touchscreen ensure the correct LCD screen cleaner is used. Use of any other cleaning fluid or water may damage the screen. There are designated commercial cleaning solutions on the market for touchscreens only. Also, these products are recommended to be used only with a very soft cloth. Please note the directions and the warnings on the product.
CAUTION
Do NOT use any ammonia-based window cleaner. These chemical cleaners can ruin the touchscreen surface.
Do NOT use any abrasive rags, towels or paper towels. An abrasive towel can scratch the touchscreen.
14

2.14 Touchscreen Commission mode.
To allow Option Parameters or Drives to be adjusted it is necessary to enter the relevant access passcode. To enter the passcode press the COM button. This will prompt the keypad pane to appear, allowing the relevant passcode to be entered using the soft keypad and confirmed by pressing the OK button.
CAUTION
Use extreme care while commissioning the system. While operating in commissioning mode the safety of the system is the sole responsibility of the commissioning engineer.
Ensure a pre-purge position is entered for the relevant drives. Incorrect positioning of either fuel or air could cause a hazardous situation to
occur. If the servo-motor positions have been up-loaded it is essential that the
combustion is verified at each firing position to ensure a hazardous condition cannot occur, and for the data to be stored in the control. It is recommended that the close position for each servo motor is re-entered as part of the burner service regime, to compensate for wear in the servo-motor micro-switch during operation. Once all profile positions have been adjusted/entered it is essential that all profile points are checked to verify that the fuel air ration is acceptable for the appliance being controlled.
15

Once the correct passcode is entered the unit will enter commissioning mode and allow the option parameters and profile points to be adjusted, the text on the COM button will change to RUN. To warn the `user’ that the unit is in commissioning mode the overall display background changes to red and COM is displayed top-center on the screen
3 Setpoint, Cut In/Cut Out and Modulation Option Parameters
NOTE: For the following Options 21.x and 22.x, see Section 10 for PID Tutorial.
Setpoint/Modulation entry ­ Method one: From the Touchscreen, press the Control button. This brings up the process control where normal operating setpoints are adjusted (See Touchscreen section 2.8). Press the desired value to change, such as the SP (setpoint) which will bring up the numeric keypad. Enter the site password (default is 154) and press OK. The numeric keypad will disappear and an open lock will appear on the top line of the display. Again press the Control button, press the desired value to change and use the up/down arrow keys to set the new value. The value is stored when you press the Set key. The Control will lock out requiring reentry of the password five minutes after the last keystroke. Setpoint/Modulation entry ­ Method two:
16

From the Touchscreen, press the Menu button followed by the Burner Settings button (See Touchscreen Section 2.10). The Com key will appear in the bottom left of the Burner Settings screen. Press the Com key and enter the site password (default 154) on the numeric keypad. Press OK. Now, depending upon what parameter you want to change, you can press the Control key or press the Options tab on the Burner Settings screen.
To use the Options tab, you must scroll to the desired option, press the current value followed by the Set key. This will bring up the numeric keypad where you will enter the new value. Pressing OK will save the value. Note, the original value turns blue when you first press it, yellow to indicate a new value has been saved.
NOTE: If the default site password (154) has been change (using the full commissioning password) and forgotten, no values can be changed without the full password.

3.1

Option 21.0 ­ Set-point 1 enable (0 – 1) LV1

This option parameter is used to enable setpoint 1. (Option 22.0 for setpoint 2)

3.2

Option 21.1 ­ Set-point 1 control value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1

This is the desired pressure or temperature control value used in the PID control loop for setpoint 1. When the control is in auto mode, the PID control loop will modulate the boiler to maintain the measured value at the same level as set by this parameter.

3.3

Option 21.2 ­ Set-point 1 proportional band (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1

This is the width of the proportional (modulation) band that is used by the PID control loop for setpoint 1. For example, if the setpoint was 100 psi, and this term was set to 10 psi, then the proportional band would be from 90 psi to 100 psi. A measured value of 90 psi would give high fire, and 100 psi would give low fire, assuming no integral or derivative terms were entered.
A value of 0 means no proportional band ­ the burner would stay at low fire until the high limit (Cut Out) is reached, then turn off. Proportional control is therefore needed to allow the burner to modulate.

3.4 Option 21.3 ­ Set-point 1 integral time (0 ­ 999 seconds) LV1
This is the integral time used in the PID control loop for setpoint 1. It may be set to any value from 0 to 999, seconds. If a value of 0 is entered the integral function is disabled, otherwise the time entered is the number of seconds the control will take to give an additional modulation change equal to that currently given by the proportional term. The lower the number (apart from zero), the more affect the integral function has. A large number will cause the integral term to act very slowly.

17

Integral control is required for the burner to accurately reach its setpoint.

3.5 Option 21.4 ­ Set-point 1 derivative time (0 ­ 999 seconds) LV1
This is the derivative time used in the PID control loop for setpoint 1. It may be set to any value from 0 to 999. A value of zero will disable the derivative function. A non-zero value will have the effect of `advancing’ the modulation rate change caused by a constantly changing measured value by the number of seconds given. A low value will have little effect; a large value will cause a large effect.
Derivative control is seldom needed for boilers, but can improve the response of the modulation system to sudden load changes. Too much can cause control instability.

3.6

Option 21.5 – Setpoint 1 control limit type (0 – 2) LV3

This option parameter defines the control limit type for setpoint 1. The control limits are used to automatically turn the burner off when it is not needed, and bring it back on when it is needed.

Option parameter 21.5 value 0
1
2

Meaning
No limits. The burner will run until another method is used to switch it off. Absolute limit. The values entered in option parameters 21.6 and 21.7 are the actual limit values. Deviation limit. The values entered in option parameters 21.6 and 21.7 represent a deviation (i.e. offset) from the setpoint 1 control value. This means that if the setpoint control value is changed, the limits are automatically changed correspondingly.

The following are examples of Deviation and Absolute limit. These examples assume the user is using Method Two approach (from Password entry in section 1.2). Alternately, method one can also be used.
Deviation Example ­ setting Opt 21.5 to 2 To maintain 100 psi on the boiler, cut out at 115 psi, cut in at 95 psi.
NOTE: Opt 15.5 ­ Boiler High Safety Limit ­ If this option is set to a nonzero, exceeding this value causes a non-volatile lockout.
Opt 21.1 Setpoint (22.1) …………. set to ………… 100 psi Opt 21.5 Control Type……………… set to ……………. 2 Opt 21.6 Cut In (22.6)…………….. set to ……………. 5 Opt 21.7 Cut Out (22.7)* ………….. set to ………….. 15
RESULTS: Boiler OFF (Cut Out) at…. …………………… 115 psi

18

Boiler ON (Cut In) at ……………………………. 95 psi Boiler maintains (Setpoint) ………………….. 100 psi via PID Changing ONLY the Setpoint ­ Opt 21.1 (22.2) …………….change to………. 60 psi NEW RESULTS from Setpoint Change: Boiler OFF (Cut Out) at ………………………… 75 psi Boiler ON (Cut In) at ……………………………. 55 psi Boiler maintains (Setpoint) ……………………. 60 psi via PID
NOTE: NEW I (integral time) and D (derivative time) values – Option Parameters 21.3(22.3) and 21.4(22.4), may be required to achieve desired results.

) represents PID2
3.7 Option 21.6 – Setpoint 1 low limit control value (Cut In) (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
If the boiler is off due to a controlled shutdown, this parameter defines the measured value at which the boiler will be turned on again.
3.8 Option 21.7 – Setpoint 1 high limit control value (Cut Out) (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
19

If the boiler is on and firing, this parameter defines the measured value at which the boiler will be turned off via a controlled shutdown.
3.9 Option 21.8 ­ Remote Setpoint 1 zero (4ma) value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
This is the zero value for the remote setpoint function specified by option parameter 20.7.
3.10 Option 21.9 ­ Remote Setpoint 1 span (20mA) value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
This is the span value for the remote setpoint function specified by option parameter 20.7.
3.11 Option 22.0 ­ PID (set-point) 2 enable (0 – 1) LV1
This option parameter is used to select setpoint 2.
3.12 Option 22.1 ­ Set-point 2 control value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
This is the control value used in the PID control loop for setpoint 2. When the control is in auto mode, the PID control loop will modulate the boiler to maintain the measured value at the same level as set by this parameter.
3.13 Option 22.2 ­ Set-point 2 proportional band (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
This is the width of the proportional (modulation) band that is used by the PID control loop for setpoint 2. For example, if the setpoint was 100 psi, and this term was set to 10 psi, then the proportional band would be from 90 to 100 psi. A measured value of 90 psi would give high fire, and 100 psi would give low fire, assuming no integral or derivative terms were entered. A value of 0 means no proportional band ­ the burner would stay at low fire until the high limit (Cut Out) is reached, then turn off. Proportional control is therefore needed to allow the burner to modulate.
3.14 Option 22.3 ­ Set-point 2 integral term (0 ­ 999 seconds) LV1
This is the integral time used in the PID control loop for setpoint 2. It may be set to any value from 0 to 999, seconds. If a value of 0 is entered the integral function is disabled, otherwise the time entered is the number of seconds the control will take to give an additional modulation change equal to that currently given by the proportional term. The lower the number (apart from zero), the more affect the integral function has. A large number will cause the integral term to act very slowly. Integral control is required for the burner to accurately reach its setpoint.
20

3.15 Option 22.4 ­ Set-point 2 derivative term (0 – 100) LV1
This is the derivative time used in the PID control loop for setpoint 2. It may be set to any value from 0 to 999. A value of zero will disable the derivative function. A non-zero value will have the effect of `advancing’ the modulation rate change caused by a constantly changing measured value by the number of seconds given. A low value will have little effect; a large value will cause a large effect.
Derivative control is seldom needed for boilers, but can improve the response of the modulation system to sudden load changes. Too much can cause control instability.

3.16 Option 22.5 – Setpoint 2 control limit type (0 – 2) LV3

This option parameter defines the control limit type for setpoint 2. The control limits are used to automatically turn the burner off when it is not needed, and bring it back on when it is needed.

Option parameter 22.5 value 0
1
2

Meaning
No limits. The burner will run until another method is used to switch it off. Absolute limit. The values entered in option parameters 22.6 and 22.7 are the actual limit values. Deviation limit. The values entered in option parameters 22.6 and 22.7 represent a deviation (i.e. offset) from the setpoint 1 control value. This means that if the setpoint control value is changed, the limits are automatically changed correspondingly.

3.17 Option 22.6 – Setpoint 2 low limit control value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1

If the boiler is off due to a controlled shutdown, this parameter defines the measured value at which the boiler will be turned on again.
3.18 Option 22.7 – Setpoint 2 high limit control value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1

If the boiler is on and firing, this parameter defines the measured value at which the boiler will be turned off via a controlled shutdown.

3.19 Option 22.8 ­ Remote Setpoint 2 zero (4mA) value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1 This is the zero value for the remote setpoint function specified by option parameter 20.7.

21

3.20 Option 22.9 ­ Remote Setpoint 2 span (20mA) value (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
This is the span value for the remote setpoint function specified by option parameter 20.7.
3.21 Option 23.0 ­ Warming Enable (0 or 1) LV1
This parameter allows a warming function to be applied to the boiler, and makes option parameters 23.1 and 23.2 available. If zero is entered, no warming limit is applied.
3.22 Option 23.1 ­ Warming Limit (0 – 999 / 00.0 – 99.9 / 0.00 – 9.99) LV1
If, when the burner starts up and reaches modulation, the measured pressure / temperature value is lower than that specified here, the control will hold the boiler at low fire until the value specified is reached. The control will hold the boiler at low fire (in status 15) indefinitely unless a non-zero time has been entered in option parameter 23.2. Note: If during normal modulation, the measured value falls below this limit having once been above it, the warming function will not be re-applied. The warming function is only applied on a burner start-up.
3.23 Option 23.2 ­ Warming Time (0 to 999 minutes) LV1
This parameter specifies a maximum time to hold the burner at low fire for, before ignoring the warming limit and allowing normal modulation. Additionally, when the burner goes off (for any reason other than power interruption), and the measured value falls below the warming limit, the warming function will not be activated again until this time has passed. NOTE: Further parameters (up to 29.9) may be available here if they are part of a users program or non-standard manufacturers program.
4 Manual Modulation and Low Fire Hold
4.1 AUTO/MAN key LV1 Pressing AUTO/MAN key toggles the burner in and out of manual or automatic modulation. To place the boiler in manual from automatic no password is required.
1. Press the AUTO/MAN key 2. Use the up/down arrow keys to set the firing rate. 3. Press the AUTO key to place in automatic
22

Note: The firing rate will be shown on the display. This function can be disabled via option parameter 1.1. To do so requires the suppliers (highest) passcode.
4.2 Low Fire Hold LV1
Pressing the Low Fire Hold button will return burner to low fire and remain there.. To exit press the AUTO button.
5 Options 24.x ­ Sequencing
Sequencing (lead/lag) is managed by using the “setpoint select” function internally to choose between Setpoint 1 and Setpoint 2 via the communications bus between NX6100’s. The “lead” or “master” boiler controls the “lag” or “slave” boiler(s) by switching them from setpoint 2 (“lag stand by” or “banking”) to the setpoint 1 values, and turns on based on Option 24.6 (lag (slave) On Rate) value. The lead boiler will override the modulation rate of the last lag boiler to come on and cause it to modulate in unison with the lead (master) boiler. If both the lead (master) boiler and last lag (slave) boiler remain above the Option 24.6 value another lag (slave) boiler will be started after Option 24.7 (lag (slave) on delay) value has expired. Other lags (slaves) that are on will remain at high fire until the last lag is turned off. At this point, the next lag boiler will begin to modulate with the lead (master) and so on until the lead (master) is carrying the load. The sequence in which boilers are turned on is set in Option 24.1-24.3 via communications addresses of each NX6100. When a lead (master) boiler is deselected as lead (master) and Option 24.0 has not been changed to 0, the boiler remains as lead (master) until a new lead (master) takes control. Once the new lead (master) takes control, the previous lead (master) may be turned off based on the demand and Option 24.1-24.3 settings.
If the lead (master) boiler is turned off, or fails to come on within three minutes, while operating as the lead, sequencing will be disabled and all lag (slave) boilers will revert to their own PID settings. Should a lag boiler fail to come on within three minutes, or the NX6100 is faulted, sequencing will immediately call for the next lag in the priority list.
If the lead (master) boiler is switched to manual modulation it will remain as lead bringing on lag (slave) boilers as required. This will allow the operator to “base load” a lead boiler if required.
The NX6100 can be the “master” (lead) boiler in a system that has PPC5000 or NX3100/4100 series as the communications message are the same. The NX6100 cannot be controlled by the PPC5000 or NX3100/4100 series controls as a boiler.
Stand by or Banking values
The “lag stand by” or “banking” temperature or pressure is entered as PID 2 or Setpoint 2 values however, options 22.2, 22.3, 22.4 (the P, I and D) values are unnecessary as the burner will start and remain at low fire until the “lag stand by” or “banking” cut out is reached. These values will be entered by;
1. Setting option parameter 22.0 to 1 (Enable Setpoint 2) 2. Setting option parameter 22.1 to the desired setpoint value when in stand by. 3. Setting option parameter 22.5 to 1 (Absolute Value) 4. Setting option parameter 22.6 to the desired cut in value when in stand by. 5. Setting option parameter 22.7 to the desired cut out value when in stand by.
23

For example: If the normal operating setpoint is 100 PSI, and the desired stand by pressure is 75 PSI. The setup would be:

Option Parameter 22.0 22.1 22.5 22.6 22.7

Setting 1 75 1 75 (cut in or minimum pressure) 80 (cut out or maximum pressure)

STANDBY WATER TEMPERATURE FOR STEAM BOILER

If a steam boiler is being banked based on boiler temperature, a temperature sensor must be fitted into the boiler water jacket. The temperature sensor must be a 4-20mA device. If this device is to be loop-powered by the NX6100, it should be connected to the 30V output, “sensor supply” on PA16 and PA15. See option 25.0 ­ 25.4.

Example:
Fireye Temp. Sensor ­ TS350 Sensor Terminal (1) 4-20mA Sensor Terminal (2) Current
The language program needs to be 15 or higher. EK200 shows the current version

Option/Parameters

20.7 = 0 Using AUX. input 5 25.0 = 5, AUX 5 input 25.1 = 32, Zero value of temp. sensor 25.2 = 350, Span value of temp. sensor 25.3 = Cut-in temp. 25.4 = Cut-out temp.

No PID involved, lag boiler will turn on and off on low fire.

Relevant Engineers Keys:

EK136, 0 = inactive. Only active when held off by the lead boiler. EK159, Actual water temp.
NOTE: When using sequencing, setpoint 2 is unavailable for use with any digital input unless the boiler is removed from sequencing completely.

5.1 Option 24.0 Sequence Slaves (number of boilers) (0-3) LV1

This option is set to 1, 2 or 3 in each NX6100 to equal the number of lag “slave” boilers in the system. Once set, option parameters 24.1, 24.2, and 24.3 will become available. If the value is set to 0 the boiler will be taken out of sequencing and operate on its own PID. OPTION PARAMETER 00.6 MUST BE SET TO 0 FOR SEQUENCING TO OPERATE

24

5.2 Option 24.1 -24.3 Priority Number(s) LV1
The order in which boilers sequence on is entered as the communication address(s) of the boilers in Options 24.1, 24.2 and 24.3. The first to be turned on will have a priority number one above that of the lead boiler.

For example: If the communications address of the four boilers were 1, 2, 3, and 4 (set in Option 0.2), boiler 1 master (lead), with the following entered in Options 24.1-24.3

Option parameter 24.x value 24.1 24.2 24.3

Comms. Address
2 3 4

Boiler
2 3 4

The sequencing order would be boiler 2, 3 and 4. If boiler 2 were set to lead via Option 24.5, the order would be boiler 3, 4 and 1. Setting boiler 3 to master (lead), the order would be boiler 4, 1 and 2. Other sequencing orders can be achieved by changing the communications address entered in Options 24.1-24.3.

Note: Communications addresses should be changed while the boilers are not in sequencing (more than one boiler on) so as not to disrupt operation.

5.3 Option 24.4 – Reserved

5.4 Option 24.5 ­ Lead (master) Boiler Select Method LV1
This option parameter selects the lead (master) boiler via the keypad, digital input or communications (Comfire 2). The values are:
0 = Not lead, operates on own PID or as commanded by master (lead) 1 = lead (master) via Keypad 2 = lead (master) via digital input. (Digital Input Selected via Option 20.8) 3 = lead (master) via communications such as Comfire 2.
Note: When a lead (master) boiler is deselected as lead (master) and Option 24.0 has not been changed to 0, the boiler remains as lead (master) until a new lead (master) takes control. Once the new lead (master) takes control, the previous lead (master) may be turned off based on the demand and Option 24.1-24.3 settings.

25

5.5 Option 24.6 ­ lag (slave) On Rate (0-100%) LV1
This value determines the firing rate of the lead (master) boiler at which the first and all subsequent slave(s) (lag) boilers come on. The slave(s) (lag) boiler(s) will be delayed in coming on by the time set in Option parameter 24.7. At this point, the lead (master) and the will begin to modulate in unison. If the lead (master) and modulate above this point, the next as determined by priority number (Option 24.1, 24.2, 24.3) will be turned on. When more than one boiler is on, the master and last slave will modulate in unison while the other slaves are held at high fire.
5.6 Option 24.7 ­ lag (slave) On Delay (0-999 minutes) LV1
This option sets the time delay between the modulation rate of the lead (master) boiler (and last boiler on if any) exceeding the value set in Option 24.6 and the next being turned on.
5.7 Option 24.8 ­ lag (slave) Off Rate (0-100%) LV3
When the lead (master) boiler and last boiler modulate below this modulation rate and exceed the value set in Option 24.9, the last turned on will be turned off. At this point, the lead (master) and the previous (if any) turned on will begin to modulate in unison until they together are below this setting. This will continue until only the lead (master) boiler remains on.
5.8 Option 24.9 ­ lag (slave) Off Delay (0-999 minutes) LV3
This option sets the time delay between the modulation rate is at or below the value set in Option 24.8 and the last turned on being turned off. This also sets the time delay between successive slaves (lag) being turned off should the modulation rate stay below the setting in Option 24.8.
5.9 Option 25.0 ­ Banking based on temperature LV3
This option sets which input will be used and the 4-20mA current input from the temperature sensor must be connected into one of the 5 possible current inputs:
0 = lag banking on temperature is not enabled. NOTE: Inputs 1 through 4 and remote tracking are externally powered. See NOTE below for use with loop- powered sensor.
1 = uses analog input 1. PA7(+) PA11(-). 2 = uses analog input 2. PA8(+) PA11(-). 3 = uses analog input 3. PA9(+) PA11(-).
26

4 = uses analog input 4. PA12(+) PA11(-). This input circuit needs an external 220-Ohm burden resistor.
5 = uses the remote tracking input as a 4-20mA input. PA15(+), PA14(-) and option 20.7 must be set to 0 and jumper JP2 must be set to the “IN” position (which sets the auxiliary input to be 4-20mA).
NOTE – If a loop-powered sensor is used, the “+” to the sensor is taken from PA16 for all inputs, and the “-” from
the sensor to PA7, PA8, PA9, PA12 or PA15 depending on which input number is to be used. If the temperature sensor gives a current feedback that is out of range, i.e. Less than 3.5mA or greater than 21mA, lag banking on temperature will be cancelled and the sequence lag boiler will bank based on steam pressure.
The following option parameters are only visible if option 25.0 is non-zero:
5.10 Option 25.1 ­ Water temperature zero value LV3
Sets the zero value for the 4-20mA input (usually 0 for a 0-xxx degree temperature sensor).
5.11 Option 25.2 ­ Water temperature span value LV3
Sets the span value for the 4-20mA input (i.e. the sensor range xxx).
5.12 Option 25.3 ­ Water temperature cut-in LV1
Sets the low banking cut-in temperature.
5.13 Option 25.4 ­ Water temperature cut-out LV1
Sets the high banking cut-out temperature.
6 Resetting the Control
To reset the Nexus, the MUTE/RESET key will have to be pressed and held for one second to first silence (mute) the alarm and then a second press for three seconds to clear the fault. A prolonged key press will do both. (See Touchscreen Section 2.5) NOTE: The key changes from MUTE to RESET if an alarm has been silenced. If for some reason the Nexus detects a fault, the cause of the fault will be displayed if still present. If not displayed, using the ENGINEERS tab will reveal the fault (see section 8.6).

7 Start-up sequence
When a fuel selection is made and the `burner select’ (PE6) signal is given to start up the burner, the control runs through the sequence described below. If a gas profile is selected, the control also performs safety valve pressure proving in parallel with the start-up sequence (see section 4.3 in Fireye Bulletin NEX-6101).

Description

Non-volatile lockout Burner off

Open fuel valve

The burner is held in this state until all faults are removed.
The burner is checked to make sure that it has switched off completely. This includes main fuel safety valves closed, no flame signal and a no air pressure’ signal. The control will remain in this state until there is a call for heat. The control waits for both a burner select and a fuel/air profile to be selected. Progression to stage 3 or 5 maybe held off by external influences, e.g. Communications control or digital input controlled by an external relay. E.g. building automation system If gas and valve proving are selected, the gas motor is moved up for five seconds to allow any gas in the test section to be vented easily during the proving sequence. The fuel motor is held in position until step 1 of the safety valve proving sequence (open main valve 2, or vent valve) is completed. If gas is selected, the gas valve proving sequence begins. The fuel and air motors are moved down until they stop. The final positions are compared with the closed positions stored in memory. The burner motor is started and air pressure prove time t1 is initiated. The selected motors are moved up towards the purge position, unless thefan start early’ option parameter has been set in which case the motors will not move until that time has expired. See Option Parameter 7.0.
When the air pressure prove time t1 has elapsed, the air pressure switch must give a pressure’ signal or the control will lockout the burner. If primary air is selected both primary and secondary air signals must change from ‘no pressure’ topressure’ status. The selected motors are moved up until they stop.
Once the servo-motors are at their purge positions the timed prepurge t2 is initiated.
When t2 has elapsed, the fuel and the air motors are moved to the ignition position for the selected profile. The control will wait for the gas valve proving sequence to finish if it is still in progress.

Description
Once the fuel and air motors are at their ignition positions, the ignition transformer output is energized and pre-ignition time t3 is initiated. The Ignition transformer only is on at this stage.
Once t3 has elapsed then: When firing on Gas, the pilot valve is energized and safety time t4 is initiated. Main Gas Valve 1 may also be energized if required and selected for pilot. When firing on Oil, the pilot valve is energized and safety time t4 is initiated. Main Oil valves may also be energized if Direct Ignition with Oil is selected. The ignition output may terminate at the end of t4 if Early Spark Termination is set by option 14.6. See Gas/Oil Start-up Timing Charts (following this table).
When the first safety time t4 has expired, a flame must be detected or the control will proceed to safety shutdown and lockout the burner.
The ignition transformer may be ON or OFF as set by option 14.6.
Once the pilot interval time t5 has elapsed, the ignition transformer is turned off, the second (and first if not already open) main valve output(s) for gas or main oil valve output for oil is energized and the second safety time t6 is initiated. If firing on oil and ignition with main valve was selected the main oil valve will have already opened for pilot ignition.
The ignition transformer may be ON or OFF as set by option 14.6.
When the second safety time t6 has expired, the pilot valve output is turned off. If permanent pilot is selected and the burner is firing on gas the pilot will remain open with the main valves. Main interval time t7 is initiated. This allows the main flame to stabilize before modulating.
When interval time t7 has elapsed, the flame is considered established and the fuel and air motors are moved from their ignition positions to their low fire positions.
Once the fuel and air motors reach their low fire positions, they are modulated according to the demand placed on the burner.
If the fuel selection is changed or the `burner on’ signal is removed, the main valve output(s) are turned off. The fuel motor is moved to its closed position, and the selected motor(s) are moved to their purge position(s), if a post purge is selected and the post purge time is initiated.
When the post purge time has elapsed, the burner motor is turned off and the control returns to state 1 to wait for another startup.

Faults and fault finding

8.1 The fault display

The NX6100 carries out a number of internal and external checks during operation. If a fault is found, a fault number (displayed with a text description) is used to identify the type of problem. A list of fault numbers may be found later in this chapter.

To view or review faults, use the MENU button, the FAULT/EVENT LOG button. (See Sections 2.9 and 2.11)

Many of the faults detected and displayed by the controller will cause a non- volatile lockout of the burner, that is to say that removing the power to the controller will not cancel a fault. Some other fault or limit messages will be displayed as a warning but operation of the burner will not be affected.

Each fault number is prefixed on the display by a letter as follows:

F

This means that a fault has occurred and is still present.

The fault may be internal or external to the controller.

C

This means that a fault did occur but has now cleared.

L

This means a programmed limit has been exceeded.

For example :

217PSI Actual AUTO F10:Flame Failure

Many of the faults detected and displayed by the controller will cause a non- volatile lockout of the burner. Other faults will be displayed as a warning but operation of the burner will not be affected. A complete list of faults may be found later in this chapter.
Some fault information may be lost from the display if power is interrupted. However, the fault history in the display is retained by battery back up.
8.2 What to do when a fault occurs
If faults or limits are present and either the alarm or limit alarm/relay is on,(closed), then press the MUTE RESET key to mute the alarm (open the relay contacts). (See Touchscreen Section 2.9)
Take note of the fault message and use the Fault Listing to identify why the fault occurred.
If the faults, which cause a non-volatile lockout, are still present when the alarm is muted, then the alarm will operate again when the alarm clears, to indicate to the operator that the control burner may be restarted.
Once all faults have been diagnosed, rectified and cleared, press the MUTE RESET key for approximately three seconds to remove the fault messages and re- start the burner.
The function of the MUTE RESET key may also be achieved via Comview or by using the FAULT MUTE input. See option parameter 1.2 in Fireye Bulletin NEX-6101.

30

8.3 Non-volatile lockout

If power is removed from the controller while a fault is still present, the fault will be stored in non-volatile memory. When power is restored to the controller, the fault number will still be present and it will be necessary to remove the fault before restarting the burner.
8.4 Fault subsets

As an aid to fault finding, most faults also have a fault subset that gives additional information about the type of fault or what the burner was doing when the fault occurred. Where applicable, the subsets are given in the fault listing in section 8.5. The fault subsets can be viewed using the engineer’s key (see section 8.6).

Description

F64

Profile Invalid

This fault means that the controller can’t fire the currently selected profile because it isn’t sure it still matches the

burner / site configuration. It could lead to a hazardous

situation.

There are three possible causes to this fault :

1 ­ A drive has been commissioned in this profile but has now been deselected. E.g. – If a profile is commissioned with two air dampers but then the second air damper is deselected with option parameter 4.0 to 4.9, then obviously the profile is no longer valid.

Subset : Drive number (0 to 9)

2 ­ Servo / Drive changed. If the system is commissioned then later one of the servos is changed for a new one (i.e. different serial number), any profiles that use the original at servo are now considered invalid. (This is to ensure that the maintenance engineer checks that the new servo is mechanically fixed the same way as the original one.)

Subset : Invalid profile + 100 (101 to 104).

3 ­ The selected profile has been uploaded from a PC, but has not been verified on this burner.

Subset : Invalid profile + 100 (101 to 104).

In all cases the F64 can be cleared by switching to another (valid/good) profile, or by re-commissioning the profile in commission ratio’ mode, making sure all points up to and including high fire are acknowledged using the NEXT’ key (or `ENTER’ if the points are adjusted).

F65

Power-up Lockout The controller has locked out on power-up. This will normally

be because option parameter 1.0 is set to 1.

8.6 The engineer’s tab
By selecting the engineer’s tab it is possible to read the values of internal system variables and external input and output states. It is also possible to see the values of fault subsets, in order to obtain more detailed information about a fault that has occurred. When using the engineer’s tab it is not possible to change any parameters. Therefore, it is not possible to affect the operation of the burner. After pressing the MENU button, press BURNER SETTING button, then the Engineers Values tab. (See Touchscreen Section 2.9)
8.7 System Event/Fault history.
The NX6100 stores information on events and faults. The memory in the unit will store the last 128 events/faults, and associated status data and, as an option, a date and time stamp. The 100 most recent events/faults are available via the display unit and all 128 are available though Comfire 2.

PID Tutorial
PID Adjustment
The NX6100 utilizes and advanced algorithm in order to maintain setpoint over a variety of load conditions. This three term PID can be infinitely adjusted to suit almost any application. The operator should have a basic understanding of the relationship between the three terms – proportional, integral and derivative.
Proportional
Typical older modulating systems employ only proportional control. This would be similar to the slide wire type found on most steam boilers. When using only a proportional control the system rarely achieves setpoint as the burner firing rate is lowered as the pressure comes up. At some point the input meets the actual demand and the pressure no longer raises or lowers, thus an offset between desired setpoint and actual operating pressure occurs. The only time the pressure and setpoint are the same is if the actual load equals the lowest firing rate of the burner, this is rare. An example of proportional only set up might be; Setpoint is 100 PSI, proportional range is 10 PSI. That is low fire is at 100 PSI, high fire is at 90 PSI with a 1:1 relationship in between, e.g.: 95PSI equals 50% rate.
Integral
If the integral term is turned on, the control compares the actual pressure against setpoint at an adjustable interval. If there is an offset, the firing rate is increased by a small percentage until the next interval. This will continue until the pressure equals the setpoint. The same routine occurs as the pressure rises above the setpoint. Too much or too little integral will cause over and undershoot of the setpoint. Integral is set in seconds per repeat in the NX6100.
For example, if the P were set at 10 psi with a boiler set point of 100 psi, the burner would first remain at high fire until the pressure reached 90 psi, and then start to modulate down. If the load was equal to 50% firing rate, the pressure would stall at 95 psi. Adding and “I” value of 10 would ramp the output up to 100% (high fire) in 10 seconds, assuming no change in the boiler pressure. Setting and “I” value of 300 increases the output up to 100% (high fire) in 5 minute (300 seconds). As the boiler reaches setpoint, the same timing effect occurs above setpoint. Therefore, too much “I” can cause over/under shoot as loads change. Too little “I” may cause rapid hunting.
Derivative
Enabling the derivative has the effect of sensing the rate of change in the process variable (pressure or temperature) and increasing or holding up the firing rate output despite the integral term. This in effect amplifies the output to anticipate the effect of a sudden change in load demand. Derivative acts inversely when the setpoint is exceeded. Derivative is set in seconds on the NX6100.
Start with a P value of about 10% of setpoint, and an I value of 20 seconds with a D value of 5 seconds. After observing the operation through normal load swings, adjust each value, usually one at a time, and observe the results. When making a change it is recommended the value be doubled or halved to determine which direction you need to go. Bear in mind, the burner should not continuously hunt or swing to maintain the desired setpoint. It is normal for a slight over and undershoots of setpoint during serious load changes. The values for the PID’s are found at option parameters 21.2, 21.3 and 21.4 for setpoint 1 (PID1), and 22.2, 22.3 and 22.4 for setpoint 2 (PID2). These values are adjustable using the Site Passcode 154.

11 Combustion Profile Setup Guideline
It is safe to say that most burners do not have fuel and air control devices that have linear flow characteristics. When commissioning the Fireye Nexus/PPC parallel positioning system, the following procedure will help assure the maximum benefit will be realized. Before starting the installation, the commissioning engineer should try to verify the maximum combustion air damper (flow) position so as to know the “target” high fire position. This can be done by rotating the original jack shaft before it is removed and measuring the air damper opening. If possible, it should be marked for reference.
There are 24 points available for creating a profile, P0 (closed/off) to P23 (high fire). The first three positions, P0, P1&P2 are required to reach ignition which may or may not be the same as low fire (P3). After establishing a good low fire and entering the values at P3, the display will now indicate P4 with the drives at the P3 position. At this time the main air drive or drives should be increased a minimum of one degree or until the observed oxygen level increases approximately 1.0 to 2%, do not press enter at this time. At this point the fuel drive should be increased slowly to bring the oxygen level back down to the desired level and entered at this time. Following this procedure from low to high fire will yield a relatively linear profile. That is to say, each position will increase the fuel and air flows by nearly equal amounts from low to high fire, thus making the profile somewhat linear. This will aid in setting up O2 trim.
The NX6100’s Engineers Key 44 (see section 8.8) displays the actual O2 value of the Fireye oxygen probe when fitted. It should be noted that the reading of the Fireye probe will be between 1 and 1.5% lower than most portable combustion analyzers. This is normal and due to the difference between wet and dry samples. Bear in mind the NX6100 will trim to the value of the Fireye probe, not to the value of a portable analyzer.

For example:

Position P3 P4 P5 P6 P7 P8 P9 P10 P11 P12 P13

Air Drive 5.0 7.5 12.0 17.0 24.0 29.0 35.0 43.0 53.0 66.0 80.0

Fuel Drive 15.0 18.0 22.0 28.0 33.0 38.0 45.0 55.0 67.0 79.0 88.0

Observed O2% 7.0 7.0 6.0 5.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5

Increased O2% 8.5 8.5 7.5 6.5 5.5 5.5 5.5 5.0 5.0 5.0
High Fire

NOTE: The angular change in the air drive position required to achieve the 1.0 to 2.0% increase in observed oxygen level may increase as the burner fires at higher rates. This is normal as the air “damper” will not likely be linear. When approaching high fire large increases in the air drive servomotor travel may be required to increase the oxygen reading by 1.0 to 2.0%. As a rule, this should be avoided as the burner is potentially “out

58

of air” and in so doing, the effective input to the boiler will be negligible. This would also affect the operation of oxygen trim should this option be used.
12 Fireye NX6100 Efficiency Calculations
Fireye NX6100 controls can display calculated combustion efficiency.
For the displayed efficiency to be meaningful the correct values for Calorific Value and Hydro-Carbon Ratio for the fuel in use must be entered in the related Fireye NX6100 option parameters.
Efficiency may be displayed as Net or Gross.
The calorific value of a fuel is the heat given out when unit quantity of the fuel is completely burnt, any fuel containing hydrogen has two calorific values, these being the gross or higher calorific value and the net or lower calorific value.
The gross calorific value is the heat given out when unit quantity of fuel at 15.6 oC (60 oF) is completely burnt and the products of combustion are cooled to 15.6 oC (60 oF), as such any steam present in the products of combustion due to the burning of the hydrogen will be condensed to water, giving up its latent heat of vaporization and some of its sensible heat loss. This heat recovery is not possible under practical conditions and the net value is approximately the gross value less this quantity of heat which is usually taken at 2.45 MJ/Kg of steam formed.
Therefore if gross efficiency is required, gross calorific value is used and the latent heat of vaporization due to any steam present in the products of combustion is taken as a loss in the efficiency calculation.
However, if net efficiency is required, net calorific value is used and therefore the latent heat of vaporization due to any steam present in the products of combustion is already taken into account, so the latent heat loss in the efficiency equation is set to zero.
In addition when considering gross efficiency it is normal to also take account to the boiler radiated heat loss. This will be a fixed heat loss from the boiler shell in the order of 1% to 3% of the boiler high fire output, which if the burner is operating with say a 6 to 1 turn down would equate to a 6% to 18% loss at low fire.
Comparison of Fireye NX6100 with Hand Held Equipment
When comparing the efficiency as displayed by the NX6100 control and other equipment it is important to ensure the same parameters are being used by both units.

  1. Ensure the efficiency is selected to be either net or gross in both units, hand held equipment usually uses net since it is rare for hand held equipment to have knowledge of the boiler firing rate to include the radiated heat loss.

  2. Ensure the same calorific value is being used by both units. 3) Ensure the same value for hydro-carbon ratio is being used by both units. 4) Ensure the ambient (inlet) temperature being measured by the hand held is physically at the air intake
    to the burner, as it should be for the NX6100. If the hand held equipment does not measure the inlet temperature, ensure the value it is using for ambient air temperature is representative of the application. 5) Ensure the flue temperature and oxygen value are being measured at the same location in the flue to reduce the possibility of errors being introduced due to stratification of the flue gas.
    59

  3. Fireye O2 probes measure oxygen in the flue without extracting and drying flue gases. If attempting to compare the oxygen values being measured by the NX6100 and a hand held equipment ensure the value being given by the hand held is corrected from a dry to a wet’ value, as it will almost certainly be measured as adry’ value. The water being removed to prevent damage to the sensor cells in the hand held equipment.
    When comparing the values of efficiency displayed by the NX6100 equipment and hand held equipment, first check that the following values are the same or very close:

  4. Inlet temperature. 2) Flue gas temperature. 3) Calorific value 4) Hydro- carbon ratio. 5) Oxygen value (after making correction for dry to wet on the hand held). 6) Selection of net or gross. 7) If a radiated heat loss value is being included ensure the hand held equipment has corrected the value
    for the current firing rate of the burner.
    Other points to remember: In a typical package boiler radiation losses are usually in the order of 3%, blow down losses typically 2% and flue gas losses 15% to 20%. Giving a typical overall efficiency of 100 – 3 – 2 – 20 = 75%. The major area for attention to improve boiler efficiency is the flue gas losses, with the object of minimizing excess air, within the bounds of safe and reliable boiler operation. O2 Trim is the best tool for ensuring consistent optimum combustion and minimization of excess air.
    The NX6100 ensures consistent fuel: air ratios. The Fireye O2 Trim option continuously compensates for changes that affect efficient combustion due to such variables as: viscosity of liquid fuels, density of gaseous fuels, changes in temperature of fuels, changes in gas and oil pressures, worn and damaged burners, dirty burners, scaling if boiler tubes, ambient temperature, barometric pressure and tramp air.
