PROPORTIONING RANGE Tha proportiOning range (also caliEld Ihrottling range usually edends above the set poim (Fig. 9). alihOugh Qrl some controllers it extends on lxlth sides 01 the set point. Pressure or temperature variations cause the bellows or diaphragm to move, caUSing the potentiometer Wiper (R lerminall to move across its windings. This varies lhe re- sistanCe between R and B, and Rand W. The resu1ting cir- cuit urtJalance drives a modulating motor or mod:.JlalinQ valve aCtuator and regulates the firing rale. (For a detailed explanation of this operation, refer to the Flame Safeguard Reference on Firing Rale Controls, 10rm 70-8117.) As the controliEld variable rises, the Wiper will move toward the W end of lhe potentiometer, driving the motor or actuator to- ward its Closed position ard decraasing the firing rate. As lhe controliEld variable talis, lhe wiper will move 'award the B end, driving the motor or actuator toward its open posi- tion and increasing the firing rate.

NOTE: If using tile controller with a CO!T'Pressor, install a dampening device (wch as a needle valve. header, or surge lank) to dampen pulsations which can damage the controller or reduce its life. To mounllhe conlroller alongside the pressure gauge (Fig. 11), remove the gauge. In its place. install a steam trap with a lee on tap. Using elbows and pipe nipples, mount the controller and pressure gauge on the ends of Ihe tee. If it is not convenient to mount lhe controlier alongside the pressure gauge, install a steam trap in the fitting pro- vided by the boiler manufacturer. If there is no 1ilting. mount the steam trap al a location recommended by the boiler manufacturer. Screw Ihe controller directly to Ine steam trap. If there is ex.cessive Vibration at the boiler that mayad- versely affact the operation of the controller, the controller should be mounted' at a remote location. All piping from the boiler must 'os suitable and solidly mounted. The pip- ing must be properlV pitChed to drain all cOndensation back to the boiler. A steam trap must be mountEKl between the remote piping and the controller. HONEYWELL PRESSURE CONTROLLERS AVAILABLE FOR USE ON STEAM BOILERS AND HOT WATER HEA,TING SYSTEMS Honeywell pressU/8 controllers are fistEKl in Table II al the el"d 01 this section. along with their applications, switch types, al"d operating pressure ranges.

[n addition to a prorortioning potenti- ometer, it has an spst swilCh with a subHacUve ditferenlial that breaks on pressure rise. Tha main scale is set at the manmum pressure desirEKl. The differential is adjustEKl in- stead of the prcportioning range. Tl"le proportioning tange will automatically be sat 10 approximately 85Percent of the differenlial. (The differential sca[ap1ale is graduated from A to F with a MIN value below A. Refer to the P455 instruc- tion sheet for values 01 the differential and proportioning range.) 223 71-97558-' FIG. 12- HONEYWEll PRESSURE CONTROLLERS AVAILABLE FOR USE ON STEAM BOILERS MID HOT WATER HEATING SYSTEMS. '.' The P455 also has a UNISON/SEQUENCE adjust- ment, which provides a choice 01 firing rale at burner startl.P. The odjusling dial is located just below the wiper armof the potentiometer (Fig. 2?). The dial is turned so Ihe arrow is at Ufor unison q:)(lralibn, at S for sequence cpera· lion, or at one of 3 inlermediale positions, Fig. 13 sh(w,rs the operation at Ihe P455 for each of these p::lSitions. In (he UNISON position, Ihe prcportioning range is: en- tirely within Ihe differential range, so the on-ott swi'ch and the prClJX)rtloning potentiometer are functioning at the same Ifme. When Ihe pressure falls to the sel point minus the differential, Ihe on-oN switch makes and the burner Is lumacl on. The potentiometer wiper is aU the way over to the Bend, lhe firing rate Controls are a! the high fire jXlSi- tion. and the bUrner starts al high fire, As the burner heats l4=l and the pressure increases, the wiper moves toward the W end of the potentiometer. It the pressure contlnues 10 Increase, the Wiper moves all the way to the Wend and !he firing rate conlrols are at the low tire ~ilion. Ordinar- Ily, modulallon keeps the pressure belW9Eln thess posi- lions within lhe proportioning range. If It prOblem devek:ps or the Iced drops suddenly, and the pressure continues 10 rise, the on~f'I' switch breaks and shuts down lhe bUrner when the pressure reaches lhe main scale sel point. In the SEQUENCE posilion, Ihe prqx>rtionlng range is entirely below Ihe differenlial range, so the on~ff switch and the proportioning potentiomeler are not funclioning al 224 the same time. As in the UNISON position, when the pres- sure falls 10 lhe sel point minus Ihe differential, Ihe on-off switch makes and the burner is turned on. However, the potentiometer wiper is all the way over to the Wend, the 1iring rale controls are al the low tire position, and the burner starts at low fire, It the pressure continues to fall be- 10re the burner can heat up, the Wiper moves toward the B end at the poten/iometer. If the pressure 1alls far enough, Ihe wiper moves all the way 10 the B end and the firing rate controls at the l1igh fire posilion. As the burner heats l.4) and the pressure increases, the Wiper moves toward the Wend at the potentiomete(. Again, the pressure is ordinar- ily kept within the proportioning range. t1the pressure con- linues to rise, the wiper moves all the way 10 theW end and lhe 1iring rale contrOlS are at the low tire jXlSilian. The burner slays at low 1ire as the pressure increases through the differential range, and is Shut do ·:n when Ihe pressure react'19S the main scale sel point. In an intermecliale jXlSition, the proportioning potenti- ometer is functioning partly wllhin the differential range of the an~N switch-the amount varies with the ~ilion. This provides a ChOice of lhe firing rale-somewhere be- tween low 1ire and high fire-al burner startl4=l when the on~ff switch makes. As shown In Fig. 13, the pressure range over which the burner will operate at low fjre also varies with the position 011he UNISON/SEQUENCE dial. • ( -"'GH • ,,~t , ,.

PRESSURE CONTROLLERS (PRESSURE SWITCHES) USED IN GAS BURNER SYSTEMS The pressure controllers used in gas burner systems are commonly called gas pressure swilchas_ They may be used with natural gas, LP gas, or air. (The C64sC and D models can be used only with air.} They provide safety shutoff or diflerential-pressure control, depending on the controllsr model and wiring hookup (Figs. 3-5). No propor- tioning controllers are available tor use in gas burner systems. LOCATION AND MOUNTING Gas pressure switches in the main burner line should be located downstream from the PRII (pressure rBgJlaling valve). The low gas pressure switch should be localed u(r stream from the safety shutoff valve(s). In a downstream location, there would be zero preSsure when lhe burner Isn'( running and the safely shutoff valve(s) is closed. This could prevent startup or reqUire manual reset every time the burner is started. The high gas pressure switch should 225 be located as near thE! burner as p:;lSSibre. Typical loCa- tions arE! shown In Fig. 14. A pressure switch is t JSllally rrounted dlrectPy on the main pipe by Inserling a tBEI in the pipe lJne, and connect- ing a pipe nil=flle at appropriate size 10 the tBEI (Fig. 15). Screw the main pressure connection ot Ihe pressure switch to the pipe nil=flle. The main connection is a heJt- agonallilling with 1/4 or 1/2 inch NPT Internal threadS.

PRESSURE CONTROLLERS USED IN OIL BURNER SySTEMS Prassure controllers are used in oil burner systems to supervise oil pressure and to supervise the pressure 01 the atomizing medium (if used). OIL PRESSURE SUPERVISION The Oil pressure controllers (also called oil pressure SWitches) discussed in this section can be used with any type of fuel oil, inclUding heavy preheated oils. They have a stainless steel diaphragm to resisl corrosion. The dia· phragm transmits changes in oil pressure to an spst mer- cury switch Ihrough a mechanical linkage. The L404T and Ware high pressure limits; they break a circuit and st'1ut down the system if the oil pressure gets too high. The L404V and Yare operating controllers and low pressure limits: they preventlhe system from staning untillhe oil pressure is high enough, and they Shut down Ihe system ir lhe oil pressure falls too low. TIle L404T and V have adjustable subtractive differenhals: the L404W and Yare manual reset models. C447.C547 _ LOCATION AND MOUNTING Oil pressure controllers can be mounledat any location in Ihe ojl supply line, dePending on Ihe application. Typical loca/lons are shown in Fig. 18. The low oil pressure switch should be located upsrrfjam from 1M safely shutoff valve{S), In a downstream location, there would be zero pressure when the burner isn't running and the safety Shu10ff valve(s) is closed. This could prevent startup or re- quire manual reset every time the burner is staned. The hiGh oil pressure switCh should be located as near the burner as possible. An oil pressure controller is mounted directly on the main pipe by inserting a tee in tha pipe line. and cOnnect- ing a pipe ,iJ:Ple of appropriate size to lhe tea (FiQ. 19). Screw Ihe he:tagonal fitting (1/4 inch NPT with internal threads) at the pressure controller to lhe pipe niJ:Ple. To avoid leaks and damage to Ihe case, use a paralle! jaw wrench on the hexagonal filling close to the pipe niJ:Ple. Do not tighten rhe pressure contro/ler by hand by holding the caSe.

When used with preheated oil, a siphon 10ClP must al- ways be connecteCl between the controller and the main pipe {Fig. 20) to provide thermal buffering. The 10ClP must always be perpendicular to the face of the controller. If the 10ClP is parallel 10 the controller, expansion or contraction of the 10ClP will tip the controller and cause the switch to cperate lnaceuralely. Oil pressure controllers have· mercury switches, so they must be leveled for proper operation. If mounting di- rectly on the main pipe (Fig. 19), install the controller at rIght angles to the pipe; leveling can then be accom- plished by turning the pipe 100. If using a siphon 10ClP with prehealed oil (Ag. 20), leveling can be accorTfJIlshed b)I carefully bending the siphon 10ClP. The controller is level when the leveling indicator hangs freely with lis pointer di- rectly over the Index mark on the back of the case (see Rg.2). WIRING HOOKUPS If the oil burner system is a single burner system with an integral oil pump, connectlhe oil pressure controller In se- ries between the flame safeguard control and the main oil valve solenoid (Fig. 21). If it is a single burner or a multibur- ner system with an external oil pump, connect the oil pres- 228 sure conlroller in series wilh the other controllers, limits ard interlocks (Fig. 22). SUPERVISION OF ATOMIZING MEDIUM PRESSURE (AIR OR STEAM) When air or steam is used as an atomi.ing medium, aulhorities having jurisdictiqn (approval bodies and codes) often require a-rowiimitto prevent openinQ of the main oil valve unlil sufficient atomizing pressure is pre- senl, and to shut Gbwn the system if the atomi2inQ pres- sura falls too low. The L404B Pressure Controller, designed tor use on steam boilers and hot water healing systems, is recom- mended tor (his appllcallt:rl. It has an spst mercury switch wilh an adjuslable Slblraclive diMerenlial. The switch makes a circuit when the pressure rises to the set jX)int, and breaks when the pressore fcllls to the set point minus the differential (see Fig. 8). The L404B is available in 4 0p- erating pressure ranges, from 2 to 300 psi. LOCATION AND MOUNTING The L404B is mounled in Ihe supply line for the atomiz- ing medium (Fig. 18). Follow the same mounting instruc- lions as for the ofl pressure c?1trollers. WIRING HOOKUPS The cperation of the L404B Is the same as for the L4D4V,Y (makeS on pressure rise to setjX)int).
