INTRODUCTION
The Y-200 Series Electronic Boiler Control (controller)
is a microprocessor-based boiler management system
designed to control either single or multiple stage-fired
boilers. Ideally suited for use in hydronic heating and
domestic hot water supply applications, this controller
has been engineered with the flexibility and raw power
to tame the most demanding control situations.
Utilizing state-of-the-art control algorithms, the Y-200
Series minimizes operating costs by maximizing ener-
gy efficiency.
Concept of Operation
The controller is an outdoor reset control that is perfect
for managing hydronic heating systems. Two tempera-
ture sensors are used to control system response.
One sensor is used to monitor the outdoor tempera-
ture, the other sensor is used to regulate the
temperature of the system water. By varying the tem-
perature of the heating medium in response to
changes in the outdoor temperature, the Y-200 Series
provides the ultimate in personal comfort and efficien-
cy of operation.
The controller is also well adapted to domestic hot
water supply duty. By disabling the outdoor reset func-
tion, the Y-200 behaves as an energy-wise boiler
sequencer. With the ability to control multiple firing
stages, and such features as a revolutionary selec-
table lead-lag protocol, the Y-200 redefines
"controllability" in domestic water applications.
The controller is equipped with an energy-saving
warm-weather shutdown capability. When the outdoor
temperature rises above an adjustable "Outdoor Cut-
off Temperature," the system automatically transitions
to a dormant state. This prevents the system from
wasting energy trying to heat a building that is already
at a comfortable temperature.
Once the outside temperature has fallen to the point
that the system requires heat input to maintain the
building temperature, the Y-200 is reactivated and will
hold the system temperature at the required point.
