1 Steel boiler1 Steel boiler
1.1 Types and heating outputWith the Logano SK655 and the Logano SK755, Buderus offers steel boilers with outputs ranging from 120 kW to 1850 kW. The Logano SK655 is available with heating outputs ranging from 120 kW to 360 kW, the Logano SK755 covers the output range from 420 kW to 1850 kW.These boilers feature reversing combustion according to EN 303 for oil or gas. They are suitable for fuel oil EL to DIN 51603-1, natural gas or LPG to DVGW G 260. The boilers can, as an option, be operated with matching pressure-jet oil and gas burners to EN 267 and EN 676, for sufficient heat output. The boilers are made of steel and are designed for a maximum safety temperature of 120 C (shutdown temperature of the high limit safety cut-out).
1.2 ApplicationsThe Logano SK655 and SK755 steel boilers are suitable for all heating systems to EN 12828 (maximum high limit safety cut-out temperature 110 C) and EN 12953-6 (maximum high limit safety cut-out temperature 120 C). Observe country-specific standards.They are used in applications including central heating and DHW heating in apartment buildings, municipal and commercial buildings, in district heating centres and for indirect swimming pool heating.For DHW heating, these boilers can be combined with Buderus DHW cylinders.
1.3 Features and benefitsHigh standard seasonal efficiency [to DIN] and economic viabilityThe large heating surface of the second pass and high grade thermal insulation result in excellent heat transfer as well as low flue gas and standby losses. The result is a standard seasonal efficiency [to DIN] of up to 93 %. Minimum circulation volumes are not required.
Quiet operation with clean combustionThe reversing combustion chamber with low combustion chamber volume loads ensures clean combustion and a high standard seasonal efficiency. Optionally available boiler supports that act to prevent structure-borne noise transfer and flue gas silencers result in significantly lower operating noise.
Easy installationThe factory-fitted thermal insulation and casing of the Logano SK655 and SK755 make it possible to install the boiler quickly and easily.At the factory, these boilers are fitted with all required connections, enabling an easy integration into the heating system. Accessories are matched to these boilers, ensuring an easy and quick installation. For example, a safety assembly matched to these boilers ensures uncomplicated installation (only for safety level according to EN 12828).Predrilled burner plates make fitting third party burners easy.
Straight-forward system designAll boilers can be connected simply and in a straight-forward manner to the heating system, since there is no special need for a minimum flow rate. Not only does this lead to reduced investment outlay and running costs, but also less engineering effort.
Supplied fully wired ready for connectionEasy connection to the heating system due to fully assembled delivery ex works.
Easy maintenance and cleaningThe combustion chamber and the heating surfaces of these boilers are easily accessible through the large door at the front that can be pivoted to the left or right. The smooth steel surfaces of these boilers can be easily cleaned with the cleaning set supplied as standard.
Easy and convenient operationThe control functions that are matched to the respective system hydraulics facilitate easy operation. These boilers can be combined with different Buderus control units. The equipment level of all control units can be extended individually with auxiliary modules. All control unit functions can be adjusted in only a few steps through the push & turn facility.PD SK655/755 6 720 810 010 (2013/10)4

2 Technical description2.2 Heating water routingCalculated flow and temperature processesA simulation program enabled the calculation of influencing factors, such as heat supply, amount of water, circulation etc. Subject to these factors, the flow and updraught characteristics as well as the temperature distribution within the boiler could be calculated and, step by step, optimised. The results of this simulation program were translated into the design of these steel boilers.

2.3 Hot gas routingInside the combustion chamber, the hot gases are reversed and flow towards the front of the boiler, where they are reversed again by the front door and guided into the second pass. They flow through the pipes, where they transfer their heat to the boiler water.
The design and geometry of the second pass ensure a high heat transfer rate from the hot gas to the boiler water.

2 Technical description2.5.3 Standby loss and flue gas temperatureThe standby loss is part of the rated heat input that is required to achieve the specified boiler water temperature. The cause of this loss is the cooling down of the boiler through radiation and convection during the standby time (burner idle time).
Radiation and convection result in part of the output being transferred continuously from the boiler surface to the ambient air. In addition to this surface loss, the boiler can also cool down to a lesser degree through the chimney draught. The flue gas temperature depends on the average boiler water temperature and the boiler load.

3.1 Burner selection Either pressure-jet oil or gas burners can be used with the Logano SK655 and SK755 steel boilers. The pressure-jet oil burners must be approved to EN 267, and the pressure-jet gas burners to EN 676. 2-stage or modulating burners can be used.When selecting a burner take into account that the pressure drop on the hot gas side must be overcome reliably. When positive pressure at the flue outlet is required (sizing of the flue system), this must be taken into consideration in addition to the pressure drop on the hot gas side.To make engineering and installation easier, burners and drilled burner plates are available as accessories for the Logano SK655 and SK755 boilers. The boilers are supplied with a dummy plate.
3.2 Burner requirementsObserve the installation instructions issued by the burner manufacturer where the burner installation is concerned.

4 Regulations and operating conditions4.4 FuelOperation with fuel oilThe Logano SK655 and SK755 steel boilers can be operated with fuel oil EL to DIN 51603. All boilers, without restriction, are also suitable for rapeseed oil. Pressure-jet burners for rapeseed oil can be obtained from burner manufacturers on request.
Operation with gasAll steel boilers are suitable for natural gas E, natural gas LL or LPG. Observe the burner manufacturer's details.The gas quality must comply with the requirements of the DVGW Code of Practice G 260 [Germany]. To be able to adjust the gas throughput, install a gas meter that can be checked even in the lower load range of the burner. This also applies to LPG systems.Biogas (e.g. gas from waste disposal or sewerage works) can also be used. There are special operating conditions for this which must be observed. Pressure-jet burners for biogas are available from burner manufacturers on request.
Additional operating conditions for operation with biogasThe following operating conditions must be met: Operate boiler at constant temperature Never permit operating interruptions Maintain a minimum return temperature above the
dew point (in this case at least 68 C), i.e. return temperature raising measures
Ensure minimum boiler water temperature of 83 C Clean and maintain the boiler regularly, possibly clean
chemically and then preserve Combustion of biogas/waste gas (quality in line with
DVGW G262, table 3): Proportion of sulphur and sulphur compounds in
the gas up to a maximum of 1500 mg/m3 (approx. 0.1 % by volume)
Proportion of chlorine and chlorine compounds in the gas up to a maximum of 50 mg/m3
Proportion of fluoride and fluoride compounds in the gas up to a maximum of 25 mg/m3
In view of the high degree of corrosiveness, and in variance from Fig. 8.5 of our general sales, delivery and payment terms, the warranty period is limited to 2 years.
4.5 Water treatmentAs pure water cannot be used for heat transfer, water quality is important. Poor water quality can lead to limescale formation and corrosion. Consequently, particular attention must be paid to water quality, water treatment and, above all, continuous water monitoring. Water treatment is an essential factor in ensuring trouble-free operation, availability, a long service life and the efficiency of the heating system.
4.5.1 Definition of termsLimescale formation is the formation of hard deposits on walls inside hot water heating systems. These deposits are made up of substances contained in the water, primarily calcium carbonate.Heating water is any water used for heating purposes in a hot water heating system.Fill water is the water used to fill the entire heating system on the heating water side for the first time and with which it is then heated up.Top-up water is any water used to top up the system on the heating water side after the first time it is heated up.Operating temperature is the temperature captured at the flow connector of the heat appliance in a hot water heating system when operating correctly.Water volume Vmax is the maximum volume of untreated fill and top-up water in m3 that may be introduced into the system over the entire service life of the boiler.Corrosion-inhibiting sealed unvented systems are heating systems in which no significant amount of oxygen ingress into the heating water is possible.
4.5.2 Prevention of corrosion damageIn most cases, corrosion plays only a minor role in heating systems. That is based on the fundamental requirement that the system is a corrosion-inhibiting sealed unvented system, i.e. one that prevents a continuous ingress of oxygen.Continuous ingress of oxygen leads to corrosion and can thus cause rusting and the formation of rust sludge. Sludge formation can not only cause blockages and therefore a diminished heat supply but also deposits (similar to limescale deposits) on the hot surfaces of heat exchangers.The most important factor with regard to ingress of oxygen is generally pressure maintenance and, in particular, the function, correct sizing and adjustment (pre-charge pressure) of the expansion vessel. Check the function and pre-charge pressure annually. If continuous ingress of oxygen cannot be prevented (e.g. due to plastic pipes that are permeable to oxygen) or if the system cannot be designed as a sealed unvented system, anti-corrosion measures such as the addition of approved chemical additives or system separation by means of a heat exchanger are necessary.Oxygen binding agents can be used, for example, to bind the oxygen.PD SK655/755 6 720 810 010 (2013/10) 19
4 Regulations and operating conditionsThe pH value of untreated heating water should be between 8.2. and 10.0. It should be noted that the pH value will change following commissioning, especially due to the loss of oxygen and limescale deposition. We recommend checking the pH value after several months of heating system operation.The water can be alkalised by the addition of trisodium phosphate, if necessary.
4.5.3 Prevention of damage through scale formationVDI 2035-1 Prevention of damage to hot water central heating systems through limescale formation, issue 12/2005 applies to potable water systems to DIN 4753 and hot water heating systems to DIN 12828 with a design operating temperature of up to 100 C.
One of the aims of the current edition of VDI 2035-1 is to simply its application. For this reason, standard values for the amount of limescale-forming substances (total alkaline earths) for specified heat output ranges are recommended. The specifications are based on practical
experience that shows that damage due to limescale formation is dependent on the total heat output, the system volume, the cumulative volume of fill and top-up water used over the service life of the system and the boiler design.The details given below in respect of Buderus boilers are based on many years of experience and service life tests, and specify the maximum cumulative amount of fill and top-up water subject to output, water hardness and boiler material. This ensures compliance with the aims of VDI 2035-1 Prevention of damage through limescale formation in hot water heating systems.Warranty claims in respect of Buderus boilers are only valid in conjunction with the requirements specified herein and a fully completed system log.
4.5.4 Requirements of the fill and top-up waterTo protect boilers against limescale damage over their entire service life and to ensure trouble-free operation, the total amount of limescale-forming substances in the fill and top-up water in heating systems must be restricted.Therefore, the fill and top-up water has to meet certain requirements that are dependent on the total boiler output and the resulting total volume of water in the heating system ( tab. 8).The permissible amount of water based on the fill water quality can be determined simply with the aid of the graphs in Fig. 18, page 21, and Fig. 19, page 22, or with a calculation method to determine the permissible amounts of fill and top-up water ( chapter 4.5.7, page 23).
If additives or antifreeze (where approved by Buderus) are used in the heating system, check the heating water regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Carry out all necessary corrections ( chapter 4.5.8, page 23).
For operating temperatures > 100 C water treatment is always required, regardless of the boiler size (total hardness in the heating and boiler circuit and fill and top-up water < 0.11 dH).

4 Regulations and operating conditions4.5.6 Recording the amounts of fill and top-up waterFor heating systems > 50 kW, it is compulsory to use a water meter and to keep an operator's log.You will find the log with the technical documents supplied with Buderus boilers. Warranty claims in respect of Buderus boilers are only valid in conjunction with the requirements specified herein and a fully completed log.
4.5.7 Calculation to determine the permissible amounts of fill and top-up water
The fill and top-up water has to meet certain requirements depending on the total boiler output and the resulting water volume of a heating system.Use the following formula to calculate the maximum amount of fill water for heating systems 600 kW that may be introduced without treatment:
F. 1 Calculation of the maximum amount of water that may be introduced without treatment
Ca(HCO3)2 Concentration of calcium hydrogen carbonate in mol/ m
Q Boiler output in kW (for multi-boiler systems, the output of the smallest boiler)
Vmax Maximum quantity of untreated fill and top-up water that may be introduced over the whole service life of the boiler in m
ExampleCalculation of the maximum permissible amount of fill and top-up water Vmax for a heating system with a total boiler output of 420 kW. The analysis values for carbonate hardness and calcium hardness are quoted in the older unit dH.Carbonate hardness: 15.7 dHCalcium hardness: 11.9 dHFrom the carbonate hardness, we obtain:Ca (HCO3)2 = 15.7 dH 0.179 = 2.8 mol/m3
From the calcium hardness, we obtain:Ca (HCO3)2 = 11.9 dH 0.179 = 2.13 mol/m3
The lower of the two values calculated from the calcium and carbonate hardness is the definitive figure for calculating the maximum permissible water volume Vmax.
4.5.8 Chemical additives in the heating waterIf plastic pipes that are permeable to oxygen are used in underfloor heating systems, the corrosion process can be prevented by adding chemicals into the heating water. In such cases, ask the manufacturer of these chemical additives for a certificate verifying the compatibility with different parts of the system and the materials used in the heating system.
Using antifreezeFor decades now, antifreeze based on glycol has been used in heating systems, such as Antifrogen N made by Clariant (sold via the Buderus wholesale network).The use of alternatives is acceptable, subject to such products being the equivalent of Antifrogen N.Observe the information supplied by the antifreeze manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer's details regarding mixing ratios.The specific thermal capacity of Antifrogen N antifreeze is lower than the specific thermal capacity of water. To enable the transfer of the required heat output, increase the required flow rate accordingly. This should be taken into account when sizing the system components (e.g. pumps) and the pipework. In addition, a higher flue gas temperature results, lowering the boiler efficiency.As the heat transfer medium has a higher viscosity and density than water, take the higher pressure drop through the pipework and other system components into account. Check the resistance of all plastic or non-metallic components in the system separately.
4.5.9 Combustion airWhere combustion air is concerned, ensure that it is not heavily contaminated with dust and contains no halogenated compounds. Otherwise there would be a risk of damage to the combustion chamber and the secondary heating surfaces.Halogen compounds are highly corrosive. These are contained, for example, in spray cans, thinners, cleaning & degreasing agents and in solvents.Design the combustion air supply so that, for example, no extract air is drawn in from chemical cleaners or paint shops. Special requirements apply to the supply of combustion air in the installation room ( page 50).

5 Heating controls5 Heating controls
5.1 Logamatic 4000 control systemA control unit is required to operate the boilers. The Buderus-Logamatic control systems are of modular design. This enables the selection of well-matching and economical units for all applications and stages of development in the proposed heating system.Subject to requirements and the heating system layout, the following are available for selection as the boiler control system: Logamatic 4212 control unit (ZM427 for boiler
operating conditions) Logamatic 4321 und 4322 control units Logamatic 4324 control unit for high flow
temperature Logamatic4411 control panel systemA burner control panel may be required for the contactors controlled by the control unit. Alternatively, the contactors can be integrated into the Buderus control panel system.
5.1.1 Logamatic 4212 control unitThe conventional Logamatic 4212 control unit is suitable for operation with a constant boiler water temperature. Where a higher-ranking control is used, e.g. a Logamatic 4411 (DDC systems and building management systems), the Logamatic 4212 control unit transfers the burner switching commands to the burner.The standard equipment contains the safety equipment for a 2-stage burner operation. Boiler circuit actuators and boiler circuit pumps can be switched with the ZM427 auxiliary module, thereby safeguarding the boiler operating conditions. Furthermore, the ZM427 module facilitates an enabling of the burner stages with a higher-ranking control using floating contacts.
5.1.2 Logamatic 4321 and Logamatic 4322 control units
The Logamatic 4321 control unit enables the low temperature operation of these boilers and provides the operating conditions in conjunction with the 2-stage or modulating burner in a single boiler system.Up to eight heating circuits with actuator can be controlled with corresponding function modules. The range of functions also includes the complete boiler circuit control with optional switching of a boiler circuit actuator and one boiler circuit pump.2-boiler and 3-boiler systems require a Logamatic 4321 control unit for the first boiler that functions as the master device and a Logamatic 4322 control unit as the lag appliance for each of the second and third boilers. The combination of devices with corresponding function modules can control up to 22 heating circuits with actuator.
5.1.3 Logamatic 4324 control unit for high flow temperatures
The Logamatic 4324 digital control unit can be used for permitted floor-standing oil and gas boilers, which are allowed to be operated up to a max. shutdown temperature (high limit safety cut-out) of 120 C. Single stage, two-stage and modulating burners, as well as dual-fuel burners, can be activated. Multi-boiler systems can also be controlled with the FM459 strategy module in the Logamatic 4324 control unit. For this, each boiler must have a Logamatic 4324 control unit.The maximum possible control temperature (boiler set temperature) is 105 C.
5.1.4 Logamatic4411 control panel systemThe Logamatic 4411 control panel system from Buderus is the comprehensive solution, representing advanced control technology for complex heating systems that require a system-specific control.The local sales office assists with the engineering and supplies optimum system solutions for each individual case. This also applies to programmable logic controls (DDC systems) and building management systems.
5.2 Logamatic telecontrol systemThe Logamatic telecontrol system is the ideal addition to all Buderus control systems. It comprises several software and hardware components and enables heating contractors to provide even better customer support and services via a powerful remote control facility. It can be used in rental apartment buildings, holiday homes as well as in medium and large heating systems. The Logamatic telecontrol system is suitable for remote monitoring, parameter setting and fault diagnosis in heating systems. It offers ideal conditions for heat supply concepts and maintenance and inspection contracts.
The technical guide Modular Logamatic 4000 control system contains more detailed information on the Logamatic 4212, 4321, 4322 and 4324 control units.

5 Heating controls5.3 Control unit settings
The purpose of optimum control unit settings is to achieve long burner runtimes and avoid rapid temperature changes in the boiler. Gentle temperature changes result in a longer service life of the heating system. The control strategy of the control unit must therefore be prevented from becoming ineffective, i.e. through the boiler water controller switching the burner on and off. Maintain the minimum differential between the
selected shutdown temperature of the high limit safety cut-out, the temperature controller, the maximum boiler water temperature and the maximum temperature demand ( tab. 9, 10 and 11 page 25).
Select set temperatures for the heating circuits that are as low as possible.
Start heating circuits (e.g. when starting up in the mornings) at 5-minute intervals.
Settings for boiler water controller and maximum boiler water temperatureThe boiler water controller is only designed to provide emergency operation with an adjustable boiler water temperature if the control electronics fail. In standard control mode, the function of the boiler water controller is provided by the maximum boiler water temperature. The maximum boiler water temperature can be selected in the control unit in the "Boiler parameters" menu, under menu item "Max. shutdown temperature".
We recommend using a Buderus Logamatic control unit from the 4000 series.
The maximum boiler water temperature can be selected on the control unit (MEC) in the "Boiler parameters" menu, under menu item "Max. shutdown temperature".
If the Buderus Logamatic 4000 control unit is used, burner modulation in standard mode is not enabled for 3 minutes. Never modulate upwards more quickly than this.

Notes on setting third party control units
The third party control unit (building management system or PLC controllers) must ensure a maximum internal boiler water temperature that is sufficiently different from the high limit safety cut-out. It must also be ensured that the control electronics rather than the boiler water controller switch the burner on and off.
The control unit must ensure that the burner is switched to low load before being shut down. If this is not observed, the safety shut-off valve (SAV) in the gas train may lock out.
Select control equipment that allows a gentle start-up with a time delay when the system is cold.
After the burner demand, an automatic timer (for example) should limit the burner to low load for a period of approx. 180 seconds. This prevents uncontrolled starting and stopping of the burner when the heat energy demand is restricted.
It must be possible to show the number of burner starts on the control unit used (or alternatively on the burner control unit).
The maximum temperature demand is not a value that is directly selected. The maximum temperature demand is composed of the set temperature and the rise.
All maximum temperature demands must always be 7 K below the maximum selected boiler water temperature.

6.1 Systems for DHW heatingThe Logano SK655 and SK755 steel boilers can also be used to provide DHW heating. The Buderus Logalux DHW cylinders, which are matched to the boiler output, are suitable. These are available as vertical and horizontal versions in different sizes with 150 l to 6000 l capacity. Depending on the application, they are equipped with an internal indirect coil or an external heat exchanger ( Fig. 21 and fig. 22).

With the primary store system, different cylinder sizes and different heat exchanger sets can be combined. System solutions are therefore available for any demand and many applications.
6.2 DHW temperature controlThe DHW temperature is set and regulated either by means of a module inside the boiler control unit or via a separate control unit dedicated to DHW heating. The control units for DHW heating are specifically matched to the heating control unit and offer many application options.

7.1 Information regarding all system examples
The examples in this section show the options for the hydraulic connection of the Logano SK655 and SK755 steel boilers without safety criteria.For detailed information regarding the number, equipment level and control of the heating circuits as well as on the installation of DHW cylinders and other consumers, see the respective technical guides.The DHW heating systems shown can be implemented as DHW cylinder or primary store system.Each system example is a non-binding recommendation for a certain version of the heating system. Practical implementation is subject to currently applicable technical rules.Information regarding further options for system layout and engineering aids are available from the staff in Buderus sales offices.
7.1.1 Hydraulic connection
Steps for controlling the return and boiler water temperatureThe Buderus Logamatic 4321, 4322, 4324 and 4212 control units with the ZM427 auxiliary module, together with the corresponding boiler or heating circuit actuators, ensure the required minimum return temperature.Alternatively, the Logamatic 4321, 4322 and 4324 control units enable operation with minimum boiler water temperature.
For demand-dependent system suggestions with explanations of the respective functions and application limits, see page 32 to page 48.
Heating circuit pumpsSize pumps in central heating systems in accordance with current technical rules.
Dirt trapsDeposits in the heating system can lead to local overheating, noise and corrosion. Any resulting boiler damage falls outside the warranty obligations.To remove dirt and sludge, flush an existing heating system thoroughly prior to installing and commissioning a boiler. In addition, we recommend the installation of dirt traps or a blow-down facility.Dirt traps retain contaminants and thereby prevent operating faults in control devices, pipework and boilers. Fit these near the lowest point of the heating system in an easily accessible position. Clean the dirt traps every time the heating system is serviced.
Position of strategy flow temperature sensorIn multi-boiler systems with strategy flow temperature sensor (FVS), the sensor should be located as close to the boiler system as possible. This rule does not apply if a low loss header is used to provide hydraulic balance. Additional time lag due to long distances between the boiler system and the strategy flow temperature sensor has a negative effect on the control characteristics, especially in the case of boilers with modulating-control burners.
Allow for the temperature sensors required for raising the return temperature in the form of immersion sensors.PD SK655/755 6 720 810 010 (2013/10)28
7 System examples7.1.2 Control systemOperating temperatures should be controlled with the Logamatic control unit taking account of the outside temperature. It is possible to control individual heating circuits in room temperature-dependent mode (with a room temperature sensor in a reference room). For this, the actuators and heating circuit pumps are constantly actuated by the Logamatic control unit. Number and version of the controllable heating circuits are dependent on the selection and equipment level of the control unit. The Logamatic control unit also activates the burner, independently of whether these are 2-stage or modulating pressure-jet burners. Different types of burners can also be combined in multi burner systems. Three-phase burner and three-phase pumps must be electrically connected on site. These are activated by the Logamatic control unit (230 V).
7.1.3 DHW heatingGiven an appropriate design, the DHW temperature control by means of a a Logamatic control unit offers special functions, such as the activation of a DHW circulation pump or thermal disinfection to protect against the growth of legionella bacteria, for example.

Boiler circuit pump flow rate VPKFor systems with primary circuit pumps (e.g. in the case of low loss headers or non-pressurised distributors) installing the boiler circuit pump into the return is recommended.

Size of calculation for formula 5 and formula 6:VHK Flow rate of the heating circuits in l/hVKges Total boiler circuit flow rate in l/hIn 2-boiler systems, distribute the pump rates of the boiler circuit pumps according to the boiler outputs. Where several heating circuits are constantly operated with high flow temperatures and maximum flow rate, the flow rate of each boiler circuit pump should correspond to the flow rate of the heating circuit pumps. For systems with gas condensing boilers, there are special requirements to be followed, e.g. maintaining as low a return temperature as possible. The pump rate of the boiler circuit pump may need to be adjusted to the pump rate of the heating circuits.
Sizing the 3-way valveSize the 3-way valve for the flow rate that has been calculated. When doing so, observe the pressure loss when the valve is fully open, as the control quality is influenced by the proportional pressure loss.

7 System examples7.3.3 Low loss headerA low loss header (hydraulic balancing) is used to hydraulically separate the boiler circuit and the heating circuits.Installing a low loss header brings many benefits: Sizing boiler circuit pump and actuators is easy.
Interaction between the heating water flow inside the boiler and in the heat consumer circuits is prevented. Boiler and heat consumers are only supplied with the assigned water flow.
May be used in single and multi-boiler systems, subject to the heating circuit control system.
Actuators on both sides of the low loss header provide optimum operation if they are sized correctly. The hydraulic balancing line can also be used as a sludge trap, subject to being sized correctly ( page 28).
Where there is a large pressure drop on the water side and large distances between boiler and heating circuits, a split into primary and secondary side is possible.
Sizing the low loss headerCorrect sizing is crucial to the function of the low loss header. To ensure good separation with the simultaneous function as a dirt separator, size the line in such a way that there is virtually no pressure drop between the flow and return. At the nominal amount of water, a flow velocity of 0.1 m/s to 0.2 m/s can be expected. This also enables the simultaneous use as a sludge trap. To be able to capture the heating circuit flow temperature, provide a sensor well of 200 mm to 300 mm length in the upper area of the hydraulic balancing line on the heating circuit side.

7 System examplesFunction descriptionThe Logamatic control unit safeguards the minimum boiler return temperature. If the actual return temperature captured by the FZ temperature sensor falls below the set value whilst the burner is switched on, the control unit reduces the system flow rate towards the boiler by activating the SK boiler circuit actuator. At the same time, hot water from the flow is mixed into the cold water returning from the system to achieve the set return temperature.The boiler circuit actuator is opened towards the consumer circuits once the minimum return temperature has been reached.
Special design information This arrangement is ideally suited for a modernised
system where the heating circuit control is provided by the higher ranking control (third party control unit).
This requires an FZ auxiliary temperature sensor.
