The triple acting BTC also controls circulator functions. This employs a BTC that acts in reverse. The reverse BTC opens to turn the circulator off if boiler water temperature drops below a set temperature, typically to maintain a minimum boiler temperature in both the High and Low limit functions. The circulator circulates the heat transfer fluid to the heated zone. The Beckett AquaSmart comes equipped with the Department of Energy (DOE) 2012 compliant HeatManager. All models include the option of enabling the Beckett HeatManager load-matchFrequently Asked Questions What is the AquaSmart? What is the Beckett HeatManager calculation? How does this new HeatManager logic compare the HeatManager Classic we are familiar with? How do you know how to set the HeatManager function for different applications? How will the new HeatManager calculation interact with a system utilizing a tankless coil? The Beckett AquaSmart is an advanced triple acting boiler temperature control (BTC) designed for use on residential and light commercial boiler systems. A triple acting BTC incorporates a High and Low limit with differential functions. The triple acting BTC also controls circulator functions. This employs a BTC that acts in reverse.

When selected it provides up to 20% fuel consumption savings. 2. What is the Beckett HeatManager Calculation? The HeatManager saves fuel by dynamically changing the temperature high operating limit to the minimum temperature necessary to meet the heating demand. The contractor can adjust the HeatManager calculation to maximize comfort or energy savings. The HeatManager calculation is designed to operate the boiler at its lowest possible temperature while still meeting the heating demand. By dynamically changing the boiler temperature, it is designed to reduce the energy used by the system without sacrificing comfort. R.W. Beckett Corporation | P.O.

As opposed to the new HeatManager calculation the Beckett HeatManager Classic works to hold off the burner from fi ring if the outlet water temperature from the boiler is warm enough to still heat the home. This causes the burner to cycle less and indirectly lowers the average boiler water temperature, which generates fuel savings. The Beckett AquaSmart HeatManager calculation adjusts the high limit of the boiler based how long the system is on or off. If the system is calling for heat, the adjusted high limit will increase over time but never above the high limit set point. If the system is not calling for heat, the adjusted high limit will decrease over time. The minimum temperature the AquaSmart will allow the adjusted high limit to drop is based on a number of factors including the high limit, low limit, differentials, and HeatManager effi ciency settings. The AquaSmart HeatManager never overrides the low limit, which can be beneficial in keeping hot water available in tankless coil systems. If Domestic Hot Water Priority (DHWP) is set on one of the AquaSmart’s inputs, a priority heat call will temporarily override the operation of the HeatManager. 4. How do you know how to set the HeatManager function for different applications? The default HIGH efficiency setting should work best for most systems. However, there are many system factors that may have an effect on its ability to react to changes quickly enough and supply adequate heat, such as the amount of connected radiation, boiler size, system design temperatures, etc. The efficiency setting adjusts how aggressively the HeatManager calculation atte...
