DHW METHOD 2: Failsafe Combination DHW and Space Heating using a MASTER Boiler and Member boilers with
pumps
In this method the Master simultaneously controls both space heating and DHW heating. The Master is piped to only service
space heating, and both members are piped to service space heating and DHW heating demands. The Master’s Heat Demand
input enables space heating by energizing the system pump and maintaining the Heating Setpoint at the System Header Sensor.
The Master’s OR OVR input enables the DHW heating, by maintaining the DHW Setpoint at the DHW Sensor located in the
DHW tank.
Boilers are staged to meet both the Space Heating Setpoint, and the DHW Setpoint based on their runtime. When a boiler is fired
to service a space heating demand it will enable its local pump, and when a boiler is fired to service a DHW demand it will enable
its DHW pump. The Master modulates the boilers in order to maintain the setpoints.
This method allows for a Member boiler to provide Failsafe mechanisms in the event the Master fails and stops communicating
to the Members. Member 2 is configured to provide failsafe space heating, and Member 3 is configured to provide both failsafe
space heating and failsafe DHW heating.
