Looking for a control

I need to stage, rotate and work with a Johnson BMS / BACNet. I need to remotely control and/or monitor on/off status, hot water supply temperature and alarm status.

    Looking for a control

    I am looking for a control that can sequence 3 hot water boilers that will be BMS (Building Management System) compatible. I am looking to stay away from Heat Timer and I understand that Tekmar is not BMS compatible.

    Does anyone know another control that may fit this application.

    They make a control that will work for that application and the engineering is top shelf.

    tekmar Boiler Controls

    The tekmar Boiler Control 268 can receive a 0 to 10 Vdc signal from a BMS to change the boiler water temperature setpoint. This is sufficient for many applications.

    Preffered Utilities

    We just retrofitted a boiler room in Long Island and Preffered Utilities is the control system we used.

    In this case the building does not have a functioning BMS. Our system is currently a stand alone application.

    System does a nice job modulating our gas burners based upon supply,return and outdoor temps.

    The building is a 12 story apartment building. On one day in particular the outdoor temp was 32* the supply temp was 160* the return temp was 155* and we were firing 480 MBH. Easy to justify the retrofit.

    Nice system with good support. In our case the rep did the set up/factory training for the facility/owner.

    Sequence?

    As in stage and/or rotate? I would think that Honeywell's W7750 series building manager or some component of that system would work nicely.

    What BMS is in place?

    Go to www.caleffi.us and take a look at the BLR-1 in the iRadiant section. What you are looking for is pretty much off their shelf.

    Are you looking for the Johnson system to intigrate with your new system or simply indicate the status of the equipment?
