One Pipe Local Controller OPLC-2100
Product Information
The One Pipe Local Controller OPLC-2100 provides control of the amount of steam in the One Pipe Heating Systems to regulate the amount of heat (thermal energy) supplied to a building. The OPLC will cycle the Boiler ON/OFF or the steam Zone Valve Open/Close according to the outdoor temperature; average indoor temperature feedback and condensate return temperature feedback. In addition the OPLC control the boiler flame modulation in order to maintain the required steam pressure during the ON cycle.
OPLC-2100 works as a standalone controller, when it is connected to a communication processor, which furnishes the apartments real time average indoor temperature it will greatly improve the heating supply efficiency and avoid apartment over/under-heating.
When the OPLC-2100 is connected to the Local Server it can be monitored and controlled from the local Intranet and/or Internet with appropriate authentications.
