What does the operating control do?

The operating control is an essential component in the boiler system, primarily responsible for initiating the burner start-up sequence and handling the shutdown sequence as required. This means that it monitors the operational parameters and automatically activates the burner when heat is necessary, ensuring efficient operation and safety of the boiler when it needs to produce steam or hot water. Additionally, it plays a critical role in shutting down the burner when the desired temperature or pressure is reached or when the operational safety limits are exceeded, thereby preventing potential operational hazards.

This function is crucial because proper management of the burner sequences helps maintain a consistent and safe environment within the boiler system, allowing it to respond dynamically to varying demands while ensuring that it operates within safe limits.
