Steam boiler systems place the highest demands on the quality of the feed water. Even the smallest amounts of residual hardness can lead to limescale deposits on the heating surfaces – resulting in overheating, loss of performance and, in the worst case, boiler damage. VdT\u00dcV Code of Practice W\u00dcV 100 therefore requires continuous, automated monitoring of water hardness using certified devices – including the option of 72-hour unattended operation (BOB).<\/strong><\/p>\n The SYCON BoB from RLS Wacon is a fully automatic online analyzer for monitoring the residual hardness in boiler feed water and returning condensate. It is certified in accordance with VdT\u00dcV data sheet W\u00dcV 100 and therefore fulfills the requirement for operation without supervision (BOB) for 72 hours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The device is based on the proven SYCON platform, but is specially optimized for use in steam boilers: Pre-configured relays, an access code to protect against incorrect parameterization, a BOB probe for level monitoring of the Reagent and a shortened maintenance interval ensure maximum operational reliability.<\/p>\n The SYCON BoB works according to the colorimetric titration method<\/strong>. A water sample is automatically fed into the measuring chamber and the Reagent (H25-0.05 or H25-0.1) is added step by step. An optical sensor detects the color change and calculates the residual hardness of the water.<\/p>\n The integrated BOB sensor<\/strong> continuously monitors the fill level of the indicator bottle. As soon as the remaining content is sufficient for less than 72 hours of operation (approx. 12 % fill level), a BOB message is issued via relay 2 and the display. This ensures that the indicator supply is replenished in good time.<\/p>\n The analysis time is approx. 3 minutes with an indicator consumption of only 0.05 ml per analysis. Up to 10,000 analyses are possible with a 500 ml bottle.<\/p>\n Meets the legal requirements for the unattended operation of steam boiler systems<\/p>\n<\/li>\n The BOB probe signals in good time when the indicator supply needs to be replenished – can be extended to up to 144 hours with a longer measuring interval<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Locks access to critical settings during unattended operation<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Limit value, BOB message, device fault, analysis active – Terminal diagram can be created in advance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Integration into the boiler control system and higher-level control systems<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Direct transmission of measured values to the system controller<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Suitable for the harsh environmental conditions in the boiler house<\/p>\n<\/li>\n No manual calibration – automatic compensation for ambient light, contamination and turbidity<\/p>\n<\/li>\n 0.05 ml per analysis – up to 10,000 analyses per 500 ml bottle<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SYCON BoB – T\u00dcV-certified analyzer for steam boiler systems Why is certified hardness monitoring required in the boiler house?
