Integrated Control Systems

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Hurst Performance Series Boilers are equipped with integrated control systems designed to maximize boiler room efficiency, increase productivity, and reduce operating costs. These systems are compatible with all Hurst designs, including alternative fuel models.

Key Features:

Efficiency and Cost Reduction: The control systems optimize fuel and combustion air control, leading to high efficiencies and reduced fuel costs. They enable efficient lead/lag operation of multiple boilers, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by maintaining proper air-to-fuel ratios.
Integration and Automation: The Hurst Boilermaster system allows for centralized monitoring and management of steam and hot water operations via touch screen, secure internet, or SCADA systems. It ensures proper operation of oxygen scrubbing deaerators and boiler make-up water delivery.
Advanced Control Systems: The FireMaster system provides multi-point control for boilers and burners, enabling real-time adjustments for optimized firing and cycle rates. It integrates with feed water systems and heat recovering economizers.
Adaptability: The Biomasster system is designed for solid fuel boilers, offering complete monitoring and automated control. It provides intuitive control of the boiler, fuel feed, and peripheral equipment through a human-machine interface (HMI).

Benefits:

Lower Maintenance Costs: The systems reduce stress on boiler tubes and refractory by minimizing lag boiler cycles and large firing rate changes.
Real-Time Remote Access: Operators can access and control the systems remotely, ensuring ease of operation and lower operational costs.

Conclusion: Hurst's integrated control systems offer significant improvements in efficiency, cost savings, and operational control for boiler systems, making them a valuable upgrade for existing Hurst boiler installations.

Firing boilers on solid fuels has always been a challenge. With variables like fuel-moisture percentages and varying BTU values, achieving a constant and clean burn with solid fuels can be cumbersome at times. The Biomasster system is designed as a complete monitoring and automated control system providing intuitive control of the boiler, fuel feed and peripheral equipment operation. Through the HMI (human machine interface), the operator is given a “dashboard” view of all the motors, devices and processes relative to easy operation of the boiler. From the main operators view, all points of the...
