A heating system must keep a work place
comfortably warm at the coldest anticipated outdoor temperature. Most
forced-air heating systems in the U.S. and abroad are between 50% and
100%larger than necessary for maintaining a comfortable temperature on most
days when the temperature is not as low as those extreme days. This excess
capacity causes the burner to cycle on and off continuously to prevent the
furnace from overheating. It also causes uncomfortable swings in temperature
space. Even on furnaces with programmable setback thermostats or multi-zone
controls, the burner cycling is not optimized. This burner cycling pattern
wastes fuel and electricity while increasing the wear and tear on the entire heating
system.
When a forced air furnace receives a call for heat,
the burner ignites, and the temperature starts rising in the heat exchanger.
The IntelliCon-CFA monitors this temperature rise using its own sensors.
The sensor tracks the temperature rise throughout the burner cycle. As the heat
exchanger warms up, the temperature rise begins to level out, indicating that
the output air temperature is stabilizing. When a constant temperature is
reached, the IntelliCon-CFA shuts the burner off. While in"“Economy"”
mode, burner ignition is prevented even if the thermostat continues to call for
heat. Once the sensed temperature drops to the calculated optimal temperature,
the burner is again allowed to fire. This firing cycle repeats until the call
for heat is satisfied.
The intelligent
interaction between the IntelliCon-CFA, the thermostat and the burner
ensures that the heating system provides a more even and comfortable level of
heating while using less fuel. The IntelliCon-CFA ensures that the
furnace delivers the appropriate amount of heated air necessary to heat the
space at the desired temperature without noticeable and uncomfortable
temperatures changes. At the same time, the reduction in burner runtime
measurably reduces fuel consumed and generates significant fuel bill savings.
Service personnel will appreciate the LCD readout, which displays useful unit
status information, including discharge air temperature and, optionally, return
air temperature. This display is useful for system diagnostics and maintenance.
IntelliCon-CFA typically reduces fuel consumption 10% to 20%.
The IntelliCon-CFA's
small 4"H x 4"W x2 ½"D size allows it to be installed almost anywhere.
After installation, IntelliCon-CFA does not require any adjustment, programming
or maintenance and will not violate the manufacturer's warranty.
