- As soon as there is DHW demand, the boiler
cuts power to the second output, closing the CH
zone valve(s) and powers the first output, opening the
cylinder zone valve. It then fires up to full output
and flow temperature rising to 85 degrees output.

Matt, how does your boiler model know
that DHW is calling if fitted with
either a stat or temp sensor?

There is a setting on the controller in
the boiler to select whether the DHW
demand sensing is by a contact closure
(i.e. thermostat) or a temperature
sensor.

When a stat detects DHW is calling the boiler just then runs up to what the
maximum temperature the boiler is set at? Demand sensing - this will be a
DHW setpoint (cylinder temp) set at the boiler. Below and the boioer runs up
the the max boioer temp set?

There is a similar one for CH control
where the sensing is between thermostat
contact, a PWM signal from a Siemens or
other controller or 0-10 or 0-3v analogue control.

External control which incorporates the burner modualtion rather than
on-off.
