Revolution adaptive - automatic combustion control

The new Revolution adaptive control system recognizes the fuel quality used. This is done on the basis of the fuel water content, the heat output generated, the combustion temperature and the current grate occupancy. By using the Revolution adaptive control system, a permanently low residual oxygen content in the flue gas is maintained even with changing fuel quality and the target output is always achieved. The flue gas recovery and air distribution are automatically adjusted and the ember bed is kept constant. This has a positive effect on efficiency, fuel consumption, emissions and wear.

Product details

Results of a fuel change at the Eschlikon heating network -
Feeding grate firing UTSR-1600.42

The values show the fuel change from dry waste wood M 10 to moist residual forest wood M 35. The Revolution adaptive control system regulates the change in fuel quality during operation without manual intervention.

  • The desired target power is always reached and the power is automatically adjusted
  • Fluctuations in fuel moisture due to fuel change from waste wood M 10 to residual forest wood approx. M 35
  • Residual oxygen is regulated and maintained at 6%

Your advantages

Less effort for operators

  • Automatic readjustment of the target output regardless of the fuel quality
  • No manual intervention to readjust the grate movement, air distribution and flue gas recirculation when changing the fuel

Optimized combustion process

  • Constantly low residual oxygen values and therefore higher efficiency of approx. 2.5 % and lower fuel consumption
  • Reduced exhaust gas volume at the Stack
  • Better part-load performance due to higher combustion temperature
  • Optimum combustion conditions and quiet fuel bed and thus low emissions

Gentle / low-wear system operation

  • Optimized flue gas recovery
  • Combustion air addition optimally adapted to fuel quality
  • Optimum grate occupancy and grate feed

Retrofitting with Revolution adaptive

The Revolution adaptive combustion control is available for UTSR hot water boiler from an output of 700 kW. It is used in combination with the latest version of the "PersonalTouch visio" system control unit.

Necessary equipment

  • "Personal Touch Revolution adaptive" control upgrade
  • Measuring system for determining the current fuel moisture
  • Detection system for grate occupancy (ember bed height and length) using light barriers
  • Heat meter for power measurement
  • Fire room camera
  • Remote access via the Schmid portal
