2 PF2200-SB PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

2.1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW


The PF2200 Single Burner Controller (PF2200-SB) product is designed to provide safe and reliable control
over industrial heating appliances. This product consists of four main pieces:

• User Interface Card: the card which provides interaction to the user / operator. This card monitors
user input and displays all relevant status / setting information to the user.
• BMS Card: the “safety brain” of the product. This card stores all the relevant safety information and
performs the operating sequence in accordance with the timings in the safety settings.
• Keypad: allows the user / operator to interact with the product through a series of buttons.
• Enclosure: provides protection for the product against environmental conditions.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
9
2.1.1 USER INTERFACE CARD
The User Interface Card allows interaction with the system through the use of the keypad and a display. This
card interacts with the BMS card through a proprietary communication protocol, called PFN, which utilizes
the RS-485 physical transport layer. PFN and power to the User Interface are factory wired to the BMS card
through a wiring harness.

2.1.1.1 MODBUS
Remote access to status information and non-safety critical settings can be achieved via the Modbus port of
the User Interface card. The Modbus port supports Modbus RTU over the RS-485 physical layer. For a
complete register list, see PF2200 Single Burner BMS – Modbus Registers. By design, safety critical settings
are not accessible via Modbus.

2.1.1.2 USB
The USB port of the User Interface Card is used for data-logging, settings backup and restore and updating
firmware. Data-logging is enabled by going to the Firmware Update screen on the User Interface and is
limited by the size of USB stick-- a USB stick of size 1GB or larger is recommended. Firmware update is only
supported using authorized firmware bundles. Contact Profire Energy for an authorized firmware bundle.

2.1.1.3 STATUS LED


The User Interface Card has a tricolor Status LED which is visible on the front panel of the product. The states
of the Status LED are defined below:

State LED Behavior

2.1.2 BMS CARD
The BMS card provides the necessary I/O and functionality to reliably and safely control a burner. In addition,
the BMS card also has tertiary features that are not safety rated but provide a functional benefit to the overall
product.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
11
2.1.2.1 PILOT VALVE OUTPUTS (Pilot 1 and Pilot 2)
Two powered outputs (terminals 15-16 and 17-18) are intended to be connected to solenoid valves which
control the fuel line for the pilot. When Pilot 2 is enabled, both outputs work in conjunction with one another
meaning that they energize and de-energize in unison. If Pilot 2 is disabled, the Pilot 2 output will stay de-
energized. The Pilot Outputs are capable of PWM output mode at a fixed 3 kHz frequency. Supported duty
cycles for PWM mode are 10-100% and are configurable via the user interface.

2.1.2.2 MAIN VALVE OUTPUTS (SSV)


Two powered outputs (terminals 19-20 and 21-22) are intended to be connected to solenoid valves which
control the main fuel line for the burner. Both outputs work in conjunction with one another meaning that
they energize and de-energize in unison. The Main Valve Outputs are capable of PWM output mode at a
fixed 3 kHz frequency. Supported duty cycles for PWM mode are 10-100% and are configurable via the user
interface.

2.1.2.3 IGNITION OUTPUTS (Coil +/-)


Two powered outputs (terminals 55-56 and 59-60) are intended to be connected to an ignition source (e.g.
ignition transformer). When Pilot 2 is enabled, both outputs work in conjunction with one another meaning
they energize and de-energize in unison. If Pilot 2 is disabled, the Pilot 2 Coil output will stay de-energized.
Two ignition modes are supported by the system and configurable via the user interface: Coil Mode and High
Energy Ignition (HEI) mode. Coil mode sends a pulsed signal of fixed frequency and duty cycle and is
intended to be used in conjunction with an ignition transformer. In HEI mode, the output is energized with a
steady state DC voltage that can be used to enable an external High Energy Ignition source.

2.1.2.4 FLAME DETECTION I/O (Ion +/-)


Two Ionization flame detection I/O (terminals 53-54 and 57-58) are supported by the PF2200-SB. These
terminals are intended to be connected to a flame rod which makes physical contact with the flame.

Through the use of the rectification property of the flame, the PF2200-SB measures the presence of flame by
applying an AC signal to the rod. If an open circuit event exists, the result will be a loss of flame.

Pilot 1 flame detection is always enabled, whereas Pilot 2 flame detection can be enabled or disabled via the
user interface. If Pilot 2 flame detection is enabled, both Pilot 1 and Pilot 2 flames must be established and
present in order for the system to continue to run.

2.1.2.5 HIGH FIRE VALVE (HFV) OUTPUT


One powered output (terminals 23 and 24) is intended to be connected to a solenoid valve when a staged
heating appliance is needed. In this application, the high fire valve output is intended to be the highest level

DOC-001043 / v5.2
12
of heat demand (Stage 2). If a lower level of heat demand is needed, the high fire valve will be de-energized
while the Main Valve Outputs (SSV) remain energized (Stage 1).

2.1.2.6 START/STOP SWITCH


The external Start/Stop switch can be used to start, stop or clear a lockout on the system. The various
positions / actions are outlined in the table below:

Switch State Behavior Switch State Mode


Stop Hold the system in lockout ESD or Shutdown
Run Transition to a ready state or maintain a running Ready
state.
Ignite If held for 1 second or more, transition into the System Start
Confirm Start state.
Run -> Stop -> Run Acknowledge and clear lockout condition N/A
Note: if switch is held in the Ignite state for longer than 5 seconds, the system will alarm.

2.1.2.7 EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN (ESD) INPUT


The ESD input (terminals 33-34) is an energized-to-run digital input that is always enabled. If the contact is
de-energized, the system will present an alarm and proceed to lockout (if running). If the contact is
energized, the alarm will clear.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
13
2.1.2.8 PRESSURE INPUT
The Pressure input (terminals 5-6) is meant to monitor an external pressure (e.g. fuel pressure) and provide
the necessary feedback in the event of a high and/or low pressure event. Configurable as disabled, digital
input or 4-20mA signal through the user interface; the pressure input can be connected to either a switch or
transmitter.

In digital input mode, the input can be configured as either an Alarm, Wait, Warning or Main Permissive when
the contact opens. This is intended to be connected to a low pressure switch.

In 4-20mA mode, a high pressure trip event will cause an alarm and a low pressure trip event can be
configured as an Alarm, Wait, Warning or Main Permissive; if the event persists after the mains have opened.
This mode is intended for use with a pressure transmitter.

The following table outlines the behavior of the Pressure Input:

2.1.2.9 LEVEL INPUT
The Level input (terminals 41-42) is meant to monitor an external level or flow measurement and provide the
necessary feedback in the event of a high and/or low level/flow event. Configurable as disabled, digital input
or 4-20mA signal through the user interface; the level input can be connected to either a switch or
transmitter.

In digital mode the level input can be used a Wait, Warning or Alarm when the contact opens. This can be
connected to a low or high trip switch depending on the application.

In 4-20mA mode the level input is used in conjunction with the low-trip and high-trip modes. These modes
are independent of one another and can be configured as a Wait, Warning or Alarm. This input is intended
to be connected to a level or flow transmitter.

The following table outlines the behavior of the Level Input:

2.1.2.10 TEMPERATURE INPUTS
The PF2200-SB has three distinct temperature inputs: Bath, Outlet and Stack; each of which are configurable
to be either a Type-K thermocouple or PT-100 RTD input.

Each of the three distinct temperature inputs mentioned above have the following set points that can be
configured via the user interface (note: depending on the mode, the temperature input may or may not
utilize all the set points below; see Temperature Mode for more details):

• High Temperature ESD Setpoint: temperature at which the system shuts down. If the temperature
input exceeds this trip point, the system will generate an alarm and if running proceed to lockout
• Pilot Off Setpoint: temperature at which the system de-energizes all valves, including the pilot, and
enters a waiting state. When the temperature falls back down below this value minus the deadband,
the system will reignite the pilot.
• Main Off Setpoint: temperature at which the system de-energizes the main valves and enters the
Pilot state. The main valves will be turned back on when the temperature drops below the Process
Control Setpoint minus the deadband.
• Process Control Setpoint: The setpoint about which the process temperature will be controlled. In
PID mode, the TCV will be actuated in relation to this setpoint. In Staged Heating mode, the HFV will
be actuated about this setpoint.
• Low Temperature Warning Setpoint: If the temperature drops below this trip point the system will
display a warning on the user interface and will continue to run.
The three temperature inputs listed above also have a user-configurable mode. The various temperature
modes are defined below:

• Disabled: Temperature input is ignored.


• High Temp ESD: Temperature input is monitored for High Temp ESD event only. Setpoints used in
this mode: High Temperature ESD and Low Temperature Warning
• Process Control Mode: Temperature input is monitored for High Temp ESD event as well as used for
process control. Setpoints used in this mode: High Temperature ESD, Pilot Off, Main Off, Process
Control and Low Temperature Warning Setpoint.
• Display Only: Temperature inputs are read in and displayed on the User Interface. The system does
NOT act on this information in any way. Setpoints used in this mode: none.

2.1.2.11 PROOF of CLOSURE (PoC) INPUT


The Proof of Closure input (terminals 11-12) is a digital input meant to be connected to a Proof of Closure
switch, indicating the closure of the main valve(s). An energized Proof of Closure input indicates that the
main valve is closed. The PF2200-SB monitors the Proof of Closure input and takes action, as outlined in the
table below.

2.1.2.12 REMOTE START INPUT
The Remote Start input (terminals 35-36) is a digital input intended to provide the ability to start the system
from an external source (e.g. a switch or PLC). The remote start input is an energized-to-run input, meaning
that if the contact is de-energized the system will proceed to a WAIT state. A toggle of the start input from
the energized to de-energized to energized position causes the system to either clear a lockout (if one is
present) or start the system (if there are no alarms). This means that if a lockout is present and the operator
wishes to start the system, two toggles of the start contact is necessary (one to clear the lockout, and the
other to start the system). This functionality is outlined in the table below.

2.1.2.13 HIGH PRESSURE INPUT


The High Pressure input (terminals 7-8) is a digital input intended to be connected to a high pressure switch.
This contact is energized to run, meaning that a de-energized contact indicates a high pressure event. The
high pressure functionality is outlined in the table below.

2.1.2.14 PROOF of MAIN LIGHT OFF (POL) INPUT
The Proof of Main Light Off input (terminals 9-10) is intended to be used in conjunction with either a TCV
capable of position feedback or a High Fire valve with light-off position indication. Capable of both 4-20mA
and Digital modes, the Proof of Main Light Off input gives the system the ability to prove a light off position
before opening the main gas valves.

In digital mode this input is intended to connect to a proof of closure switch on the HFV OR with a proof of
position switch on a TCV. In 4-20mA mode this input is intended to connect to a TCV that has positional
feedback. When in 4-20mA mode, the system will monitor the position input and cross-check with the user-
defined setpoint & tolerance fields. In either mode the input is monitored only during the transition from
pilot to main in the request light off sequence. If the contact is not proven within 60 seconds the system will
lockout.

Mechanically, the light off position proving requires a proof of closure valve for the HFV if the system is
utilizing staged heating control or in PID control mode a position switch / 4-20mA position feedback signal
from the TCV.

The following table outlines the functionality of the input.

2.1.2.15 AUXILIARY TEMPERATURE INPUT
The Auxiliary Temperature Input (terminals 43-44) is intended to be connected to a temperature sensor with
a 4-20mA interface. This 4-20mA input can be mapped to a temperature using the span settings (Max and
Min) and can be configured as: Disabled, High Temp ESD, Process Control, or Display Only. For details on the
individual modes and setpoints, see the Temperature Inputs section of this document.

2.1.2.16 AUXILIARY INPUT


The Auxiliary Inputs 1 and 2 (terminals 45-46 and terminals 47-48 respectively) are intended to be connected
to a generic I/O device that does not fit into any of the above categories of inputs. Configurable as either a
digital or 4-20mA input, this input is intended to be connected to either a switch/PLC output (digital) or
transmitter (4-20mA).

The following table outlines the modes/behavior of the Auxiliary Input:

Input Event System Behavior


Configuration
Disabled Any No Effect
De-energized (input mode set to Alarm) Alarm
De-energized (input mode set to Wait) Wait
Digital Input De-energized (input mode set to Warning) Warning
De-energized (input mode set to Main Permissive) Main Permissive
Energized Run
Out of range Alarm
Low/High Trip (input mode set to Alarm) Alarm
Low/High Trip (input mode set to Wait) Wait
4-20mA
Low/High Trip (input mode set to Warning) Warning
Low/High Trip (input mode set to Main Permissive) Main Permissive
Active range Run

Appliance Firing Rate

In addition to the features mentioned above, both auxiliary inputs have the ability to map to the appliance
firing rate. This input maps directly to the TCV output position (e.g. 4mA = 0%, 20mA = 100%). This is,
however, gated by the TCV minimum opening position. The TCV output position can only be set by the
appliance firing rate input during any process control state, in any other state the rules outlined in the TCV
section of this document.

When this mode is enabled, the process setpoint is ignored by the system and the TCV is actuated based on
the 4-20mA input.

If this input goes invalid or out of range the appliance firing rate will be set to 0% and an alarm will be set to
shut the system down.

20
Note that either Auxiliary Input 1 or 2 can be configured as an Appliance Firing Rate Input, but not both.

Process Setpoint Adjustment Input

In addition to the features mentioned above, both auxiliary inputs also support a Process Setpoint
Adjustment mode. The Process Setpoint Adjust mode is intended to be connected to a 4-20mA signal
sourced by a PLC which allows the application to provide advanced temperature control (e.g. cascaded PID).
By utilizing the span setting (max and min) for the setpoint, this system allows the process setpoint to be
adjusted based on the input signal. Note: the system still adheres to the safety constraints of the system
regarding setpoints (i.e. setpoint cannot exceed the high temp ESD setpoint). The following table outlines
the behavior of the system with respect to the Process Setpoint Adjustment input:

2.1.2.17 TEMPERATURE CONTROL VALVE (TCV) OUTPUT
The Temperature Control Valve output (terminals 13-14) is a 4-20mA output that is intended to connect to a
proportional fuel gas valve on the main fuel train. The TCV output behavior corresponds to the state of the
system, as outlined by the table below:

System State TCV Position Behavior

Where:

• Purge Position: User configurable setting from 0-100% corresponding to valve opening percentage
(0% = 4mA, 100% = 20mA) – position held while the system is not running
• Pilot Position: User configurable setting from 0-100% corresponding to valve opening percentage (0%
= 4mA, 100% = 20mA) – position held during the Ignition and Pilot states
• TCV Minimum Position: User configurable setting from 0-100% corresponding to valve opening
percentage (0% = 4mA, 100% = 20mA) – the minimum position the valve can be told to go by the
Process Control state
• Process Control Position: position of the TCV during process control. Either controlled by PID (if
enabled), or set to 100% in Staged Heating or On/Off control.
The TCV output also supports a manual override mode, where the output percentage is modifiable via the
user interface. When in manual override mode, the TCV output percentage is mapped to the manual output
position regardless of the system state.

2.1.2.18 AUXILIARY OUTPUTS
The Auxiliary Outputs 1 and 2 (terminals 37-38 and 39-40 respectively) are configurable 4-20mA output
signals. Configuration modes and corresponding behavior are shown below:

Mode Behavior
Disabled N/A
The output will follow the selected temperature input of the system. The output range
Temperature will be between 4-20mA spanned between user configurable Min and Max temperature
Echo values. If the temperature is not valid (loss of temperature input or a temperature fault)
the output will send out a 0mA signal.
Level Echo The output will follow the level input measurement of the system. The output range will
be between 4-20 mA spanned from the user configurable level span Min to the level
span Max value. If the level input is not valid or it is not enabled (loss of input signal or
an input fault) the output will send out a 0mA signal.
Aux 1 Input The output will follow the Aux 1 Input. The output range will be between 4-20 mA
Echo spanned from the user configurable Aux 1 span Min to the Aux 1 span Max value. If the
aux input is not valid or it is not enabled (loss of input signal or an input fault) the
output will send out a 0mA signal.
Aux 2 Input The output will follow the Aux 2 Input. The output range will be between 4-20 mA
Echo spanned from the user configurable Aux 2 span Min to the Aux 2 span Max value. If the
aux input is not valid or it is not enabled (loss of input signal or an input fault) the
output will send out a 0mA signal.
Modbus Echo For Aux Out 1: The output will follow the Modbus register “Modbus Remote Echo for
Aux 1”.
For Aux Out 2: The output will follow the Modbus register “Modbus Remote Echo for
Aux 2”.
If the modbus is not configured the output will send out a 0 mA signal.

2.1.3 KEYPAD
The keypad is the primary method for the operator to interface with the PF2200 system. It allows for screen
navigation, start/stop control and the adjustment of settings.

The following outlines button functionality:

Button Behavior
When pressed the user interface will prompt for confirmation of system
shutdown. A second user action is required to shut the system down by
confirming the stop with either:
• A second press of the STOP button, or
• A press of the OK button
This confirmation window will timeout after 10 seconds of inactivity.
When pressed the user interface will prompt to confirm the start request. A
second user action is required to start the system by confirming the start
with the press of the OK button. This confirmation window will timeout after
10 seconds of inactivity. Once a start sequence is sent the system will start
only if safe to do so (e.g. no Alarms or Waits present).
Context sensitive return button which will:
- Escape the current dialog
- Go back to the previous screen
- Escape from setting configuration menus

User interface navigation.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
25
Alternates between the Status screen, Settings screen, and System screen.

This button toggles display modes from Operator mode to Commissioner


mode. Commissioner mode enables access to all settings for
commissioning and Operator mode is intended as a mode to access key
operational settings that can be adjusted after the appliance has been
commissioned.

Toggles the status screen zoom level while on the status screen.
Increments/decrements a setting or cycle through items in configuration
lists when on the settings screen.

This button provides a help menu for keypad actions.

Safety Note: The keypad is intended to aid in commissioning and observe system status. As such, the
keypad is not considered part of nor should be incorporated into ANY safety function. If user shut-
down is a required safety function, then the user input must be hard-wired into the ESD input of the
BMS card.

Time

DOC-001043 / v5.2
28
2.2.1 POWER ON
Power On is the default state of the system when power is applied. In this state, the system will check if a
previous lockout condition was set and, if so, will force the system into a lockout state.

If the system previously shut-down due to a power loss and the Low Voltage Restart setting is enabled, the
system will purge and then proceed to system startup.

If there are no lockouts or alarms and the system is not automatically restarting then the system will
transition into the Ready state.

In the Power On state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 / 2 De-energized
Coil 1 / 2 De-energized
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

2.2.2 LOCKOUT
The system transitions to Lockout state when an alarm event occurs while running. The system will stay in
the Lockout state until the lockout has been acknowledged. There are four ways to acknowledge a lockout:

• User Interface
• Toggling of the Start input from De-energized to Energized
• Toggling of the Start/Stop Switch
• Modbus Interface
In the Lockout state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 / 2 De-energized
Coil 1 / 2 De-energized
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

DOC-001043 / v5.2
29
2.2.3 READY
Ready is the system state where the system is not running and no alarms are present. If there are any alarms
present while in this state, the system will move to the Alarm state. In the Ready state, the system may
proceed to start by one of the following methods:

• User Interface start


• Toggling of the Start input from De-energized to Energized
• Holding the Start/Stop switch in the ignite position for more than 2 second
• Writing a start command to “Start Stop Register” Modbus register
In the Ready state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 / 2 De-energized
Coil 1 / 2 De-energized
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

2.2.4 ALARM
Alarm is the state of the system where there is an active and persistent alarm present. Typically this is
indicative of a static problem (e.g. transmitter not connected, system voltage too low, etc.) and the system
can only exit this state when all alarms have cleared.

In the Alarm state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 / 2 De-energized
Coil 1 / 2 De-energized
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

DOC-001043 / v5.2
30
2.2.5 WAITING
Waiting is considered a “running” state of the system, with all powered outputs de-energized. The system
will hold this state until all wait conditions have been cleared or shut down if an alarm is present. Once all
waits have been cleared the system will automatically trigger a startup sequence without any user interaction
– provided no alarms are present. Note: purging after a flame loss is considered a wait.

In the Waiting state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 / 2 De-energized
Coil 1 / 2 De-energized
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

2.2.6 IGNITION
Ignition is the state where pilot flame is safely established by energizing the coil and pilot outputs while
monitoring flame presence on the ionization inputs. Actuating and monitoring of Pilot 2 can be enabled /
disabled via the user interface and should only be enabled if a multiple-pilot configuration is desired.

The sequence begins by energizing the coil output(s) and waits the Pre-Ignition Time. After the Pre-Ignition
Time, the system then energizes the pilot output(s) and monitors flame presence. This stage is referred to as
Ignition on the user interface. If a flame is not detected within the Pilot-Flame Establishing Period window,
the system will purge and enter the waiting state, while decrementing the Relights Remaining counter. If the
system tries to light 3 times and fails to establish a flame, it will proceed to Lockout (Flame-Fail). Note that a
successful establishment of flame effectively resets the Relights Remaining counter. If a flame is detected
within the Pilot-Flame Establishing Period window, the system will proceed to hold a pilot flame for a startup
delay time. This startup delay helps warmup the appliance and establish draft in the appliance. Once the
flame has been established and the startup delay time has elapsed, the system will move into the Pilot state.

If the Pilot 2 is enabled, the system requires both flames to be satisfied within the Pilot-Flame Establishing
Period in order to proceed.

If the Pilot 2 is disabled, the system only requires Pilot 1 flame to be satisfied within the Pilot-Flame
Establishing Period in order to proceed.

Any alarms or waits that occur during this state will force the system to go the Lockout state or Waiting state,
respectively.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
31
In this system state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


De-energized during Pre-Ignition
Pilot 1
Energized after Pre-Ignition
De-energized if disabled
Pilot 2
Same as Pilot 1 if enabled
Energized during and after pre-ignition
Coil 1
De-energized during startup delay
De-energized if disabled
Coil 2
Same as Coil 1 if enabled
SSV De-energized
HFV De-energized

2.2.7 PILOT
The Pilot state is a system state which represents a minimum amount of heating required to light off the main
burner. It is typically tied to the Pilot valve in the fuel gas train – meaning that the pilot valve(s) are on in this
state but the main valves are off. This state is executed in one of following situations:

• Once a flame is established during the Ignition state,


• If one of the configured temperatures exceeds the Main Off setpoint, or
• If a main permissive is configured and not satisfied
Once in the Pilot state, the system must verify all configured process temperatures are below their respective
process setpoints AND main permissive(s) (if configured) have been cleared in order to enter the Main Light
Off state.

Any alarms or waits that occur during this state will force the system to go to the Lockout State or Waiting
state, respectively.

In the Pilot state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 Energized
De-energized if disabled
Pilot 2
Energized if enabled
Coil 1 /2
SSV De-Energized
HFV

DOC-001043 / v5.2
32
2.2.8 MAIN LIGHT OFF
Once the system has a proven flame and all conditions are satisfied, the system enters the Main Light Off
state. If the system entered the Main Light Off state from the Ignition state, the Main Light Off state is held
for a configurable amount of time (Main Startup Delay Time). This parameter is configurable during
commissioning and is intended to give the appliance time to establish draft and heat up before the mains are
turned on. If the system entered the Main Light Off state from a Process Control state, the Main Startup
Delay Time is set to a fixed 5 seconds – since draft has already been established and the appliance is already
warm.

In addition to the minimum time requirements, the Main Light Off state also has the option of proving the
light off position. When Proof of Main Light off position (POL) is enabled, the Main Light Off state will hold
until either the position has been proven or 60 seconds have elapsed. If the position cannot be proven in the
allotted time, the system will enter Lockout state. For more details on the Proof of Main Light Off input, see
section 2.1.

Any alarms or waits that occur during Main Light Off still will force the system to transition to Lockout state
or Waiting state, respectively.

In the Main Light Off state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 Energized
De-energized if disabled
Pilot 2
Energized if enabled
Coil 1 /2
SSV De-Energized
HFV

DOC-001043 / v5.2
33
2.2.9 PROCESS CONTROL
Once the system has determined the mains can be turned on, it enters the Process Control state. In this
state, the system actively tries to maintain the process temperature setpoint via the actuation of valves in
various configurations. The three process control modes are:

1. On/Off Control
2. Staged Heating
3. PID Control
Any alarms or waits that occur during this state will force the system to transition to the Lockout state or
Waiting state, respectively.

In the Process Control state, the status of each powered outputs is as follows:

Powered Output Status


Pilot 1 Energized
De-energized if disabled
Pilot 2
Energized if enabled
Coil 1 /2 De-Energized
Energized or De-energized, depending on process
SSV
control state. See process control modes below for
HFV
detailed valve behavior

2.2.9.1 ON/OFF CONTROL


This is the simplest mode of operation, requiring only the SSV outputs. In this mode, the SSV outputs are
energized when the process temperature is below the process setpoint and are de-energized when above the
setpoint. In the case that the process temperature exceeds the setpoint, the temperature must fall below the
setpoint minus the dead-band in order for the SSV outputs to re-energize.

Note: this process control mode does not utilize the HFV or the TCV outputs.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
34
2.2.9.2 STAGED HEATING
Staged Heating Mode is a slightly more advanced method of control than the On/Off control, allowing an
extra stage of heating. In this mode, the system utilizes the HFV output as another heating level – giving the
system a total of three stages:

• Pilot Only (Pilot)


• Pilot + SSVs (Stage 1)
• Pilot + SSVs + HFV (Stage 2)
The diagram below outlines the behavior of the system in Staged Heating Mode

1. When the process temperature is below the process setpoint the SSV and the HFV outputs will be
energized for maximum heat output
2. When the process temperature is above the process setpoint but below the main off setpoint the SSV
outputs will remain energized and the HFV outputs will be de-energized, reducing the burner’s firing
rate.
3. When the process temperature exceeds the main off setpoint the SSV outputs de-energize. The
system will transition to the pilot state to cool down.
4. When the process temperature cools down to the process temperature setpoint minus the dead band
the SSV and the HFV outputs will be energized to heat the system back up

Note: this process control mode does not utilize the TCV output.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
35
2.2.9.3 PID CONTROL
PID Control is the most advanced process control mode, allowing the system to be able to vary the heat
demand in response to the appliance. In this mode, the system utilizes the TCV output to control a
temperature control valve, allowing the system to incrementally change output heat.

The main gas valve outputs (SSV) remain on during PID control unless the process temperature exceeds the
Main Off Setpoint. In this case, the system transitions to the Pilot state and stops PID control. Once the
system cools off such that the process temperature falls below the process setpoint minus the deadband, the
system will proceed to light off the main and resume PID control.

While in PID control, the system will attempt to maintain the process temperature at the process temperature
setpoint by modulating the system firing rate via the TCV output. As long as there are no alarms / waits AND
the temperature does not exceed the Main Off setpoints, the PID will continue to function.

Note: this process control mode does not utilize the HFV output.

3 INSTALLATION and COMMISSIONING
Installers which integrate the PF2200 and commission the system must meet the following criteria:

• Must understand local codes and how they apply to the installation (for both electrical and
mechanical aspects of the installation).
• Must understand the electrical and mechanical limitations of the product and how that relates to the
installation.
• Must verify all required safety functions prior to completing the commissioning of the appliance.
• Must be fluent in the English language (the only language this product supports).
• Must be familiar with navigating the product menus and modifying settings.
• Must understand the effect modifying a setting has on the safety and operation of the appliance.

3.1 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION


The PF2200 Single Burner BMS is designed to be configured from the user interface through a password
protection mechanism. End users are not given the ability to program any of the safety-related system
settings without the appropriate password.

3.1.1 PASSWORDS
Every setting in the PF2200 Single Burner BMS has a settings-level which is pre-programmed at the factory.
The settings level can be one of three levels:

• Level 0 (no level): settings that DO NOT impact the safety-integrity of the system AND DO NOT
impact the process operation
• Level 1: settings that DO NOT impact the safety-integrity of the system BUT can impact the process
operation
• Level 2: settings that DO impact the safety-integrity of the system
In order to modify a setting that has Level 1 or Level 2 access, the user is required to enter the appropriate
password via a prompt. Furthermore, modification of any safety critical settings must be validated prior to
starting the appliance.

Password protection and authentication of safety critical settings is done locally on the PF2200-SB BMS card,
making it more resilient to unauthorized modification.

For Level 1 and Level 2 passwords, please contact Profire Energy. Passwords shall only be distributed to
individuals that are capable of assessing the safety impact of the changes they intend to make.

Note: The PF2200 passwords timeout after 15 minutes regardless of activity from a user.

* The Bath Temperature Input is safety rated ONLY if the input is configured as a Dual. If configured as a Single element
the Bath temperature input is NOT safety rated. In order to enable a single element for the Bath temperature, the user
will be prompted with a disclaimer.

** The PF2200 must be powered from a Class 2 circuit as defined in the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA 22.2
No 1-15) or US National Electrical Code (NFPA 70).

DOC-001043 / v5.2

3.2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
All PF2200 installations must be field inspected by the Authority Having Jurisdiction to ensure proper
compliance to local electrical and gas codes. In addition, before installing the PF2200 please review the
following list of warnings. Failure to observe the following may result in death, electrocution, property
damage, product damage, and/or government fines.

3.2.1 GENERAL WARNINGS


• Installation and product use must conform to the directions in this manual.
• Solenoid powered outputs are rated to 5A max individually, however the power input to the BMS card
is fused at 10A. Care must be taken as to not exceed the 10A max input when using high-powered
solenoids.
• Do not jumper solenoid (-) terminals together under any circumstance, this will compromise the safety-
integrity of the system.
• Safety Functions must be end-to-end proven during commissioning (e.g. when using a high pressure
switch, ensure a high-pressure event presents a lock-out).

3.2.2 EXPLOSION HAZARD WARNINGS


• Do not disconnect power, open enclosure or otherwise service the product unless area is known to be
non-hazardous.
• Substitution of components may impair suitability for specified zones.
• Replacement fuses must be ceramic and of correct rating (10A, 150VDC, Slow Blow).
• Avoid unauthorized replacement of the fuse. Contact Profire Energy for fuse replacements.
• Do not remove or replace fuse when system is powered.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
47
3.2.3 INSTALLATION WARNINGS
• Electrical devices connected to the controller must meet local electrical codes and be within voltage
limits specified in this manual.
• Ensure enclosure is securely closed each time after opening. Improper closure may result in moisture
and/or other environmental damage and may also compromise the integrity of the product.
• System must be properly connected to earth-ground to prevent electrocution.
• No more than one conductor is to be used per contact point.
• Ensure field wiring is properly fused and sizes in accordance with local codes.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards in any way. The cards are not field reparable and must be
sent back to Profire Energy for replacement if damaged.
• Card installation shall be performed in accordance with local electrical code(s) by a capable electrician.
Installation and modification shall NOT be performed while the system is energized.
• Failure to provide a low-impedance path from the burner assembly to the PF2200 may result in
accidental electric shock, product damage, failure to ignite the pilot, or failure to detect flame.
• Do not connect wires or handle the electronics when powered.
• Do not modify product once installed.
• Bypass of safety function(s) is required to update software.
• All screw connections must not rely on the structural integrity of insulating materials.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
48
3.3 MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
The PF2200 Single Burner BMS cards must be mounted in an enclosure of IP54 rating or greater. There are
two enclosure options for this product, the PF2200-SB-A and the PF22000-SB-B – both of which are outlined
in section 2.1.4. Both enclosure options have four holes, located in the four corners of the product. These
holes are intended to be used in conjunction with a fastening device (e.g. nut/bolt) to secure the product to a
rigid platform.

3.3.1 ORIENTATION & LOCATION


• The PF2200 enclosure shall be mounted upright in such a way that the screen is clearly visible and the
keypad is easy to access. Recommended height of 1.5m (5ft) above ground.
• Adequate space must be given such that the enclosure door can open during maintenance /
commissioning.
• Enclosure should be mounted to minimize run-lengths to valve train (solenoids), burner assembly
(ignition coil/rod and flame detect rod) and thermocouple elements.
• When wiring ignition and flame detection circuits, the wire length between the ignition coil and pilot
should be no more than 5m (15ft). The longer the run length the less energy delivered when
sparking.
• The PF2200 should be mounted in such a way to avoid direct sunlight exposure to the screen.
Extended UV exposure may compromise viewability.

DOC-001043 / v5.2
49
3.3.2 MOUNTING CARDS
If the need arises where the cards needs to be remounted (e.g. field repair / replacement), both cards should
be securely fastened with the appropriate screw size and number of screws. For the BMS card, there are 6 x
#10-32 machine screws [11] that secure the card [3] to the enclosure. For the User Interface card, there are 4
x #10-32 nuts [10] that secure the card [2] to the enclosure through the cover [7]. See the exploded view
below for more details

DOC-001043 / v5.2
50
3.3.3 PROTECTIVE EARTHING
For the PF2200-SB-A, the metal enclosure must be properly bonded to earth ground by the installer.
Bonding must be carried out in accordance with the local electrical code (e.g. NEC in the United States and
CEC in Canada).

To ensure proper functionality of the flame detection circuit, Profire recommends the DC power supply
reference be tied to Earth Ground.

3.3.4 ELECTRICAL NOISE


Due to the variability of installation (e.g. load configuration, wiring, etc.), a ferrite bead may be required to
suppress power supply related noise on the input power to the PF2200-SB-B. Typically this is only needed for
long power line / load line run lengths and at higher load currents (e.g. >2A).

DOC-001043 / v5.2
51
4 OPERATIONS and MAINTENANCE
Operators working on or maintaining the PF2200 must meet the following criteria:

• Be fluent in the English language (the only language this product supports).
• Be familiar with navigating the product menus and modifying settings.
• Understand the effect modifying a setting has on the safety and operation of the appliance.

4.1 ASSUMPTIONS SPECIFIC to USE


• All powered outputs that are in a de-energized state are assumed to be in safe state (e.g. a de-
energized pilot output should connect to a normally closed valve to shut off gas-flow in the de-
energized state).
• All digital inputs are energized-to-run (e.g. an open contact presents an alarm / shutdown).
• Power supply and external fusing should be determined using the local electrical code (e.g. NEC in the
United States or CEC in Canada)

4.2 TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE CONDITIONS


Transportation of the product shall be in the original product packaging or equivalent. Transportation of
cards without enclosure is not recommended and should be done with the utmost care utilizing an Anti-
Static/ESD bag.

Storage temperature should be kept within the operating temperature listed in Section 3 in a dry area. Avoid
moisture buildup inside the enclosure.

under ”High Voltage Spark Gap Range”. Often times there is either excess
buildup or the rod has drooped to compromise the gap distance.
1. Ensure the solenoid is wired correctly and to the appropriate terminals.
• To ensure proper solenoid wiring, a multi-meter in OHM mode can
be used to measure the resistance between the + and – terminal of
the associated output. Note: this measurement should be done with
the BMS card powered off.
• If properly wired, the multi-meter should read a resistance of the

2. Ensure the PWM setting is correct for the appropriate solenoid.
• If using a peak-and-hold solenoid, the appropriate PWM setting can
be found in the solenoid data sheet. Typically add a margin of 5-
10% to allow for temperature variance
• If using a non-peak-and-hold solenoid, ensure the PWM setting is
set to 100%

6 MAINTENANCE
During maintenance, with respect to software and setup, visual inspection should be done to determine the
following:

• What is the firmware version being used?


• What are the appliance specific settings? An example list of settings can be found below
o Is Pressure used? Is Level Used? Is TCV Used?
o Is Pilot 2 Used? Is Outlet Temp Used? Is Stack Temp Used?
When gas fitting installation is done, a visual inspection should be done to determine the following:

• Whether drip legs are installed on the final drop and condensation points?
• Whether the pilot piping is taken off the top or the side of the supply and not the bottom?
• Whether piping and fittings are clear from burrs and defects?
• Whether an overpressure protection device is required and installed?
• Whether the regulator is of a positive shut off type for supply above 0.5 psig?
• Whether gas pressure is indicated at shutoff valves and penetrations are required?
• Whether piping is supported securely and the support spacings do not exceed 8 feet?
• Whether gauges are correctly sized to match the pressure range?
• Whether the gas line is painted or marked according to code?
• Whether swing joints are installed if they are required?
• Whether all exposed gas piping is painted?
• Whether the ends of piping are reamed?
• Whether the appliance vents are mounted securely?
• Whether all indicators and gauges can be read easily?
• Whether gas shutoffs in the upstream pilot valve train are present and easily accessible?
• Whether gas shutoffs in the downstream pressure regulator are present and easily accessible?
• Whether gas shutoffs in the upstream pressure regulator are present and easily accessible?
• Whether appliance gas shutoffs are present and easily accessible?

When any electrical installation is done, visual inspection should be done to determine the following:
• Whether all wires are stripped correctly (no copper should be seen out of the connectors)?
• Whether all wires and conduits are appropriately secured?
• Whether the correct conduit, cable seals and fittings are used for the zone?
• Whether the enclosure lugs are wired to earth ground?

A functional test should be performed to verify all appropriate user-configurable I/O ring in as alarms.
The best way to verify this is to tabulate a list of all safety-critical sensors and I/O that are wired into the

DOC-001043 / v5.2
78
PF2200 and test their functionality one at a time. This can be done by forcing an alarm on each I/O
separately and verifying the PF2200 annunciates the appropriate alarm.

6.1 REPAIR and REPLACEMENT


Profire Energy does not support on-site repairs for cards. For replacement cards contact Profire Energy
customer service.

In the event replacement card(s) are used, care must be taken to ensure proper firmware is loaded on both
the User Interface and BMS cards. If the User Interface and BMS cards have different software bundles
loaded on them, the system will fail to operate correctly and will require a firmware update to match.

For more details on the firmware update procedure, contact Profire Energy.

6.2 DECOMMISSIONING
When decommissioning the system, the appliance should be safely shut down (i.e. all safety outputs are
turned off and there are no gas leaks on site). Once the appliance is in a safe state, the power should be
disconnected from the PF2200. All cards should be treated like any other piece of electronics (e.g. be sent to
a recycling depot).

6.3 USEFUL LIFE


The useful life of the PF2200 is 10 years. Prior to the expiry of that period the customer should contact
Profire Energy for a suitable replacement.

6.4 MANUFACTURER NOTIFICATION


Any detected failures that compromise the functional safety of the system should be reported to Profire
Energy immediately. Please contact Profire Energy customer service.

9.2 SAFETY FUNCTIONS
The PF2200 Single Burner BMS monitors and controls a burner using a pre-defined operating sequence. This
operating sequence includes controlling gas valves and ignition coils while continually monitoring flame
presence and interlock inputs. In the event of a loss of flame, the system will proceed to de-energize the gas
flow means with the user-configurable option of re-lighting. If the pre-defined operating sequence fails due
to an alarm, the system will proceed to lockout and requires a user action before continuing. The following is
a list of safety functions, associated timing and demand modes:

Safety Function / Event Associated Timing Demand

ESD Contact Open to Powered Outputs De-energized 1.0 seconds Low
Pilot 1 Flame Loss to Powered Outputs De-energized 4 seconds Low

The above alarm response times are the maximum response times of the PF2200-SB as a logic solver only.
To understand the impact of these response times on the SIF Process Safety Time, the full safety function
must be analyzed. For example, a simple safety function consists of an ESD switch connected to the ESD
input and solenoid(s) connected to the Pilot & SSV outputs. To understand the SIF Process Safety time, all
three elements must be analyzed as follows:

𝑇𝑃 = 𝑇𝐸𝑆𝐷 + 𝑇𝐿𝑂𝐺𝐼𝐶 + 𝑇𝑆𝑂𝐿𝐸𝑁𝑂𝐼𝐷

Where,

TP = total process safety time


TESD = response time of the switch element
TLOGIC = response time of the logic solver for this respective safety function (0.6 seconds in this case)
TSOLENOID = response time of the solenoid to actuate

9.3 SAFETY INTEGRITY


The PF2200-SB has been designed and certified to meet functional safety standards according to IEC 61508
Parts 1 through 3. This section is intended to provide safety-related product information related to the
aforementioned standard.

9.3.1 SYSTEMATIC CAPABILITY


The PF2200-SB has met manufacturer design process requirements of SIL 2. These requirements are
intended to assure sufficient integrity against systematic errors of design by Profire Energy. A SIF designed
with this product must not be used at a SIL level higher than SIL 2 without “prior use” justification by the end
user or use of diverse technology redundancy in the SIF design.

9.3.2 RANDOM CAPABILITY


The PF2200-SB is a Type B product, meaning the product is deemed a “Complex” element (using micro
controllers). Based on a Safe Fail Fraction (SFF) between 90% and 99%, when the PF2200-SWB is used non-
redundantly, it can be used in a SIL 2 application @ HFT=0. Note that the SFF must be calculated based on
the physical configuration of the product (i.e. including required sensors and final elements in the
calculation).

9.3.6.1 EVALUATING a SAFETY FUNCTION
The Safety Parameters in the above table provide a synopsis of the failure rates in the PF2200 Single Burner
BMS from a component perspective. In order to utilize the parameters in a safety function, the safety
function must first be identified and the associated failure rates must be formulated together.

Note: the following examples only concern the logic solver (PF2200) failure rates. For a complete analysis, the
failure rates of the endpoints (actuators / sensors) must also be taken into consideration).

Example 1) A Safety Function must exist which turns off both the pilot and main gas valves when the system
detects there is no flame present while running. It is also desired that this Safety Function ensures that Ignition
does not happen out of sequence.

The first step in evaluating the Safety Function is to identify the PF2200 components that are needed. In this
example, the following components are utilized:

• Common: whenever a safety function is utilized in the PF2200, the common component must be
included
• Flame Detection Input (Ion 1)
• Powered Output (Pilot 1 and SSV)
• Ignition Output (Coil 1)
The failure rate of the resultant Safety Function is a summation of all its corresponding pieces, i.e.)

𝜆 = 𝜆𝐶𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑜𝑛 + 𝜆𝐼𝑜𝑛1 + 𝜆𝑃𝑖𝑙𝑜𝑡1 + 𝜆𝑆𝑆𝑉 + 𝜆𝐶𝑜𝑖𝑙1

The resultant calculations are as follows:

𝜆𝑆𝐷 = 292 + 13.4 + 50 + 50 + 0 = 405.4 𝐹𝐼𝑇


𝜆𝑆𝑈 = 57 + 0.24 + 0.3 + 0.3 + 1 = 58.84 𝐹𝐼𝑇

𝜆𝐷𝐷 = 225 + 0 + 16 + 16 + 55 = 312 𝐹𝐼𝑇

𝜆𝐷𝑈 = 51 + 0.24 + 0.16 + 0.16 + 2 = 53.56 𝐹𝐼𝑇


(𝜆𝑆𝐷 + 𝜆𝑆𝑈 + 𝜆𝐷𝐷 ) 405.4 + 58.84 + 312
𝑆𝐹𝐹 = = = 93.5%
(𝜆𝑆𝐷 + 𝜆𝑆𝑈 + 𝜆𝐷𝐷 + 𝜆𝐷𝑈 ) 405.4 + 58.84 + 312 + 53.56

DOC-001043 / v5.2
95
Example 2) A Safety Function must exist which turns off Pilot 1, SSV and Coil 1 outputs if the ESD input is de-
energized OR if the Temperature Input (RTD) reports a high temperature OR if the Pressure Input reports a high
pressure.

Same as Example 1, we first must identify the PF2200 components that are needed:

• Common: whenever a safety function is utilized in the PF2200, the common component must be
included
• Temperature Input (RTD)
• Configurable Input (Pressure)
• Digital Input (ESD)
• Powered Output (Pilot 1 and SSV)
• Ignition Output (Coil 1)
Calculations will now flow the same way as Example 1:

𝜆 = 𝜆𝐶𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑜𝑛 + 𝜆𝑅𝑇𝐷 + 𝜆𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒 + 𝜆𝑃𝑖𝑙𝑜𝑡1 + 𝜆𝑆𝑆𝑉 + 𝜆𝐶𝑜𝑖𝑙1

𝜆𝑆𝐷 = 292 + 0 + 31 + 0.14 + 50 + 50 + 0 = 423.14 𝐹𝐼𝑇


𝜆𝑆𝑈 = 57 + 0 + 0.3 + 5 + 0.3 + 0.3 + 1 = 63.9 𝐹𝐼𝑇

𝜆𝐷𝐷 = 225 + 7 + 11 + 0 + 16 + 16 + 55 = 330 𝐹𝐼𝑇

𝜆𝐷𝑈 = 51 + 0.01 + 0.15 + 1 + 0.16 + 0.16 + 2 = 54.48 𝐹𝐼𝑇


(𝜆𝑆𝐷 + 𝜆𝑆𝑈 + 𝜆𝐷𝐷 ) 423.14 + 63.9 + 330
𝑆𝐹𝐹 = = = 93.7%
(𝜆𝑆𝐷 + 𝜆𝑆𝑈 + 𝜆𝐷𝐷 + 𝜆𝐷𝑈 ) 423.14 + 63.9 + 330 + 54.48

9.3.7 SUGGESTED PROOF TEST
The following is a suggested Proof Test for the PF2200-SB:

1. Bypass the safety function and take appropriate action to avoid a false trip.
2. Retrieve any diagnostic and take appropriate action.
3. Get the system into a fired state (e.g. with flame present and being monitored by the PF2200)
4. Remove the flame and confirm all PF2200-SB safety critical outputs (main valve, pilot valve, and coil
outputs) have become de-energized and a manual reset is required to return to normal operation.
5. For any other safety functions involving sensor signals (e.g. ESD, Temperature, Pressure, Level, etc.)
repeat steps 3 and 4, but by tripping the sensor signal instead of removing flame.
6. Inspect the PF2200 for any visible damage or contamination
7. Remove the bypass and otherwise restore normal operation
The above suggested proof test yields the following Proof Test Coverage:

Component λDUPT PTC


Common to all components 36 29%
Temperature Input (RTD Mode) 0.01 0%
Temperature Input (Thermocouple Mode) 0.1 0%
Digital Input (ESD, Start, PoC) 0.15 99%
Configurable Input (Pressure, Level, Aux In 1&2, Aux Temp, POLO) 0.01 0%
Flame Detection Input (Ion 1&2) 0.24 0%
Ignition Output (Coil 1&2) 1 47%
Powered Output (Pilot 1&2, SSV) 0.16 0%
Where: λDUPT = Dangerous undetected failure rate after performing the recommended proof test0

9.3.8 DIAGNOSTIC TEST INTERVAL


The diagnostic test interval of the PF2200 Single Burner BMS is 10s.
