CB-Hawk ICS
Integrated Boiler Control System
CB-Hawk ICS
For most of the past 75 years, boiler and combustion control was easy.
Today, with aggressive Return-On-Investment (ROI) demands, rising fuel costs and environmental mandates that will only become more stringent over time only one company has a straightforward and integrated solution.
If you want it all boilers, boiler control, safety assurance, cost-efficiencies, hardware, software, startup, integration and support the company is Cleaver-Brooks. The solution is the CB-Hawk ICS.
If you need to specify or manage a single boiler you need the CB-Hawk ICS.
If you need to manage multiple boilers in a lead/lag, master/slave scenario you need the CB-Hawk ICS.
If you need the superior ruggedness and uptime assurance of Programmable Logic Control (PLC) technology you need the CB-Hawk ICS.
If you need to communicate with process control, building automation, environmental control or enterprise-wide information technology systems, instantly, either from within your facility or from anywhere around the world you need the CB-Hawk ICS.
If you want it all, for either new or retrofit applications, from one resource boilers, boiler control, safety assurance, cost-efficiencies, hardware, software, startup, integration and support there is only one company and one solution.
Cleaver-Brooks in sharp contrast to non-integrated control vendors offers fully-integrated solutions. Cleaver-Brooks designs, builds, delivers and supports boilers as well as designs, integrates, delivers and supports the control systems. Non-integrated control vendors who compete with Cleaver-Brooks tend to use either Personal Computer-based (PC-based) systems or proprietary microprocessor-based systems. PC-based systems suffer the same problems that any office or home computer experiences such as crashes, system errors, hard disk errors, viruses and security vulnerabilities. Nonintegrated control vendors who use proprietary, microprocessor-based technology may gain some reliability advantages over their PC-based counterparts but, these home grown systems are prone to failures that are difficult to diagnose and costly to repair.
BURNER CONTROL
Monitors the status of the Flame Safety control including flame signal and the status of the inputs that allow the boiler to start. Inputs monitored include: Burner Switch Position, Load Demand, Limits, External Interlock and Assured Low Fire Cut-Off (ALFCO).
Cleaver-Brooks, is the only fullyintegrated boiler control company a company who designs boilers, burners and the systems that control them. Cleaver-Brooks has chosen advanced PLC technology because it is robust, powerful, industrially-hardened and because it communicates its control and monitoring information easily using industry-standard protocols such as ModBus, BackNet, Lon Works and Ethernet/IP. Cleaver-Brooks selected Rockwell Automations Allen-Bradley PLC as its hardware platform. Allen-Bradley PLCs are #1 in the world in terms of technology, reliability, installed base and ease of integration. PLC technology is the Gold Standard for boiler and combustion control. This is why Cleaver-Brooks uses PLC control as the foundation for the CB-Hawk ICS

How it Works
The CB-Hawk ICS is custom designed for each application. The level of functionality varies depending on the needs of the end-user and the demands of the application itself. The core functional elements of the CB-Hawk ICS reside in an Allen-Bradley Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). This PLC contains the functionality that allows for many levels of monitoring and control including multiple fuel capabilities (up to 3 fuels), O2 trim/monitoring and programming, communications with the combustion controller, control of the optional high-efficiency Variable Speed Drive (VSD), Lead/Lag (master/slave) multiple boiler control and the monitoring and control of boiler water level. All of this monitoring and control data can be transmitted and displayed either on site or anywhere in the world via the PLCs flexible and powerful communications capabilities. The CB-Hawk ICS also drives an easyto-use Human Machine Interface (HMI) that displays a clear yet informationpacked Graphical User Interface (GUI). So, if you need to work with the CBHawk ICS on site its easy. If you need to be informed of status and/or alarms remotely the CB-Hawk ICS can do so via e-mail, pager, Blackberry (or similar device) or via an HTML (Internet) interface. The CB-Hawk ICS can easily share its data with Building Automation Systems (BAS) from companies such as Johnson Controls, Honeywell, etc. If needed, data can be shared using standard protocols with enterprise-wide systems such as SAP, J.D. Edwards, Baan, etc. so that stakeholders in engineering, financial as well as process and building control can monitor boiler functionality remotely and in real time. The CB-Hawk ICS delivers all of this functionality while providing the most cost-efficient and safest boiler and combustion control available.
