Welcome! In this Issue...
Our aim is to provide you with the products and answers you need to deliver superior combustion control solutions to your customers. So what’s on your customer’s mind as we brace for the winter months ahead? Controlling rising fuel prices and the impact on the bottom line. This opens the door for OEM burner/boiler reps to offer energy-saving solutions to their customers. Now’s a great time for you to talk to your customer’s about the benefits of the LMV Linkageless Burner Management System – the focus of this month’s e-newsletter.

The O2 Trim System optimizes control of the burner and reduces energy costs.The SQM4 actuators are available in torque ranges of 27, 180 or 320 in.-lbs. for highly accurate and reliable control.

to prevent detection of the spark or its reflection. The detector is self-checking and approved for use on burners that operate on a continuous basis. The self-checking function has no moving parts to ensure reliable operation and long-life.

As a solution provider for your customers, you’ll feel more than confident selling the LMV system. With world-wide approval and top-notch technical support, you’ll know you are delivering a fully integrated system that is not only easy to install and use, but also provides improved burner performance and efficiency, and ensures accurate control and safe operation.

You Should Know

    O.K., so mentioning the fuel-saving benefits of a linkageless system grabbed your customer’s attention. Now, to close the deal, here are the top three things they should know about the Siemens LMV system:

1.  It’s user friendly. Programming and commissioning of the LMV takes minutes, not days – so your start-up time is brief and your customer is up and running fast. The AZL display provides fast, easy programming and at-a-glance monitoring. It displays the current burner status at all times, including flame signal strength, firing rate and set point. Plus, annunciation of over 500 standard fault conditions enables fast troubleshooting. And, to further enhance the ease-of-use, all models will soon feature a backlit display.

2.  It improves burner performance and efficiency. SQM4 Linkageless Actuators provide extreme accuracy for a burner. Driven by a digital Can-Bus signal, the actuator’s movement is accurate to 1/10th of one degree. A digital feedback signal ensures the correct position is maintained throughout the actuator’s modulating range.

If an actuator should fall out of position, the LMV Burner Management System automatically locks out. This tight control ensures that the burner will always perform with repeatability and accuracy as well as within the recommended safety parameters. SQM4 actuators are available in three torque ranges – 27, 180 and 320 in.-lbs. – to handle any type of control needs. The bottom line? Accurate and reliable controls that optimize fuel usage. And, when a boiler has Siemens controls on it, it’s going to perform better.

3.  It’s reliable. And it’s got to prove it before it even leaves the factory. We perform rigorous testing – on every i/o function, every line of code – so it’s ready to withstand the most demanding applications.

Once installed, digital positioning feedback from actuators ensure precise control, unmatched repeatability and proven reliability. The solid-state IR flame detector continuously monitors the flame and filters line voltage frequencies
