ETC 6212 Water Level
ETC6212 & ETC6215 Water Level Control Modules
Smart Boiler Water Management for Industrial Applications
🔧 ETC6212 – Intelligent Water Level & TDS Control
The ETC6212 Daughter Board delivers advanced, automated water level and boiler water quality management for demanding industrial environments. Designed for seamless integration with the ETC6000 series, it offers high accuracy, comprehensive safety features, and advanced control strategies.
⚙️ Key Capabilities
-
Dual 4–20mA Level Probe Inputs
Enables precise, redundant drum level measurement for increased reliability. -
Integrated TDS & Temperature Monitoring
Direct support for TDS probes and PT100 sensors for water quality control and thermal profiling. -
Relay Outputs
Trigger alarms for high/low water levels and support integration with external systems. -
Isolated 4–20mA Output
Ensures smooth, interference-free communication with supervisory equipment. -
Wide Power Compatibility
Operates on 24–230 VAC, simplifying installation across various facilities. -
Environmental Protection
Rated IP40 (indoor) or IP54 (outdoor) for rugged durability.
📊 Control Strategy Support
-
Single-Element Control: For stable load systems using only water level feedback.
-
Two-Element Control: Adds steam flow input for more responsive regulation.
-
Three-Element Control: Incorporates feedwater flow for precision in variable-load environments.
🔄 Automated Blow-Down Functionality
ETC6212 automates the boiler blow-down process based on:
-
Measured TDS levels
-
Time-based intervals
-
Maximum time since last cycle
This improves system hygiene, reduces manual intervention, and prolongs boiler life.
