Product Details And What Is Included

PremierSync-700R controls the selected deaerators, condensate/surge tanks, and boilers from one balance-of-plant panel. Use the three-step configurator alongside this description to build your request.

Balance Of Plant, Feedwater & Tank Control

Simplify boiler plant operation with integrated balance-of-plant controls.

PremierSync brings essential boiler plant support functions together in one configurable control panel. From plant demand management and lead/lag sequencing to feedwater pressure regulation and tank level control, PremierSync provides an integrated control solution tailored to your application.

Flexible Feedwater And Tank Control

Configure control functions for deaerators, condensate/surge tanks, and boiler feedwater systems. Available functions include:

  • Plant Master Control: boiler plant demand management.
  • Lead/Lag Sequencing: boiler start/stop sequencing and duty rotation. Select Plant Master, Lead/Lag, or Both to suit your application.
  • Tank Level Control: level monitoring, makeup water control (tank level), and modulating valve commands.
  • Feedwater Pump Control: pump start/stop, lead/lag sequencing, and variable-speed drive (VFD) control signals.
  • Pressure Control: feedwater header pressure regulation and selected tank pressure monitoring. Deaerator tank pressure and feedwater pressure are separate measurements and control functions.
  • System Monitoring: tank levels, pressures, temperatures, pump status, and operating conditions as configured.
  • Plant Integration: interfaces with combustion controls and other plant automation systems.

Select the functions needed for your application. SHC reviews and confirms the final operating sequence, control interlocks, instrumentation requirements, and system interfaces during project engineering.

Standard Base Configuration

  • 15-inch touchscreen (HMI); optional 10-inch downgrade or 19-inch upgrade.
  • Control-panel functions for the equipment and operating arrangements you select.
  • Logic-controller and HMI programming, including custom HMI graphics for the selected application.
  • Standard design documentation: control-system wiring diagram, general arrangement drawing, I/O list, and controls narrative.
  • Automatic calculation of the defined input/output (I/O) signals and required cards.
  • Optional enclosure, touchscreen, network, power, and spare I/O capacity upgrades.
  • Final controller hardware, enclosure size, interfaces, and scope confirmed by SHC.

Equipment, Controls And Connections

  • Deaerators: select up to 2 tanks. Included measurements are tank pressure, tank level, tank temperature, and feedwater pressure.
  • Condensate/Surge Tanks: select up to 2 tanks. Included measurements are tank level and tank temperature.
  • Tank pumps and valves: select up to 6 pumps and 2 makeup water valves (tank level control) per tank. Deaerators also offer recirculation and pegging-steam control. Tank instruments and valves connect directly to the panel using field wiring. Settings apply to every tank of the same type; use Project Notes to describe different arrangements.
  • Pump-drive connections: choose Hardwired or Ethernet. Hardwired pumps include start, running-feedback, and analog-feedback signals. Hardwired VFDs also include a speed command.
  • Boilers: select up to 10 boilers and choose Steam or Hot Water. Select Plant Master to control plant demand, Lead/Lag to sequence boilers and rotate their duty, or Both for demand control and sequencing.
  • Boiler connections: choose Hardwired, Ethernet, or Modbus. Hardwired connections include firing-rate command, firing-rate feedback, running feedback, and four process measurements.
  • Plant Master input: plant header pressure for Steam, or water outlet temperature for Hot Water. Header steam flow or water flow is a separate measurement, counted once per panel.
  • Network signals: Ethernet and Modbus values do not use physical I/O channels. Selecting Modbus automatically adds the protocol-conversion option once per panel.

The Automatic I/O And Card Schedule shows the required cards. The Defined Signal Breakdown lists each expected signal and its connection type. SHC confirms the final signal list and network compatibility.

I/O Capacity

  • 16 channels per digital input card and relay output card.
  • 16 channels per analog input card; 8 channels per analog output card.
  • Required card counts round up for each signal type. Extra cards add spare capacity.
  • Maximum 16 total I/O cards per panel, including extra cards. If all slots are used, unused extra-card choices are hidden; selected extra cards can still be reduced.

What Is Included And What Requires A Separate Quote?

The online configurator prices the PremierSync control panel and your selected options. Tanks, pumps, field instruments, control valves, VFDs, equipment sizing, and field installation are not included unless specifically identified in an SHC quotation.

Product photographs illustrate completed applications and may show equipment outside the configured scope.

The panel can provide pump-speed commands without supplying the VFD itself. If you would like SHC to supply pump drives, select that request and enter the motor horsepower, supply voltage, and number of phases. Drives and additions without a published price require a separate formal quotation. Sizing assistance is available on request.

Need A Custom Solution?

For condensate return arrangements beyond the tank controls in this configurator, hot wells, water softeners, air handling equipment, or other specialized balance-of-plant applications, contact SHC for a project-specific quotation.

Additional Systems Available By Formal Quotation

The following control and monitoring functions can be added to a PremierSync system upon formal quotation request. They are outside the standard online configuration and are not included in its budgetary price. SHC will confirm the control scope, interfaces, I/O, hardware, and pricing for your application.

  • Fuel Supply System: manages natural gas supply and fuel-oil system distribution.
  • Compressed Air System: controls plant air compressors and instrument air.
  • Water Treatment: monitors reverse-osmosis (RO) systems, water softeners, and chemical treatment.
  • Steam Distribution: controls steam headers, pressure-reducing stations, and auxiliary steam.
  • Electrical Distribution: monitors motor control centers (MCCs), breakers, transformers, and auxiliary power.
  • Auxiliary Equipment: controls ventilation, sump pumps, and other supporting equipment.

Request a formal quotation from SHC to include these systems. Field-equipment supply and sizing are included only when expressly stated in the quotation.

Engineering And Quotation

Application-specific safety interlocks, including low-level protection and pump permissives, must be defined during engineering. Variable-speed feedwater pumps may require minimum-flow protection or recirculation; SHC reviews these requirements during engineering rather than assuming they are included as standard configured functions.

The I/O review lists the defined signals; it is a preliminary schedule. Additional feedback, faults, resets, and interlocks are excluded unless listed. SHC confirms the final signal list, hardware, enclosure, compatibility, and price before an order is placed.
