Ethernet link to the cloud plus a built-in web server
Plant faults reported by SMS
Two-way Modbus gateway and a 1200 m sensor bus
User access levels with daily, monthly and annual reports
The FCH3256-01 puts a central heating plant under intelligent control: it sets plant temperature from the outdoor temperature and the building's actual demand, rotates boilers and pumps lead–lag, and by cutting the number of start–stop cycles takes 30–40 % off fuel use while extending equipment life. Five temperature sensors — collector flow and return, hot-water flow and return, and ambient — give it the real state of the system, and the operator reaches every setting and report from the 3.5-inch touch screen, the local network or the fidarcloud server.
