2.4 Manual test buttons (in priority order)
Note: When these buttons are released, the product will return to 'PV' or 'end' depending if
pressed in run or commissioning mode.
AL Alarm button
This button can be used to test the alarm relay and the external circuits. The product will display,
'AL' + 'tSt' (meaning test) + 'PV' (TDS of conductivity) Note: The Alarm only occurs whilst the
key is pressed.
Valve button
This button can open the valve. If a purge time is set, the valve will remain open for the preset
purge time and will update the TDS reading. The product will display 'PV' + 'Pur' (meaning
purge) + 'bLd' (meaning blowdown). The purge interval will be reset. If continuous mode is
selected (purge time = 0) the valve will open for a minute. The product will display 'PV' + 'bld'.
Note: In commission mode, the valve only opens whilst the key is pressed.
CLN
Manual clean button
This button can electrically clean the probe for 20 seconds. The product will display PV + CLn
(meaning clean). On completion of the cleaning time, the controller will revert to normal control
after another 20 seconds. This is to allow any bubbles to disperse. Note: In commission mode,
the cleaning only occurs whilst the key is pressed.
Additional information on probe cleaning
If it is found that the calibration has drifted to more than twice its original setting, then the probe
may need cleaning.
15 minutes after the probe has been cleaned, it should then be possible to recalibrate the
controller near to its original level. If not, the probe may not be sufficiently clean, so repeat
the cleaning procedure. In most cases the controller can then be recalibrated. In exceptional
circumstances, where abnormal scaling has been allowed to occur in the boiler, it may still not
be possible to recalibrate the controller. In this case, it is permissible to repeat the cleaning
period in 5-minute steps up to a maximum of 30 minutes, checking the calibration after each
step. Wait for 15 minutes after each cycle to allow the system to stabilize.
Important note: The use of the probe cleaning function must not be regarded as a substitute
for adequate water treatment. If scale is forming on the probe tip it is a certain warning that
scale will also be forming on the boiler tubes. Boiler water treatment must be investigated.
Over-use of the probe cleaning function may shorten the life of the probe.
2.5 View parameter mode
Press the button in run mode to view and step through the parameters selected. Each
parameter will remain on view for a further 2 minutes unless the button is pressed again.

2.9 Equipment delivery, handling and storage
Factory shipment
The product is tested, calibrated and inspected prior to shipment to ensure proper operation.
Receipt of shipment
Each carton should be inspected at the time of delivery for possible external damage. Any visible
damage should be recorded immediately on the carrier’s copy of the delivery slip.
Each carton should be unpacked carefully and its contents checked for damage. If it is found that
some items have been damaged or are missing, notify Spirax Sarco immediately and provide
full details. In addition, damage must be reported to the carrier with a request for their on-site
inspection of the damaged item and its shipping carton.
Storage
If the product is to be stored for a period prior to installation, the environmental storage conditions
should be at a temperature between 0°C and 65°C (32°F and 149°F), and between 10% and
90% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Ensure there is no condensation within the unit before installing and connecting the power.
Operators instructions
An alternative operator instruction manual, in place of this manual, for operating the equipment
is required. This will avoid the commissioning menu passcode being disclosed to the operator.
The alarm reset passcode may optionally be disclosed if this is deemed necessary.

IM-P403-88 AB Issue 5

3.1 Function
The product can be configured to control TDS / conductivity of water.
Once fully commissioned, the TDS value is displayed in μS/cm (or ppm if selected).
Note: Conductivity is expressed in parts per million (ppm) or micro Siemens per centimetre
(µS/cm). Micro Siemens /centimetre is becoming the more common unit, and is therefore
the default setting.
If the water conductivity exceeds the Set Point level, the TDS value shown on the display will
alternate with ‘bLd', and the valve relay will be energised until the conductivity drops below 5%
of full scale (FS) below the set point.
If the system is carrying out a purge, The TDS value will alternate with 'Pur', and the valve
relay will be energised until the conductivity drops 5% (FS) below the Set Point.
If the water conductivity exceeds the alarm level, the displayed TDS value will alternate
with 'AL', and the valve relay will be energised until the conductivity drops 3% (FS) below
the alarm level.
3.2 Inputs
The product can accept a signal from a Spirax Sarco conductivity probe (CP10 or CP30)
and a Pt100 temperature sensor. A CP32 probe may also be used with the BC3150, but will
not provide the scale monitoring and self-cleaning features.
A Pt100 temperature sensor may be connected to provide temperature compensation (2%/°C).
This is recommended if the boiler is working at varying pressures, or for other applications,
such as condensate monitoring or coil boilers, where the temperature may vary. If a Pt100 is
not fitted, the product uses a default temperature of 184°C (10 bar g).
3.3 Outputs
3.3.1 Continuous output
Used when the probe is mounted in the boiler. The probe is able to constantly monitor the
conductivity from the probe tip to the boiler shell.

3.3.2 Purge output
Used only when the probe is mounted in the blowdown line, Purge ensures the sensor measures
the conductivity at boiler temperature. The purge duration time is the time the valve is open to
enable a representative boiler sample to reach the probe. A purge occurs every 30 minutes
either independent of burner firing, or dependent on cumulative boiler firing time.
3.3.3 Pulsed output
For smaller boilers where the capacity of the blowdown valve is relatively high compared to
the boiler size, the blowdown may be set to pulsed, rather than continuous output, opening
for 10 seconds, and closing for 20 seconds. This slows the rate at which the boiler water is
removed so that the level is not unduly affected, avoiding the risk of triggering a low water alarm.
3.3.4 4 - 20mA retransmit
An isolated 4 - 20 mA output is provided as standard, and may be used for remote display
of the TDS level or as an output to a computerised management system.
3.4 Other features
To prevent unwanted or inadvertent changes being made, most commissioning parameters
are protected with a pass code.
The BC3150 can communicate via an infrared link between adjacent controllers – see
Section 7, Communications.

3.6 Typical applications -
condensate contamination detection system (CCD)
System description
Note: Most countries have regulations that limit temperature and contamination levels for
fluids being dumped to drain. It is also essential to follow guidelines issued by bodies such
as the UK Health and Safety Executive.
The Spirax Sarco CCD system monitors and displays the conductivity of condensate return,
and will redirect the flow to drain if the conductivity increases above a pre-set level to avoid
contaminated water being returned to the boiler feedtank. It will not detect contaminants that
do not change the conductivity, such as oils, fats, or sugars.
A conductivity sensor and a temperature sensor are mounted in a bypass line as
shown in Figure 9. A check valve in the main line ensures a flow past the sensor under
low flow conditions. The 500 mm head prevents flash steam flow in the bypass line.
We recommend a 3-port diverter valve such as the Spirax Sarco QL. A spring retract
pneumatic actuator is normally fitted to cause the valve to divert on failure of the air supply.
Alternatively, two 2-port valves (M20, for example) may be used as shown in Figure 10,
one as a spring-to-close isolating valve in the condensate return line, and one as
a spring-to-open dump valve, in the drain line. On detection of high conductivity, the
isolating valve closes and the dump valve opens, both under spring pressure.
Suitable 3-port solenoid valves may be selected from the Spirax Sarco range, and are
described in separate literature.
