  2. Vaillant Group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaillant_Group

    The history of the Vaillant Group dates back to 1874, when Johann Vaillant set up a master fitter's business. In 1894 Johann Vaillant patented a new "closed-system" gas-fired bathroom boiler. [3] This was the first device that made it possible to heat water hygienically, without contaminating it with combustion gases.

  3. eBUS (serial buses) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBUS_(serial_buses)

    The eBUS 2-wire interface is an asynchronous serial port with active-low voltage that exchanges 8-bit bytes with start and (single) stop bits (no parity bit), at a symbol rate of 2400 baud, and can be implemented with a standard UART plus a voltage converter.

  4. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    When DHW is used, a combination boiler stops pumping water to the heating circuit and diverts all the boiler's power to heating DHW. Some combis have small internal water storage vessels combining the energy of the stored water and the gas or oil burner to give faster DHW at the taps or to increase the DHW flow rate.

  5. OpenTherm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenTherm

    OpenTherm was founded in 1996 because multiple manufacturers needed a simple-to-use communicating system between room controller and boiler. It had to run, like the existing controllers, over the existing two wires, not polarity sensitive, without the use of batteries.

  6. Condensate pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate_pump

    The steam produced in the boiler can heat equipment and processes a considerable distance away. Once steam is used it turns to hot water or condensate. This pump and possibly many more around the plant returns this hot water back to a make-up tank closer to the boiler, where it can be reclaimed, chemically treated, and reused, in the boiler ...

    Vaillant may refer to: Vaillant (surname) Vaillant (automobile) Vaillant, Haute-Marne, a commune of the Haute-Marne department, France; Vaillant and Vaillant, le journal de Pif, children's magazines; Vaillant Group, a group of companies operating in the HVAC and Renewable Energy sectors; a ship sunk by an iceberg in 1897 with the loss of 78 lives

  8. National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Board_of_Boiler...

    The National Board lab supports industry research and development by testing new designs, serving as a comparative standard for other laboratories, validating new concepts, and – upon jurisdiction request – assist in boiler and pressure vessel incident investigations. [4]

  9. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    In traditional plumbing in the UK, the space-heating boiler is set up to heat a separate hot water cylinder or water heater for potable hot water. Such water heaters are often fitted with an auxiliary electrical immersion heater for use if the boiler is out of action for a time. Heat from the space-heating boiler is transferred to the water ...
