An Energy-Efficient Boiler Control System at a PLC Price

MTL Open System Technologies (MOST) Matrix Boiler Control System is the premier, low-cost solution for the industrial boiler market. For affordable, reliable power plant automation, this system combines industry-leading open control components, operator interface, engineering tools and control hardware.

At about the same cost as a traditional PLC, the Matrix Boiler Control System merges robust control hardware with DCS and PLC capabilities into one platform. It brings together the tools needed to create, execute, document, manage and maintain a boiler control system.

System Benefits

Offering full functionally and true energy-efficient boiler control, the Matrix system benefits include:

Reduce Initial System Costs

• Industry-standard hardware components
• Off-the-shelf software applications
• Concurrent project implementation

Compress Project Timelines

• Eliminates redundant configuration
• Generates system documentation
• Eliminates repetitive programming
• Streamlines system checkout and tuning

Lower System Maintenance

• Generates as-built documentation
• Ensures hardware and software migration
• Reduced training requirements
• Less reliance on outside vendors
• Reduced spare part costs

Boiler Control System

The system centralizes and coordinates project engineering, including:

• instrument index
• I/O database configuration
• control strategy development (process and discrete)
• process visualization (operator graphics and faceplates)
• historian (alarming and trending)
• project management

You receive a full-featured distributed control system, a fully engineered control solution and complete installation for a price that is less than half of what you might expect to pay for a stripped-down boiler control system alone.
