smartblock Features
The Technology Behind smartblock
The pulse of the smartblock engines are controlled by the newly developed GSC technology (gas stream combustion). With this new combustion procedure a complete flaming of the combustion chamber, optimized by a minimized inside surface, is achieved. Thus uniformity of the combustion and the thermodynamic efficiency reach top values.
The result is the smartblock engine. Solid, robust, highly efficient and service-friendly.
This new GSC technology is a procedure for which patents have been applied for and the utility model has been registered.
Intelligent Reduction in Emissions
A further milestone in the construction of the smartblock is the development of the patent pending exhaust gas heat exchanger module. Many other individually installed assemblies in the unit can be replaced by this revolutionary and compact module.
In the heat exchange module the water- cooled exhaust gas collector pipe, the cooling water expansion vessel, thus monitoring of the coolant level, the 3-way catalytic converter, the broadband lambda sensor and also the burning value exhaust gas heat exchanger are all integrated.
By means of this integrated solution not only the dimensions of the smartblock could be reduced, but also the intended service-friendliness could be significantly enhanced. This way the catalytic converter can be quickly and easily exchanged without cutting the exhaust gas line.
The exhaust from the engine streams into the module at a temperature of more than 500°C. At this point the emissions are still charged with approx. 5,000 mg/m³ of the contaminants CO and NOx. A split second later the exhaust gas leaves the module at a temperature of only 50°C and with a contaminant level of only 50 mg/m³. Thus exhaust gases have been cooled down by the module by more than 90%, and the contaminant level is reduced by more than 99%. Remarkable!
Extensive Safety and Security Mechanisms
If a device is accessible through the internet and therefore has an IP address, there is also the risk that it is susceptible to external attacks. Reports in the media have shown that not only computers, but also industrial facilities can be targeted by hackers. This applies also to our units accessible through the internet.
This is why we have protected our BR18 control system with a multitude of security functions against unauthorized access.
This includes safe passwords, protection against brute force attacks (repeated login attempts), various access levels with specific rights and different passwords, and much more. This way we provide a maximum access protection for the information about our smartblock and its control system, and we protect these effectively against misuse.
Energy Efficient with Cost Savings
smartblocks reliably supplies your house, buildings or your hotel with heat and electrical energy. With unmatched efficiency and extremely low costs.
As smartblock generates its energy regardless of the season and around the clock. Whether rain, hail or shine, the low-cost electrical energy is available for your smart electric drive at any time.
With 25 years of experience in the development and manufacture of combined heat and power plants speak for themselves, You can find our smartblocks in countless installations in residential, industrial and commercial applications all over the world.
