The SAACKE RSE-P II is a high-precision compact controller specifically engineered for industrial combustion technology. Serving as both a load controller and a burner management system (BMS), it provides robust monitoring and control for complex boiler plants, thermal oxidizers, and process heaters. The RSE-P II is designed to meet strict safety standards, ensuring optimal air-to-fuel ratios and fail-safe operation in demanding maritime and land-based environments.
Product Overview
The RSE-P II integrates multiple control functions into a single unit, including setpoint management, flame supervision, and sequence control. It is characterized by its versatile analog and digital I/O capabilities, allowing it to interface with various sensors (like Pt100 and thermocouples) and actuators. Its modular architecture supports the optimization of combustion processes, significantly enhancing energy efficiency while maintaining high safety integrity.

Application Fields
- Marine Boilers: Main safety and load control on LNG carriers and container ships.
- Refinery Heaters: Managing crude oil heater treater safety shutdowns (ESD).
- Power Generation: Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) duct burner management.
- Waste Incineration: Rotary kiln burner sequencing and slag prevention.
- Chemical Processing: Ethylene cracker furnace flame supervision and control.
Technical Description
Technically, the RSE-P II utilizes a dual-processor architecture to execute parallel logic for critical safety functions. It features programmable structural switches that allow technicians to configure the type of signal at each inlet and the evaluation of measurement trouble. The unit includes a PID control algorithm with adjustable proportional gain (Kp), integral action time (Tn), and derivative gain (Tv). This allows the controller to adapt to the specific thermal inertia of different boiler types, providing stable pressure or temperature regulation even during rapid load changes.
Usage Instructions
- Mounting: Install the RSE-P II on a standard 35mm DIN rail or via direct mounting in a vibration-dampened control cabinet.
- Wiring: Ensure the power supply matches the 85-264 VAC range. Use shielded cables for analog inputs (AI0/AI1) to prevent signal noise from high-voltage burner ignition circuits.
- DIP Switch Setting: Configure the internal structural switches (S1-1, S1-2) to match your input type (e.g., set to ON for 4-20mA or OFF for Pt100).
- Commissioning: Access the configuration menu to set internal setpoints (W1, W2) and basic parameters. It is recommended to log final adjustment values after commissioning.
- Monitoring: Use the front-panel display to monitor real-time flame signal strength and output percentages during the purge and ignition sequences.
