  • Integrated control system using a microprocessor
    Patent number: 4421268
    Abstract: An integrated control system for a temperature conditioning apparatus which contains a microprocessor which is connected to the various components of a control system of the temperature conditioning apparatus such as the space thermostat, the fuel valve, the fuel igniter and ignition proving apparatus, the stack temperature sensor, the ambient or vestibule temperature sensor, the plenum temperature sensor, the induced draft blower motor, the refrigeration compressor, and the air circulating fan or blower. With the microprocessor, which has the capability of fast and many types of operations, the interaction of parameters of the temperature conditioning apparatus and operation of the various components of the system can be controlled in an improved manner to add to the overall efficiency of such a temperature conditioning apparatus.
    Type: Grant
