Abstract

PURPOSE:To stabilize the effluent hot water temperature by providing a first reference flow rate and a second reference flow rate to put a shut-off solenoid valve into open or close state, and setting the second reference flow rate lower than the first one. CONSTITUTION:When the flow rate detected by a flow rate sensor 4 is higher than a first reference flow rate, a water solenoid valve 6 is opened to supply water into a water supply pipe 2, and the influent water is divided and supplied to water pipes 10 and 20. Then, as a flow switch 22 is closed and control circuits 50 and 60 are put into action, a combustion apparatus 40 start burning to heat up the influent water through heat exchangers 11 and 21, and the water from the heat exchangers joins into a hot water supply pipe 2a and flows out. When the water flow rate detected is less than the first reference flow rate and higher than the second reference flow rate that is lower than the first one, the water solenoid valve 6 is not closed. Therefore, as the combustion apparatuses 30 and 40 are operated in a steady state, the temperature of effluent hot water from the hot water supply pipe 2a can be stabilized.

In addition, when the set temperature T5llT by the controller 80 is high and is 55° C. or higher, the relay control circuit 70 controls the water amount switching valve 16.2 only when the water solenoid valve 6 is in the open state.
6 is closed to reduce the amount of water passing through each heat exchanger 11.21 and ensure that the water is heated. In this case, if the water amount switching valve 16 closes before the water electromagnetic valve 6 opens, the water amount becomes the reference water amount ■. Water ML detected because it stops increasing
is the standard water amount I. In order to achieve this, the water amount switching valve 16 is turned off after the water solenoid valve 6 is opened.

b) Water amount detected by water amount sensor 4 1. When the water is equal to or higher than the reference water i"=-o, the water solenoid valve 6 is opened, and the water flowing into the water supply pipe 2 is divided and supplied to the water pipe 10 and the water pipe 20. Then, the water flow switch 22 is also closed, Since both the control circuit 50 and the control circuit 60 operate to start combustion control, the combustor 40 also starts combustion, and the inflow water is heated by the heat exchanger 11 and the heat exchanger 21, respectively.
The water joins together and flows out from the hot water pipe 2a.

As described above, in the present invention, in controlling the water electromagnetic valve 6 for dividing supplied water, the control is different when changing from an open state to a closed state and when changing from a closed state to an open state. Since the reference water volume is different, even if there is a slight change in the detected water volume, the water solenoid valve that is previously opened will remain open. Therefore, the temperature of the hot water flowing out can be stabilized.
