NexSys™ Boiler and Cooling Tower Water Treatment Controller Overview

  • Dual System Control: The NexSys™ controller can control up to 2 cooling towers or up to 4 boilers simultaneously – lowering your capital cost for the entire site.
  • Building Management System connectivity.
  • Comprehensive Water Treatment Control: You determine the inputs you need for your system, including: Conductivity, pH, ORP, Water Meters, Flow Switches, Trace Chemistry, and any 4-20 mA input to ensure precise water management for both boiler and cooling tower systems.
  • Six output relays are standard, and every NexSys™ may be expanded to ten output relays total.
  • Sensor inputs connect to Smart Nodes – small circuit boards in a compact design. 
  • The nodes become an internal NexSys™ network that expands as you need it.
  • The nodes can be located as much as 400 meters / 1300 feet from the NexSys™ controller- giving you flexibility and leveraging the power of this datalog water treatment controller.

NexSys™ Boiler and Cooling Tower Controller Updates

  • In late 2020, Lakewood updated the graphical interface for the NexSys™ systems, giving a more modern appearance, and clarity to the user experience.
  • We have also made some simplifications in the BACnet/IP interface, eliminating the need for external components for Building Management System integration.

Customer Testimonial:

“Morning Joel, Ed,

I wanted to thank you both for assisting Sean Stanwood in the installation and programming of the NexSys modem yesterday. 

With a quick phone call, Sean was able to connect the modem to the NexSys controller and demonstrate to our customer how the system can be monitored and controlled remotely. 

Our customer was thrilled by the ease of which we did the install and demonstration of the modem’s abilities. Very impressed!!

We also were confronted with an error code on the water meter recorder and totalizer. We showed them how to use the reset button in the back of the panel and the system corrected itself and started working perfectly, counting feed water flow and total gallons passing the paddle wheel meter. 

Again, we thank you for your support of our field representative, as it helps our professional image.”
