Geysers Vector: review, reviews, faults

Today we will look at the repair of the Vektor (Vector) geyser. Below I will present the disassembly procedure with photos, step by step, as I do it.

1. Remove the adjustment knobs from the column. There are three of them here. One knob for adjusting the water flow, a second knob for adjusting the gas supply to the burner, a third knob for turning on the mode of full or partial gas supply to the burner (WINTER/SUMMER mode). We unscrew the screws securing the front panel of the speaker from the bottom and top, disconnect the two connectors of the wires going to the display and remove the front cover.

2. Unscrew the bolts securing the strip with ignition electrodes and ionization electrode from the column burner.

3. Find the bolts that secure the water-gas unit to the column body (4 pcs.) and unscrew them. The bolts on the gas unit side can be unscrewed without any problems. On the water block side, the Chinese column is designed in such a way that the bolts are unscrewed from the wall. If you do this on a workbench, then no problem. If the speaker is hanging on the wall, then you will not be able to do this. Either you will have to remove it, or try to unscrew the two bolts that secure the bracket to the water block, which is not always possible, because Usually the water block is wet from condensation and the bolts rust.

4. Unscrew the right heat exchanger tube from the water block (2 bolts on the coupling flange). We unscrew the two screws on the brackets that secure the burner, disconnect the ground wire screwed to the gas block (yellow wire). We disconnect all connectors: microswitch connector, gas valve connector, wires going to the battery compartment.

5. Remove the entire water-gas block from the column along with the burner. It’s also a good idea to unscrew the plug to drain the water from the water block. It is long and will interfere with both disassembly and assembly of the Vektor (Vector) geyser.

6. Now our task is to remove the heat exchanger from the column body. To do this, unscrew the three screws that secure the heat exchanger from below to the rear panel of the column housing, disconnect the draft sensor from the column cap and the temperature sensor from the heat exchanger, unscrew the 2 screws that secure the column cap to the housing (at the very top). All we have to do is disconnect the hot water pipe of the heat exchanger from the body, which is attached from below with two self-tapping screws. The heat exchanger and cap can be removed from the housing. Next, unscrew the 4 screws connecting the column cap and the heat exchanger. The column itself is disassembled into units. Only the ignition unit remains in the housing.

7. Next, we will consider disassembling the water block of the gas water heater. We unscrew the 4 bolts on the body, disassemble the block and remove the membrane. Chinese gas water heaters usually have 2 types of water blocks. This column contains a “large” water block with two “ears” (in common parlance). Usually the column does not light up or heats up poorly precisely because of this membrane. I definitely recommend changing it if you disassemble the water block.

8. There is one more part of the water unit, which I definitely advise you to change, even if it is working properly at the moment. We are talking about the stuffing box assembly of the rod. It is unscrewed from the body of the water block and replaced entirely. No one replaces the rings separately (they are pressed in). This part is a consumable and is often the cause of column failure. Usually, if the stem seal leaks, water drips onto the microswitch, it fails, and the column does not turn on at all. Let's say you replaced only the membrane in the block and decided not to change the rod with the stuffing box assembly. What will happen next? Often events unfold like this: a new elastic membrane begins to work at full strength and push the rod much further than before the repair. Dirt and rust have already accumulated on that part of the rod, which quickly kills the already hardened rubber ring of the oil seal, as if it were being scraped with sandpaper. The oil seal begins to leak and you will have to climb to disassemble the water block of the gas water heater again. And this is not the worst possible scenario! The worst thing is that a rusty rod can seize. Then the column will simply continue to work when you turned off the water (it will not turn off). It's very scary! Although the column is equipped with an overheating sensor, as long as it works, anything can happen. God forbid that only the column will suffer and not be scalded by the steam.

Geyser Vector JSD 11-N

Grigory
An excellent speaker for a summer house, since this model simply does not need a chimney. Due to the low productivity of combustion products, so little is released that they can be released directly into the atmosphere. Just in case, we ventilate the room later. We are also pleased with the small size of the dispenser and the ability to connect bottled gas, which our neighbors in the dacha area were happy about - they don’t have gas in their house, but they live in the dacha all summer. Now they, too, are happy to have hot water and the opportunity to swim or wash dishes under warm water. If the water heater didn’t go out when the water pressure changes (at the dacha the pressure constantly fluctuates), then it would be doubly wonderful. But overall we are satisfied.

Advantages:

  • There is no need for a chimney, which is important for a small country house;
  • Large temperature adjustment range;
  • Possibility of operation from bottled gas, and parts for connecting the bottle do not need to be purchased separately - everything is included in the kit.

Flaws:

  • Sometimes it goes out, but this is due to pressure changes - nothing can be done about it;
  • There is no temperature indicator, you have to adjust the heating by touch.

3.5.2 The liquefied gas cylinder must be equipped with a reducer designed to stabilize the pressure at 300 mm water column. and gas flow rate of at least 20 l/min.

3.5.3 After connecting the liquefied gas cylinder, it is necessary to check the connections for leaks in accordance with clause 3.4.8.

3.6 Installation of a chimney to remove combustion products

3.6.1 The most important condition for safe operation of the device is the removal of all combustion products of gaseous fuel. Therefore, the rules described below for connecting the exhaust gas pipe to the chimney must be strictly followed.

The chimney must be sealed and resistant to combustion products. Resistance to combustion products means resistance to thermal loads and resistance to combustion products. The draft in the chimney should be in the range from 2 to 30 Pa.

The gas exhaust pipe must be made of heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, such as: stainless steel, galvanized steel, enameled steel, aluminum with a wall thickness of at least 0.5 mm.

You need to make sure that there is really good draft in the chimney (see picture on page 15).

Do not use ventilation ducts to remove combustion products. The exhaust pipe must be connected to the chimney as quickly as possible (the maximum permissible distance of the exhaust gas pipe from the chimney is 2 m). The exhaust pipe should have a slight slope (2°) upward towards the location

connections with the chimney.

The exhaust pipe must have an internal diameter of at least 110 mm.

For reliable removal of combustion products, the minimum length of the vertical section

the chimney must be at least 500 mm.

Rice. 5 Connecting the exhaust pipe to the device

4 USING THE MACHINE

The device is configured for a specific type of gas, indicated on the plate on the device.

4.1 Turning on the device

4.1.1 Before turning on the device, open the battery compartment and install the batteries, observing the polarity;

4.1.2 To turn on the device you must:

1) open the cold water shut-off valve installed in front of the entrance to the apparatus, while the hot water tap must be closed;

2) open the shut-off valve on the gas pipeline in front of the device;

3) open the hot water tap. During the flow of water, a spark discharge should occur between the ignition electrodes 12 and the burner 7 (see Fig. 1).

When first turned on, due to the presence of air in the gas pipeline as a result of installation of the apparatus, ignition of the burner may occur after 1-2 minutes.

Because the spark discharge lasts a short time after turning on the water; to re-form the spark discharge, you need to close the water and then open it. And repeat this until the air is completely released, until the burner ignites; If the burner does not ignite, turn knob 4 to the extreme right position, this will allow the burner to ignite at low water pressure in the system.

4.2 Adjusting the degree of water heating

4.2.1 Adjustment of the degree of water heating is carried out using one of the following methods:

— to obtain the maximum amount of warm water, you need to set knob 4 to the extreme right position, and turn knob 5 to achieve the required heating temperature;

— by turning knob 5 of the gas regulator (changing the gas supply to the main burner);

- changing the flow of water passing through the device using a hot water tap installed at the outlet of the device.

- using a mixer, adding cold water until the required temperature of the water flowing from the tap is obtained.

4.2.2 If the water in the water supply is soft, you can use any of the above methods to dilute hot water.

4.2.3 With hard water, it is not recommended to use a water mixer to dilute hot water, since overheating of water in the heat exchanger leads to faster scale formation in the heat exchanger pipes and their clogging. In this case, the amount of scale formed is proportional to the increase in the temperature of the water leaving the apparatus.

RECOMMENDATIONS. With hard water, to increase its service life, it is recommended to clean the heat exchanger (see paragraph 5.3.3) every six months.

4.2.4 To reduce the intensity of scale formation, it is necessary to set the gas regulator knob to a position that ensures water heating no higher than 60 0C. The formation of scale in the heat exchanger over time can lead to a decrease in the temperature of the heated water and a weakening of the hot water stream.

All other methods of regulating the temperature of hard water are acceptable.

4.2.5 Having set the required water temperature, you don’t have to use knobs 4 and 5, because turning the burner on and off is ensured by opening or closing the hot water tap.

4.3 Turning off the device for a long time

4.3.1 When you finish using the device (at night, for a long time away from home, etc.), it must be turned off, following the following sequence:

— close the hot water tap;

— close the gas shut-off valve at the entrance to the apparatus;

— close the cold water shut-off valve.

4.3.2 After finishing using the device with hard water, you must:

- open the hot water tap

— set handle 5 to the extreme right position;

— pass water through the apparatus until warm;

— close the gas shut-off valve at the entrance to the apparatus;

— close the cold water shut-off valve at the entrance to the device.

4.4 Frost protection

4.4.1 If, after turning off the device, the water in it may freeze, then it is necessary to drain the water from the device as follows:

— close the gas shut-off valve and the water shut-off valve in front of the device;

— open the hot water tap;

— unscrew the drain plug 22 (see Fig. 1);

- drain the water;

— screw in plug 22 until it stops and close the hot water tap.

5 MAINTENANCE

To ensure long-term, trouble-free operation of the device and maintain its performance characteristics, it is necessary to carry out regular inspection, care and maintenance.

To ensure fire safety, it is necessary to carefully monitor the cleanliness of the burners and avoid a smoky flame when burning gas, which leads to soot deposits on the heat exchanger. In this case, the gaps between the fins of the heat exchanger become overgrown with soot, as a result of which the flame is thrown out of the combustion chamber, which can lead to a fire.

Inspection and maintenance are carried out by the owner of the device.

Checking and cleaning the chimney, repairs and monitoring of the water supply system are carried out by the owner of the device or the house management.

Maintenance of the device is carried out by gas service specialists or other organizations licensed for this type of activity at least once a year.

Work related to maintenance is not a warranty obligation and is carried out at the expense of the consumer.

5.1 Inspection Every day before turning on the device:

- should not smell gas. If you find it, contact the gas service;

— check that there are no combustible objects near the device.

— after turning on the device, it is necessary to check the combustion pattern of the burner through viewing window 17: the flame should be blue and not have yellow smoky particles

From £99

tongues indicating clogging of the manifold and internal channels of the burner sections.

Remember!

Due to clogging of the internal channels of the burner sections, an insufficient amount of air is supplied, which is necessary for the normal operation of the apparatus, which leads to incomplete combustion of the gas, which, in turn, leads to the following phenomena:

- possibility of poisoning, because incomplete combustion produces carbon monoxide;

— deposition on the surface of the heat exchanger and on the side surfaces of the combustion chamber of soot, which is formed during incomplete combustion of gas. The presence of soot greatly impairs the operation of the device.

5.2 Care

5.2.1 The device should be kept clean, for which it is necessary to regularly remove dust from the top surface of the device, and also wipe the lining first with a damp and then a dry cloth. In case of significant contamination, first wipe the lining with a wet cloth moistened with a neutral detergent, and then with a dry cloth.

5.2.2 It is prohibited to use strong detergents containing abrasive particles, gasoline or other organic solvents to clean the surface of the cladding and plastic parts.

ATTENTION!

All maintenance operations on the device should be performed only after it has been completely switched off.

5.3 Maintenance

During maintenance the following work is performed:

— cleaning the burner;

— cleaning water and gas filters;

— cleaning the heat exchanger from scale in the internal cavity and from soot on the outer surface (if necessary);

— replacement of sealing connections in gas and water systems;

— checking the tightness of the gas and water systems of the device;

— checking the operation of sensors for draft and water overheating;

— lubrication of moving joints (if necessary).

1 Cleaning the burner To clean the burner, perform the following operations:

— turn off the device;

— turn off the gas supply valve, remove the lining, remove the burner;

— use a brush to remove dust from the outer surfaces of the burner and from the collector;

— wipe the collector and nozzles with a damp cloth;

— use a brush to remove dust from the internal channels of the burner sections;

- wash the burner with soapy water, especially its internal cavities using a brush. Rinse thoroughly with running water, dry and put back in place.

Keeping the burner constantly clean will eliminate soot contamination from the heat exchanger and increase its service life.

2 Cleaning water and gas filters

Remove the water and gas filters. Clean them using a jet of water and a brush. Dry the gas block filter. Reinstall the filters.

3 Cleaning the heat exchanger

If the heat exchanger is dirty, it is necessary to clean its outer surface when soot has formed on it, and the inner surface of the heat exchanger pipes when scale has formed in them. To remove contamination from the outside you need to:

- remove the heat exchanger and immerse it in a hot solution of soap or other synthetic detergent.

— keep it in the solution for 10-15 minutes and clean the upper and lower surfaces with a soft brush. Rinse with strong water jet.

- If necessary, repeat the entire process. To remove scale you need to:

— remove the heat exchanger and place it in a container;

— prepare a 10% solution of citric acid (100 g of powdered citric acid per 1 liter of warm water);

— pour the prepared solution into the heat exchanger pipeline. Leave the solution for 10-15 minutes, then drain and rinse the pipeline thoroughly with water;

- If necessary, repeat the entire process.

4 Replacing sealing joints

During maintenance, when dismantling and reassembling water and gas communications, it is necessary to install new seals.

5 Checking the tightness of the gas and water systems of the device

After the next maintenance, when gas and water communications were dismantled, it is necessary to check the device for leaks (see paragraphs 3.3.5 and 3.4.8).

6 Checking the performance of the draft sensor

To check the draft sensor, it is necessary to remove the gas exhaust pipe, turn on the device and, under normal operating conditions (with the gas tap fully open and nominal water flow), close the gas pipe of the device with a metal sheet. After 10...60 seconds the device should turn off.

If the device does not turn off, bend the sensor into the gas outlet device 11 and repeat the test.

After checking, install the gas exhaust pipe in place, ensuring the connection is tight.

7 Checking the functionality of the heat exchanger overheat sensor

To check the heat exchanger overheating sensor, it is necessary to turn on the device in the nominal operating mode (with the gas tap fully open and the nominal water flow), then set the minimum possible water flow at the maximum power of the device (control knob 5 should be in the extreme right position). When the maximum temperature indicated on the sensor is reached, the device should turn off.

8 Extraordinary cleaning of the device

Cleaning the device may be required more often than once a year if the device is used intensively in a room where the air contains a lot of dust. This can be determined visually by the changed color of the apparatus burner flame. If the flame turns yellow or smoky, this indicates that the burner is

has become clogged with dust particles from the air, and the device needs to be cleaned and maintained. Normally the flame should be blue. Extraordinary cleaning of the device must also be carried out if construction or repair work was carried out in the room where the device is installed and a lot of construction dust and debris got into the device.

Advantages of Vector water heaters

The technique has several advantages, which have made it very popular among Russian buyers.

Price

Not everyone can spend more than 10 thousand rubles on such a device, and it is quite difficult to do without it in a country house or in a private house. The Vector brand does not have models more expensive than 4 thousand rubles - despite this, the equipment is of quite high quality and versatile.

Design

The equipment looks stylish and discreet. The column will not attract attention, and sometimes will even highlight the interior. The manufacturer also took care of the compact dimensions of the equipment. In the event of a breakdown, the owner can always find the necessary spare parts, which will be inexpensive and will extend the life of the device.

Control

All models are equipped with a simple and convenient control system. It consists of two switches. The first regulates the gas supply, and the second is responsible for the amount of water entering the heat exchanger. There is also a technique with a third switch for the “Winter/Summer” function. The first program uses all burner sections. The “Summer” program, on the contrary, disables some sections - plus savings.

Each equipment manufacturer has the most successful models. If we talk about the Vektor brand, we can note several options:
