6.4. Install temperature sensors, manometers and pressure relay at VHG.

6.5. Install power block and remote control.

6.6. Make electric connections of the remote control and power block by means of connection cables through socket connectors.

6.7. Sitch on temperature and pressure sensors to the remote control through socket connectors. Connectors are on the back side of the remote control.

Note:

Temperature sensors of the room could be placed at the distance more than 50 meters from the remote control (in accordance with the requirements of the customer for the additional charge).

6.8. Make electric power switchings and connections of the plant to the groundede mat. Power supply cable is switched to the clamps of the power block.

6.9. Check the resistance of grounding and isolation resistance.

7. PREPARATION FOR SWITCHING ON

7.1. Fill in the heating system and VHG with heat transfer through the bucking out system (expansion tank) at fully opened faucets Bl, Â2.

7.2. Make sure that thereis no air in the heating system, check its impermeability and at necessity remove lickages and fill in the heating system.

7.3. Close the feeding faucet of direct heat transfer (faucet B2).

8. SWITCHING OF THE PLANT

8.1. Consecution of switching of the plant to operation is introduced in table 8.2.

Table 8.2

Operation Actions Indication

1. Supply of electric power.

2. Switching of remote control.

3. Installationof temperature mode.

4. Determination of acting (real) temperatures

5. Control of the rightness of rotation direction of electric engine.

Switch on the automate switcher.

Switch on the toggle switch "CIRCUIT" on the face panel of the remote control.

à) Push the button «Òâ» on the face panel of the remote control and by rotation of handle «Òâ» set the desired low temperature level in a room.

á) Push the button «Òî» and by rotation of handle «Òî» set the desired high temperature level in a room.

à) Push the button «Òò».

á) Push the button «Òï».

Shortly push the button «START», then «STOP». Visually make sure that the direction of rotation of electric engine of pump aggregate is right. At the necessity change the places any 2 phases at electric engine by switching off beforehand the feeding of remote control by automate switcher.

Note:

1. In the control block there is a possibility of automate start up of VHG at casual disconnections of electric power.

2. High temperatuure level of heat transfer (85-90 'Ñ) is set by specialists of the manufacturing enterprise and could be changed to higher or lower undere the requirements of the customer.

3. Automate control system VHG stipulates, under the requirements of the customer, transfer of the plant to the energy saving operation mode. Stand-by mode parameters (temperature range) are set by specialists of the manufacturing enterprise during the implementation of balancing and commissioning.

ATTENTION!

In case of non usage of VHG with the heating system at ambient temperature lower 0 'Ñ water applied as a heat transfer should be poured out through drain plug so that to avoid unfreezing of heating system and VHG.

7. Checking of top limit of heat transfer.

8. Checking of blockage of entrance pressure.

9. Switching of the automatic mode.

10. Regulation of speed of the channel of heat transfer.

No voltage in the circuit.

Safety device is broken.

Phase break of supply or mechanical malfunction of the pump or electric motor.

Air existance in the heating system.

Electric motor or pump malfunction. Ingress of solid objects (calx) in the heating system.

Incresing of the limited level of pressure at the entrance of the pump.

By rotation of the handle of pressure rekay to install the limit of relay actuation (see the passports of pump aggregate and pressure relay).

Push the button "START", push «Òò». On reaching the temperature limit of the heat transfer (85-90 'Ñ) the plant should be switched off.

In the process of the fulfilment of point 7. at the appearance of pressure at the entrance of the pump aggregate within the limits 1 -1,5 atm., rotate the handle of pressure relay to the side of lowering the value of operation threshold up to switching off of the pump aggregate. Set the handle to the specified value (see passport of the pump aggregate).

Push the button "FAULT". Push the button "ÀÂÒ". VHG will be switched on work at the condition of Òï < Òswitched on and will be switched off at Òï > Òswitched off. Then the operation of the plant is executed in the specified automatic mode. Òswitched on < Òï < Òswitched off.

Regulation of speed of the channel of heat transfer in the heating system is made with the help of valve on the line of direct heat transfer and in small limits with the help ofregulated valve of the plant. Choice of this parameter is made during the execution of balancing and commissioning.

Check and repair, change.

Remove the malfunction, push the button "Cancel". Make the repeated start.

Fill in system and remove air.

Check the operation of bearings in the electric motor, ventilator fastening. Check the operation wheel of pump. Wash the heating system.

Set on to fight the excess pressure by pushing the button "Cancel". make the repeated start.
