Electrolux washing machine icons instructions for use. Washing modes in the Electrolux washing machine

Domestic boilers are often installed in private homes and country houses for heating. Device Russian production KChM-5 works on solid fuel. This universal unit with an unusual design is produced at the Kirov plant. The main material used in its manufacture is very durable and reliable cast iron. Specifications KChM-5 differs from other units.

Durable and reliable boiler, as it is made of durable cast iron

Main characteristics

The main feature of the boiler is that the heat exchanger in it consists of separate sections, whereas in other devices it is solid. The more sections, the higher the power of the unit. Another interesting detail in the technical characteristics of the KChM-5 boiler is its versatility. The device runs on solid fuel, but if necessary, it can be converted for heating with gas, fuel oil, waste oil or diesel.

Using a pellet burner and a hopper with an auger, you can create an automatic long-burning pellet unit. You can easily install such a boiler in a room where main gas has not yet been installed. Until then, the device will operate on other types of fuel.

In this video you will learn more about the KChM-5 boiler:

The device consists of sections, the lower of which is connected to the return line heating system, and at the top there is a pipe for connecting a straight line. On the front wall there is a loading, blowing and screwing door. The first has openings for secondary air flow. Using the ash pan door you can adjust the flame intensity. This is done manually using a draft regulator or a special screw.

The chimney pipe is attached to the back, and a damper is attached to it. It controls the release of smoke and combustion products. The body of the KChM-5k boiler is covered with a special material that increases operating efficiency and reduces heat loss. The unit is also equipped with a thermometer, which is necessary to prevent the liquid from boiling. Technical characteristics of the KChM boiler:

  • power - from 21 to 80 kW;
  • the area that the device can heat is 210-800 square meters;
  • coefficient useful action exceeds 78%;
  • fuel consumption - from 3.3 to 12 kg/hour.

All indicators depend on the number of sections; there can be from three to nine.

Advantages and disadvantages

Before purchasing a unit, you need to find out about its advantages and disadvantages. In addition to the fact that the boiler is low in cost, it has a number of other advantages. Among them are:

  • service life - 25 years;
  • additional equipment allows you to quickly convert the boiler from one fuel to another;
  • thanks to its simple design, the unit is easy to clean, repair and replace damaged parts;
  • a sectional heat exchanger makes it possible to create a large range of capacities;
  • The features of the device and thermal insulation increase the efficiency of the equipment even when using wet firewood (humidity should not exceed 20%).

The optimal fuel for the device is anthracite coal, the diameter of which ranges from 4-6 cm. Operating efficiency decreases when using wet flammable materials.

The disadvantage is that the KChM-5 has a significant gas and coal consumption, while one load of fuel allows the boiler to operate for a short time. If we compare this model and pyrolysis devices, the latter have a number of advantages. Lack of efficiency entails the need to periodically clean the internal surface of the device. You also need to properly organize the chimney, otherwise combustion products will enter the room.

Connection conditions

There are certain requirements for installing and connecting the boiler. Compliance with them will extend its service life and make operation comfortable and safe. The unit must be placed in the room so that the distance from its rear to the wall reaches 25 cm, and from the side walls - 10 centimeters. Periodically during repairs you will need to approach the rear surface, so leave 400 mm between one side and the wall. You need to leave a space of 1 m² in front of the boiler, which will allow you to easily add new fuel and clean the ash pan.

Cast iron solid fuel boiler KChM-5 “Combi” designed to work with gaseous, liquid and solid fuel. Boiler KChM-5 “Combi” has a Permit Federal service on environmental, technological and nuclear supervision. Cast iron water heating boilers of the KChM-5 type have a number of advantages. First of all, they differ more long term cast iron heat exchanger service. The design of the KChM-5 “Combi” boiler has been tested for years; each stage of production of the boiler components is strictly controlled. Boilers of this series are unpretentious in terms of fuel and coolants, and are also quite easy to maintain. KChM-5 "Combi" boilers have low requirements regarding smoke draft. If there is a need to switch from one type of fuel to another, the boiler can be converted quite easily. It has a higher operating pressure compared to similar boiler models of other brands.

The KChM-5 "Combi" cast iron heating boiler is assembled from the front, rear and middle sections. The power of the boiler will depend on the number of middle sections. The screeding, ash pan and loading doors are located next to the cover for cleaning the convective surfaces of the chimney on the front section of the KChM-5 “Combi” boiler. In order to convert the boiler to a different fuel, it is necessary to use a set of equipment from the same manufacturer. The flanges with which the boiler is connected to the heating system, as well as the chimney pipe, are located on the rear section.

Advantages of cast iron boilers KChM-5

  • Long service life of the cast iron heat exchanger.
  • Proven design and well-developed production technology on molding lines with constant quality control during the production process.
  • Ease of maintenance, unpretentiousness to fuel and coolant
  • Low smoke draft requirements
  • The KChM-5 boiler can be easily converted to operate on different types fuel
  • Higher operating coolant pressure compared to similar boilers of other brands
