Replacement Synchronous Motor for motorised valves ACL Honeywell Landis Gye Satchwell Sopec Tower DIY Replacement 2-Port 3-Port Valve Failure

Product Information

Seized motorised valve spindle in an old Satchwell Sunvic 2-port motorised valve. The water leakage has caused white oxides to form round the brass spindle, making it too stiff to turn Both of these genuine SYNCHRON motors work in Honeywell motorised valves. The motors SYNCHRON make specifically for Honeywell come with two blue wires If, for example, the heating valve is failing in this way, you will get heat round the radiators while the cylinder hot water is being heated too. When the cylinder is up to temperature, the hot water motorised valve closes and no longer tells the boiler to fire, so the heating now stops too.

Starting with the controls set for Heating Only, hold the lever tight against the right side of the slot. Now get someone to select Hot Water too, so you get Heating and Hot Water together. You may need to turn the cylinder stat up to make it call. As soon as Hot Water is also called, you will hearthe valve start to unwind under the force of the spring, then you will feel the lever “bump” your finger. If the powerhead was removed from the valve to make it easier to change the motor, it must now be re-attached to the valve. The power head cover can then be refitted and secured with the single screw. Make sure it sits squarely on the powerhead, with no wires pushing out from the sides. In medium sized or larger properties, using a combi boiler, there may be an additional zone valve external to the boiler which allows the heating to be split into two zones. The V4073A 3-port valve never closes water flow through the valve completely. There is always an open pathway from port AB to port A or from port AB to port B or from port AB to both ports A and B at the same time. A Switchmaster Midi 3-port valve body with a seized spindle. This motorised valve was also rusting through round the screw in the picture Honeywell powerhead (actuator) jams?The rubber ball sits against the circular port (right side in photo), closing it off. We’re told that the ball touches one edge of the circular port first, causing the ball to rotate slightly on its spindle. This regular slight rotation evens out distortions in the ball. A little piece of elegant design work by Honeywell! A programmer and room thermostat (stat) are used to control heating times and room air temperatures. The programmer and room stat may be combined into a single programmable room stat.

The Honeywell V4043H1106 28mm 2-port zone valve has 6 wires. Five of these wires are the same as 22mm 2-port valve.Green/yellow is Earth, blue is Neutral, brown is Live (or Line) to the motor, grey and orange are connected to the end switch and form part of a separate circuit. Only when both white and grey wires are energised (and the valve goes to the Heating Only position) can the orange wire get its 230V supply via the valve itself. (Remember, the orange wire can also get 230V from the cylinder stat if it is calling and a hot water program is on.)Typically, a small or medium sized property will have either one 3-port valve (which splits the central heating water flow between cylinder and radiators) or two 2-port valves (one governing flow to the cylinder and one governing flow to the radiators). When a V4073A mid-position valve is set up in a Y-Plan configuration and Hot Water is called for, power to the boiler is provided directly from the cylinder thermostat. The valve is not energised. Where two 2-port motorised valves are fitted (one for the heating circuit and one for the hot water cylinder circuit) the fault may be disguised. Even though one valve only partly opens itself and is unable to fire the boiler, the valve on the other circuit can open fully and fire the boiler. The pump then pushes heated boiler water through both the open valve and the partially open valve. The commonest fault with Honeywell motorised valves is motor failure. Honeywell valve motor fault?
