Installation of a combined Atlantic water heater instruction. Heating systems for country and country houses. Boilers, geysers, water heaters - Repair, service, operation. Recommendations for assembly and installation. What is the maximum heating temperature

Electric boilers are good because they are quite simple to use - just connect them to the power supply. In addition, they are safe and effective. The French manufacturer Atlantic confidently holds the lead among manufacturers of this kind of water heaters, offering consumers products of excellent quality and design.

High-quality Atlantic water heater and its advantages

The French company Atlantic, which produces boilers for heating water, is quite popular among consumers. This is accompanied by the fact that this company has been on the market for quite a long time and has proven itself from the best side.

Atlantis heating devices are manufactured in cylindrical and square shapes. These devices are most often used in apartments and private houses.

Benefits of using Atlantic boilers:

• Quite affordable price;
• Fast water heating;
• Corrosion resistance;
• Profitability;
• A wide selection of models for every taste;
• Stylish design that can fit almost any room interior.

However, annual cleaning will help to avoid the latter, for which you can call the master, and the problem will be solved.

Before you decide to buy a water heater of any company, you should understand what they are and understand the nuances of their work.

The Atlantic water tank can be:

1. horizontal- in this case, the heating element of the device is on the side, and the water inlet pipes are located very close, so the liquid is mixed in the structure itself, which can cause sharp temperature jumps at the outlet. But at the same time, such models are compact and can be placed under the ceiling, thereby not taking up much space.
2. vertical- costs less than horizontal. The heating element is located at the bottom of the unit, where the cold flow of liquid enters. As a result, the water heats up faster.

Atlantic heaters can have a dry heating element enclosed in a special flask or submersible.

In order not to make a mistake in choosing a unit, you should consider:

1. The need for a heated liquid, which directly depends on the number of its consumers. For example, the average amount of water for bathing one person in a shower is about 30-50 liters, and it takes about 20 liters to wash dishes and hands.
2. The power of the device and its compliance with the permissible load of the network. In order for the water to heat up as quickly as possible, models with a power of 2-2.5 kW are often taken. But if you have old wiring in your house, you should not accelerate much. It is better to take a unit of 1.2-1.5 kW, however, the heating time will increase.
3. The location of the device. If there is not enough free space in the room where the unit is planned to be installed, it is better to choose a horizontal model.
4. Water quality. If it is too hard, then the tank will often have to be cleaned due to scale appearing on its walls, which reduces the life of the device.

When choosing a water heater, special attention should be paid to the volume of the tank. A 50-liter tank is enough for one person or a couple who are at home mostly in the evening. Tanks of 80 liters are more voluminous and capacious. They are convenient to purchase for a family of 2-3 people, often at home.

The 100 liter boiler can be connected to various liquid supply points, while allowing them to be used simultaneously. This volume is enough for 3-4 people. The instructions will help you figure out how to connect the device.

It is not advisable to purchase equipment in inappropriate places or at points where there are no GOST conformity certificates.

Popular Atlantic water heater: model range

If you decide to purchase an Atlantic boiler, you should study the popular models of these water heaters to determine what you need.

Today there are three common lines of these boilers:

1. classic– very affordable water heaters. Their design consists of a copper heating element and a magnesium solution in the tank, which prevents corrosion from forming. But, nevertheless, cleaning is still necessary.
2. Advanced– this series is characterized by a ceramic heating element with an immersion heating element. These models are in good demand among consumers and receive, as a rule, only positive feedback.
3. Premium– as the name implies, the heaters of this line are available at a higher price. This is due to the presence of a titanium anode, a ceramic heating element and a special anti-corrosion coating in the system.

Like any other equipment, Atlantic boilers can fail. In this case, it is better not to try to do the repairs yourself, but to call a specialist who can competently and quickly fix your equipment.

Boiler Atlantic 80 liters: what is good about dry heating elements

Atlantic water heaters can be both submersible and dry heating elements. Moreover, the latter are considered more popular models. Due to what is this happening?

Advantages of dry heating:

• Longer service life - this happens due to the fact that it is enclosed in a special flask and does not come into contact with the liquid, which means it is not affected by it;
• Lack of scale on the element;
• There is no need to carry out regular cleaning of the device or use any means to improve the functioning of the unit;
• The cost of a dry heating element is cheaper than a "wet" heating element.

By the way, if a dry-type heating element breaks down, it will be quite easy to get to it. And you don’t have to spend a lot of time searching for a replacement or repair part.

And yet, despite the undeniable advantages, a water heater with a dry heating element has one drawback - the water in such a boiler heats up quite slowly, since the heating element is located in a separate container, and not in the water.

Features boiler Atlantic (video)

If the quality of the device is in the first place for you, then you should pay attention to Atlantis boilers. They are reliable, durable, comfortable and easy to use. Thanks to a wide range of manufactured models, you can choose exactly the device that you need.

Can Atlantic water heaters be used in manufacturing, catering and service industries?

Subject to the timely implementation of maintenance activities, you can buy Atlantic boilers and use them for domestic, household, industrial and other needs.

Why are storage water heaters of the Atlantic brand positioned as French? After all, the manufacturer is Ukratlantik (Odessa)?

The Odessa plant "Ukratlantik" is a part of the Atlantic Group concern, the head office of which is located in France.

What guarantee does the Ukratlantik plant provide for Atlantic water heaters of its production?

Water heater with steatite heating element ("dry") - 7 years warranty
Water heater with a copper heating element ("wet") - from 3 to 5 years

The warranty only applies to Atlantic water heaters that have been installed, connected and operated in accordance with the requirements and recommendations of the manufacturer.

What conditions must be met to be eligible for a warranty repair or replacement of the water heater?

The main condition is a qualified installation of a storage water heater. This means that the connection to the water and power supply systems of the water heater, as well as its commissioning, must be entrusted to professionals. It is also necessary to systematically service the boilers.

Other warranty requirements are usually specified in the warranty card and the instruction manual.

How long will an Atlantic water heater last?

On average, Atlantic boilers, the price of which is fully justified by the impeccable quality of the equipment, last at least 7 years. At the same time, it is necessary to understand that the service life of the water heater directly depends on the quality of the water and the intensity of its operation. Also, regular service plays a huge role in extending the life of your boiler.

Who is responsible for installing the water heater? Do I need to contact an authorized service center when putting the boiler into operation?

Subject to compliance with all the norms and requirements specified in the connection manual, the installation of the storage water heater and its commissioning can be carried out by any specialist with sufficient qualifications. When putting the boiler into operation, no activities requiring the participation of specialized services are provided.

What is the difference between boilers with "wet" and "dry" heating elements?

"Dry" heating elements are placed in special enameled flasks, so they do not come into contact with water. In this case, there is no galvanic interaction between the walls of the steel tank and the heating element (as in models with "wet" copper heating elements), so the likelihood of corrosion is practically reduced to zero.

We also note that lime and other deposits may form on “wet” heating elements over time, which is caused by elements and inclusions in running water. This reduces the heat transfer of the heating element and may even lead to its failure.

What models of Atlantic storage water heaters manufactured at the Ukratlantik plant are equipped with “dry” steatite heating elements?

These are models marked VMS3C, VMN3CM(E), VMS4CM, VMN4C(E), VMD400-1-MC.

What is the device and principle of operation of a storage water heater?

Conventionally, all Atlantic water heaters, the installation of which is best entrusted to our specialists, can be divided into two types:

"Dry" - steatite heating elements in flasks
"Wet" - copper heating elements without flasks

Water heater with "wet" heating element

All storage water heaters consist of two tanks: an internal working one - a steel tank of at least 1.5 mm thick, and an external tank. Between the tanks there is polyurethane foam thermal insulation. In the tank body there is a short pipe with a divider that supplies cold water, as well as a long pipe that serves to take hot water.

Water heater with "dry" heating element

The electrical part of the unit is located on the flange and includes:

a heating element
thermostat
magnesium anode and signal lamp

There is also a temperature gauge to control water heating. All Atlantic storage water heaters must be supplied with a safety valve for a short pipe, which is installed during installation.

How are Atlantic dry soapstone heaters different from steel tubular heaters used by other manufacturers in their dry boiler models?

Steatite is an ideal natural material for electrical equipment. It has very high physical characteristics, mechanical strength and stability. Steatite withstands temperatures above +1000°C, does not burn and has excellent thermal conductivity.

Compared to steel heaters, steatite elements have a large heat transfer area, which allows them to heat water faster. Steatite heating elements heat up almost instantly and cool down for a long time, which favorably affects the energy efficiency of the water heater.

Tell us about the O'PRO system - additional protection against corrosion?

To increase the effective life of magnesium anodes in Atlantic water heaters with copper heating elements, the O'PRO anti-corrosion protection system was developed.

The O'PRO system is a 580 Ohm resistance installed between the magnesium anode and the heating element, which, by reducing the galvanic current between the water heater tank, the copper heating element and the magnesium anode, serves as an additional anti-corrosion protection.

How does a storage water heater work?

Atlantic boilers, which we install as quickly and professionally as possible, are connected to the mains after the tank is completely filled with water.

Water is heated up to the temperature set on the thermostat.
After heating the entire volume of water to a predetermined temperature, the thermostat switches off the voltage supply to the heating element.
If a hot water tap is opened at a water distribution point, cold water from the water supply enters the tank instead of used hot water. In this case, hot water is taken from the upper part of the tank, and cold water enters its lower part.
Cold water lowers the overall temperature in the tank. The thermostat, reacting to a decrease in temperature, again begins to supply power to the heating element until the water in the tank warms up again to the desired temperature.

How is the water temperature regulated?

In Atlantic boilers with copper “wet” heaters, the temperature is set using a thermostat: the knob is turned counterclockwise to the desired temperature value. Atlantic storage water heaters with "dry" steatite heaters have a clockwise thermostat knob.

How much hot water comes out of the boiler at the water intake?

At the point where hot water is taken from the tank, the volume of water that is heated to the limiting temperature is about 75% of the total volume of water in the tank. The remaining 25% is water from the intermediate layer, in which the already heated water is mixed with the incoming cold water. The volume of outgoing hot water depends on its temperature and intensity of water intake.

Why do water heaters take longer to heat water in winter?

This is a feature of all water heaters, and it is due to the fact that during cold periods the temperature of the incoming water naturally decreases.

What is the maximum water temperature that the Atlantic electric water heater can provide?

Water is heated to an average of 60-70°C.

Why don't temperature gauges on Atlantic boilers have a temperature scale?

These indicators are intended to display the status of the water heating / cooling process, and are not high-precision measuring devices.

Do I need to turn off the storage water heater after each water heating?

The Atlantic boiler is equipped with a thermostat, which, after reaching the set temperature, automatically removes voltage from the contacts, thereby turning off the water heater. Therefore, you do not need to do it yourself. Also, the thermostat automatically turns on the boiler after the temperature of the water in the tank drops.

How much electricity does a storage water heater use?

Electricity consumption depends on the intensity of water intake and the temperature of the incoming cold water.

Why does a boiler need a safety valve, and why does water periodically drip from it?

The safety valve prevents water from flowing out of the tank in the event of a lack of water supply in the water supply. Also, this valve serves to relieve pressure, which is excessively formed in the tank when heated, and hence to increase the volume of water. Upon reaching pressure indicators of 8 atm. a small amount of water is discharged from a special hole in the valve, thereby lowering the pressure in the tank.

When installing Atlantic water heaters, it is imperative to install a safety valve. The instruction manual contains a picture of the valve that comes with your water heater. To drain the discharged water, a flexible tube is used (a medical dropper, for example).

How much water is usually drained from the safety valve?

The amount of water depends on the pressure in the "cold" riser. The higher it is, the less time it takes for the pressure in the tank to reach the point at which water must be discharged.

In addition, there is also a dependence on the intensity of operation of the boiler. The more often Atlantic boilers, the sale and maintenance of which is a priority area of ​​our company, work for heating, the more often the pressure rises, which means more water is discharged.

What is the purpose of the magnesium anode, and does it need to be replaced periodically?

The magnesium anode is needed in order to protect the storage water heater from corrosion, as well as to prevent the formation of scale in the case of using a copper "wet" heating element.

In the electrochemical reaction of the interaction of several metals that are in an aqueous solution, the metal with the lowest potential of the electrodes undergoes corrosion. In the case of a boiler, the highest potential is in copper, from which the heating element is made. Next comes steel (water heater tank). The lowest potential is at the magnesium anode. It is he who undergoes corrosion, eventually completely collapsing, and therefore requires periodic replacement.

How often should the magnesium anode be changed?

For Atlantic N4, N4E, S3S, D400-1-M, PC boiler models, the anode replacement frequency is 12 months for domestic use, and 6 months for boiler operation in production and in catering places.

Electric water heaters Atlantic S3C, S4 CM, N3CM(E), N4C(E), D400-1-MC need to replace the magnesium anode every 24 months for domestic use, and 12 months for industrial use.

Is the magnesium anode included in the warranty?

Since this item is a consumable item, it is not covered by the warranty.

What to do in case of boiler breakdown?

Warranty and post-warranty repairs are carried out by specialists of the Atlantic service center nearest to you. The call center dispatcher, having accepted the request, transfers it to an authorized service center, and also controls its further execution.

Before the arrival of the service center specialists, it is impossible to dismantle the Atlantic boiler, since in this case the warranty obligations are terminated.

Who should service Atlantic boilers?

Service activities must be carried out by authorized service centers. For service, warranty and post-warranty service, please call the hotline 0 800 500 885.

Stylish slim body, high power protected heating element, advanced electronic control system - all this has affected the cost of the Atlantic water heater. Its price in stores is 18-20 thousand rubles.

Atlantic water heaters - Tips for operation, repair and troubleshooting

Tell me, does the Atlantic Vertigo Steatite 50 model have an overpressure relief valve? And is there a heating indication, a light that lights up when the water heating process begins, and goes out after the heating element is turned off. I just heard about water heaters exploding, and you need to watch this on / off indicator. heating element (TENA). And yet, if this heater is used only in summer, and occasionally in winter (for example, on New Year's holidays) and after draining all the water with the device disassembled, is there still a high probability of a breakdown?

Safety valve included. There is an indicator light that will show you if the machine is heating up or not. For the winter, you will have to disassemble and drain the water, otherwise it will not drain completely.

Atlantic Steatite Slim VM 80 l. and Elite 80 l. differ among other things in power and the presence of a magnesium anode in Slim. As far as I understand, with a dry heating element, the absence of a magnesium anode is not critical. But the power for a country house is better to be smaller, about 1500, so as not to bounce?

The presence of the anode is mandatory, the tank is steel and enamelled. The manufacturer requires checking the condition of the anode every 1.5-2 years. The question is whether it will survive or not. You need to look at how much power is allocated to the house and count the entire connected load.

I want to buy an electric storage water heater Atlantic 100 liters S4CM. What can you say about it?

Dry heating element, 7-year warranty for the tank, 2-year warranty for the electrics. Ideal for hard water.

On the storage water heater Atlantic 80 liters of heating element, as I understand it, 2 kW? This is good. And what do they write about additional protection? Judging by the advertisement, some potential is brought to the anode. Is it electrochemical protection? Tell me one more thing - how safe is it to raise the temperature to the maximum?

The factory setting on most thermostats is set to 70-75 degrees. Over time, it changes in a big way. There is an opinion that heating at the maximum temperature is bad. I believe that you need to heat the way you want. For that, she and the technique to exploit it. In addition, the higher the water heating temperature, the less bacteria are bred inside the water heater.

I have an Atlantic Steatite Cube VM 100 S4CM storage boiler, a steatite (dry) heating element. Dual mode 1.2kw and 2.4kw. It has 2 thermostats: protective and regulating the heating temperature. Worked for 2 years in 2.4 kW mode at maximum heating. Breakdown: at first, the protective thermostat began to knock out. Then the attachment point of the neutral wire melted in it. Replaced the thermostat with a new one. Now, in the 2.4 kW mode, the mounting wires are very hot inside, both are zero and phase. In the 1.2 kW mode, they do not heat up. Copper wires 4 squares go from the 16A machine to the boiler. These wires don't get hot. What could be the reason for overheating of the wires inside the unit, given that the contacts are all connected tightly, not loose?

We, unfortunately, do not have the opportunity to advise on such highly technical issues remotely, since it is necessary to check everything on the spot, it is recommended to call the master.

I have an Atlantic electric water heater of 50 liters, it has worked perfectly since 2007, but one evening I noticed that water was dripping from it. Advise how this can be fixed (if possible), or call specialists?

If the gasket is leaking, replace it.

Boiler Atlantic Round Standard 50. The problem is that it heats the water to strong boiling water and for some reason does not turn off automatically for about 4 hours. The temperature sensor on the case indicates more than average, although it is set to a minimum. Is this the norm? Or broken thermostat?

No, this is not the norm, most likely the problem is in the thermostat, but other malfunctions are possible, for example, the temperature sensor could fail. An examination is necessary for an accurate diagnosis.

Is it possible to connect an electric boiler and an Atlantic 80 liter boiler in one bundle? Theoretically, I myself understand that I can’t do this when I looked at the connection diagram. Why do I want it? So that all the electrics are connected in one place, and the boiler controls the process of heating itself and the water heater. For example, you need to set the heating time for the boiler, and at this time the boiler turns off the heating and heats the EWH at full power.

This is an electric water heater. It can be "connected" to the boiler only by wires. In a sense, both he and the boiler have a certain electrical power. Boiler you are planning 6 kW, EWH - 2.4 kW. Do you have these allocated 10 kW (at least turn on the kettle) of electric power? There is an option to heat hot water in an indirect heating boiler using an electric boiler. Double benefit - and the allocated power is needed less and the water heats up much faster.

If water flows from under the inner blue plastic, which includes a cold water pipe, what should be done in this case? Boiler Atlantic series Opro VM 100.

The exact location of the leak must be pinpointed, pipes and connections can be replaced, repairing a tank leak is generally not cost effective and short lived. If the leak is not large, condensation is possible.

At the dacha (one small house) there is a pumping station. Thresholds of its maintenance of water from 2 to 3 atmospheres (on - off). I installed an Atlantic Ego 50 boiler. It had been with my brother for a long time, but was rarely used. The unit is working. The check valve was checked and cleaned - it is working. Unfortunately, there is no passport for it, but judging by the brackets, it can be installed both vertically and horizontally. I installed it vertically
the upper input on the boiler with a blue end (with a check valve connected the cold water inlet to it), the lower one with a red ring (direct hose to water outlets). The rings on the boiler are non-removable, i.e. no one mixed up their places. The nameplate on the device with markings and other data in this position is read directly, which also indicates its correct position. On the bottom of the unit was a temperature controller with an indication of inclusion (a mechanical thermostat and a neon indicator lamp) and a cord for connecting to an outlet. That is, logically, turning it upside down contradicts the meaning (it is impossible to regulate and the indication is not visible). But then it turns out that it has an upper inlet for cold water, and a lower outlet for hot water. When the mixers are closed (even the taps on the water outlets are all closed), when the device is heated after 2-3 hours, the cold line heats up very much. Even the high-pressure hose of the pump that goes into the well overheated. During subsequent control, purely visually by hand, the inlet of the cold hose is even hotter than the outlet of the hot one. Questions: Is it a universal unit (vertical-
horizontal)? If it is vertical, then, contrary to logic, should it be set up with an indicator and a regulator (so that the blue water intake is from below)? Or is it still horizontal? Or do you need to add something else?

Is the valve itself correct? If it is serviceable, and installed correctly, in any case, hot water should not pass through it. Well, maybe a little, if it works. The model is vertical, indicator and regulator from below. It is necessary to completely fill the device (faucets are needed for both nozzles), disconnect from the system and open both taps. From the first it will gush globally, and into the second it will suck in air. The first is the cold water inlet, the second is the hot water outlet.

What is the device and principle of operation of the storage water heater Atlantic Steatite Exclusive 200?

Conventionally, all models, the installation of which is more correct to entrust to specialists, can be divided into two types: "Dry" - steatite heating elements in flasks "Wet" - copper heating elements without flasks.

How do "dry" steatite heating elements differ from steel tubular heaters, which are used by other manufacturers in "dry" models?

Steatite is an ideal natural material for electrical equipment. It has very high physical characteristics, mechanical strength and stability. Steatite withstands temperatures above 1000C, does not burn and has excellent thermal conductivity. Compared to steel heaters, steatite elements have a large heat transfer area, which allows them to heat water faster.
They heat up almost instantly and cool down for a long time, which favorably affects the energy efficiency of EWH.

How many liters of hot water comes out of the Atlantic water heater 100 liters?

When water is taken from a hot tap at the point of consumption, the volume of water heated to the maximum temperature will be about 3/4 of the total volume of the device. The remaining 1/4 part is water from the layer where the heated water is mixed with the incoming cold water. The amount of outgoing hot water depends on the intensity of the flow through the EWH and the temperature of the incoming water.

Why does the heating time increase during the cold season?

This is due to a decrease in the temperature of the incoming cold water supply.

What is the maximum hot water temperature?

The maximum heating temperature is 63±30 C.

Why is there no scale on the temperature gauge?

The temperature gauge is designed to display the process of heating or cooling water in the device. It is not an accurate measuring instrument.

Do I need to disconnect the Atlantic 50 liter boiler from the mains after each heating?

No. The unit operates in automatic mode. When the temperature set on the thermostat is reached, the contact opens and the voltage is removed from the heating element, the device turns off. When cooling, the contact closes and voltage is applied to the heating element.

What is the energy consumption of the Atlantic Vertigo Steatite 100 electric water heater?

The amount of electricity consumed depends on the intensity of operation of the device, as well as the temperature of the cold liquid entering it.

What is the purpose of the safety valve in the Atlantic model for 80 liters? Why is it dripping?

The safety valve is designed to prevent liquid from flowing out of the tank in the absence of it in the cold water supply riser, as well as to relieve excess pressure that forms in the tank when the heated water expands. The pressure is released by dropping a small amount of it from a special hole when the pressure in the tank reaches 8 atm. Installing the valve supplied with the device
required.

How much volume can drain from the relief valve vent on the Atlantic Steatite Elite 80?

It depends on the intensity of operation - the more often the device is turned on in heating, the more liquid will be discharged. It also depends on the pressure in the cold water supply riser - the higher the pressure in the riser, the less time it takes to reach the pressure in the tank, at which the discharge occurs.

The Steatite Cube 100 model is in operation. Why is a magnesium anode needed and why should it be periodically replaced?

The purpose of the magnesium anode is to increase the reliability and improve the operating conditions of the unit by protecting the steel tank from corrosion and preventing the formation of a dense scale deposit on the copper heating element. The protection of a steel tank from corrosion lies in the fact that during the electrochemical interaction of several metals in an aqueous solution, corrosion of a metal with a lower
electrode potential. In the device, the copper heating element has the highest potential, then comes the steel tank and then the magnesium anode, which undergoes destruction (corrosion). With the complete destruction of the anode, the steel tank undergoes corrosion. That is why the spent magnesium anode must be replaced with a new one in a timely manner.

What is the frequency of replacing the magnesium anode for the Atlantic boiler?

Replacement interval for model N4E, N4, PC, S3S, D400-1-M, Round VMR, Delfa N4L, Aston, Welcome - 12 months. When using the device in production, in the service sector and catering places - 6 months.
