Conord gas boiler - technical characteristics of floor-standing models


Description and automation

The Conord boiler is made of 3 mm thick steel and has a high efficiency of 90%. It became popular due to two serious advantages: budget cost and independence from electricity. Today, Conords are produced in two modifications - with and without the ability to prepare hot water.

Moreover, any model can be equipped with thermo-hydraulic automatics or SIT automatics. This function makes it energy independent, and the fuel supply is controlled by a thermostat. This happens as follows: when the temperature reaches a certain parameter, the gas supply is shut off; This is how comfort mode is maintained.

This equipment is designed for moderately cold or very cold winters: the main thing is to correctly calculate the required power, and the unit itself will maintain the optimal temperature.

Advantages

Conord gas heating appliances have the following advantages:

  • boilers are very reliable and durable. They are absolutely independent of electricity, so their operation proceeds without failures or malfunctions;
  • manufactured units are safe. The package includes modern automation, which is responsible for stopping the operation of the boiler in the absence of draft and other negative aspects. In addition, automatic regulation of the set temperature level is carried out and the boiler’s operability is ensured at low gas pressure;
  • The performance is very high, the efficiency reaches 90%, the unit is economical. And due to the use of heat-insulating materials in the device body, heat loss is reduced;
  • during operation, the unit makes virtually no noise, it is small in size and has an attractive design;
  • If we compare Conord equipment with devices of other brands, we can say that the price of the equipment is quite reasonable;
  • gas consumption is much less. This is due to the fact that innovative technologies were used in the process of creating burners;
  • Double-circuit boilers are used not only for heating, but also to provide the premises with hot water.

Of course, Conord heating boilers have many advantages. The key ones are low price and independence from electrical energy. That is why such heating boilers can be called economy-class products. At the same time, their quality is at a high level.

Review of the range of gas boilers

The Conord plant produces and supplies floor-standing boilers to the domestic market, which are optimally suited for heating both small country houses and large cottages.

At the same time, the company offers a single-circuit or more functional double-circuit boiler. All devices are made of high-tech steel, have a modern design, are lightweight and compact in size.

Let's look at the main models and their technical characteristics, which are most popular among domestic consumers:

  • The KSts-G-S series has a power range from 8 to 30 kW. This single-circuit boiler is suitable for heating small houses, without heating water for domestic needs. An affordable price (depending on power from 14 to 23 thousand rubles) makes this series a sales leader. This floor-standing unit is equipped with multifunctional automatic equipment SIT (Italy) and has very low gas consumption.
  • – the Conord double-circuit boiler is also equipped with Italian SIT automatic equipment. Power from 12 to 30 kW makes it easy to provide uninterrupted heat and hot water to a residential building with an area of ​​up to 300 square meters. m. The cylindrical shape of the firebox allows you to achieve an efficiency of 90% with minimal gas consumption.
  • Series KSts-G-N. This single-circuit unit is equipped with AGU-TM automation of its own design and production. Power range – from 10 to 30 kW. Among the features, it can be noted that the instructions provide for the operation of such equipment without a circulation pump, which makes the boilers of this series completely energy independent.
  • The KSts-GV-N series are floor-standing double-circuit devices equipped with Russian-assembled thermo-hydraulic automatics. The boiler design includes a special smoke collector with a draft sensor, which turns off the gas supply to the burner when the draft is weak or completely absent. The special design of the smoke collector also prevents the occurrence of backdraft and boiler attenuation.

Recommendations for the use of equipment

Reviews of Conord boilers indicate that they are chosen mainly due to their reliability and affordable price. However, many consumers complain about one drawback: boilers often go out for no reason . This may be due to the following factors:

  • the burner is dirty and you need to clean the gas and air supply nozzles with a vacuum cleaner and brush;
  • there is not enough air for the pilot burner to operate fully. To fix this, you need to clean the air supply nozzles and improve the ventilation of the room;
  • Thermostat contacts have oxidized. They need to be cleaned or “stirred up”;
  • The draft sensor or flame sensor is broken.
  • Some reasons, as you have seen, can be eliminated yourself, but to eliminate others it is better to call the service department.

Also, the temperature of the coolant in the system can drop significantly. To eliminate this, move the thermostat switch to the maximum position or increase the gas supply to the burner, if such a recommendation is included in the instructions for the boiler.

Also, Conord boilers have their own operating characteristics in summer . So, to turn off the heating circuit, you need to turn off the water supply tap. If only the pilot burner is working, the water heats up to 60 degrees in an hour. If there is no further water consumption, then it will be enough for a couple of hours for small household needs. After heating the boiler, if active consumption of hot water is not planned, it should be turned off, otherwise the water will boil and the boiler may break.

Second group with a steel heat exchanger:

The Conord boiler with the design of a steel cylindrical heat exchanger made of cold-rolled metal is offered by the plant in single- and double-circuit versions. The service life is reduced compared to cast iron to 15 years. The designs use two automation options.

The first option: SIT automation from an Italian company known for its quality throughout the world. It is installed in the vast majority of all manufactured boilers in the European Union, such famous devices as: IMMERGAS, Fondital, Vaillant, Bosch and many others. The SIT valve allows you to guarantee a stable set temperature.

In addition, automation controls stable operation with a reduced gas pressure in the city pipeline. So the nominal value provides for operation with a pressure of 1.3 kPa, but a drop to 0.6 kPa is not a big problem and the Conord gas boiler continues to operate steadily, despite the fact that this is 46% less than required.

Single-circuit, with automatic SIT – heating only:

KSts-G-8S Heating capacity =8 kW KSts-G-10S Heating capacity =10 kW KSts-G-12S Heating capacity =12 kW KSts-G-16S Heating capacity =16 kW KSts-G-20S Heating capacity =20 kW KSts-G-25S Heating capacity =26 kW KSts-G-30S Heating capacity =30 kW KSts-G-40S Heating capacity =40 kW KSts-G-50S Heating capacity =50 kW

Single-circuit, with thermohydraulic automation

The second option is more budget-friendly, equipped with domestically developed AGU-T-M automatic equipment. AGU is an automatic gas burner device, consisting of nozzles and safety automation. The main manufacturers are Mimax and Tagonrog. ASU automation consists of:

  1. temperature sensor;
  2. igniter with thermo-bimetallic plate;
  3. adjusting screw with lever;
  4. gas valve;
  5. block crane;
  6. connecting parts.

Ignition order:

  1. We check the draft, move the damper, light the igniter.
  2. Press the gas valve and light the wick. We fix and do not release the button until the bimetallic plate heats up.
  3. While continuing to hold the button, follow the lever. It will creep onto the inscription “on the button”, we need to wait for the moment when it is fixed.
  4. Release the gas valve and set the required temperature using the control knob.

Domestic automation makes it possible to buy a Conord boiler a little cheaper. In contrast to European analogues, it has the simplest design. It is non-volatile - no power supply is required. The starting process is carried out manually by igniting with matches or a lighter. By the way, thermo-hydraulic automation type AGU-T-M is widely used in Russian gas boilers

According to customer reviews, such automation is completely unpretentious, and the Conord floor-standing boiler equipped with it is not “capricious.” In addition, it is not difficult to find spare parts on the market even far from city centers. The prices are also not satisfactory, for example, one of the frequently requested parts - a bimetallic plate - is found everywhere for no more than 100 rubles.

KSts-G-10N Heating capacity =10 kW KSts-G-12N Heating capacity =12 kW KSts-G-20N Heating capacity =20 kW KSts-G-25N Heating capacity =25 kW KSts-G-30N Heating capacity =30 kW

Double-circuit with DHW and SIT automatic control system

The Conord floor-standing gas boiler, when equipped with two circuits, copes with the task of heating buildings and at the same time is capable of preparing hot water used for household needs. The design uses the proven modulation function. Burner operation using modulation significantly increases the efficiency of hot water supply.

KSts-GV-8S Heating capacity =8 kW KSts-GV-10S Heating capacity =10 kW KSts-GV-12S Heating capacity =12 kW KSts-GV-16S Heating capacity =16 kW KSts-GV-20S Heating capacity =20 kW KSts-GV-25S Heating capacity =25 kW KSts-GV-30S Heating capacity =30 kW

Double-circuit with DHW, with thermo-hydraulic automation

KSts-GV-12N Heating capacity =12 kW KSts-GV-20N Heating capacity =20 kW KSts-GV-25N Heating capacity =25 kW KSts-GV-30N Heating capacity =30 kW

Boiler Conord decoding

  • K – boiler
  • C – steel material for the heat exchanger
  • C – cast iron, heat exchanger material
  • G – gas
  • B – DHW circuit
  • C – cylindrical.

Modifications and technical indicators

Marking of gas units can be:

  • KSts-G-10S – steel (C) gas boiler (K) with a cylindrical (c) firebox shape and without water heating (G);
  • KSts-GV-12 is a steel (C) gas boiler (K) with a cylindrical (c) firebox shape and a water heating (HW) function.

The numbers indicate the maximum power of the equipment. To calculate the required power for heating a house, you need to rely on the ratio of 1 kW of energy per 10 m2. This formula works with ceiling heights of up to 2.5 meters and with average heat loss (i.e., in fact, the building should be well insulated).

So, behind the numbers there are letters that indicate the type of automation: “S” is Sit automatic, and “H” is Honeywell thermal hydraulics. The plant produces boilers with cast iron heat exchangers, the specifications of which will be as follows: KCh-G-16 and KCh-GV-20 (cast iron boiler, respectively, with hot or without hot water). The service life of steel structures reaches 15 years, and for cast iron models - 25 years, and the manufacturer also provides a 3-year warranty.

About the manufacturer

The plant began its existence in 1947 with a small production workshop and a scientific department. In 1979, the first proprietary model was put into production - the DON-16 heating boiler, which for a long time was installed in almost all houses with gas heating. With the development of technology and the growth of production capacity, the Conord plant is developing new models that are more economical and reliable.

The modern history of the plant begins in 2012, when the production line was completely re-equipped and new equipment from the Japanese company Amada was installed. This made it possible to begin producing new models that are close to European standards.

Today the Conord plant produces more than fifty types of its own products:

  • gas boilers;
  • geysers DON and Conord;
  • heating devices AOGV;
  • electric water heaters;
  • solid fuel boilers;
  • pellet units and burners for them;
  • industrial heating boilers JUMBOJET.

Advantages of Conord boilers

All gas boilers from Conord have certain advantages:

Installation of Conord gas boilers

In order for the factory’s warranty to be valid, installation, configuration and commissioning of the boiler must be carried out by specialists from factory-certified service centers. There must also be a corresponding entry in the registration certificate. The connection of the gas main to the boiler must be carried out by gas service workers and again with an entry in the technical passport. Warranty claims will not be accepted in the absence of annual preventive inspection marks.

Heating boilers "Conord" have a low price

Installation highlights:

  • If the boiler is installed on a combustible floor, it is necessary to make a fireproof substrate, which should be 50 cm larger than the overall dimensions of the boiler on each side. The fireproof base can be a metal sheet laid on asbestos or mineral wool cardboard.
  • For normal water circulation in the system (without using a pump), it is necessary that the lower pipe be located below the heating radiators.
  • The pipes in the system can be anything. When using welding for connections, it is advisable to leave a few threaded connections for easy repair if necessary.
  • When installing the system, the following requirements must be observed: the risers must be vertical, the permissible deviation is 3 mm per 3 m of pipe;
  • horizontal sections are laid with a slope for air removal - at least 10 mm per meter of pipe;
  • bends to heating devices must also have a slope of at least 10 mm per meter of pipe;
  • It is imperative to install shut-off valves at the coil outlet.
  • Requirements for chimneys:
      The finished chimney to which the boiler is connected must be located inside the building in a load-bearing wall.
  • When a smoke exhaust pipe passes through an unheated room, it must be protected with heat-insulating materials.
  • The diameter of the chimney must be larger than the outlet pipe. Failure to comply with this recommendation leads to unstable operation (switches off due to insufficient traction).
  • The chimney must be vertical without ledges.
  • The parameters, design and height must comply with regulatory documents and also be agreed with the fire department.
  • Gas boilers must be installed according to a project agreed upon with all special organizations.
  • Pressure testing and washing


    Pressure testing of the system is not the most necessary preparatory stage, but it is desirable, since it will show defects and leaks in advance, if any. Pressure testing is not always done due to the lack of a special pump and the reluctance to call a team, but if the heating fails in the midst of cold weather, the costs can be much higher!

    It is especially important to check a new system and one that, on the contrary, has been in use for several years. The cost of crimping in construction companies is from 3000 rubles

    Additionally, they may charge a fee for visiting the site (about 2 thousand rubles). By the way, a manual pressure testing pump will cost 4.5 – 6 thousand rubles

    The cost of crimping in construction companies is from 3,000 rubles. Additionally, they may charge a fee for visiting the site (about 2 thousand rubles). By the way, a manual pressure testing pump will cost 4.5 – 6 thousand rubles.

    Recommendations for users

    For stable operation of such gas floor-standing boilers, it is necessary to follow all the manufacturer’s recommendations. Since heating systems that operate on fuel such as gas are objects of increased danger. But if you strictly follow all the developers’ instructions, then such a system will fill the house with heat without interruption.

    The following conditions must also be met:

    • build a boiler room that will meet the standards;
    • consider the process of reloading a large and heavy boiler into the boiler room if a car cannot drive into it;
    • ensure a flow of fresh air into the boiler room;
    • be sure to consider the issue of laying non-combustible materials around the pipe that releases smoke;
    • position the chimney on the house so that smoke does not enter the windows, that is, take into account the direction of the wind;
    • ensure unobstructed access to the boiler in case of danger;
    • do not allow small children and pets into the boiler room;
    • If possible, do not plant the junction of the main pipe and the entrance to the house with heavily branching bushes.

    Floor cast iron models

    Floor-standing cast iron gas boilers Conord

    The power of cast iron models is about 16 kW, weight is about 80 - 95 kg. The boiler efficiency is about 90%, which is ensured by economical gas consumption. The heating circuit is made of cast iron pipe. Such models are most often equipped with German automatic equipment, which ensures proper operation of the equipment and temperature control.

    The heat exchanger has a spherical structure. To avoid rapid equipment failure, all elements are made from durable special cast iron alloys, which increases service life to 25 years and is significantly longer than that of steel heat exchangers. The circulation pump ensures uniform heating of the batteries in the house.

    If necessary, a boiler can be connected to cast iron boilers to provide the home with hot water. The price range of such models is 15 - 22 thousand rubles, which is due to their high power and the ability to heat large rooms.

    What are they?

    If you are interested in the products of the Rostov manufacturer, you can choose a boiler from four series.

    • With Italian automatic equipment SIT: KSts-G-S/ KSts-GV-S - single-circuit/double-circuit.
    • With thermo-hydraulic automation: KSts-G-N/KSts-GV-N - single-circuit/double-circuit.

    The manufacturer offers heating boilers with two types of heat exchangers: steel and cast iron. All gas heaters produced by the Rostov enterprise are only floor-standing. If you're interested in a wall-mounted unit (with a closed firebox), you'll have to look to a different brand.

    Steel

    Heaters with steel heat exchangers have the following advantages:

    • Steel is more ductile compared to cast iron.
    • Specific gravity is less.
    • High heat dissipation.

    There is one minus, but a very important one - low resistance to damage and corrosion. That is why consumers who know a lot about materials choose cast iron analogues. Manufacturers try to minimize this by using durable coatings, but they cannot provide 100% corrosion protection.

    Cast iron

    The main advantages of cast iron heat exchangers: high thermal conductivity and immunity to corrosion.

    • Cast iron is less flexible and ductile than steel and is not as resistant to deformation.
    • Inferior to steel in strength.
    • Brittleness is the main disadvantage of cast iron. Particularly dangerous situations arise during transportation and installation, which is why installation should be entrusted to specialists. After delivering the device home, be sure to check the integrity of the cast iron heat exchanger. Even the presence of microcracks is a most dangerous situation for equipment. If they appear, the equipment will soon fail and the heat exchanger will need to be replaced.

    Product line

    There are practically no wall-mounted boiler models in the brand’s line, so for a home heating system, consumers often purchase a Conord gas floor-standing boiler, which can be equipped with additional options. Floor-standing boiler models are produced in four series. The manufacturer makes all boilers from durable high-quality steel. To increase the stability of the boiler, its surface is treated with heat-resistant powder, which protects the device from high temperatures and loads.

    Consumers who are interested in such a device as the Conord gas boiler, instructions for use are supplied by the manufacturer, should analyze devices from the following series:

    1. KSC-G-S;
    2. KSC-G-N;
    3. KSts-GV-S;
    4. KSts-GV-N.

    Series KSts-G-S

    In this series you can find a good single-circuit heating boiler, which is equipped with a functional gas supply regulator. Italian automation, which controls the operation of a domestic boiler, guarantees its safety, reliability and efficiency in the heating system of a house or apartment. Devices from this series can be adapted for heating buildings with an area of ​​80 to 300 sq.m., but for this you need to choose the right boiler in terms of power.

    In order for boilers to meet the requirements of the heating scheme, it is important to pay attention to other parameters. Thus, the operating pressure of devices from the KSts-G-S series ranges from 0.2 to 1.9 bar, the minimum heating temperature of the coolant is 60 degrees, and the maximum is 90 degrees

    Series KSts-G-N

    Due to increased reliability, KSts-G-N boilers can operate in difficult conditions - they are designed for use in systems with operating pressures reaching 5 Bar. To optimize the heating process, excellent thermo-hydraulic automation is installed on the boilers. Since this series of products is more functional and versatile, the cost of boilers in it is somewhat more expensive - the minimum price of a basic device starts from 16 thousand rubles.

    Series KSts-GV-S

    An inexpensive double-circuit gas boiler Conord, reviews about which you should definitely read before purchasing, can be found under the marking KSts-GV-S. Models from this series are equipped with an additional circuit to provide hot water supply in the house. They operate under the control of Italian SIT automation and are designed to heat houses with an area of ​​120 to 300 sq.m.

    Having studied reviews of the Conord gas boiler, purchasing a double-circuit unit, the owner solves two problems at once and equips his home with an appliance that will help heat the rooms and provide the necessary supply of hot water for household needs. The boilers are quite versatile - they can be used in almost any circuit.

    Series KSts-GV-N

    KSts-GV-N boilers have a unique emergency protection system.

    These models are the safest and most reliable. They are equipped with detectors that stop the gas supply if there is a threat of explosion. Also, the boiler can independently stabilize the operating process when it detects short-term reverse draft. The power of devices in this series ranges from 12 to 30 kW. You can read how to choose a gas boiler for your apartment here.

    The Russian company has earned itself a good and strong reputation in the market through the production of reliable heating equipment. Among consumers, Conord gas boilers, reviews of which are mostly positive, are in consistently high demand.

    In the manufacturer’s line, you can choose a boiler for almost any heating system - after all, the power of various models ranges from 8 to 30 kW. By correctly selecting a boiler from the brand’s product range, the owner can make it the basic element of the heating system of an apartment, country house or large private mansion.

    Elements of safety and comfortable operation

    The group of automatic devices for boilers includes many elements that can be divided into two large groups: mechanisms that ensure safe operation, and devices that facilitate comfortable operation of the boiler.

    The following parts are responsible for safe operation:

    • thermostat;
    • draft and flame control sensors;
    • safety valve.

    The flame control sensor consists of a thermocouple and an electromagnetic gas valve that shuts off or turns on the gas supply.

    The flame temperature regulator (thermostat) maintains the required coolant temperature and also provides protection against overheating. This module turns the boiler on or off as soon as the coolant reaches a critical point (maximum or minimum).

    The draft control module stops gas supply to the burner as soon as the location of the bimetallic plate changes due to increased temperature (it bends when heated, blocking the pipe through which the fuel is supplied).

    We examined temperature, draft, pressure and flame sensors in more detail in this article.

    In a heating system, a safety valve is an integral component of pipeline fittings, which is important in controlling the volume of coolant involved in the circuit. The hole in the valve through which gaseous fuel moves is called the seat

    To turn off the device, you need to block it with a disk or piston

    The hole in the valve through which gaseous fuel moves is called the seat. To turn off the device, you need to close it with a disk or piston.

    Depending on the number of operating positions, gas valves can be one-, two- and three-stage, as well as modeling:

    • Single-stage devices have only two operating positions: on/off.
    • The two-stage device is equipped with one input and two outputs, and the valve opens when it is turned to an intermediate position, due to which the switching occurs more smoothly.
    • A three-stage device is equipped with boilers that have two power levels.
    • Modulating valves are used to smoothly change the power rating of devices.

    Automation, used for convenience, includes options that are usually performed by users of heating systems. These include auto-ignition of the burner, self-diagnosis, selection of the optimal operating mode, and others.

    Types and characteristics

    Conord floor-standing devices are available with different powers - from 8 to 30 kW. They come with one circuit: these are models KSts-G-8 and KSts-G-10, KSts-G-12 and KSts-G-16, KSts-G-20 and KSts-G-25, as well as KSts-G- thirty; and with two circuits: KSts-GV-10 and KSts-GV-12, KSts-GV-16 and KSts-GV-20, KSts-GV-25 and KSts-GV-30.

    Each letter in this case will have its own meaning:

    • “K” is the name of the device – “Boiler”.
    • “C” is the type of material from which the boiler is made. In this particular case it is steel.
    • “C” – the firebox is released in the form of a cylinder.
    • “G” - without other letters nearby will mean that in front of you is a gas unit.
    • The letters “DHW” will show you that in a particular case there is a product with a DHW function in front of you.
    • The numbers in this name indicate the level of the maximum power indicator of the device. When selecting these parameters, you need to take 1 kW to heat a room of 10 m2 with a wall height of no more than 2.5 m.

    Thus, the KSts-GV-12 device is a steel boiler with a cylinder firebox, having a hot water supply function and a maximum power of 12 kW. Products with one circuit are selected only for heating a home with an area of ​​30 to 300 m2. Double-circuit devices from Conord can be used for heating and for producing heated water.

    In the line of this popular brand there are almost no options for models for walls; for this reason, for their home heating system, ordinary people buy floor-standing boilers, which sometimes have a number of additional features. Floor products are produced in 4 popular series. The plant produces all units from high quality steel. To improve the durability of the boiler, a special powder layer is applied to its body, which will protect the device from exposure to fairly high temperatures and severe loads.

    KSC-G-S

    In this series you can easily find an excellent device with one circuit, which will also be equipped with a fairly convenient regulator for fuel supply. Imported automation, which is necessary to control the entire operation of the product, guarantees its complete safety. Devices from this series can be adapted to heat buildings with areas from 80 m2 to 300 m2, but you must choose the right boiler according to its power.

    Peculiarities

    To make sure that this product is of the best quality, you can read various reviews about these products that users leave about them

    Consumers are drawn to the fact that heating devices from Conord have a long service life, a decent degree of reliability and excellent efficiency. The full period of this guarantee is 15 years.

    Externally, these units are distinguished by a rather strict design. Models with two circuits can be used in hot water systems during the warm season of the year and will not be dependent on heating. Gas products from Conord are launched using piezo ignition, and the technical characteristics reflect their excellent functionality.

    All devices from Conord are divided into:

    • Models where there is no system for supplying the consumer with heated water. They have built-in Italian automation and are extremely in demand.
    • Heating devices that can only give warmth to your home. Their automatic elements use the principle of thermohydraulics.
    • Boilers that not only provide home heating, but also heat water for domestic needs. They have built-in automation from Italy from SIT.
    • Models that are capable of heating rooms and calmly warming liquid for various purposes. Thermohydraulic automation makes these tasks more simplified.

    Device (automation)

    The main element is the gas burner. It heats the heat exchanger in which the coolant is located.

    It is supplied by gravity or under the action of a circulation pump (purchased separately and connected as an external component of the system) into the heating circuit.

    For double-circuit models, a coil is installed around the smoke pipe to heat the hot water of the DHW circuit.

    Smoke is exhausted naturally, using the chimney draft, to which the boiler should be connected during installation.

    The heating system must be installed taking into account the placement levels of radiators that ensure natural circulation of the coolant.

    If this is not possible, you have to use a circulation pump, which stabilizes the liquid movement mode, but makes the boiler energy-dependent.

    Heating boilers Conord

    Rostovsky has a rich history and equally rich experience. Initially, the company was engaged in the repair of road equipment, but in the early 70s it was reoriented to the production of heating equipment.

    At the same time, the name “Conord” appeared, which is an abbreviation for the words “Heating Boilers, Non-Standard Equipment, Rostov-on-Don.” The newly born plant began its activities with the production of the DON-16 boiler, famous throughout the USSR.

    Heating equipment “Conord”

    Today it is a modern enterprise, the technical equipment of which does not in any way remind of its advanced age. The production lines are equipped with the latest high-precision laser machines, imported presses and robots, which allow us to quickly and efficiently produce reliable and affordable devices. The main part of the range consists of gas water heaters, as well as heating boilers - gas, solid fuel and combined.

    The range of boilers is quite diverse. First of all, the products differ in the gas burner device used (for short, they call it automatic). Three varieties are available.

    Automation AGU-T-M (Russia)

    • is cheap;
    • does not require power supply (a bimetallic plate is used as a temperature sensor);
    • does not impose special requirements on operating conditions and is inexpensive to repair (replacing the bimetallic plate - the only “weak link” - costs only 50 rubles).

    This type of automation is quite common in our country and its use is not limited to the Conord brand. You can also see it in such Russian boilers as Mimax and some others.

    There is no ignition system in the AGU-T-M, so the boiler has to be started using a lighter or a match.

    Automation Euro SIT (Italy)


    A boiler with such automation will be more expensive, but it simplifies setting the operating mode and ensures a higher level of safety. It contains:

    • igniter with safety device (thermocouple);
    • sectional burner with Polidoro tubes;
    • gas valve SIT;
    • temperature sensor;
    • traction sensor

    Unlike AGU-T-M, this automation reacts not only to gas shutdown, but also to deterioration of draft in the chimney.

    The coolant temperature is set using a thermostat and is maintained automatically by a gas valve.

    A piezoelectric spark gap is used to ignite the boiler.
