Kiturami boiler models

The Kiturami company is always in the process of developing new models of heating equipment. Today its boilers can be divided into the following types:

• Diesel boilers
• Gas boilers
• Biofuel boilers.

Models of diesel boilers are represented by the brands Turbo, KSO and STS. The first series includes models intended for home use. They can be classified according to heating power and hot water heating capacity. For example, Kiturami Turbo 13R diesel boilers produce 13,000 kcal of heat per hour.

The KSO boiler series is similar in design parameters to gas appliances. But after changing the burner and electrical equipment, they can also work on other types of fuel. These models use a turbocyclone burner, which increases efficiency and burns fuel almost completely.

STS models have good power, which is enough to heat a room with an area of ​​200 m2. Such a boiler can run on kerosene or light petroleum products. It is permissible to switch to gas by changing the burner.

However, perhaps the most interesting model of the Kiturami company is a diesel heating bi-fuel boiler. This boiler model has become a godsend for use in areas where there is no stable power supply. The operation of biofuel boilers involves the use of both liquid and solid fuels. It is worth noting that after using up all the coal or the entire supply of firewood, the unit “automatically” switches to running on diesel. This Kiturami diesel boiler is equipped with a “forced circulation” system, which makes it possible to increase efficiency indicators to the maximum. Such boilers can be of two models: KRM series 30R and 70R. Their main difference is in power indicators.

Diesel boilers produced by Kiturami have a simple design, so they are easy to use and maintain. Plus they have an affordable price! All this affects the huge number of buyers and positive consumer reviews.

Powerful Turbo 30R model

The Kiturami Turbo 30R diesel boiler is considered the most powerful in the series. It boasts a performance of 34.9 kW and the ability to provide heat to a room of up to 350 m². At the same time, the boiler is not very expensive, so you can safely consider it as a heating option.

This Korean boiler, like all other heaters in the series, has a burner device with a unique torch shape and an optimal fuel combustion mode.

A minimum of nitrogen oxides are released into the atmosphere, so the equipment can be called environmentally friendly.

The principle of operation of a diesel boiler... Pros and cons

• Availability of sensors
• Built-in thermostat
• Control panel
• Forced removal of processed gases.

Installation and operation rules

In the presence of power surges, it is advisable to purchase a stabilizer to ensure proper operation of the control and monitoring unit and safety from premature failure

The boilers are equipped with tanks for storing liquid fuel. These tanks may affect the performance of the equipment. Correct installation of this container is necessary, which must be aligned in all planes.

The tank must have a pipe for draining sediment and a fixing bag. The container must be periodically emptied of fuel and cleaned; it is recommended to use only purified fuel.

Before starting the equipment, the tank is initially filled with diesel fuel, which must sit for at least half an hour. Only after this the unit is started and operating modes are adjusted.

In the presence of power surges, it is advisable to purchase a stabilizer to ensure proper operation of the control and monitoring unit and safety from premature failure.

To maintain the operation of the boiler you need:

• Periodic mechanical cleaning.
• Constant monitoring of equipment performance and checking components and parts for leakage.

It is possible to independently install diesel boilers by carefully studying the diagrams and manufacturer’s recommendations. However, there are many operations that require the presence of highly qualified specialists so that the equipment does not have to be repaired later. The instructions for the exact procedure and principle of installation and the electrical installation diagram serve to illustrate the implementation of these works.

Kiturami boilers are an economical option with a long service life. The reason for premature repairs is untimely maintenance or filling with low-quality fuel.

Error codes:

• Flashing lights "01", "02" or "03" indicate a problem with the flame detector and no ignition. The boiler will need to be restarted according to the instructions;
• Error “04” indicates a malfunction of the water temperature sensor and will require repair;
• Error “08” is an indication that the route between the boiler and the sensor is too long or there is a wire break. Repair work is required;
• Error “95” – low pressure in the circuit. The boiler needs to be recharged and the heating system must be inspected for leaks;
• Error “96” – system overheating;
• Error “98” – lack of fuel during delivery.

Reasons for lack of ignition - error code “01”:

• The screw that limits the fuel level is jammed. It is necessary to replace the shut-off element or check the injection motor;
• Failure of the injection motor - a check of the motor’s performance will be required;
• Lack of fuel supply - you will need to check its level;
• Third-party object in screw gate;
• Photosensor failure - it needs to be checked for functionality.

Calculation of power and fuel consumption of a diesel boiler

Heating efficiency and fuel consumption depend on the correct choice of boiler power. This indicator is measured in kilowatts and is indicated in the device passport. To calculate the required power, you need to focus on the heated area of ​​the house.

In regions with a temperate climate, the following principle is used for calculating the required power - the sum of the areas of all heated rooms is divided by 10 and the required power is obtained. This calculation is suitable for one-story buildings with a room height of no more than 3 meters. Otherwise, the calculation is based on volume.

Fuel consumption depends on the power of the unit. To determine the fuel consumption, the power of the heating equipment is divided by 10. As a result, the diesel fuel consumption is obtained in kg/hour when the device is operating in the coolant heating mode. If the device operates in the mode of maintaining the temperature of the coolant, then the consumption is reduced by 30-70 percent (the exact number depends on the quality of the building’s insulation).

How to choose the right one

Before purchasing a heating device, you need to calculate the heat loss of your home. You can do this yourself or order a calculation from the designer. Depending on the obtained value, a boiler of appropriate power is selected with a small margin.

It is believed that approximately 10 square meters are needed for heating. m of building area requires 1–1.5 kW of heating unit resource. The final figure will depend on the region where you are located.

Indicators by climatic zones, kW:

• southern regions: 0.7–0.9;
• middle band: 1–1.5;
• northern regions: 1.5–2.

For example, to heat a cottage with an area of ​​300 square meters, located in the middle zone, you will need a boiler with a capacity of 30–35 kW.

What are consumers saying?

South Korean products are becoming increasingly in demand on the domestic market, and this is not happening by chance. As noted by everyone who already has Kiturami diesel boilers in operation, reviews from owners say that the main advantage of diesel equipment is its special design.

Modern models of heat exchangers are made of high-alloy steel, which significantly exceeds its analogues in durability. Making the boiler circuit out of copper allows it to interact well with water or antifreeze. Thanks to this feature, the device has increased thermal conductivity.

Diesel heating boilers kKiturami have positive reviews, they note the presence of an electronic system with internal and external remote controls, which simplifies the process of controlling the boiler and allows you to monitor its operation from anywhere in the boiler room.

What determines the fuel consumption of diesel heating boilers?

The control unit needs repair.
It is also necessary to check the power transformer (located on the right wall inside the device). Flashing indicators - lack of power. Lots of heat and hot water,

KITURAMI boilers – a dream come true!

Among the variety of climate control equipment produced by the South Korean company KITURAMI, the traditionally defining program is the production of boilers.

Having started producing boilers in 1962, KITURAMI is today the world's largest manufacturer of heating equipment, striving for leadership in the global market.

The annual program of the KITURAMI provides for the production of more than 1.2 million units of boilers with the ability to produce up to 9.0 thousand boilers per day.

The company’s enormous scientific and production potential and half a century of experience allow us to introduce into production our own innovative, scientific, technical and technological patented developments, which often have no analogues in the world. An example of this is the low-carbon technologies used in the operation of floor-standing solid fuel and combined boilers of the KF and KRH series, respectively.

The company is especially proud of the latest technical solutions in the design of wall-mounted gas boilers of the HiFin series. The previous series of wall-mounted gas double-circuit boilers with a capacitive heat exchanger previously had no analogues in the world, and the HiFin series boilers with patented technical solutions in design with a compact capacitive heat exchanger and a hot water supply circuit located in the expansion tank block, the latest burner design are the most technically advanced in the world .

KITURAMI boilers and their components and spare parts have all the necessary permits and Russian certificates of conformity.

KITURAMI boilers are widely used for heating and providing hot water to apartments, cottages, cafes, shops, hospitals, hotels, and other various public and social facilities, industrial and warehouse facilities, entire groups of buildings and even river vessels of small and medium displacement.

The high performance qualities of KITURAMI were especially evident when operating on river vessels, where such negative impacts as vibrations, low quality fuel and power supply from generators are especially noticeable. Nevertheless, KITURAMI operate stably and without failure.

The main features of KITURAMI boilers and indicators of their perfection include:

• all KITURAMI boilers are double-circuit , used for heating and hot water preparation;
• all KITURAMI boilers operate automatically , maintaining the set air and hot water temperature in the room;
• have a closed combustion chamber , which is a modern and often simply necessary condition for the use of boilers, especially wall-mounted ones;
• The use of our own, patented “turbocyclone” burners with double combustion of fuel allows not only complete combustion of the fuel, but also operation of the boiler at a particularly low pressure of natural gas in the networks, down to 30 mm air column. This is especially important in winter conditions, when the pressure in the networks often drops sharply;

Possible malfunctions and their solutions

Let's look at the typical problems of Kiturami boilers and how to eliminate them.

Error 01

Code 01 means “no ignition”: ignition fails.

Doesn't start

Symptoms of malfunction: the device is connected to the network, but power is not supplied.

Leaking

If leaks are detected, it is necessary to carefully check the connections to the heating and hot water pipes. The sealing gaskets may need to be replaced. If the joints are sealed, contact a service center.

The burner goes out at times

Repeated extinction of the flame is indicated by code “03” on the thermostat.

There is no draft and smoke enters the room

Backdraft in a chimney is a dangerous phenomenon. May lead to poisoning of people from exhaust gases. Read about installing a circulation pump in a heating system on the website.

Choosing the optimal diesel boiler option

The combustion of fuel with a high sulfur content promotes the formation of condensate, and its accumulation will result in corrosive processes that destroy the metal. Installation in the house, from the very beginning there was a problem with noise when starting, when heating only for the shower, there is no such problem, when heating for heating it rattles loudly, the water was drained from the heating, the adjustment was carried out by a service technician, what to do.

Specifications

The operational characteristics, dimensions and parameters of Turbo series boilers are presented in the table below. It is clearly seen that the series of floor-standing diesel boilers covers a power range from 10 to 35 kW, which is quite enough to heat houses up to 250-275 square meters. Part of the heat will be used to prepare hot water, which must be taken into account in the calculations.

All Kuturami double-circuit boilers and heat exchangers, by the way, are ideally designed specifically for these tasks.

Fuel consumption

Fuel consumption is indicated in the table with technical requirements. However, please remember that actual consumption depends on individual settings. Based on the actual power required to heat the house, an appropriate nozzle is selected from the set offered by the manufacturer.

Thermal power, fuel consumption and fuel combustion mode are set. The parameter indicated in the table displays factory presets sufficient to ensure proper performance provided that only high-quality fuel is used, more often this means diesel fuel with winter additives that do not allow it to thicken or separate paraffin in excess of the norm.

In a real situation, for a boiler model with a power of up to 15 kW, you can expect fuel consumption at the level of 8 liters per day, taking into account the frequency of burner operation and the optimal temperature regime in the house. However, this is not the limit.

The right approach to choosing a heating mode, as well as installing a controller with variable temperature conditions, for example, depending on the time of day and day of the week, can reduce consumption even more.

Chimney

Cuturami boilers, gas, diesel, floor-mounted or wall-mounted, are mostly equipped with a closed combustion chamber and, accordingly, a forced exhaust gas removal system. The Turbo series we are currently reviewing is no exception.

Chimney installation diagram

The chimney for boilers is coaxial to simultaneously supply fresh air from the street and remove exhaust gases. Since the exhaust temperature after passing through the heat exchangers is no longer high, the requirements for the heat resistance of the chimney are reduced, and the list of acceptable materials is expanded.

In the best case, a steel coaxial chimney is still used, but a ceramic vertical chimney with a group of internal separate channels for supplying air, removing gases from the combustion chamber and ventilating the boiler room can be effectively used in the same capacity.

The size of the chimney is strictly indicated in the boiler specification and operating instructions. For the entire Turbo series it is 80 mm.

If desired, you can make a chimney with a slightly larger diameter, but no more than 50% above the specified value, that is, up to 120 mm.

Under no circumstances should the size and cross-section be reduced. Even though the removal of combustion products is forced, the resistance of the chimney will greatly affect the combustion mode and the quality of fuel combustion.

Specifications

The Kiturami company was founded in 1962 and began its activities with the production of solid fuel boilers. Gradually increasing production capacity, closely monitoring global market trends and using innovative developments from its own research and development department, the company has become one of the largest manufacturers of heating equipment. Korean devices fully meet stringent international standards, have an ISO-9001 quality certificate and are subject to serious control at all stages of production. Kiturami gas boilers are a complex design of interconnected components and assemblies, the main one of which is a heating element made in the form of a turbocyclone burner. All models are equipped with a system for forced removal of combustion products, which ensures maximum safety for people present in the room and eliminates the risk of exhaust gas entering the room.

Both liquefied and natural gas can be used as fuel for Kiturami boilers. Kiturami boilers are available in a double-circuit version. They provide independent heating of water in two systems - heating and domestic hot water. And if in Russian-made boilers, when heating and hot water are turned on at the same time, the temperature of the coolant drops slightly, then on Korean models, when the hot water supply is turned on, the system automatically switches to heating mode. Thanks to this design feature, the temperature of the water in the network remains stable, moreover, it becomes possible to operate in different temperature conditions for heating and hot water circuits.

The choice of gas boiler power depends on the area of ​​the room that it will heat. Household models with a power of 15.1–34.9 kW are capable of efficiently heating a room with an area of ​​120 to 340 m², and are the most preferred option for owners of country houses and city apartments. More serious devices have a maximum power of 465 kW. Thanks to the possibility of cascade connection, which can number up to 10 devices, they can easily cope with a huge space of 46,500 m². Such boilers are successfully used for heating shopping centers, warehouses and industrial workshops.

Kiturami devices are characterized by a high speed of water heating: the average productivity of most units is about 33 liters of hot water per minute. This is a very good indicator and allows Korean models to compete on equal terms with well-known Czech and German brands. All heating devices are equipped with a multifunctional room thermostat, which automatically monitors the room temperature and, if necessary, starts or turns off the boiler. Models can easily switch from gas to diesel fuel, which makes them more versatile and significantly expands their scope of application. Korean boilers are equipped with a device status warning system and instantly notify the owner of a problem. In the event of a breakdown, a digital code instantly appears on the display screen, indicating which unit has failed or is not working correctly.

For ease of troubleshooting, there are the following generally accepted error codes:

• 01–03 – the system does not detect fire, which is why the ignition is automatically blocked and the device turns off;
• 04 – temperature sensor failure; in this case, the boiler must be turned off and a specialist must be called immediately;
• 05 – opening of the overheating sensor or activation of the seismic sensor;
• 06 – the boiler has stopped recognizing the blower speed;
• 07 – the fan does not work correctly, which may be due to the accumulation of condensation in the elbow or wind that penetrates the chimney; Before calling a specialist, you should exclude the above reasons and eliminate extraneous influences on the device.

Features of Kiturami boilers

Kiturami is a South Korean company with more than half a century of experience in the development and production of heating boilers and related equipment.

During this time, the company became one of the leaders in the domestic Korean market, and also found a large sales market in North America and nearby Asian countries. In our country, Kiturami boilers have been officially distributed for at least ten years and have already managed to show their good side.

The main emphasis in promoting boilers is on the introduction of innovative technologies and, in particular, our own developments, which have no analogues from other manufacturers or determine the narrow specificity of the equipment’s operation.

Diesel boilers, by definition, are not considered as the main model range for a wide range of applications. In terms of economic feasibility, they are inferior to gas, electric and even solid-state boilers. However, they are still in demand among consumers due to a number of reasons why liquid fuel is becoming preferable.

In remote areas of residence, where there is no stable connection to power grids and no gas supply, the issue of fuel availability becomes acute. At the same time, the heating of the house must, by definition, work uninterruptedly throughout the entire season. If for many countries such situations are rather the exception to the rule, then for us, on the contrary, they are commonplace, the reason for which is the vast expanses that separate populated areas.

Diesel fuel, unlike gas, is easier to transport and easier to store with minimal risks to life and the environment. Unlike solid fuel boilers, diesel fuel, when burned, provides uniform heating and a greater degree of control over resource consumption. And finally, the design of a diesel boiler and, in particular, the burner does not limit the use of other heat sources.

With minimal changes, a diesel burner can be replaced to use blue fuel, and boilers equipped with an extensive combustion chamber and grate can quickly switch to using coal, wood or pellets.

Kiturami diesel boilers are highly technologically advanced and are ideally balanced equipment for using diesel fuel as a heat source, and at the same time they are excellent for the listed types of conversion to operate on gas or solid fuel. So constructive and functional flexibility is the first significant advantage.

Kiturami boilers often use their own developments and a unique layout. On the one hand, this reduces the maintainability of heating equipment, but on the other hand, it ensures the highest boiler efficiency and balanced operation while observing simple and transparent operating rules

This is the second good reason to turn your attention to diesel boilers originating from South Korea.

The last advantage is the cost of boiler equipment. Even taking into account the high performance and proven quality of the boilers, their cost does not exceed the market average among similar offers.

So it turns out that Kiturami boilers have three features: a balanced design, high efficiency and an affordable price.

Kiturami boiler design

Installation nuances and requirements

The installation of a Kiturami diesel appliance must be carried out by qualified specialists with special permission. The equipment is located in a separate non-residential premises. The boiler room must be well ventilated.

Burner settings and efficiency

The Kiturami diesel burner is adjusted before putting the device into operation or when performing maintenance. The adjustment is made by moving the air damper screw until the flame reaches the desired shade.

The efficiency of the burner is determined by the color of the flame:

• black and red - it is necessary to increase the air supply;
• bright white - signals the need to close the damper;
• yellow-red - is optimal, in this case the burner operation is considered effective.

The flame should be even. If the torch deviates to the side, it indicates the need to replace the nozzle.

Boiler piping

Connecting the Kiturami boiler to utility networks must be carried out in accordance with the instructions.

The harness includes connection to:

• heating system;
• DHW circuit;
• chimney and pipe;
• electrical networks;
• fuel line.

When connecting to heating and water supply pipes, shut-off valves and filters are installed. To compensate for the expansion of the coolant, special tanks are used. In systems with forced circulation, pumps are installed.

For the operation of Kiturami diesel heat generators, it is necessary to connect to a 220 V network. The device is provided with a separate socket located at a distance of at least 30 cm. If there are voltage drops, it is recommended to install a network stabilizer. Grounding is carried out to a depth of at least 30 cm.

To remove flue gases, a special set of forced exhaust pipes is used. The horizontal section of the chimney is placed at an angle of 5 degrees to prevent precipitation and condensation from getting inside.

The device is connected via a fuel line to a container with diesel fuel. Using a pump, fuel is pumped into the system, passing through the fuel filter, and supplied to the burner.
