Introduction

The Rinnai Infinity hot water units represents the latest technology in continuous flow, temperature controlled hot water.

Features

• The Rinnai Infinity 16i will NEVER RUN OUT of hot water. As long as electricity, water, and gas supplies are connected, hot water is available when hot water taps are open.

• Built into the main micro-processor is the facility to LIMIT THE MAXIMUM TEM-

PERATURE of the hot water supplied. The water temperature may be set to various temperatures. This is particularly useful when the hot water unit is installed where young children or the infirm may be using the hot water. If required, the temperature can be changed via the control pad on the front of the unit or with a localised controller. For further information, please contact Rinnai.

• Rinnai Infinity internal units are powered flue appliances. This makes them COM-

PACT, saving both floor and wall space.

• The temperature of outgoing hot water is CONSTANTLY MONITORED by a

BUILT-IN SENSOR. If the temperature of the outgoing hot water rises to more than

55°C the burner is shut OFF and only turned ON again when the temperature falls to below the selected temperature.

• The burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is opened, and extinguishes when the tap is closed. IGNITION IS ELECTRONIC, so there is no pilot light. When the hot water tap is off, no gas is used.

• The 16i has a built in controller on the front of the unit for easy control. Two additional external temperature controllers can be mounted remotely from the heater.

This offers the following additional features:

Localised temperature setting. message.

• Temperatures selected at the controllers are retained in the SYSTEM MEMORY when the controller gives up priority or the system is turned off. Temperatures over

55 0 C will revert to 55 0 C when power and/or priority is regained.

Operating NOISE LEVEL IS VERY LOW.

ERROR MESSAGES ARE DISPLAYED on the Temperature Controllers, assisting with service.

FROST PROTECTION device built in as standard.

HOT WATER SUPPLY OPERATION

Ignition

Press ON/OFF Button of Optional Remote Control to turn on unit . The remote control display and priority LED will light up. When a hot water tap is opened the Water Flow Sensor revolves and sends a pulse signal to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB.) When the PCB detects a water flow over 2.4 L/min it compares the temperature at the Hot Water Thermistor to the set point and begins the ignition process; the Combustion Fan starts first. Once the chamber has been purged and the air proving has made the Electrode begins to spark to Earth. The Main

Solenoid Valve and Changeover Solenoid Valve 2 are opened and the Burner lights. The

Flame Rod will ensure proper burning before Changeover Solenoid Valve 1 will open.

Temperature Setting

With the Temperature Control Buttons on the controller the outlet temperature can be set from

37 - 60℃. When the temperature set point is above 50℃ the High Temperature Indicator glows. Temperature can not be set above 48℃ while hot water is in use (flowing.) The unit will continually monitor the outgoing temperature and can fully modulate the performance with the

Modulating Valve and the Servo Control.

Standby

When the hot water tap is closed the PCB no longer receives a pulse signal from the Water Flow

Sensor. The PCB shuts the Main Solenoid Valve and Change-over Solenoid Valves and the

Burner extinguishes. The combustion fan will run on to post purge the chamber.

10

Main Components

1. Gas Control Unit

1.1 Modulating Valve

This device is used by the PCB to adjust the volume of gas to the burner in proportion to the volumetric flow rate of water in order to maintain a supply of constant temperature hot water amid changes in water flow rates and incoming temperatures.

1.2 Change-over Solenoid Valves

Additional solenoid valves are included to section the burner and stage the control in 3 steps. This gives the Burner more steady combustion at the required capacity and allows the water heater to operate at very low flow rates and temperature rises.

2. Flame Rod

Monitors combustion characteristics inside the combustion chamber. If the flame fails, gas supply is stopped. Works through rectification of the combustion flame. An AC current is supplied to the flame rod. Electrons can only pass from the rod to the burner, and never from the burner to the rod, so the resultant DC current is used to prove combustion. When the DC current is present the burner has normal combustion, if the DC current is not present

(or an AC current is present) the unit shuts the solenoid valve.

12

Main Components

3. Thermal Fuse

The thermal fuse is an electric link which must be intact for the unit to operate. If the thermal fuse reaches a set temperature it will melt and the unit will shut down. The thermal fuse must be replaced if it melts. It is to protect against over heating and heat exchanger splits where water may leak out and be superheated into steam.

4. Overheat Safety (Bi-metal Switch)

This Bi-metal Switch is fixed at the bend of the Heat Exchanger hot water outlet. If the temperature outlet from the heat exchanger reaches 97 0 C the bi metal switch will open and the solenoid valve circuit is broken. This will cease combustion in case of overheat.

5. Combustion Fan

The combustion fan supplies primary air into the wing burners and secondary air up through the Bunsen style burners. The fan is DC low voltage and the speed is controlled by the PCB depending on the hot water flow and temperature. The fan speed is compared to the current required to attain that speed for air proving. If the fan current is over or under the parameters for the given speed the unit will shut down on air proving.

6. Water Volume Servo with Water Flow Sensor

6.1 Water Flow Sensor

Water flow sensing is done with a small turbine that spins when water travels through it in the correct direction. Each of the four fins on the turbine has a small magnet on it.

Outside of the valve there is a magnetic sensor that detects the speed that the turbine is revolving. The revolution speed is input to the PCB which relates this speed to the water flow volume and determines whether it is sufficient for ignition.

6.2 Water Volume Flow Servo

The water volume is adjusted by opening and closing the water flow valve with the servo motor. This will limit the maximum hot water flow to 20 L/min, and will limit the water flow further when the burner is at high fire to ensure the temperature setpoint it met.

13

Water Flow

The figures on the following page show the available water flow rates for different outlet temperatures based on a range of inlet temperatures. Regardless of the output capacity the maximum flow rate is limited to 20 litres/minute.

Water Flows can also be calculated by the following formula:

M = 60 x ( Q / C x T )

Where M = Water flow rate in litres/minute. If M is greater than 20, the water must be mixed down at the point of use as the maximum flow rate of the unit is limited to 20.

Q = Heat energy output in kW = 28 kW for the Infinity 16i (the heat input to the water)

C = Specific heat of water = 4.2KJ/Kg C. Constant for this calculation.

T = Temperature rise required ( C)

Example:

What is the flow rate available with an incoming water temperature of 10 C and a required temperature of 20 C ?

T = 20 - 10 = 10 C

Q = 28

C = 4.2

M = 60 x ( 28 / (4.2 x 10) ) = 40 l/min. Since 40 is greater than 20 this flow rate must be mixed at the outlet.

How to read the charts on the following page.

The vertical axis indicates the selected temperature on the remote control and the horizontal axis indicates the flow of water in litres/ minute. Remote control range is between 37 0 C and 60 0 C under normal conditions (temperatures up to 75 0 C may be available if set on the dip switches.) The temperature rise is the difference between the Incoming Water Temp and the Hot Water Outlet Temp as selected on the controller.

Select the appropriate chart based on incoming water temperature. Draw a horizontal line across the graph from the selected temperature at the controller until it intersects the curve. From this point draw a vertical line until it intersects the axis. The value at this point of the axis is the maximum flow rate available. If the value is over 20 litres/minute a higher temperature will have to be used on the controller and the water temperature mixed down at the outlet.

WATER PRESSURE(bar)

Regardless of how high the incoming water pressure is it is not possible to obtain more than

20 L/min from the Rinnai Infinity 16i. In order to have this much flow the temperature rise must be low enough that the unit has the capacity to satisfy the temperature setpoint for this flow rate. For higher temperature rises the flow rate will be lower, regardless of the incoming pressure.

The water heater has a water flow regulator that will throttle the flow rate back to make sure that the unit only supplies water at the required temperature. If demand exceeds the capacity of the unit, the unit will limit the water flow so the temperature does not alter.

The water heater’s heat exchanger has a much higher pressure drop at high flow rates then at low flow rates. For low pressure installations use higher temperature set points.

In order to achieve maximum flow rate 1.5 bar pressure is required. The unit will operate on lower pressures. It is advisable to have at least 1.1 bar pressure.

Gas Conversion Procedure

18

Testing

1. Purge gas, hot water and cold water supply lines before making the final connection of the water heater. Swarf in either the gas or water supplies may cause damage.

2. Turn on gas and cold water supplies.

3. Test for water leaks and gas escapes near the unit.

4. Isolate gas and electric supply. Remove test point screw located on the inlet gas pipework below the heater and attach pressure gauge.

5. Turn the power on at the switch and turn on gas. Warning: There are 230V AC live supplies inside the heater.

6. If remote controllers are fitted, turn the controller on, select the maximum delivery temperature and open ALL available hot water outlets. If remote controllers are not fitted, simply open all available hot water outlets. (CAUTION: Ensure building occupants do not have access to hot water outlets during this procedure).

7. The gas pressure check must be carried out with all other appliances on the same main operating at maximum capacity to ensure that there is sufficient gas pressure.

8. With all appliances on the same main operating at high fire check the pressure at the test point on the inlet to the gas valve. The pressure must be within the local defined limits for the type of gas that is being used. If the pressure is lower, the gas supply is inadequate and the water heater will not operate to specification. Check gas meter, regulator and pipework for correct operation/sizing and rectify as required. Note that the gas regulator on the appliance is electronically controlled and factory pre-set.

Under normal circumstances it does not need adjustment during installation.

UK. For G31 Propane as used in the UK the pressure must be at least 34.5

mbar.

9. Close hot water outlets.

10.Inspect and clean the strainer and the filter located on the cold water inlet pipe. This procedure may need to be repeated to ensure the strainer remains clear.

11.If temperature controllers are fitted, it is necessary to test their operation through the complete range of functions.

12.Confirm the hot water delivery temperature using a thermometer. If controllers are fitted, compare the measured value to the set point.

13.After testing is completed, explain to the user the functions and operation of the water heater and temperature controllers.

19

Gas Pressure Setting

The working gas pressure on the water heater is electronically controlled and factory set.

Under normal circumstances it does not require adjustment during installation. Perform this procedure only if the unit is not operating correctly and all other possible causes for incorrect operation have been eliminated.

Troubleshooting the Infinity 16i

Rinnai water heaters have the ability to check their own operation continuously. If a fault occurs, an error code will flash on the Digital Display if you have temperature controllers installed. This assists with diagnosing the fault.

* In all cases, you may be able to clear the Error code by turning the hot water tap OFF, then ON again. If this does not clear the error, try pushing the On/Off button OFF then

ON again. If the Error Code still remains contact Rinnai or your nearest service agent for advice.

** Faults caused by insufficient gas/water supply or gas/water quality and installation errors are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Following a power cut the heaters should be restarted in this manner.

Standard system.

The heater(s) will automatically reset without any user involvement.

Single or multiple water heater(s) with remote controller(s).

To reset the heaters follow the steps.

1. Turn off all hot water taps.

2. Turn off supply to secondary circulating pump or alternatively, if heater and pump are fed from the same electrical supply, isolate pump flow.

3. Turn on heater at remote control.

4. Select required temperature.

5. Switch on supply to secondary circulating pump or open valve on pump flow.

The heater will now be ready to supply water at the set temperature.

If following the above procedure does not reset the heater switch it on and off at its main supply, and then go through these steps again.

23

Remotes

Remote temperature controllers are a feature that provides control over the water temperature. The Rinnai Infinity 16i water heater can be operated with 1, 2, or 3 temperature controllers. The controller MC-45-SR-EU comes as standard with this water heater installed into the front panel.

Digital Monitor

Indicates the temperature selected.

Error message flashes in the event of a fault.

Priority Indicator

Indicates that the controller has command of the system

(glowing,) or that the system is free to take command of (off.)

Priority Button

Used to transfer control between temperature controllers.

The controller with priority has command of the hot water delivery temperature.

Diagnostic Checks

A. Combustion Fan Circuit.

The voltages should be checked while the unit has the electric power On. The meter leads can be inserted into the connection plug at the pcb (Plub B from wiring diagram.)

To test the resistances electrically isolate the water heater, unplug the connector either at fan motor (B1) or at pcb (B), and measure the resistances through the motor.

Red – Black 6 – 40 Vdc -- fan must be on

White – Black 2 – 10 Vdc -- fan must be on

Yellow – Black 11 – 13 Vdc -- standby or run do not check Resistance appx 8.2 kOhms appx 2.5 kOhms

If Black – Red (Drive Power) voltage incorrect (while the fan should be running) replace pcb.

If Yellow – Black (Control Power / Speed) voltage is incorrect replace the pcb

If Yellow – Black resistance is incorrect replace the fan motor

If White – Black (Fan proving) voltage or resistance is incorrect replace the fan motor.

If the water heater is very loud and shaking the combustion fan may not be installed properly. Make sure it is in properly.

To remove the combustion fan assembly first remove the hot water outlet pipe connection, pull out the pipe and bend it out of the way. Then remove the 4 screws from the air outlet duct (2 in front, one each side) and take the fan out the left side of the heater.

B. Ignition System.

The best check for the ignition electrode and sparker is to listen to the unit for the ticking sound as it sparks. If it is ticking the sparker sub pcb is working. Remove the electrode and visually inspect for damage. Be sure to check the burner where the electrode should spark to. The spark will travel to the cleanest place so if the burner is rusty the spark could travel back to the plate. Give the burner a good clean with wire wool or something abrasive.

Check the thick black HT lead from the sparker box to the electrode. Be sure that connections on both ends are tight and the lead has not been damaged. Measure the resistance through the wire if it looks as though it may be damaged. The resistance should be very low.

Sparker box / sub pcb

Test to make sure that the sparker is getting a signal from the pcb through the two grey leads from the sparker to the pcb. The voltage can be measured at the terminals at the sparker by loosening the connector plug and putting multimeter leads on the terminal connectors. Put the meter leads on the terminals, power the heater, then turn on the water. It will only give a quick voltage reading.

Grey – Grey 240 Vac.

If this is not correct replace the pcb.

29

Diagnostic Checks

If it is correct unplug the HT lead and hold it about 3 – 5 mm from a clean, earthed, screw head. WARNING: ISOLATE THE GAS SUPPLY. KEEP HANDS WELL AWAY

FROM THE END OF THE LEAD – VERY HIGH VOLTAGES. Power the heater and turn the water on. A spark should jump from the lead to the earthed screw.

If this does not happen replace the sparker box – after you have confirmed voltage between the grey wires onto the sparker box.

If this does happen, but the electrode will not spark when the HT lead is connected then visually inspect the electrode, clean it, set the gap, or replace it as described in the first paragraph under B.

C. Flame Rod.

If the flame rod circuit is faulty the error code will be either 11 or 72.

If 72 is the error disconnect flame rod and cycle unit. If it is 72 again then refer to section on hot water temperature thermistor. If 72 is not displayed, check for electrical current leaks, and continue with this section.

First check to make sure all connections are tight. If not, tighten them and adjust the flame rod.

The next check to be carried out is continuity between the terminal of the flame rod and various points at the sensor end. Check this while holding the ceramic insulator. As the flame rod is metal the continuity should be very good throughout the whole length. If the continuity is not strong then clean the flame rod with steel wool or emery cloth until there is continuity through the whole length of the flame rod.

With the unit in standby measure the voltage (AC) between the flame rod connection spade (that is the yellow wire spade connector) to earth. This can be done with the unit in standby (electric ON) or with the unit on and burning. If it is burning this test will cause the unit to lockout so the reading will only be brief.

FR – Earth 55 – 150 Vac (running) appx 85 Vac (standby)

If there is no voltage, replace PCB

The next check is the current between the flame rod yellow wire and a clean, earthed screw with the unit in standby. Current should be at least 1 micro (µ)Amp AC. If it is less than this replace the pcb.

Next check the current between the flame rod and the pcb. This is measured by placing the meter in line between the flame rod and the pcb. Unplug the connector at the flame rod and put one meter lead on the spade, and one in the spade connector.

Current should be at least 1 micro (µ)Amp DC

If current is less than this the flame rod is faulty or needs cleaning.

30

Diagnostic Checks

D. Solenoid Valves.

There are 3 solenoid valves and one modulating valve. Two of the solenoids are burner sectional solenoids, and the third is the main, safety solenoid.

The easiest way to check the gas valve is by putting the manometer on the test point on the gas valve and cycling the unit. If the solenoids are working correctly the burner pressure when it lights should be around 8mbar. If the pressure stays at 0 mbar (or goes up slightly, to about 1 mbar) the safety solenoid is not opening; this is only a true test if the sparker is definitely sparking. If the pressure goes up to 21 mbar the sectional solenoid is not opening. Once the suspect solenoid valve has been determined you can determine the faulty component (solenoid valve or pcb.)

The solenoids should be tested for voltage and resistance at pcb connector F from the wiring diagram. The resistance is measured with the unit electrically isolated and the connector unplugged. Put the meter leads on the connections and measure through the solenoid. The voltage is tested while the unit is running and the connections are made.

While the unit is lit put the leads into the plug and measure the voltage (DC.) Only the

Main SV and SV1 will open upon ignition. SV2 will not have voltage unless the unit is on medium to high fire.

Main SV Pink – Black

SV1

200 – 240 Vdc

Black – Blue 200 – 240 Vdc

SV2 Black – Yellow

Modu SV Pink – Pink

200 – 240 Vdc

2 – 15 Vdc appx 6.5 k Ohms appx 8.0 k Ohms appx 8.0 k Ohms

67 – 83 Ohms

If the voltage is incorrect replace the pcb.

If the resistance is incorrect replace the solenoid valve. It should be noted that sometimes solenoids jam and are faulty even though the resistance is correct. If there is voltage to it, and there is no gas getting past it, then it is a faulty solenoid, assuming you have confirmed the incoming pressure. (High gas pressure will prevent a solenoid from opening, for example, if a second stage LPG regulator has not been used.)

The voltage should be present after the spark ignitor has begun to tick. If the unit does not begin to do anything check the Thermal Fuse Circuit (E.)

If the resistances and voltages are correct continue.

Check the secondary gas pressure change when the set temperature is changed from

55 to 37°C.

The secondary pressure should change. If it does, go to the water flow servo circuit (G.)

If the pressure does not change replace the modulating valve.

31

Diagnostic Checks

E. Thermal Fuse (Overheat) Circuit.

First locate the Overheat circuit. It is made up of red wires making a loop through the unit, including a number of thermal fuses, and the overheat bi-metal switch. Along the right-hand side of the unit the red wires can be seen running down the side of the unit from the bi metal switch. One of these red wires has a connector approximately in front of the transformer (Connector A5 from wiring diagram.)

With the unit electrically isolated unplug this connection A5. Unplug connector C from the PCB. Put multimeter lead into the red wire from connector C and the other lead into the half of Connector A5 that is attached to the bimetal switch. Measure the resistance through this overheat circuit.

Resistance should be less than 1 Ohm.

If the resistance is greater than 1 Ohm test each individual sensor to find which one is faulty and replace it AFTER checking the heater for damage. Check that the gas type and combustion dip switch settings are correct. Confirm gas pressure when the unit is operating again.

F. Gas Filter.

There is an inline gas filter in the inlet pipework connection. If the gas pressure will not achieve the correct level, and the inlet pressure is correct (20mbar) then drop the gas connection out to see whether there is a blockage in the filter.

32

Diagnostic Checks

G. Water Flow Servo Circuit.

If the heater makes a loud ticking unplug the flow servo (motor behind the internal brass cold water inlet connection) and run the unit to see if it stops. If so the motor is faulty.

Water Flow Servo Circuit.

From the water flow servo circuit there are 6 wires. They connect to the pcb at connector A (from the wiring diagram.) Remove the plastic terminal cover so that you can insert the multimeter leads.

First electrically isolate the unit, disconnect the 6 wire plug at pcb connection A and measure the resistance between red and blue across the motor (not the pcb)

Resistance should be 10 – 30 Ohms.

If the resistance is incorrect replace the water flow servo and water flow sensor.

If the resistance is correct then power the unit (with the connector (A) plugged in) and measure the voltage from the pcb by putting the meter leads into the other plug. Do this with the unit in standby mode (no flow.)

Red – Black 11 – 13 Vdc (control voltage) Incorrect replace the pcb.

Yellow – Black 4 – 6 Vdc Incorrect replace flow servo motor

Brown – Black 4 – 6 Vdc Incorrect replace flow servo motor

Red – Blue 11 – 13 Vdc Voltage only present when servo is (should be) moving

To remove the flow servo first unclip the cold water pipe in the unit (two screws) and pull out the copper pipe connection. Bend this out of the way gently. Then remove four screws from underneath. Now remove the flow servo full assembly.

H. Earth Lead.

Check to make sure that all earth leads are connected and there are no breaks or short circuits. Checks should be made at the earth lead, pcb, power cord, and surge protector. If there is a loose connection the Ignition electrode and flame rod will not work because they need to flash to earth. Tighten any loose connections.

I. Remote control.

Check the voltage at the connector on the right hand side of the unit, above the pcb, where the controller plugs in. Do this with the power on, but no water flowing. normal voltage: 11 – 13 Vdc.

If this is correct check the remote wire for damage or shorts. If this is all right disconnect the remote and turn on the water. If the unit operates correctly replace the remote control.

If the voltage is incorrect check the water flow sensor (J) before replacing the pcb. If the water flow servo circuit is working correctly replace the pcb.

33

Diagnostic Checks

J. Water Flow Sensor.

The water flow sensor is located inside the water heater immediately as the cold water enters the unit. From that there are 3 wires (red, yellow, black) running to the pcb, there is a connector plug in between the sensor and the pcb for testing. Measure the voltage with the water heater power on and no flow. Following this measure the voltage between Yellow and Black with water flow on. If there is a remote attached make sure it was turned on before the water began running through the unit.

Black – Red

Yellow – Black

11 – 13 Vdc at all times appx 8.5 Vdc water off 4 – 7 Vdc water on

*note: This Yellow-Black voltage is not variable with flow rate.

If Black – Red is incorrect replace pcb

If Yellow – Black is incorrect the water flow sensor may be faulty. Before you replace the water flow sensor be sure you have checked the filter (R) and for air locks (M).

If the voltage is incorrect and you believe the sensor may be faulty remove the water valve and blow through the rotation turbine to make sure it is free to spin – DO THIS

WITH THE GAS ISOLATED. You will be able to hear/see it spinning when you blow through it. If it is spinning but the unit does not start the sensor is faulty. If it is not spinning it may need freeing up. If its spins and the unit starts then there is a water flow problem – no water is flowing through the unit. Check that the unit is not piped up with cold flow into the hot outlet.

K. Thermistors.

Check all thermistors by unplugging thermistor lead and inserting meter ends into both sides of thermistor plug and measuring resistance on the 20 k Ohms scale. Apply heat to the thermistor bulb and watch the resistance decrease. Apply ice (or cold water) to the thermistor bulb and ensure the resistance increases.

Thermistor values should read about:

15°C : 11.4 – 14 k Ohm

30°C : 6.4 – 7.8 k Ohm

45°C : 3.6 – 4.5 k Ohm

60°C : 2.2 – 2.7 k Ohm

If there is a break in the circuit the resistance reading will be over 1 M Ohm.

If there is a short circuit in the wire the reading will be less than 1 Ohm

If either of these occur the thermistor should be replaced.

Sometimes water thermistors become coated with scale. If the values obtained are unexpected, or the outlet temperature is fluctuating remove the thermistor and check it for scale. Look into the heat exchanger tube to check for a ‘scale pocket’ inside. Beware when replacing the thermistor, there is an o-ring which usually sticks inside the pocket.

Remove it and put it on the thermistor before replacing.

34

Diagnostic Checks

Hot Water Outgoing Thermistor

This thermistor is located at the bottom left of the water heater where the water exits the water heater.

Combustion Air Thermistor

This thermistor is located next to the controller connection point on the right hand side of the unit above the pcb. It is at the end of the two yellow leads.

L. Check Non Return Valves and Mixers in System

Non Return valves and mixing valves occasionally have a tendency to pass cold water, especially if there is a mismatch of pressures. The easiest way to check for this is to isolate the valves on the water heater and turn on all the hot taps, one at a time. If there is a flow of water (besides the initial flow which is the pipework draining down) then there is a mixer valve or non return valve in the system passing.

There is another way to check non mixers and non return valves, especially in situations where the temperature varies or is only warm. Isolate the hot water outlet somewhere between the water heater and the first draw off. If there is a circulating loop (secondary return) isolate this as well. Now if you open the pressure relief valve of the water heater or a drain off point somewhere between the hot water outlet and the valve that has been isolated the only water that will travel through the water heater will be mains water at fairly constant temperature. Measure the outlet temperature at this drain off point. If the temperature is constant, and correct for the setpoint, then the water heater is working as it should and you need to find the mixing valve or non return valve that is faulty.

It is important to make sure that the secondary return has a non return valve installed after the pump.

M. Air Locks in the Heat Exchanger.

Upon commissioning or cleaning the filters, if the water heater is the highest point of the system the heat exchanger may experience an air lock.

To clear it, isolate the hot water outlet and open the pressure relief. The incoming mains should push the air lock out and the unit will fire.

To avoid air locks when cleaning the filter follow the filter replacement steps under section R.

N. Check Power Supply to the unit.

To make sure there is power to the unit make sure all the electrical isolators are On and the fuses are okay. With your meter check for 240Vac on the connection plug I of the pcb. Do this with the connector plugged in, and the unit in standby mode (power on, water off.) Stick the meter leads in the blue and brown plug.

If there is no power at this point you must find where the connection has been lost up to the unit.

35

Diagnostic Checks

O. 3 Amp Fuses

The unit has two 3 Amp fuses on the pcb and one in the moulded plug lead. Remove the fuses and check for continuity through. If there is continuity the fuse is good, if not replace it.

P. Transformer.

There is one transformer on the 16i located in the back above the cold water connection with the flow sensor and servo. To access it remove the top and bottom screw holding in the pcb and pull the pcb out. Let it hang from its wires, but be careful not to damage it or pull on it.

Test the transformer in standby mode (unit on, water off.)

First check the voltage from the pcb. The white wires from the pcb connection H go directly to the transformer, so if there is power from the pcb there is power to the transformer (check for loose connections.) From the transformer come five wires. These run back to the pcb connection D. Check the voltage from the transformer at this pcb connection. With your meter check Voltage AC by putting your leads in to the connector

(while connected.)

White – White 200 – 240 Vac. If incorrect confirm power to pcb, then replace pcb.

11 -20 Ohms. If incorrect replace transformer.

Conn D

Brown – Blue 12 – 14 Vac (0.7 – 1.3 Ohms)

Yellow – Blue 200 – 240 Vac

Orange – Orange 50 – 60 Vac

If any of these are incorrect replace the transformer – assuming the White – White voltage is correct.

Q. Filter.

Below the water heater, on the cold water connection is a brown or black plug. Isolate the water supply, open the pressure relief valve on the heater, and remove this brown plug. It holds a small, 30 micron, basket strainer. The strainer becomes clogged easily, especially after installation. When it is clogged sometimes water will travel through the unit without triggering the flow sensor. Make sure you check any external Y-strainers as well.

When finished cleaning the filter replace it and screw it in finger tight. Next open the cold water valve slowly (do not close pressure relief valve before this.) There will be a bit of water blown out of the pressure relief valve and then the air will be pushed through.

Once the air stops and water comes out of the valve tighten it up. Now open the hot water valve and cold water valve fully. This will prevent air locks.

36

Diagnostic Checks

R. Water flow.

To operate there must be at least 2.4 l/min flowing through a Rinnai water heater. If there is multiple heaters, installed without PAM valves or a MECS system then there must be 2.4 l/min per heater. A modern wash hand basin could be as low as 3 or 4 l/ min, so if there is no means of staging the heaters they may not operate. Isolate all the units except one to find out.

This problem could also crop up with a pumped secondary. Make sure the combination of the pump capacity, and the staging of the units is compatible.

This problem often occurs when a non return valve in a mixing valves sticks in the open position. Although the water flow at the taps will be good most of the water will be cold water crossing over and shooting up the hot pipe.

The flow rate from your tap can be determined with a Weir cup, or a deluxe controller.

The deluxe controller manual explains the diagnostics function. If you are not getting enough flow at an outlet, and you used to, check the filter (R.)

With the standard controller hold in the Temp Up button and push the Power button.

This will display the flow rate in litres per minute.

S. Gas Supply.

If the unit suddenly goes off you will need to check the gas supply. This is easy when operating on natural gas, and is done by checking the inlet pressure. Other things to check are the meter size, compared to other appliances total offtakes. If the unit has just been installed there may be air in the line, be sure it is fully purged.

If the unit is on LPG make sure that you visually examine the tank or bottles to be sure they are not freezing up. If they are then there is not enough gas. Check the regulators to be sure they will pass enough gas for the system. Make sure the unit is operating with a second stage regulator.

For both LPG and natural gas you will need to confirm that the gas pipe size is correct.

You may need to check the gas filter (F.)

T. Check anti frost heater components

The unit has three frost protection heaters mounted on the water pipes to protect them from freezing. The heaters are white ceramic resistive heaters, and come on around 5°

C. The voltage through the heaters, when active, is 240Vac. The heaters are located as follows. There is a valve heater in the mains incoming (where the flow sensor is) and another valve heater in the outgoing hot water valve (next to the hot water thermistor.)

The third one is located on the front of the unit, at the top on the heat exchanger inlet pipe.

Each heater element can be tested by measuring the resistance through them one at a time.

The top heater resistance should be 50 – 60 k Ohms

37

The rest of the circuit, including the valve heaters should be about 270 Ohms. Measure it by unconnecting the connector to the top heater and the connector to the hot water outlet valve heater and measure resistance through the sides of the connectors that lead to the valve heaters. Through one side there will be no resistance, through the other side there will be about 270 Ohms.

The entire anti frost heater system is done as a kit, so the easiest check is to see if they heat up when the sensor is closed. If not, replace the system. There will be 240 Vac through the heaters if the system is working so take care.

U. Frost Sensing Switch

The frost sensing switch is located at the top left of the heat exchanger. It is a black, top hat style bi-metal switch. It is a normally open contact so to prove it is working it must be cooled to about 5°C. At this temperature the resistance in the switch can be tested, it should be less than 1 Ohm.

V. Check Flue

If there are combustion problems they could be due to the flue. Is the flue too long? The maximum flue run is 6.5m, less 0.5m per bend, to a maximum of 3 bends. For flue extensions a condensate trap is required If there is a condensate trap installed, be sure it is the right way up.

If the flue gases recirculate back into the combustion air the unit will shake like it is going to come off the wall, and makes a similar noise to the rumble strips on the side of motorways. This can be due to the terminal being in a sheltered place or a corner, or the flue not being put together right..
