Features of the model range of Galan boilers

An electric boiler is one of the options for organizing heating in a building. There are several types of electrical equipment. In addition to the well-known heating elements models, electrode boilers are produced. Such equipment is highly efficient. The use of a saline solution as a heat carrier promotes rapid heating of the liquid. In Russia, the company "Galan" is engaged in the production of innovative heating equipment. The company uses the latest developments that increase the efficiency of boilers up to almost 100%.

Types of boilers Galan

The heating equipment of the company is divided into 2 types.

Heating elements

The devices increase the temperature of the water or antifreeze using a tubular heating element. There is a high resistance spiral inside the heating element. When current passes, it heats up, transferring energy to the coolant. Galan electric boiler is a stainless steel cylinder. Its heating blocks are lightweight and long-lasting.

The equipment is designed for connection to a single-phase and three-phase network. It is compatible with a closed heating system with a circulation pump. Electric boilers are equipped with three types of automation:

  • Economy - electromechanical temperature controller MRT-15.
  • Standard - electronic regulator Navigator Basic.
  • Comfort - electronic regulator and electronic programmer for air temperature.

Heating element equipment is produced with a capacity of 3-30 kW, it is capable of heating a room with an area of ​​30-750 sq. m. Electrical units can be used with a floor heating system.

Electrode

Galan electrode boilers

The process of heating the coolant in electrode boilers occurs due to the release of energy during the ionization process. When the current passes, water molecules split into positive and negative ions. Heating takes place in a special small-sized chamber, so the temperature of the coolant rises quickly. The hot liquid has low resistance and the boiler reaches its maximum power. The operation of the equipment is controlled by an automatic system that operates in conjunction with a room thermostat.

The coolant in the system is a special fluid or water with a set of additives recommended by the manufacturer.

Galant boiler with electrodes consumes less electricity. Depending on the power of the model, the unit heats a house with an area of ​​30 to 700 sq. m. Installation of boilers is carried out without the consent of government agencies.

Pros and cons of equipment

Boilers need to be selected according to power

Choosing a Galan heating system, the buyer gets several significant advantages:

  • Heating system with high efficiency and economical consumption of electricity.
  • The compact body and low weight of the boilers simplify installation, do not require the allocation of a large amount of free space.
  • Electrode boilers operate silently.
  • With proper installation, the equipment is absolutely safe.
  • The company offers a wide range of standard sizes.
  • The system is fully automated.
  • The design of electric boilers allows for the repair and replacement of damaged parts.

Among the advantages of the products are the affordable cost and versatility of use.Electric boilers can be installed in any room: apartment, office, warehouse, private house or summer cottage. They do not require a chimney device, do not have combustion products. The units do not need maintenance and cleaning.

The main cons:

  • dependence on the electrical network;
  • the need to prepare the coolant;
  • deposits accumulate on the electrodes, which reduce the efficiency of work;
  • in devices with heating elements, the heating element burns out when the coolant leaks.

Small-sized and reliable electrode boilers are the best choice for heating summer cottages and other small areas.

Boiler selection criteria

When buying a Galan boiler, you must immediately choose a coolant

In order for the heating system to function without breakdowns and provide a comfortable temperature in the house, it is necessary to determine the main characteristics of the boiler before purchasing. When choosing a model, the following criteria are taken into account:

  • Electric boiler power - the parameter is the main calculated value of the heating system. The average figure is 1 kW per 10 sq. m area. For more accurate calculations, you can use the online calculator. Experts recommend choosing equipment with a power reserve of up to 10-15%.
  • Unit dimensions - the size of the boiler will help determine the installation location. It is important to know the weight of the unit and the placement method. Lightweight compact Galan models are installed near radiators, it is difficult to recognize the boiler in them.
  • The degree of automation - the mechanical control unit is suitable for temporary use. The electronic regulator precisely controls the parameters of the system, ensuring economical consumption of electricity. Reliable automation switches off the unit in case of overheating or short circuit.

Equipment cost is another significant criterion. The Galan electric boiler is offered at a reasonable price.

Installation features

Installation of electric boilers is carried out between two pipes - supply and return

When installing a heating system using an electric Galant boiler, two pipelines are required. The upper line serves for dispensing, and the lower one for collecting the cooled coolant. When installing the system, take into account the manufacturer's recommendations for the materials used:

  • The use of cast iron radiators negates the advantages of electrode assemblies.
  • The elements of the system must have close electrochemical activity or be isolated upon contact.
  • The first meter of the pipe must be made of non-galvanized metal.

The unit must be positioned vertically and above the radiators. The total power of the heating batteries should not exceed the same indicator of the boiler. The manufacturer advises to insulate the section from the boiler to the upper distribution pipe. This will reduce losses due to local overheating of the pipeline and accelerate fluid circulation.

The electric boiler must be grounded. To avoid problems with its operation in the event of a voltage drop, it is worth installing a current normalizer. When choosing a location for the temperature sensor, take into account the manufacturer's recommendations. They also rely on the instructions when pouring fluid into the system. Its volume should be 8-10 l / 1 kW.

User's manual

Galan boilers are sensitive to the quality of the coolant, therefore they fail when using ordinary water

Galan electrode boilers are created on the basis of developments in the defense industry. They are universal in application and are recommended for various regions of the Russian Federation. To prevent errors in the operation of the equipment, it is necessary to study the manufacturer's instructions. During the heating season, the level of the coolant is monitored. If its volume is less than 1/3 of the expansion tank, add distilled water or antifreeze.

To extend the life of the heating system, the manufacturer offers several types of technical fluid for Galan boilers. With the help of the “Protector” corrosion inhibitor, rust, scale and dirt from pipes and radiators are flushed out. This procedure is necessary during operation and before the first start of the system. With preventive flushing, the solution is in the system for 6 days, then it is completely drained.

Coolant "Aquarius" is a prepared composition with zero resistance. It is inert and safe, non-corrosive. Its use extends the service life of the boilers. BlueStar propylene glycol antifreeze is used as an antifreeze coolant.

The manufacturer advises to clean the casing of the unit after the end of the heating season, to check the reliability of fixing the wires in the terminals. The reliability of the grounding and the automation unit is also monitored. In the absence of electricity, the appearance of moisture on the boiler body, grounding problems, the equipment is immediately turned off. Repairs to the units must be carried out by certified technicians.

Heating with Galan equipment is efficient and economical. Heater models can be used at night when reduced electricity rates are in effect. Electrode units consume 20-30% less energy, so the heating consumption is low.
