About this deal

When Heating is also called for, the white wire is energised and the valve will motor to, and stop in, a mid-position. Power for the boiler is still supplied directly from the cylinder thermostat. The orange valve wire may have a potential of 230V but this is coming from the cylinder stat (to which the orange wire is also connected) and not from the circuitry of the valve. The V4043B valves are uncommon and likely to be found in solid fuel systems. These valves fail-safe in the open position in the event of a power failure or valve motor failure. As we’ve said above, Honeywell make a large range of motorised valves. The Normal state of a valve is the de-energised state. This is the state when no electrical power is being used by the valve motor. A normally-closed valve is closed when no power is being applied to it and needs electrical power to drive it open. Correct. I've not really got access to hot water. I say not really, as the boiler will run for ~10 mins, then the overheat light will come on, and then banging will occur in the pipes. This banging occurs due to air in the pipes. If I goto the loft and bleed the top-most valve the banging will go away. I can then use the HW again but I end up having the same problem.

If the property uses a combi boiler (rather than a heat-only boiler) the boiler will usually contain a diverter valve. In small properties there may be no other motorised valves.A failed motor will prevent the motorised valve from opening but it is not the only cause of a valve failing to open correctly. After years of use, the O rings sealing the valve spindle (or actuator shaft) can fail. When this happens, central heating water will seep past and will corrode the metals. These valves have compression pipe connections, though Honeywell make motorised valves with threaded connections too. How motorised valves are used The Honeywell mid-position motorised valve has three ports in a T configuration. Water enters via port AB. Water leaves by either port A or port B or by both at the same time. Port A is normally connected to the radiator circuit and Port B to the cylinder coil (to heat hot water). The circulating pump is usually connected to feed water from the boiler into port AB.

It will make it easier when re-fitting it (just remember which end the flex was connected or take a picture on your phone). The powerhead can only fit one way round onto the valve body but if space is tight that might not be obvious. This can be difficult to feel for at first. It is most obvious when the valve has been in the Heating Only position and reverts to the mid-position. With modern boilers, the boiler sends a Live feed to the circulating pump which then pumps heated boiler water through the valve. It will go to the radiators or to the cylinder coil, depending on which valve was opened. With older boilers, the Live from the auxiliary circuit end switch goes directly to the pump at the same time as it goes to the boiler Switched Live. With the powerhead cover removed you also have access to the screw which retains the motor. The motor can, if necessary, be removed without disconnecting the powerhead from the valve body. Occasionally we come across a Honeywell motorised valve where the powerhead jams but the spindle (actuator shaft) is still free. Where this happens it is usually with the valve jammed open. If all the power to the central heating system is turned off, and the manual lever is still loose across the whole slot, the mechanism may be jammed.System boilers may also have a diverter valve or zone valve built into them and might not have any external zone valves.

Replacing a failed Synchron motor in a Honeywell motorised valve is quite straightforward, assuming you know how to work with mains electricity safely. Make sure you read the whole process through before starting! Motorised valves are often fitted in tight spaces with limited visibility so note the orientation of the powerhead. If the valve motor fails, the motorised valve will not open. The valve will not then close the end switch and so will not complete the auxiliary circuit. The boiler will not fire (with no open pipe circuit to dissipate the heat), unless another motorised valve opens another pipe circuit and calls the boiler into action. This prevents the boiler firing and the pump running when there is no water circuit open. We find it is normally about 2.1kΩ (2100 ohms) if the motor is cold and up to 2.4kΩ (2400 ohms) if the motor is quite warm. I think that a reading anywhere between 2.0kΩ (2000 ohms) and 2.5kΩ (2500 ohms) suggests that the motor windings are probably OK. If the reading is many times higher than that, or it is open circuit, the motor has failed. In medium sized or larger properties, using a combi boiler, there may be an additional zone valve external to the boiler which allows the heating to be split into two zones.

If the powerhead was removed from the valve to make it easier to change the motor, it must now be re-attached to the valve. The power head cover can then be refitted and secured with the single screw. Make sure it sits squarely on the powerhead, with no wires pushing out from the sides.
