How an energy efficient water heater works
A complete energy-saving water heater consists of 2 main departments: the production of cold air department and heating hot water department. But really these two departments are carefully linked together, dense can not be separated, must be done at the same time. That is, in the heating of hot water at the same time, to the kitchen cooling. Or in the kitchen refrigeration at the same time also heating hot water.
Its internal structure is mainly composed of four focal parts: compressor, condenser, expansion valve, evaporator. Its process is this: the compressor will return the low-pressure refrigerant compression, brewed into a high-temperature high-pressure gas dump, high-temperature high-pressure refrigerant gas flow through the copper tube wrapped around the outside of the tank, the heat is conducted by the copper tube to the tank, cooling down the refrigerant under the continuous action of pressure into a liquid state, after the expansion valve into the evaporator, due to the evaporator pressure suddenly reduced, so the liquid refrigerant in this rapid evaporation It becomes gaseous state and absorbs a lot of heat. At the same time, under the action of the fan, a large amount of air flows through the evaporator outside, the energy in the air is absorbed by the evaporator, the air temperature rapidly decreases, brewed into cold air exhausted into the kitchen. Subsequently absorbed a certain amount of energy of the refrigerant back to the compressor, into the next cycle.
From the above principle of things can be seen, the principle of energy-saving water heaters and the principle of air conditioning is somewhat similar to the application of the inverse Carnot principle, by absorbing a large amount of low-temperature heat in the air, through the compression of the compressor into high-temperature heat, transferred to the water tank, the water heated up. The whole process is a kind of energy transfer process (from the air with the transfer to the water), not the process of energy conversion, no hot water heating through electric heating elements, or combustion of combustible gases to heat hot water.
Energy saving water heater maintenance method
Installation of energy-saving water heaters:
Energy-saving water heaters are usually installed in the kitchen balcony, the outlet is linked to the kitchen through the air duct, so that the cool air blown can directly enter the kitchen to reach the effect of cooling. Installation only requires the hot and cold water port and the building reserved for hot and cold water links, through the use of the installation is exceptionally simple.
Energy-saving water heater operation:
Energy-saving water heaters more than the acceptance of microcomputer intelligent controller, within the time setting, on-time switching effect, water temperature settings, ventilation settings, overheating and other intelligent control functions. However, most of the effects have been set by the manufacturer at the factory, directly using the default value on the line, basically just set the temperature you need (usually set at 45-50 degrees) can be used.
Energy-saving water heaters usually have a service life of more than 10 years, does not contain consumable heating elements, as usual, no need to replace the components, the normal use of deliberate maintenance. The moment of installation pay attention to do a good job related to protection, to prevent heavy rain and strong sunlight exposure.
