Heating boilers Siberia Hephaestus and KVO - an overview of models and reviews. Solid fuel boilers and furnaces "nmk siberia" History and secrets

Hello! My name is Ivan Davydov, I am a manufacturer of automatic coal boilers, perhaps many people know me in absentia ( The simplest do-it-yourself corner machine , Screw boiler Gorynych, House from timber , Boiler based on energy-TT) – My published works. ads: Budget 22 kilowatts, Screw for 25 kilowatts, Screw for 35 kilowatts, 30t kilowatts, 80t kilowatts.

I invite you to take part in the development of the Auger coal boiler as a buyer - at a cost of 100 thousand rubles, owners of houses ranging from 70 to 200 tons square meters(15 kilowatts nominal). This model's younger brother Screw for 25 kilowatts,

Advantages of this boiler:
1. Infrequent cleaning of the heat exchanger, compared to similar screw boilers and boilers long burning, for example, my boilers easily take out all heating season without cleaning (but in fact, any boiler must be cleaned at least once a month - but not all manufacturers reach even the 1st week):

2. "Endless" auger reverse when jammed(when jamming occurs, a reverse occurs - several attempts to feed - if the auger wedges, then work continues; if it does not wedge, then after a while it tries to feed coal again);
3. Large box for ash and slag. In stock condition (no extra charge for increasing the ash compartment and drawer like others)
4. Torch the burner does not bake cakes on any corner (Stone, Brown), and if it bakes, it pushes itself.
5. Flare burner of small size (minimum portion of coal on the burner) - during the off-season in "Stop" - bituminous resins is allocated a minimum, the heat exchanger will not overgrow.
6. It is “possible” to pour coal into the bunker directly from frost and partially with snow (Do not dry it in the boiler room beforehand, like others) nothing will hang, but still it is necessary to pour dry required fraction coal;
7. Faction picky Separate large pieces will turn into a "seed and nut" - a powerful gearbox and auger cope with this task with a bang;
8. None dowel is not cut- it simply does not exist ... Just reliable protection current does its job.
9. When the electricity is turned off, I guarantee that the boiler itself “Starts” through 6 hours when power is restored.
10. Boiler without decorative overlays - will be additional heating, in which it stands (car service, box, garage, those floor under the house). And when installing the boiler in a separate boiler room, it will additionally warm up the frozen coal poured into the bunker.
11. Spacious bunker, 215 liters. Fully sealed - fire in the bunker provided that the lid of the bunker is closed - impossible.
12. Not killed doors, handles and seals on them.
13. Reliable gearbox;
16) Damper (gate) adjustable on the chimney, in case of February winds - draft reduction.
17) Easily withstands high pressure in the system.
20) The boiler is very compact.(1200X800X1500 - Width X Depth X Height)

21) With this boiler can be controlled by the average woman.

Cons of the boiler:
1) The possibility of jamming the auger - still remains ...
2) When the auger jams, the coal supply stops completely and the boiler begins to quickly lose temperature, unlike my other boilers, which not only do not wedge, but also continue to burn from 6 to 12 hours when jammed;
3) If you want to use the boiler as "TT Energy" or in the "Grate combustion" mode, you need an additional uninterruptible source power supply ... Or block the emergency cooling unit;
4) Steel burner in the boiler - enough for 2 years of use, but 2 of them are included;
5) You will have to lift the buckets high when loading the bunker - the loading hole from the floor at a height of 1500mm.

From the author: For the last 3 years, the idea of ​​​​making a truly budget automatic boiler has not left me - A lot has been done since that time of various boilers.
Here in once more while winter is in the yard - made an attempt. For six months, they began to prepare for the creation of a boiler with Roman Kuzin from the city of Rubtsovsk, one of the largest producers of TT Energy in Russia, Constructive decisions think over. Gathered willpower into a fist, and went to visit the Cauldron to draw, cut, cook, test. And what I want to say, we got 2 completely new models - we combined best solutions mine and Romina found a compromise. We spent a week without leaving Laptops and Computers from 8:00 to 24:00 at night and made 2 racing models, so far the 2nd one is under production - I decided to lay out the first one, tests on the stand of this boiler in a week.
So here's what I propose: At a price of 80 thousand rubles. I guarantee to make an auger boiler for you, the boiler will have a hopper in the region of 210 liters ... Works on a fraction of nuts (0-50 mm), seeds (15-25), pellets (6-10mm), on wood when using a cast-iron grate on top of the burner . A box for ashes is enough for at least 1 bunker ... The body of the boiler overflows Polish boilers and their "local spill" counterparts. The thickness of the metal used on the body of the boiler will be 3mm. The heat exchanger will not be used horizontal sections- this design of heat exchange surfaces does not require weekly cleaning. The combustion chamber is extended. The boiler is 1.5 meters high.
The boiler is budgetary - there will be no overlays.
All this is not Polish developments - this is mine personal experience practiced...
Boiler name:"Energy AUTO".

The thickness of the metal is 3 mm - both the outer and inner jackets of the boiler, it is possible to make it from thicker metal, or even from stainless steel - then the boiler should be enough for grandchildren. But all this costs extra money, and on the other hand, TT energy boilers are made in Ukraine from 3 mm - for 7 years there has not been a single case of problems with the boiler jacket - and their coal is more aggressive. Corrosion from oxygen in the water is not as bad as corrosion inside the firebox. If in the first case it is possible to achieve longevity by a rare change of coolant, then it can be much unpredictable in the second case. Therefore, in order to avoid condensation in the boiler, we keep the temperature at the outlet of the boiler at least 60 degrees. Well, the fact that some put thicker is a moot point and often this is done for the sake of marketing. Here they say, we are thicker, which means it’s better, fly in))).

At the beginning of the summer, he called for exactly the same help to me, for a model of 30 kilowatts - exactly 10 different boilers were made, several different bunkers, a bunker from 250 liters to 1.5 cubic meters:


This bunker is small, only 600 liters turned out ... This 500 square house, a 30 kilowatt boiler (as calculated, in fact it turned out to be around 45 kW) eats this bunker in exactly 3 days and places for ash in boxes exactly 3 days.

The bunker with loading from the street … small on 400 liters. A pipe is welded from the street to the bunker - pour coal through a funnel, after filling the coal, the funnel is removed and the lid on the pipe is closed.

A couple of pictures production process at the stage of assembling the boiler into one whole from a variety of different parts.

And so we transported 30 kilowatt boilers on weekends, and a stock bunker for a 30 kilowatt boiler for 250 liters.

Several boilers have been installed instantaneous water heater- 2 circuits of 15 meters each ... C at a flow rate of 9 liters per minute - this flow rate is enough for the eyes for the most powerful tropical shower in the shower cabin, and so, the water at the outlet of 50 tons of degrees is obtained when constant expense, at the entrance + 6 + 10 degrees, the temperature in the boiler is 60 degrees.

1.5 cc bunker - also turned out to be a cool machine.
All these boilers are already working ... on houses of 250 square meters and up to 500 tons, all 9 out of 10 pieces.

So my daughter and I spent time in the workshop ... While they were waiting for my mother from work. In welding gloves - it turned out so funny. It didn’t work out to teach her how to cook - probably this is not a woman’s business, as I think

The screw boiler that left for Krasnoyarsk ... Under the Gorynych -1 logo.
We must go to the owner of the cauldron, to preach The cauldron is a worker.

They also managed to indulge ... Did you want to put this boiler on your desk in your office? But the desire to flood it overpowered ... Gave it as an exhibit to the Station Young Technicians in our city.
Video of work:

Gorynych-1 Who went to Kazakhstan... To the city of Karaganda - it turns out that it really exists and I was there

I summarize: All those who took part last time in the manufacture of 30 kilowatt boilers - at cost, were satisfied now it's cold everyone has enough bunker for 3 days, in more warm weather enough for large quantity days. No one has cleaned the heat exchanger yet - we keep statistics on how the first boiler will clog - interesting.
And I was able to pay more or less decent wages to the boys, gained invaluable experience, and I am very pleased - although I did not see any money from the manufacture of these boilers ... Invaluable experience is obtained
There is already some experience, this boiler design works fine on our local coals - but the lack of a normal smoke exhauster engine - spoils the whole "high" - until I find a suitable engine design, I will not make this model.


I will install my own controllers with screens from 2.8 to 7 inches - touch. If the Polish analogues cut off the key when jammed, then this will not happen to me - when jammed, the current reverse will work - and the boiler will try to wedge the screw on its own for some time. Perhaps with such a system - there will be no specific biting of the screw at all ...
Prepayment will be needed 80t.rub. We conclude an agreement, we wait 1-1.5 months.
The boiler will have a full 2 ​​year warranty, for everything and after the end of the warranty, I think everything will be solved in which case.

Thanks to the anomalous zone created by the Siberian boilers in Yakutia, a place has appeared that has long been called the Valley of Death. Despite the development of mankind, today, just like before, tourists, researchers and journalists do not back down from the desire to see and unravel this mystical mystery.

Death Valley and its Siberian boilers

According to the main sources, Death Valley is an anomalous zone, which is located in the valley of the Vilyuy River. This mysterious place is located in the Mirny ulus of the republic to the north of the reservoir. The place got its unusual and terrible name due to the deaths that occurred with hunters from these places. This is where the so-called Siberian boilers.

Local residents, reinforcing their own and their stories real facts, drawings and biography, they tell how in this anomalous zone hunters used some huge bronze cauldrons as an overnight stay, after which terrible things happened to them. Upon arrival home, the hunters became very ill and even died. People saw that if you spend the night in a boiler twice, a person dies in the very near future. But why? What provokes the death of a person in this zone? We will try to answer these and many other questions.

History and secrets

For the first time in history, Death Valley was mentioned back in the middle of the 19th century. The explorer and naturalist, and just a grandiose personality, Richard Mack, told the whole world about it. From 1853 to 1855, he conducted many studies here, including in the basins of such rivers as the Chona, Vilyui and Olekma. In addition to studying the terrain and water bodies, he also spent a lot of time getting to know the local unusual peoples that populate this wild land.

Studying the notes of the researcher, it became known that near the Algyi Timirbit River, which in translation sounds like a drowned large cauldron, there really is an object that resembles a cauldron in its shape. The item is made entirely of copper. Its exact dimensions are unknown, since most of it is in the ground, but it is known that trees and small shrubs grew in the cauldron itself at that time. From this we can conclude that this boiler is simply huge. After Richard published the book, the whole world learned about the unusual place and the cauldron, but no one dared to equip an entire expedition to such a difficult area for the sake of one metal object in the shape of a cauldron.

It is also proved that in 1971 local ufologists documented the story of a local old-timer - a hunter who talked about the terrible Death Valley. He confirmed the fact that between the two rivers Nurgun and Ataradak there is a huge metal container, in which the remains of people in iron robes lie. But not a single local resident will dare to get closer to the boiler or climb into it.

As a rule, not a single tourist dares to do this, the price for ordinary human curiosity can be too high. And, no matter how hard you try to explain all things scientifically, having traveled around the world, you understand that there are holy places and cursed things that cannot be explained scientifically, and rituals of ancient peoples that break all the laws of physics.

How to get to Death Valley

The river is located 103 km from the city of Mirny. Every day a train passes to Vileyka. You can also get there by train or bus. In the anomalous zone, as a rule, tourists take a navigator with them. But remember that all electronic items fail here from time to time.

Solid fuel heating boilers allow you to generate thermal energy by burning various kinds solid fuel: firewood, coal, pellets, peat. This is heating equipment that has stood the test of time.

Such boilers are easy to operate and reliable. Most of them are independent of power supplies and do not require special permission to install them. They can be used as the only heating device, or as a backup source of thermal energy in conjunction with a diesel heating boiler or an electric boiler.

Can be used solid fuel boilers for heating a private house or cottage, including cottages, garages and utility buildings. Their use is especially relevant in areas where it is not possible to connect to the gas supply line or there are power outages.

Solid fuel boilers: main types

Heating solid fuel boilers can vary significantly in terms of operating principles and other parameters. Allocate the following types this equipment:

• allow to receive thermal energy due to combustion of fuel, as a rule, coal or firewood. Heat exchangers of traditional models can be made of steel or cast iron. Cast iron units have a longer service life, while steel units are more resistant to sharp drops temperatures.
• work on wood fuel, which, during combustion, decomposes into gaseous substances and dry residue. These boilers have high efficiency compared to traditional ones.
• represent the most modern designs which are gaining more and more popularity. They are fuel efficient and do not need to be cleaned more than 2-3 times a month. The design of the boiler ensures that the combustion of the upper fuel layer is limited, which makes it possible to load fuel much less frequently - up to 1 time per day.
• are attractive to many owners of private houses with the availability of fuel and the possibility of full autonomy. The rather high cost of such units compared to traditional solid fuel boilers pays off due to the high efficiency of the equipment. A significant disadvantage of these boilers is the significant area occupied by them.
• can significantly reduce the frequency of fuel loading, tk. equipped with a coal bunker and automatic system its supply to the furnace. In addition, coal in such devices is burned under pressure, which makes the process of obtaining thermal energy more productive.

Buy a solid fuel boiler: what to look for

Before you buy a solid fuel boiler for a private house or other premises, you need to analyze the main parameters of its operation and understand how they meet your needs.

• The boiler power is selected based on the parameters specific premises, in particular its area. Approximate calculation required power can be produced, focusing on the indicator: 1 kW is required to heat 10 square meters. m of area with a room height of not more than 3 m.
• The type of fuel the boiler runs on also affects its power and operating time with a single load. As a rule, for each boiler, the manufacturer recommends using certain types fuel, which should be followed for the most effective use equipment.
• The volume of the loading chamber affects the frequency of fuel loading. The larger it is, the less often this procedure will have to be performed.
• The design and installation features of the selected model must comply with the parameters of the room in which the boiler is planned to be installed, in particular, its dimensions. In addition, it is necessary to take into account how convenient it will be to open the doors and clean the boiler. Some models are equipped with a mechanical cleaning function.
• Traction specific. If it is necessary to install the boiler in a room remote from the source of electricity, then it is worth buying a solid fuel boiler operating on natural draft. With available centralized electricity, it is more convenient to use an automatic boiler. Such models are economical and more convenient to use and control, which is carried out using a controller and can even be done remotely.
• Boiler safety also has importance, so you should choose a model equipped with an auto-off function.

Solid fuel boilers, the price of which can vary from the most budgetary to the more expensive options, are designed for a long service life, so it is worth choosing a supplier that produces professional installation, setting heating unit, as well as ready to carry out its warranty service.

The heroes of our today's review - heating boilers manufactured by the NMK plant under the Siberia brand. We will analyze in detail how they compare favorably with competitors and what disadvantages they have.

The Novosibirsk plant "NMK" produces solid fuel boilers "Siberia" of two series "Hephaestus" and "KVO". Let's take a look at each of the models in turn and find out what advantages these devices have among their Russian counterparts.

Steel boilers for wood and coal "Siberia" KVO

The KVO series was specially designed for those who need an inexpensive household boiler for country house or cottages. The manufacturer tried to take into account all the wishes of consumers and create a truly worthy and universal heater.

Photo 1: Boiler with household tiles and block heating element "Siberia" KVO

In total, 5 standard sizes of boilers "Siberia" KVO 10, 12, 15, 20, 25 kW are produced. The main material for manufacturing is heat-resistant steel, but some parts are made of cast iron.

"Siberia" of the KVO series is a classic solid fuel boiler with a water jacket, but still there are a number of features in its design:

• To improve efficiency, a water-tube grate was used. The grate on which the fuel combustion process takes place consists of pipes connected to a water jacket. This further increases the heat removal area and thus the efficiency of the boiler.
• In the combustion chamber, on the way flue gases, are cross beams filled with coolant. As in the case of a grate, this allows you to maximize the use of heat from the burning fuel and send it to the heating system.
• The boiler cover is hob made of steel 12 mm thick with holes of various diameters for installing dishes. In fact, the boiler "Siberia" KVO is a hybrid of a heating device and cooker. It is also convenient to pour coal through these round holes in the lid.
• In addition to heating the coolant using the energy of burning wood or coal, it is possible to install a heating element of 3 kW. It can be used to maintain required temperature in the heating system at night or to prevent the coolant from freezing during short-term departures from the house.

For ease of installation and piping, each size has several options for the location of the flue gas pipe and the pipes of the supply and return lines. For example, branch pipes can be located on the left or on the right wall.

The principle of operation is no different from other traditional combustion devices, such as, for example. Coal or firewood is loaded into the firebox and ignition takes place. solid fuel, burning, heats the coolant in the heat exchanger. Through the supply pipe, the coolant enters the heating system, giving off heat to the premises, and then returns to the boiler.

Consider the main characteristics of the KVO series:

Especially for the site, we asked one of the owners of the Siberia KVO boiler to talk about the experience and nuances of its use, and here is his review:

I installed the boiler "Siberia" KVO 10 TPE in my small country house. I must say right away that the presence of a hob bribed me, and the price for a pensioner is very affordable. I heat with firewood, I have to throw it up about once every 5 hours, they burn out quickly enough. I would switch to coal, but we have problems with it. In principle, I am satisfied with the device, quite acceptable quality for such money.

Igor Nikolaevich, Khabarovsk

As you can see floor standing boilers"Siberia KVO" are ideal for giving, due to the fact that it can be used not only as a heating device, but also as a tile for cooking. And if you visit the dacha only on weekends, heating elements will allow you to avoid freezing of the coolant in your absence.

Domestic heating boilers "Siberia" Hephaestus

Boiler "Siberia" Hephaestus - a novelty in the domestic market heating technology. It has been produced since 2014, but it can already compete with devices that have been on the market for a long time, such as In total, three sizes are available for 15, 20 and 30 kW.

Like any other classic solid fuel boiler, "Siberia" Hephaestus has a firebox surrounded by a water jacket. Under the grate there is a capacious ash box for collecting solid waste. Flue gases are discharged through a pipe at the rear of the boiler into the chimney. In addition to these, in general, standard nodes, there are also some features:

• As a backup source of heating, it is possible to install a heating element for 4 kW. It can be used to stabilize the operation between loads and to heat the heating system in the absence of the owner.
• On the left and right walls of the boiler there are supply and return pipes for ease of installation and piping. The unused branch pipe of the supply line is closed with a plug, and a 4 kW heater block can be installed in the free return pipe.
• To control the combustion process, an optional mechanical draft regulator can be installed. A separate output is provided for its installation on the front panel. The sensor measures the temperature of the water in the boiler and, if necessary, opens or closes the ash pan damper using a long chain.
• To improve efficiency, the grate is filled with water. For the same purpose, beams with a coolant inside the loading chamber are used.
• Under top cover boiler located round hole leading to the furnace. It can also be used to load the boiler with fuel, as well as to install a pan or other kitchen container.
• The casing of the boiler is covered with wear-resistant paint, and a thermometer is located on the front panel for visual control of temperature regime solid fuel boiler.

"Siberia" Hephaestus works in the same way as the usual one. Let's take a closer look at its characteristics:

On the thematic forum, we found a thread with discussions of the Siberia Hephaestus line, and this is what people say about them:

Hephaestus installed 30 kW on the terrace of his country house. House 180 m² of blocks, double-glazed windows. Heats normally, but there is no special heat. Of course, you have to throw up often, one saves the terrace nearby. In short, the device is not without flaws, but for the money, I think it's better not to buy.

Anatoly Vladimirovich, Rostov

In terms of price-quality ratio, "Siberia" Hephaestus is a pretty good model, and is suitable where a budget is needed. heating system not involving heavy loads. In other cases, it is better to buy a more serious boiler.

As a video review, watch a short YouTube video about the Siberia KVO boiler:

We carry out delivery across Russia and the CIS countries. All goods in the company " New town» are sold at the price of the manufacturer's factory.
