No hot water

it does however operate the motor in the 2 port motorised valve

It's a fault somewhere between the three and in terms of trying to keep it simple, relating it to the 2 port operation seems to do that.

Right i'm with you Sammyinnit it has been working fine for a long time i can get my head around the programmer two port valve and cylinder stat what is puzzling me is the need fro the relay beneath the programmer and what is its purpose i never seen one in a system' once i get my head around something i'm not too bad ii installed my own heating system which is a H2 panel with connecting wood boiler' gas boiler and heat exchange mains hot into a thermal cylinder.
 
Hi guys if your still following my post the system is not fully pumped its a c plan and all i want to know it what is the relay contactor thats the only thing that has that has gone wrong because its buzzing all i need to know is what does the relay does thats it i havent had any posts or anything for two days if people who are part of this post don't know then say so i need to get this fixed soon as ffs give me some proper ****ing answers..
 
This looks like a relay that is designed to eliminate backfeed from one channel to another. Similar to a Drayton RB1 or 2. All the abuse in the world will not help you resolving the problem. If it is beyond your comprehension, maybe put your hand in your pocket, or your father's , and employ someone who can solve it.

I Apologise for the ranting had a couple of beers last night its just i have so much on i just wanted to know what the contantactor did then i could change it my Brother in law was one of these electronic wizkids that did things to save a penny or two does it need to be connected or can i bypass it.

Thanks sorry for the swearing.
 
A relay was used when to give independent control of hot water and heating on old gravity hot water/pumped central heating systems rather than having to have the hot water and central heating on together, if you have 2 2 port valves you don't need the relay.
 
Chances are your b-i-l was over egging it, being an electronics engineer, and seeing a potential problem where there wasn't one!

I think the lack of response from regulars on here suggests that none of us can really tell why the fu©k it's there without probing a meter at it. If you're really that stuck and don't want someone in then just take the feckin thing out... What's the worst that can happen? :LOL: you'll fry a component or two or the faulty part will be removed and it'll work.
