Hi guys and Gals,
I currently have a three port diverter valve on my central heating system, its a SIEMANS MA-V322C, it seems the motor is playing up as the motor makes a horid clicking noise when trying to open and adjust the vavle.
I can remove the motor and manually open and close the valve to allow use of the heating or hot water as required.
Ive found a replacement motor valve kit, howver the replacement only come with a two wire connection. and the old one has a three wire connection, one is an earth wire, but the new one doesnt have this.
The old motor is a 230-240V AC 50Hz 6w and the new is a 230V 50Hz 5w. I cant see that being a propblem, but im concerned about the missing hearth.
The new motor has the two wires to "Spade" conectors, and the old has a triangular molded plug with each connector to each corner.
Any advice on best practice to replace this would be great... Should i look out for a motor kit with a earth? and im thinking ill be fine to connect the "Spade connectors" to the wires coming from the molded Plug if i cut this clear frm the old motor. Any way appart from metering the wires to tell which connector would be Live/Nutral... or do thee systems work on either polarity?
Hope that all makes sence... I can post pics if required.
Rgds
