How to change the pump on a Riello Rdb Burner
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Changing the pump on a Riello Rdb Burner is quite easy to do. I changed this pump on the bench and tested the burner afterwards.
All you need is a flat head screw driver a 12 mm spanner a 15 Spanner and a pressure guage so you can set the pump to 8 bar.

Thanks for taking the time to make this informative video, it’s a great help for my boiler problems 👍
Great video Gerry awesome burner
Great video Gerry ..... I find these videos more interesting than the discovery channel...
I'd love to see ya do more on this particular burner. A service perhaps !!
Gerry... Really informative videos. Thanks for putting these together!!!
awesome burner Gerry
Fantastic Tutorial Gerry, So helpful Thanks for this video.
My 3 lb poodle could be fed for a week and a half with that size dog food tin. Love the vids
Hi Mikey My dog is 50% poodle and 50% golden retriever .. Golden Doodle.. and 50lbs weight. She will make nice clean cans at a rate of 1 per day. My burners are more efficient lol. Thanks for the comment Cheers Gerry
Brill. Ta for providing this. 👍
Great video. Thanks
Gerry, I traced the fault to a lack of electrical power to the burner, a wire had pulled out in the dual thermostat on the Amanda boiler. The thermostat screws are very rusted and getting at the connections is not easy. How are these thermostat units fixed to the boiler and how can they be removed/replaced? I can find nothing online about them, nor details of the Amanda boiler which I presume is obsolete... Many thanks for your great videos - very helpful!
Very hard to see where the 3 screws are but a nice video, thanks 👍
Hi
I have a 3 year old Riello burner it’s wrecking my head firing up fine heats the water & rads for half an hour doesn’t lockout keep running with no flame it’s clicking trying to lite flame but can’t for about another half hour fires back up again had 2 burner guys down changed a number of things still not working
My boiler not cutting in. But when I give the fan a spin it fires up. What do you think may be the problem? Pump. Or Solenoid ???
Can't find a pressure gauge that'll fit the the thread, is it 10mm?
Hey Gerry how much was the pump ?
I changed it, I cleaned the filter, but it is still the same. Please help me, thank you.
Hi Gerry, I ran out of kerosene and have bled the riello rdb burner. It won’t fire up
I remember this happened before and I found on UA-cam a way of resetting the burner where it try’s ignite 3 times in one cycle before faulting. How to I do this?
Hi Graham. Usually the burner is fine but the line is airlocked. There are a couple of ways to approach this. you can clear the line back into the the oil tank using low pressure compressed air. You will need to open the vent screw on the burner and blow the oil back into the tank. Make sure that you are not messing with the pressure screw. If you can wait I will have a video on this later in the week. Hope this helps Cheers Gerry
You need to get yourself tiger gloves😉
Great bit of info / well done and thanks . Where can I get a gauge to measure the pressure and is it always 8 bar for all kerosene burner ( eg domestic reillo burners )?
yes ,could you do a video on making up a presser gauge ,thanks donegal
Hello sir i have a question my reillo fires for 20 minutes after that it wont turn on what do you think i need to do ?
Great vid. I have a problem with mine where it will fire up could be for 1 min or 5 mins of running then it shuts off for about a min. then it will fire back up again or sometimes it does not fire up again. i have to turn it off leave it for a bit then fire it up again. I have changed the fuel filter fuel nozzle and the electodes. still no good. any advise would be great
Give it a long bleed,,,,make sure all connections are tight and not sucking air
Hi Gerry, interesting video. Do you think one of these burners would be suitable to make a small waste incinerator or for using in a small casting furnace ? Love to hear your comments. Thanks.
I've seen a setup like that. An incinerator on a farm. It did use these burners. I remember it because I was asked to repair it, but never did take the job on in the end.
next video convert it to waste oil
Have these pumps a fixed output eg 6 bar or can they be adjusted upwards to convert to diesel or whatever Gerry. Or do you fit an uprated pump.
Hi gerry can you use a 50/50 mix of waste oil and kerosene in one of them burners. Or would it not work. Kerosene gone expensive in Ireland now. Just looking for a way of using up some waste engine oil thanks.
Hi Ross. The nozzle would have a hard time with the engine oil and would clog and the air mix would suffer because of the inconsistent fuel. A different setup can burn it though but would require a different burner and compressor. Cheers Gerry
Thanks.
Anyone know is the solenoid on these for the oil pump 12v or 24v
I could kick myself. My riello burner packed up Saturday morning, I used the manufacturer troubleshoot table and googled advice and ended up changing the photocell, the nozzle, the controller and cleaned up without removing the electrodes. I had a spare pump but wasn't confident until I saw you do it. I also don't have the oil pressure gauge. Is the gauge a made up test jig or something you knocked up?
I have to say you made a brilliant video. I just wish I had seen it 24hrs ago, my heating may have been running by now. Having to get an engineer out. Depressing.
PS, have you done a vid showing how to change the electrode set and set them up??
heres a crazy question, i just had a beckett burner out of my old boiler that cracked in half. could i effectively take the burner and stick it in a barrel for a garage heater?
Boosted Moose im trying to do that now but im still rebuilding a stuck pump
Yes why not.
Great vids but you need to zoom in on the screws/parts etc that you are talking about. Its not that easy if we cant see the exact screw/ bolt etc.
Thanks Leo. Have better equipment now. Will try get better closeups Cheers Gerry👍
I've watched all your vidios Jerry and followed you for a long time, but you've made a big mistake with this, I know you do this for a living just like I do, but I have to say that you haven't thought about this mate, there will be hundreds of oil engineers in Ireland and England thinking the same as me if they see this, showing this to the public is fine but you've missed the most important thing, the bloody spark won't make you jump a bit, it's direct from the transformer you touch it your dead, please address this straight away you and I know this because we do it every day the public don't, you have to be so careful what you put out there Jerry, love your vidios mate but please anyone got hurt not knowing this you would never forgive your self.
Alan.
Ok, how many amps is it? It is the voltage that makes it jump the gap, but in an engine there is almost no amperage. It is the amperage that can be dangerous.
If it is coming through a transformer, doesnt the amperage go down as the volts go up? Im just askin because not all sparks are life threatening...so please explain.
SLRS I can’t tell you what the voltage is, but I can say many years ago when I did my training on oil boilers I was told be very carful as the voltage can easily kill.
@@pearcemachineshop5200 Alan, you intentions are probably pure, but I am thinking of the shock you get from a gas engine ignition spark, which will certainly get your attention real fast, but probably won't hurt you unless you have a pacemaker. So, in the sense of safety, I personally would like to know just how dangerous this is...if only to satisfy my own curiosity. At the same time, where I come from, you don't openly accuse a man of negligence (the nice way of putting it) and then respond with "I don't know" when asked for details. So, do you know, or did you just throw Jerry under the bus? Please provide references. ...and I was asking about the amperage, but voltage would be interesting too.
@@slrs3908 I would have to look it up, as for Jerry I think the guys done a great job and I've no intention of throwing him under the bus so to speak his oil burners have been great and that's an understatement, I mean no offence to any one least of all Jerry, I'll see what I can find out, but I will say the guy that taught me seamed to know is stuff if you know what I mean, the transformer ups the power considerably in order to make a very big spark, kerosean if not as easy to ignight as petrol as you know, hope that helps a bit.
Alan.
Seem Ecoflam!
thank you, it's too helpful, thank you too much
Hi Gerry can I ask a quick question. So our RDB has a leaky pump. When the engineer fits a new one he adjusts the pump to 7bar. As soon as he set the new pump to 7bar it leaks from the adjuster?? He has tried 3 new pumps. Riello aren’t much help?? Any ideas?? It’s a Grant 50/70 unit about 22 years old. It functions very well. Many Thanks
Hello Gerry
Another great video. Have you ever considered making a video on converting one of those burners to run on waste veg oil? my buddy and I have been experimenting with this in our shop furnace with beckett burner....would love to see a video or 2 from you on this....all your other videos are great...keep them coming please.
I did do a conversion a few years ago, just to see if it could be done :-) ua-cam.com/video/oLZxSI3rKKg/v-deo.html
HEi! Are you familiar with oilon burners and suntec pumps ? my pump does like 11 bars. And i cant fine anywhere info about the proper settings. Thanks
Gerry your are a wizard love your videos
Great stuff Gerry, thanks for the video :)
Hi Ian Thanks for the comment Cheers Gerry
Most comprehensive instruction I ever see to date on oil burner troubleshooting ❤😮
Hello Gerry your videos are very informative excellent.
I've a Riello 40 g3 oil burner. The problem is it won't fire up anywhere below 2 degrees outside tempature and now recently it takes 3/4 resets to get it going, it's also just started making a humming noise when running, any ideas ?
Been serviced last year new pump , capacitor, and control box and jet.
Just wondering why you never checked the capacitor for the pump, before replacing the pump?
Hi Gerry, my heater stopped today and i discovered that my wife ordered gas oil (diesel) rather than kerosene. But before killing her, want to know if there is any how to run this heater on diesel? Thanks very much and great video!
very useful video, thank you, and you explained very well.
Thanks for commenting Cheers Gerry
Gerry.. put a new pump on RBL 40 and its seems to be getting extremely hot ( just the pump ) ... running on Kero. Is this due to a pressure issue ?
What caused the pump to give out I had brand new pump fitted about 6 months ago went on me again
Have you a link to a pressure gauge Gerry? My pump went (water in the oil) and she needs tuned up.
Great video ...thanks .....just 1 question, I note that you have this connected to a domestic three pin plug, there are 4 wires in the cable how are these set upin the domestic plug? Cheers
Gerry. Greetings from Galway. Do you have any videos regarding tigerloop installation. Many thanks Brendan
Gerry, what do you use to suck oil line through? Can you do a video on it lol
What was wrong with the old pump?
Great video Gerry. Used it to change my pump but on pressure test the pressure goes to about 15 bar during venting and drops to zero once boiler fires. Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Why havnt you rep[lied Gerry
8 bar equals 116 psi
Fix your camera
my boiler keeps losing prime
well done Gerry well explained
Gerry, can you please elaborate on your home made oil supply and how you made it and using which parts...I’m very intrigued.
Hi Lewis. In this video I just used a dog food tin but I made a video where I converted a 5 gallon plastic drum to do the same job. All the fittings are the same. ua-cam.com/video/YhOzBaDp_LY/v-deo.html Hope this helps Cheers Gerry 👍👍
any chance to fix pump ? or only new one needed ? Thanks
The outside of the pump contains a very fine mesh filter screen,situated behind the pump endplate.Pump won't generate enough pressure if it's blocked.
Gerry, there are several videos on UA-cam concerning the very cheap Chinese van night heaters based on the Espacher design. They seem to work well and have quite sophisticated control systems. Just wondering if you had come across one as at only £130 it's very tempting!!
Richard
Richard Turner id love to see Gerry reveiw one then modify it to burn waste oil
Those are cool, I'm going to get one. Haven't heard a had thing about em. Although getting it to run on waste oil would probably be impossible, so small of a burner.
@@volvo09 I don't think there is any point. We
Gerry, In the U.S. A very small percentage of homes use Kerosene or even Oil as fuel to heat the house. I did a little research. Maby 2% use Kerosene and about 5% Fuel Oil. The majority use Natural gas or electricity. I do enjoy your posts tho. Thanks.
Hi Stanley. Thanks for the info. Here in Ireland Kero and diesed are popular in rural locations and gas in many cities. Air sourse heat pumps are getting more popular here now as there is an energy requirement on new homes. I will be making a waste oil burner soon with some parts from one of these burners but I have a lot to get through first. Appreciate your comment Cheers Gerry
I live in the new england region, and many homes are oil around here, although the more populated regions tend to have more Nat gas.
Basically everyone inn new england not in a city burns oil. Only seen gas in a few basements my whole life in Maine.
Hi Gerry, wish I had watched this before stripping down my burner and replacing the fuel pump possibly unnecessarily (I did not bleed it thoroughly first). Could you help identify a suitable pressure gauge to buy? I saw someone else had asked for this before too.
Also, in the video where you create one working burner from 3 scrap ones, towards the end, you show how to adjust the amount of air, and mention that you will demonstrate how to use this when the burner is in the boiler so that you can ensure you have a clean blue flame. I cannot find the video where you show how to do this? I am assuming there is somewhere that I can gain access to see the flame, and then adjust the screw to optimise the burn. Could you describe where I can get this view?
Thanks for your help!
My old reillo will not start. Just giving a buzz sound . I suspect the motor is at fault . Capacitor and control box is changed so I have eliminated that so far . Any advice . Fan will turn by hand so its not seized ...
Hi Gerry.. If there is no purging noise from burner prior to pump changeover... What could be wrong.. Motor or fan I'm thinking.. Tia
Gerry, I have a Riello RDB burner the same.. When switch heating on at the wall it doesnt do anything not even bring fan on unless you press the reset button on burner then you get the suction sound & it fires up.. Itl only manage say 20 mins or 45 if your lucky of an on / off cycle burning then stops & doesnt come on again.. So say if you left the house at 1pm with it on and came in at 6 itl be freezing. We have to keep going outside and pressing reset every 30 minutes or so to keep heat in the radiators in the house. What would be the issue ? Is it wrong pressure ? Faulty pump? Solenoid? Checked & cleaned the photocell is ok & the burner is getting oil feed ok i think to be fair the feed flexi pipe hooks back on itself before it goes into the burner but not sure if thats an issue? Be great if you could advise then il know what part to buy and fit before this cold weather hits us .. Good man yourself 👍
Thank you
Hi what if your getting no spark and then goto lock out. The electrodes are set correctly. Would a faulty pump keep if from sparking, or a faulty relay coil. If get no spark would it be more common for the control box to be gone. Thanks
Very good video, where would i get one of those gauges and fittings
Gerry, I didn't need to change my pump. But seeing what you were doing and identifying the various components meant I could investigate and solve the issue I was having with my RDB burner. Thanks.
Gerry.. We use some kind of the same burner but we are using diesel, I tried to mix it with waste oil but there were a lot of smoke and the burner stop working because the injectors stucked of the dirty oil despite that I used filters before feeding..... Do you have any idea how to make it working on waste oil.... I found some kind of a russian burners, and here is the link how to make it ua-cam.com/video/BN6Q8YZD2II/v-deo.html and here how does it works ua-cam.com/video/a37Uz3E5sGg/v-deo.html
Hi Gerry how do you work out the pressure you need to set for oil nozzle Danfoss .50X80 EH thanks for your video
Thanks gerry. I'm having this exact problem with my burner so now I know how to change pump il be back up and running shortly
Excellent video Gerry. What pressure gauge are using? Can anyone recommend a decent quality one that’s not too expensive?
Great video. On the oil pressure gauge, is the side thumb screw for bleeding and the top to allow oil through to the pressure gauge?
Good video, how did you know it was the pump and not a problem with the solenoid not opening, cheers
Have you come across a riello 2.2 burner from igniting it locks out after a few seconds. Chris
Whats you're qualifications regarding boilers?
Have you done one on changing the water pump on riello 40 Gerry cheers
Thanks Gerry brilliant explanation and walk through 👍🏼
Great burner video. Thanks
Another great video Gerry, thanks.
Thanks for the help it saved me a call out fee
thanks Gerry , a great help to me 👍
One of the best videos I have seen on you tube
if a pump is bad will it hold prime?
Brilliant video.
Great video
My motor isn't running although when I move it a little it feels like it's trying. I've stripped the burner and there seems to be the same resistance on the pump and the motor with neither very free but easyish to turn which do you think is the problem? Or could it just be the capacitor? Note there was a bit of a screeching from it when it was running before 🤷🏻♂️
Motor startup cap is bad probably.
Good job
Thanks very much for your vids, this one was just what I needed. About to replace the pump on my Riello burner.
Take it your no longer alive then
wel done
Very nice
Fair play Gerry, this Video got me going again. allowed me do the job with ease👍
Hi Donal. That's great to hear. Well done on getting your burner sorted. Cheers Gerry👍
Hi Gerry..could I ask you where you bought the pressure gauge for the burner...Alan in galway...great video by the way
Hi Alan. I bought that one in Heat Merchants and I am sure you have one there in the West. Love Galway Thanks for commenting Cheers Gerry
@@GerrysDiy thanks a million Gerry for the reply...keep up the great work.
Hi Gerry, hope your keeping safe. I have an rdb burner and have changed pump, photocell, and had it serviced. Yet its still not running right. Solenoid is the last part I can think of is it difficult to change.
Thanks in advance. Dan
Hi Daniel. Really easy to change the solenoid. Just a thumbscrew and a couple of spade connectors. Check out my recent video on rebuilding a Riello burner ua-cam.com/video/dqBC6369xRg/v-deo.html Hope this helps. Cheers Gerry 👍👍
Thanks very much Gerry. I'll get one tomorrow. 👍👍
@@danielgilroy267 Daniel. There's a rough test you can do on the solenoid to see if it is working. Take the solenoid off but leave it electrically connected and place a metal screw driver inside the hole. Power on the burner and when the solenoid gets powered it snould become magnetic. You will feel resistance when you try to move the screwdriver. If you have a meter you should get 100 Ohms
resistancehe +/- 5 . Check for resistance with the solenoid plugged out of circuit. Hope this helps good luck Check this out bit.ly/2LIkzCD Cheers Gerry 👍
I think I have the same issue except my burner runs for about 2 minutes stops tries to ignite again and then fails. I see oil flow and igniter trying to ignite the oil flow but it fails and resets. Could this be a faulty pump is it not providing enough kerosene
