1Introduction
1.1 Contents and purpose
This workshop manual serves to support trained person­nel in the repair of coolant heaters DBW 160/230/300 /350.
The heater may only be operated with the specified fuel (diesel) and only with the type of electrical connection specified for the respective model.
1.2 Applicability of the manual
The manual is applicable for the heaters listed on the title page. The heaters mainly differ with regard to their techni­cal data (see Section 4).
1.3 Meaning of the warning and safety notices
In this manual, the signal words DANGER, CAUTION and NOTE have the following meanings:
DANGER
This heading is used when incorrect compliance or non­compliance with instructions or procedures may result in injuries or lethal accidents.
CAUTION
This heading is used when incorrect compliance or non- compliance with instructions or procedures may result in damage to components.
NOTE
This headline is used to indicate particularly useful or special information.
1.4 Further documentation to be used
This workshop manual contains all information and in­structions required for the repair of coolant heaters DBW 160/230/300/350. The use of additional documentation is normally not re­quired. If required, the installation instructions and the operating instructions can be used in addition.
1.5 Safety information and regulations
As a rule, the applicable general regulations and instruc­tions concerning accident prevention and work safety must be observed.
"General safety regulations" beyond the scope of these regulations are listed in the following.
The special safety regulations of importance for this manual are indicated in the relevant sections or process descriptions in the form of signal words (warnings, cau­tions, notes).
1.5.1 General safety regulations
For the heaters DBW 160/230/300/350, type approvals according to EC directives 72/245/EEC (EMC) and 2001/ 56/EC (heater systems) have been granted, with the EC approval number:
e1*2001/56*0006xx For installation, primarily the provisions of Annex VII to di-
rective 2001/56/EC must be observed.
CAUTION
Non-compliance with the installation instructions and the notes contained will lead to exclusion of liability by Sphe­ros. The same applies to repairs not carried out by experts or without the use of genuine spare parts. This will result in the invalidation of the General Build-Type Approval of the heater and hence the General Certification (German 'ABE').
The year the heater was initially commissioned must be permanently marked on the type label by removing the relevant year.
The heaters are approved for heating the vehicle engine and the passenger compartment. When the heater is used in vehicles not subject to the StVZO [German road-traffic licensing regulations] (e.g. ships), locally applicable regu­lations must be complied with. The heater may only be installed in vehicles or in inde­pendent heating systems with a minimum coolant volume of 10 litres.

The heater may not be installed in the driver's or passen­ger's compartments of vehicles. If the heater is neverthe­less installed in such a compartment, the installation case must be tightly sealed towards the vehicle interior. From the outside, the installation case must be sufficiently vented so that a maximum temperature of 85 °C in the in­stallation case is not exceeded. If this temperature is ex­ceeded, malfunctions may occur.
DANGER Because of danger of poisoning and suffocation, the heater must not, not even with a timer, be operated in enclosed rooms such as garages or workshops without exhaust-gas extraction systems.
Because of explosion hazard, the heater must be switched off at filling stations and filling systems.
CAUTION Wherever flammable fumes or dust can form (e.g. near fuel, carbon, wood-dust, cereal storage sites or similar), the heater must be switched off due to explo­sion hazard. The heater may not be operated in the vicinity of flam­mable materials, such as dry grass, leaves, cardboard boxes, paper etc.
In the vicinity of the control unit, an ambient temperature of 110°C (storage temperature) must not be exceeded (e.g. when paint work is carried out on the vehicle). If the specified temperature is exceeded, permanent damage to the electronics may occur. When checking the coolant level, proceed according to the vehicle manufac- turer's instructions. The coolant in the heating circuit must contain at least 10% of a brand-name anti-freeze agent.
Additives in the heating circuit may not be aggressive against metals, plastics and rubber and may not cause any deposits.
The opening pressure in the vehicle cooling syst em ­usually indicated on the radiator cap – must range between 0.4 and 2.0 bar allowable working pressure (also applies to separate heating circuits).
1.6 Legal requirements regarding the installation
For installation, primarily the provisions of Annex VII to di­rective ECE R122 must be observed.
NOTE: The provisions of these directives are binding in the area of application of the ECE directive and should also be observed in countries without specific regula- tions!
(Excerpt from directive ECE R122, Appendix VII)
7.1 A clearly visible operation indicator in the operator's field of vision must inform about the heater being switched on or off.

2.1 Combustion air fan
The combustion air fan supplies the air required for com­bustion from the air intake into the combustion chamber.
Heaters are fitted with the following fan types: DBW 160 – side-channel fan, DBW 230 / 300 – radial fan, DBW 350 – two-stage radial fan.
2.2 Motor
The motor drives the combustion air fan via a co up ling and the fuel pump via a gearset.
2.3 Fuel pump
The fuel pump supplies fuel for combustion. It is driven by the combustion air fan motor via a coupling. Inside the fuel pump, the fuel is pressurised to approx. 10 bar (DBW 160
11.5 bar) and is vaporised by the high-pressure atomiser. Fuel supply to the atomiser is controlled by a solenoid valve.

2.3.1 Nozzle-block preheater
The nozzle-block preheater heats the fuel flowing to the high-pressure nozzle.
Heaters without nozzle-block preheaters may show mal­functions at extremely low temperatures. At temperatures < 0° C, the heating element in the nozzle block is actuated via a thermostat.. Heating duration depends on the heat reflected in the combustion chamber, and the heater switches off when the thermostat reaches a temperature of +8° C.
Heaters without nozzle-stock preheaters can be retrofit­ted. For parts required please refer to parts list.
2.4 Heat exchanger
The heat exchanger transfers the heat generated by com­bustion into the cooling system.

2.9 Temperature limiter / Thermal fuse
Temperature limiter
The temperature limiter (bi-metal) protects the heater against excessive operating temperatures. The tempera­ture limiter trips when a temperature of 107° C or 117° C is exceeded, turning off the heater. The temperature limiter is resetable or self-resetting.
Thermal fuse
The thermal fuse protects the heater against excessive operating temperatures. It comprises a fusible link that trips at excessive temperatures, turning off the heater.
Heaters can be retrofitted with temperature limiters replacing the thermal fuses.
2.10 Control thermostat
Control thermostat at heater
After reaching operating temperature, closed-loop opera­tion is performed by the control thermostat. The coolant is maintained at a constant temperature by turning the heater on and off. The thermostat closes at 63 ± 5° C and opens at 70 ± 3° C.
External control thermostat
Closed-loop operation can also be executed by an exter- nal control thermostat.
After reaching operating temperature, closed-loop opera­tion is performed by the control thermostat. The coolant is maintained at a constant temperature by turning the heater on and off. The thermostat closes at 71 ± 2° C and opens at 78 ± 2° C; alternatively at 62 ± 2° C and 70 ± 2° C.
Heaters with energy-conservation function (temperature conservation) may be fitted with a thermostat closing at 35 ± 2° C and opening at 42 ± 2° C.

301
3 Function Description
3.1 General
The heaters are equipped with burners using high-pres­sure atomisers and run in intermittent operation. They are thermostatically controlled (control unit 1553).
3.2 Operation
The heater is switched on and off at the – switch (On/Off) or
– by the timer. Its operating mode is shown by an operation indicator in-
tegrated in the timer or by a separate indicator light. Heaters can be fitted with optional nozzle-block pre-
heaters and heater elements for operatio n at extremely low temperatures.
Operation (see Fig. 301)
3.2.1 Switch on
When the system is switched on, the operation indicator lights up. Combustion air fan, fuel pump and circ ulation pump start. After approx. 15 seconds, the solenoid valve opens and fuel is injected into the combustion chamber via the atomiser. At the same time, a high-voltage ignition spark is generated. When the flame sensor detects a flame, it outputs a signal to the control unit which switches the electronic ignition unit off.
If no flame is detected, please refer to 3.2.4.
3.2.2 Heating operation
After reaching operating temperature, closed-loop opera­tion is performed by the control thermostat.
Coolant temperature is then maintained at a constant level by switching the heater on and off. When the tempe­rature exceeds the upper switch point, the solenoid valve shuts of the fuel supply, causing the flame to extinguish. The combustion air fan then runs on for approx. 150 se­conds, switching off automatically. The circulation pump keeps on running during the burner's off-periods, and the operation indicator remains on. When the temperature falls below the lower switch point, the heater is restarted.
3.2.3 Switch off
When the heater is switched off, combustion is stopped. The operation indicator is turned off, and the purge cycle begins. Combustion air fan and circulation pump are switched off after approx. 150 seconds.
The heater cannot be restarted during purge cycle.
3.2.4 Malfunction cut-out
Heaters with control unit 1553
A malfunction cut-out occurs – if no combustion is detected within approx. 30
seconds after the heater is switched on,
– if the fuel supply is interrupted for more than 10
seconds during heating operation,
– if thermal fuse or temperature limiter detect over-
heating of the heater. The thermal fuse must always be replaced by a fuse of the identical type (observe colour code). Reset the button of the temperature limiter (once the heater has cooled down to below 60° C).
– if undervoltage is detected approx. 10 – 25 seconds
after the temperature falls below the switch point.
Once the cause of the malfunction has been eliminated, the heater can be unlocked by switching it off and back on.

ment ring with the locking bolt until the target value is achieved.
– Torque locking bolt to 1.0 +0.5 Nm an d secure it with
locking compound.
NOTE
The CO
2
setting depends on the fuel (visco-sity) and the height above sea level (0.1% per 100 m). If the CO
2
value cannot be adjusted to target value proceed as follows: – Check air intake side of bur ne r h ead for d ama ge and
replace, if required
– Check fuel pump pressure and replace pump, if re-
quired – Replace atomiser – Measure burner motor speed. – Check wiring conduit grommets for correct installa-
tion.
6.3 Checks of individual components

NOTE
The glass body of the flame sensor and the sight glass (see Fig.) must be cleaned if soiled. In case of damage or if the target value is not reached, the flame sensor must be replaced.
6.3.1.1 Check of flame sensor at control unit 1553
– Connect ohmmeter to flame sensor – Black out the flame sensor. Push on a piece of black
insulating hose and pinch its ends
– After approx. 20 seconds the resistance must inrease
to > 100 k-Ohm
– Expose the flame sensor to the light of a match lit
approx. 1 cm away. The resistance must drop to approx. 300 Ohm.

6.3.2 Check and adjustment of ignition electrodes
NOTE
• The ignition electrodes' insulation bodies may not
show any signs of damage. Ignition electrodes with an electrode gap outside the tolerance range or incor­rectly functioning ignition electrodes must be adjusted or replaced.
• Ignition electrode gaps can be adjusted using the
gauge. The gauge's front edge must contact the atom­iser with the tips of the ignition electrodes resting in the two notches.
Check
– Check the ignition electrodes' insulation bodies for
signs of damage.
CAUTION
In order not to disturb fuel a tomisation , the atomizer bore must not be touched while measuring the electrode gap.
– Check electrode gap using the g auge as shown in the
fig. and check the condition of the electrodes.
Adjustment
– Adjust gap by bending electrodes and verify using the
gauge as shown.
6.3.3 Check of electronic ignition unit
WARNING
High voltage; the spark generated at the ignition elec­trodes has a voltage of approx. 8,000 volts.
CAUTION
Never apply voltage to the electronic ignition unit without the ignition electrodes being installed.
Check
NOTE
Connect the positive pole of a DC power supply to the black line and the negative pole to the brown line.
– Apply a DC voltage of 12 or 24 volts. – Target condition: Spark-over between ignition elec-
trodes.
6.3.4 Check of fuel pump
NOTE
The fuel pump is checked when installed. Pump-pressur e adjustment is permissible.
Testing requires a testing device. Testing devices (0 to 15 bar display range) are available from Spheros main dealers.
CAUTION
The electronic ignition unit must be removed.
Check
– Remove electronic ignition unit (see 9.2.7.1). – Remove atomiser. – Install testing device. – Cover flame sensor. – Turn on heater. – Pump pressure is indicated after ap prox. 15 secon ds
(see diagram). – Turn off heater. – Remove testing device.
CAUTION
Do not damage atomiser bore. – Screw in atomiser nozzle and tighten to 20 Nm.

– Install electronic ignition unit (see 9.2.7.2).
6.3.5 Check of burner motor
NOTE
The combustion air fan is checked when installed. T he fan motor must be replaced if the target conditions are not achieved.
Check
– Check bearings of burner motor (mu st be freely run-
ning). – Measure input voltage at heater – Turn on heater. – Measure speed (at nominal voltage, the spe eds must
be within the specified ranges).
DBW 160 .......4050 – 4950
DBW 230 .......5220 – 6380
DBW 300 .......5220 – 6380
DBW 350 .......5040 – 6160
6.3.6 Check of solenoid valve
NOTE
Longer periods of smoke emission during run-down is an indication of a leaking solenoid valve seat. In this case fuel trickles from the atomiser. A short period of smoke emission is normal. This is caused by the fuel draining from the space between sole­noid valve and atomiser bore.
Check
CAUTION
Disconnect the connector of the solenoid valve at the control unit. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage of the control unit.
– Check electric function of 12-volt devices using the
following data:
• Opening voltage 8.5 volts
• Operating voltage 9.6 ... 14.4 volts
• Power consumption at
• nominal voltage and 20° C 10 watts
• nominal current 0.83 ampere – Check electric function of 24-volt devices using the
following data:
• Opening voltage 17.0 volts
• Operating voltage 19.2 ... 28.8 volts
• Power consumption at
• nominal voltage and 20° C 10 watts
• nominal current 0.42 ampere
6.3.7 Check of nozzle-block preheater
NOTE
At temperatures of < 0° C the thermostat activates the heater element inside the nozzle block. The heating dura- tion depends on the reflection heat in the combustion chamber and is switched off at +8° C at the thermostat. The power consumption is 130 ±13 watts at 12 volts or 24 volts.
Check
– Swing away or remove the burner head. – Disconnect connector from nozzle block. – Connect ohmmeter to connector. – Chill thermostat using freeze spray or bridge it. – Resistance (max. 4.5 Ω).

8 Service and Maintenance
8.1 General
This section describes permissible service work on in­stalled heater systems.
8.2 Heater servicing
As long as the heater is in operation or in run-down mode, the battery main power supply must not be disconnected to prevent the heater from overheating and, as a result, the overheat protection from being triggered. When extensive repair work is carried out, it is advisable to remove the heater. When work on the heating circuit has been carried out, a coolant mixture consisting of water and anti-freeze agent must be refilled according to the manufacturer's instruc­tions and the heating circuit must be bled.
8.3 Vehicle servicing
CAUTION
In the vicinity of the heater, a temperature of 85° C must by no means be exceeded (e.g. when paint work is carried out on the vehicle).
8.4 Heater test run
The heater must not, not even with a timer, be operated in enclosed rooms such as garages or workshops without exhaust-gas extraction systems.
8.5 Maintenance work
To ensure the functional reliability of the heater, the fol­lowing maintenance work must be performed:
• The openings of the combustion air intake line an d the exhaust outlet must be checked for soiling and cleaned.
• Outside the heating period, the heater must be oper- ated with a cold vehicle engine every 4 weeks for 10 minutes, with the heating temperature set to "warm". This helps to prevent difficulties during start-up.
• When replacing the coolant for the vehicle engine, take care to bleed the heater and the circulation pump properly after the vehicle cooling system has be en bled. Refill coolant as specified by the vehicle manufac­turer.
• At least once a year, with heavily contaminated fuel more often, the fuel filter or the filter insert must be re­placed to prevent malfunctions.
• When leakage occurs, the fuel pump and the fuel lines must be replaced immediately, otherwise every 5 years.
• The heater should be checked by a Spheros service workshop at regular intervals, at the latest at the be­ginning of a heating period.

DANGER
The electronic ignition unit is operated at high voltage. Danger! Ensure that the wiring harness connectors are disconnected from the control unit before swinging open the burner head. Reconnect the connectors once the burner head is swung closed again.
NOTE
The heater is maintenance-friendly. Swinging the burner head
1
) open grants access to the following components: – Fuel pump and atomiser nozzle – Solenoid valve – Electronic ignition unit – Ignition electrodes – Flame sensor – Combustion chamber – Nozzle-block preheater (if installed) – In DBW 160, ensure correct fit of the cable grommets
To achieve the required opening angle, the electrical con-
nections may have to be disconnected.

8.6 Visual inspections / installation instructions
8.6.1 Connection to the vehicle's cooling system
The heater must be connected to the vehicle's cooling system as illustrated in Fig. 802. The minimum amount of coolant required in the circuit is 10 litres. As a rule, the coolant hoses supplied by Spheros must be used. Otherwise, hoses in compliance with DIN 73411 or better must be used. The hoses must be routed without any kinks and - to ensure proper bleeding of the heater ­in an upward pitch, if possible. Hose connections must be secured with clamps against slipping off. NOTE: The tightening torques of the hose clamps used must be observed.
In the vehicle's cooling system or a separate heating cir­cuit, only pressure-relief valves with an opening pressure of min. 0.4 bar and max. 2.0 bar may be used. Prior to initial start-up of the heater or after replacement of the coolant, proper bleeding of the cooling system must be ensured. Heater and lines must be installed to en su re static bleeding of the system. Proper bleeding can be identified by almost noise-free op- eration of the circulation pump. Poor bleeding may result in the tripping of the resettable temperature limiter or the thermal fuse while the heater is in operation. When circulation pump U 4855 / Aquavent 6000C is used, a low coolant level or a blocked pump impeller will cause the circulation pump to be shut off automatically approx. 15 seconds after activation. The circulation pump can be restarted after approx. 2 minutes. When circulation pump U 4856 / Aquavent 6000SC is used, a low coolant level or a blocked pump impeller will cause the circulation pump to be shut off autom atica lly approx. 45 seconds after activation. The circulation pump can be restarted after approx. 2 minutes.
8.6.2 Connection to the vehicle's fuel system
Fuel is taken from the vehicle's fuel tank or a separate fuel tank.
8.6.2.1 Fuel lines
To prevent trapped air, fuel lines must be routed in an upward pitch, if possible. Connections within the fuel lines must be secured by hose clamps unless mechanical threaded joints are used.
If fuel hoses are used, only the hoses supplied or offe red by Spheros must be used. Any other fuel hose must comply with DIN 73379 as a minimum. Fuel hoses must neither be kinked nor twisted and must be fastened with clamps at intervals of approx. 25 cm.
Materials commonly used in vehicle construction may also be used as fuel lines, taking into account the respec­tive joining techniques.
As a rule, the following points must be observed when routing fuel lines:
• Lines must be protected against heat
DANGER
When the system overheats, the outer shell of the heater can reach the ignition temperature of diesel fuel!
• Lines must be protected against stone chipping
• Dripping or evaporating fuel may neither collect nor be ignited by hot components or electrical equipment.
It is not permissible to install a shut-off device in the return line!
CAUTION
Operating the heater with closed return line will result in damage to the fuel pump. Fuel may escape. Fire hazard.
Freely suspended lines must be secured to prevent them from sagging. It is not permissible to install an additional fuel pump. See Section 1, Page 102. for legal re qu ire m en ts.

• Max. permissible line length per suction and return line: 10 m
• Max. permissible suction height: 2 m
• Max. permissible supply pressure: 0.3 bar.
8.6.2.2 Fuel filter
Fuel filters supplied or approved by Spheros must be in­stalled (observe flow direction). To avoid malfunctions, the filter or filter insert must be replaced before the begin­ning of each heating period.
8.6.3 Combustion air supply
Combustion air may by no means be extracted from spaces in which persons are present. The combustion air intake opening may not point in the direction of trav el. It must be positioned in a location where it cannot become clogged with soil or snow and draw in splash water. The combustion air inlet must not be positioned above the exhaust-gas outlet. When the heater is installed in a joint installation space near the vehicle's fuel tank, combustion air must be drawn in from outside the vehicle and the exhaust gas must be routed to the outside. Lead-through openings must be protected against splash. If the heater is placed in an enclosed installation case, a ventilation opening is required:
DBW 160 / 230 / 300 30 cm
2
DBW 350 35 cm
2
If the temperature in the installation case exceeds the per­missible ambient temperature of the heater (see technical data), the ventilation opening must be enlarged after prior consultation with Spheros.
8.6.4 Exhaust pipe
The exhaust-pipe end may not point in the direction of travel. The exhaust-pipe end must be positioned in a location where it cannot become clogged with soil or snow. Only rigid pipes made of unalloyed or alloyed steel with a minimum wall thickness of 1.0 mm or flexible pipes of alloyed steel must be used as exhaust pipes. The exhaust pipe must be fastened to the heater e.g. by means of a clamp. See legal requirements for further specifications.
Permissible exhaust-pipe dimensions: – Inner diameter:
DBW 160: 38 mm DBW 230 to .32 / DBW 300 to .15: 80 mm DBW 230 from .33 / DBW 300 from .16: 70 mm DBW 350 70 mm
– Max. permissible line length:
5 m without combustion air intake extension
– Total length of combustion air inta ke and exhaust pipe
max. 5 m
– Max. permissible bending: 270°
NOTE
If the exhaust pipe is routed near temperature-sensitive components it must be insulated!
Alternatively, an exhaust-gas bypass approved by Spheros must be installed.

8.8 Start-up
After installation of the heater, the coolant circuit and the fuel-supply system must be carefully bled. The vehicle manufacturer's instructions must be observed during the procedure. During the test run, all coolant and fuel con­nections must be checked for sealing tightness and firm fit. Should the heater switch into malfunction mode during operation, troubleshooting must be performed (see Section 5).
8.8.1 Bleeding the coolant circuit
NOTE
Bleeding must always be performed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The circulation pump must not be switched on for the bleeding process.
Set the vehicle heating system to "warm" and refill coolant which must consist of a mixture of water and at least 10 % anti-freeze agent (on glycol basis) (corrosion protection). The use of pure water will not provide any corrosion pro­tection and, due to the lower boiling point of water, may result in a partial loss of coolant in the event of overheat­ing, requiring coolant to be refilled. Only coolant additives may be used that are not aggressive against metals, plas­tics and rubber and that do not cause any deposits.
Run the vehicle engine at high idle until the cooler thermo- stat is open. Shut off vehicle engine and check coolant level, refill coolant, if required.
Switch on the heater and the vehicle's heate r fan while the vehicle engine is shut off. After a certain cooling period, the heater must automatically start and then shut itself down again. If no restart occurs, the temperature limiter on the heater was tripped because the heater has not been bled properly. Reset temperature limiter (by pushing the button on the temperature limiter) and repeat com­plete bleeding procedure.
NOTE
The heater can be equipped with an automatically reset­ting temperature limiter. In this case manual reset is not applicable.
8.8.2 Bleeding the fuel-supply system
When the heater is switched on, the fuel pump draws in fuel, filling the heater's entire fuel supply system.
If no combustion occurs after the first start-up, the heater must be switched off and switched on again.

9.1.2.1 Installation of the nozzle-block preheater
General
The nozzle-block preheater serves to heat the fuel flowing to the atomiser nozzle. At extremely low temperatures, malfunctions may occur in the above mentioned heaters if they are not equipped with nozzle-block preheaters.
At a temperature of < 0° C, the heating element in the nozzle block is actuated via a thermostat. The heating du ­ration depends on the heat reflected in the combustion chamber and the heater switches off when the tempera­ture at the thermostat is +8° C .
If no nozzle-block preheater is installed in the heater, it can be retrofitted according to the following procedure.
The following spare-parts kits for the heaters listed above are available for retrofits:
• 12 V heaters with control unit 1553, order no. 968 89A
• 24 V heaters with control unit 1553, order no. 989 71A
