Hello, I have a planar 44d-12, thick smoke does not start and error 13 pops up sometimes 8, and when you torment it for a long time, it starts and snorts straight from the muffler. I thought the pump bought a new one, changed the problem, the hair dryer worked for 5 months at most. Tell me what could be?
In any case, you need to clean the burner and the boiler, then check the gap on the impeller of the air blower, as the manufacturers say should be from 0.25 to 0.4mm, a large gap will affect the operation of your heater. Check out our other planar videos to understand how and what to check.
Question Planar 3 kW worked for two years at Kamaz and began to start poorly. It happened from the fourth time, and it happened from the twentieth time it starts up. Rarely, apparently the cotton is inaudible and begins to smell like fumes, apparently the salary has caught up in the cell. The planar worked without interruption if started. But there was a smudge of salary from the bottom of the case (plastic), tell me where to look for a leak of solarium, possible places?

Attention !! The mesh should be installed with an interference fit until it stops. If the mesh is installed not all the way to the end, the heater may fail when starting.
3 Dismantling and replacing the overheating sensor .
The overheating sensor pos. 1 see fig. 7 is used to monitor the heating temperature of the heat exchanger. When the heat exchanger reaches a temperature above 250 ° C, the overheating sensor opens the electrical circuit, and the heater is automatically turned off. The reason for the replacement may be the shutdown of the heater when the heat exchanger temperature is below 250 ° C or for the reasons indicated in table. 4.
To avoid an error when assessing the performance of the overheating sensor, it is necessary to replace it with a serviceable overheating sensor. If with a new
sensor, the cause of the heater malfunction will be eliminated, then the removed sensor is considered inoperative and must be dismantled.
Dismantle the overheating sensor as follows:
- remove the heater from the vehicle;
- unscrew the screws securing the candle cap and remove the protective cap of the candle.
Unscrew the screws securing the casing, remove the casing pos. 4 (see Figure 2).

5 Purpose, dismantling and replacement of the air blower.
The air blower consists of an electric motor with a volute attached, on the shaft of which a fan is installed on one side, and an impeller on the volute side.
An air blower supplies air to the combustion chamber to ensure combustion,
purges the combustion chamber before the beginning and end of the combustion process in order to cool and remove the remaining fuel and moisture,
creates an air flow, which, passing through the radiators of the heat exchanger during the operation of the heater, heats up, and also changes the air flow due to
changes in the speed of the electric motor.
If the electric motor or the impeller fails (the impeller touches the volute), the air blower must be replaced with a new one.
Dismantle the air blower as follows:
- remove the heater from the vehicle;
- unscrew the screws securing the candle cap and remove the protective cap of the candle.

6 Dismantling and replacing the control unit .
The control unit provides control of the heater in conjunction with the control panel.
The control unit performs the following functions:
a) initial diagnostics (serviceability check) of the heater units at startup;
b) diagnostics of the heater units during the entire operation;
- in case of loss of performance of one of the monitored nodes;
- when the parameters go beyond the permissible limits (temperature, voltage);
- when a flame is blown out in the combustion chamber.
When determining the malfunction of the control unit, it is necessary to make sure that all the components of the air heater are in good working order, and then replace
control unit, and if the air heater with a new control unit is operational, then the removed one is considered inoperative and must be replaced.
Dismantle the control unit in the sequence specified in subsection 5.5. When replacing the control unit, installation is carried out in the reverse order.
– Purpose, dismantling and replacement of the combustion chamber .
An evaporative combustion chamber (see Fig. 11) is designed to create and burn an air-fuel mixture.
A sign of failure of the combustion chamber is the failure to start the heater.
(with all other serviceable heater elements), increased CO content (more than 1%), temperature rise (more than 500 ° C) in the exhaust gases, burnout or loss of tightness by the combustion chamber body.
If the combustion chamber fails, it must be replaced.
Dismantle the combustion chamber as follows:
- remove the heater from the vehicle;
- unscrew the screws securing the candle cap and remove the protective cap of the candle.

from the adapter pos. 5 (see fig. 4);
- unscrew the screws (inside the adapter housing) fastening the adapter to the heat exchanger and remove the adapter;
- unscrew the screws securing the combustion chamber to the heat exchanger.
- when replacing the combustion chamber, it is necessary to assess the condition of the heat exchanger, see chap.
- the installation of the camera is carried out in the reverse order; in this case, it is necessary to replace parts 813 and 817 (for gaskets, see Fig. 2).
8 Purpose, dismantling and replacement of the heat exchanger
Heat exchanger pos. 1 (Fig. 12) is designed to transfer heat from hot gases formed from the combustion of the air-fuel mixture to radiators pos. 4 (Fig. 12) which, in turn, transfer heat to the air.
Malfunctions that can occur during the operation of the heat exchanger are loss of thermal conductivity due to the deposition of products
combustion of diesel fuel on the inner walls and fins of the heat exchanger, as well as burnout as a result of non-observance of the rules for operating the heater and, as a result, loss of tightness and release of combustion products into the heated
premises. Dismantle the heat exchanger in the sequence indicated in subsection 5.7, while in order to remove the radiators it is necessary to remove the clamps pos. 5 (see fig 12). It is not allowed to remove the radiators without removing the clamps.
After dismantling, clean the inside of the heat exchanger from carbon deposits and
soot. When replacing the heat exchanger, the installation is carried out in the reverse order; in this case, it is necessary to replace parts 813 and 817 (gaskets) (see Fig. 2). It is not allowed to move the radiators fixed with clamps along the heat exchanger in order to avoid nadirs on its surface.
Purpose, determination of malfunction, dismantling and replacement of the fuel pump.
The fuel pump (Fig. 13) serves for the metered supply of fuel to the combustion chamber.
The main parameters of the fuel pump:
- rated supply voltage - 12 V or 24 V (depending on the heater);
a) 4.5 - 5 ohms (for 12 V fuel pump);
b) 14.5-16 ohms (for 24V fuel pump).
- Possible types of malfunctions of the fuel pump as part of the heater:
a) during the heater start-up, fuel does not flow to the heater fuel pipe and the characteristic knock in the fuel pump is not heard;
b) fuel enters the heater fuel pipe with a delay
(2 start attempts have been exhausted).
5.9.2 Eliminate faults and determine the performance of the fuel pump as follows:
- before eliminating possible malfunctions, it is necessary to check the presence and quality of fuel in the tank;
- make sure that the wiring and connectors are in good condition;
- make sure that the fuel pump works when the heater is turned on and that a characteristic knock is heard from the movement of the piston inside the pump.
It is allowed to remove the fuel pump and shake it (if the characteristic knock is not heard, then the piston may stick inside the pump due to long-term storage or due to failure to perform preventive
measures according to the Operation Manual);
- make sure that the fuel line is tight all the way to the fuel pump and from the fuel pump to the heater;
- check the tightness of the connection between the fuel pump housing and
inlet fitting. Check with air at a pressure not exceeding
1kgf / cm 2. Apply pressure from the inlet and outlet simultaneously. If the connection is not tight, then install the union on a sealant.
If all of the above malfunctions are eliminated, then it is necessary to check the fuel pump for performance. Install the fuel pump in the fuel supply system to the heater heater and the pumping device
Fill the fuel line up to the heater with fuel. Remove the fuel line from the heater fuel tube and place it in a 50-100 ml beaker with a graduation of not more than 1 ml to measure its performance.
Start the heater and check how much fuel the fuel pump will pump into the beaker in two automatic attempts to start the heater. Should the amount of fuel in the beaker be 5.5? 6 ml. If the amount of fuel
is less or more than 5.5 - 6 ml, then replace the fuel pump.
Traditionally, a house, an apartment, an extension, or, in extreme cases, a garage, if it serves as a part-time workshop, needs heating. Both industrial and public premises and even open areas are heated, for example, with the help of infrared heaters.
But in the conditions of a harsh winter, car interiors also need heating: trucks, buses, and the like.
The installation that heats the cab or the driver's workplace with the help of streams of warm air is called an air heater. The design includes a heating element, a pump for supplying diesel fuel, control gear and wires for connecting the elements. The devices are produced by the Russian plant "Planar" (Samara) and are characterized by an affordable price with high efficiency, as evidenced by reviews. The photo shows a car heating installation.
The principle of operation of the Planar air heater is as follows: the fuel mixture is pumped into the combustion chamber. The heat from the combustion is transferred to the heat exchanger. The latter is blown by a stream of air, and then the heated air is supplied to the driver's cab. Combustion products are removed from the car interior, therefore, it is prohibited to use the Planar heater indoors - garage, workshop.
The fuel mixture for the device is diesel fuel obtained from the tank. The heater works in autonomous mode, regardless of the state of the engine.
Each time the heater is turned on, a preliminary test of the overheating sensor, pump status, burner indicator and electrical circuits is carried out. If there is a deviation in the state of the elements according to the instructions, ignition will not be initiated. If the test is successful, the combustion chamber is pre-purged - air is removed from the passenger compartment, the candle is lit, and then a mixture of fuel and combustion air is supplied. Upon reaching normal stable combustion, the candle turns off.
When disconnected, the supply of the fuel mixture is interrupted, the burner is extinguished and the combustion chamber is purged.
The temperature is automatically adjusted according to the set value: from 15 to 30 degrees. When the temperature in the passenger compartment reaches the set value, the device switches to a mode with less heat transfer. If the difference between the parameters is large, the device can activate the ventilation mode, which helps to cool the workplace. When the air temperature drops, the Planar autonomous heater switches to a more active mode. Optionally, the device can be equipped with a remote temperature sensor, which is located in the cab
Installation of the unit is carried out only by specialists.
The device works in stand-alone mode - the engine can be turned off.
Will report low fuel consumption. The latter is fed into the heater from the tank.
The combustion products are discharged from the vehicle interior, providing a clean atmosphere inside.
The device is compact and lightweight - up to 12 kg, depending on the model. At the same time, the cab is heated literally in a matter of minutes. The photo shows a sample.
Affordable cost.
The disadvantages include some limited use - the installation cannot be placed in places where dust accumulates or the accumulation of vapors of flammable substances is possible, and the presence of a battery is also mandatory.
The Planar heater is equipped with several security systems that ensure stable operation of the device and emergency shutdown in case of abnormal operation.
If the startup attempt fails, a second attempt is made by default.If the start-up is still not possible, the device switches off.
In the event of a burner malfunction, the device switches off immediately.
An automatic shutdown is also performed when the heat exchanger overheats. When the current falls or rises, the unit shuts down.
All of the above events are reflected on the control panel by a blinking LED - red or orange, in a specific mode. The instruction contains a decryption of signals, which allows you to quickly establish the cause of the inoperative state, as evidenced by user reviews. The photo shows the control panel.
You can extend the service life of an autonomous heater and significantly reduce repair costs by observing the rules of use recommended in the instructions.
Fuel - It is known that the efficiency of an engine depends on the ambient temperature. It is also recommended to observe certain conditions for the Planar heater. So, at temperatures up to -5 C, diesel fuel 3-0.2 is used, at values from -5 to -20 C, it is advisable to use a mixture of gasoline and diesel fuel, and at lower temperatures - fuel grade A-0.4.
It is recommended to turn on the heater for 5-10 minutes once a month, even when there is no need to heat the passenger compartment. Thus, the appearance of film deposits in the fuel pump is preceded.
The device must not be switched off before the end of the purge phase. Disconnection is possible at any other moment.
Check the battery charge level. If the car is not used for a long time, the Planar heater must be disconnected from the battery.
Do not connect the heater to the electrical circuit of the machine while the engine is running. The device is powered only from the storage battery, regardless of the mass of the vehicle.
Switch off the device when refueling the vehicle.
It is recommended to entrust the repair of the device to specialists. However, judging by the reviews, you can cope with simple malfunctions not related to the burner and damage to electrical parts. The instructions supplied with the device describe in detail the most likely ones.
Quite often, if the recommendations for switching to winter fuel are not followed, the fuel filter becomes waxed. As a result, the Planar device does not turn on. In this case, you should first replace the fuel for the appropriate weather conditions, and check the operation of the fuel intake. If, after cleaning its filter, the Planar heater still does not work, dismantle the fuel supply pump, and, by unscrewing the union, remove the filter. The element is washed in gasoline and blown with compressed air, and then installed in place. At the end of the repair, the fitting should be fixed with sealant. The video shows the filter cleaning process in more detail.
