    Workshop Manual—HL30/38/65/95/125 Model Air Heaters Introduction The HL series of Webasto Air Heaters were manufactured from the 1960’s and as a result formed a large proportion of Webasto Heating Installations within the UK at that time. The heaters were solidly designed using well proven technology, and as such have a reputation for rugged reliability and ser- viceability.
  • Page 4: Operating Principles

    Workshop Manual—HL30/38/65/95/125 Model Air Heaters Operating Principles The principle of operation for all heaters is similar. Figures 1, 2 and 3 refer to model HL30, minor differences with other models are discussed separately. When the heater is turned on, power is switched to the glowplug (2). This pre-heats the combustion chamber in it’s vicinity.

    HL9511 were introduced in about 1983. At this time, all external wiring components were re- designed, made smaller, and incorporated beneath a single black external cover. The HL30 remained unchanged. The main modifications were as follows (see fig 7).

    9 & 10. Ventilation Ventilation is an option on all heaters, both SA and FA. On the HL30/38 the motor is energised, and this also turns the fuel pump although the fuel solenoid remains closed. On larger heaters with higher pump revolutions a clutch was introduced using a rubber cone and brass cup.

    A more comprehensive discussion of these problems is given on p. 17. In general, Webasto heaters have a recommended service interval of about 1000 running hours. This generally corresponds to 2 seasons work, although exceptionally one year in the case of applications such as buses and minibuses which are constantly in use.

Note that the contacts should reset themselves when the probe is released. If they do not, replace the thermostat. As a final check, undo the top securing screw and lift off the red plastic cover.

This is best achieved with either a pressure washer, or hot soapy water and vigorous shaking. It is not sufficient merely to poke about inside with a screwdriver.

    Visit www.butlertechnik.com for more technical information and downloads. Workshop Manual—HL30/38/65/95/125 Model Air Heaters Service Procedures—HL30/38 (ctd) Fuel Pump There are three types of fuel pump (fig 13), all superficially different, but procedures are basically the same for them all. Remove the inspection plate (b, fig 3) and clean it. It is recommended that this plate being aluminium is inscribed with the date of the service for future reference.

    Remove the motor mount (34, fig 2). Remove motor brushes and caps (79, 80, fig 3). Examine and replace the brushes if less than 10mm remains. Note that earlier HL30 heaters had smaller brushes than later models. Undo the motor screws (fig 3, D). These are held together by castle headed nuts and will require a screwdriver with the centre of the blade filed out.

    Proceed as for HL30, but remember that there is no external fuel solenoid on later designs. External Components Repeat checks as for the HL30. Note however that the fuel inlet pipe is solid, not flexible as in the HL30. Newer heaters with black covers are slightly different. Care must be taken when removing the OH thermo-switch, which should only be finger tight.

    Apply the same tests to these pump components as for the HL30. The pump shaft bush can be replaced in the same way as the HL30. The only difference is that the pump drive wheel is held in with a roll pin, and a new shaft should be drilled to accept this.

Workshop Manual—HL30/38/65/95/125 Model Air Heaters Common Installation Problems It is frequently found that installation problems manifest themselves as unreliable heaters. This section is intended to give some idea of the common pitfalls.

    In general, any pipe placed on an exhaust stub will, to a certain extent, restrict the exit of exhaust gasses and cause carbonning. As a general rule, 1/2 metre of exhaust on an HL30 and 1 metre on larger heaters is a recommended maximum, but even this will cause some build up of deposit. An exhaust break was developed for use with larger heater exhausts, but was of limited success.
