WE HOPE THAT YOU ARE SATISFIED WITH OUR
PRODUCT AND WE KINDLY RECOMMEND YOU
TO FOLLOW THESE MAIN RULES IMPORTANT FOR A
LONG SERVICE LIFE AND THE CORRECT FUNCTION
-
ALITY OF THE BOILER
1. Installation, ignition test and operator‘s training
will be carried out by an installation company
trained by the manufacturer
. This company also completes a boiler installation report (p.32).
2. During the
gasification process, wood tar and condensates (acids)
form in the fuel storage tank.
Therefore, there must be a thermoregulatory valve installed behind the boiler or an electronically
controlled three-way valve on the return piping in order to keep the
minimum temperature of
water returning to the boiler at 65 °C. Operating temperature
of water in the boiler must be
in the
80 - 90 °C
range.
3. The boiler
must not be permanently
operated in an output
lower than 50 %
.
4. Operation of every circulating pump in the system must be regulated by an individual thermostat
in order to keep the
specified minimum temperature of water returning to the boiler
. The
boiler-circuit pump shall be switched on and off by means of a thermostat built in the boiler (set
to 70 °C).
5. The boiler operates environmentally friendly if working at the nominal output level.
6. We therefore recommend installing the boiler with
accumulating storage tanks, which provides
20 - 30 % fuel consumption decrease, longer service life of both – the boiler and the chimney,
and user-friendlier operation
.
7. If you cannot install the boiler with accumulation tanks of required volume, then we require that
you install at least
one equalising tank
; the volume of which should be 1000 l.
8. When operating the boiler in a
lower-output mode
(summer operation or heating up hot potable
water), it is
necessary to fire-up daily
.
9. Use only
dry fuel
with
12 - 20 % moisture content – 2 years old
.
CAUTION - If the boiler is installed with a TV 60 (65/70/75) °C thermoregulatory
valve or with an electronically controlled three-way valve for keeping the min. tem-
perature of water returning to boiler at 65-70°C in combination with accumulation
storage tanks (see the schematics), the guarantee period for the boiler drum is extend-
ed from 24 to 36 months. The guarantee period for other parts remains 2-year long.
In non-compliance with these principles, the drum’s and the heatproof shaped pieces’
service life may dramatically decrease due to low-temperature corrosion. The boiler
drum may corrode in as little time as 2 years.
