8 Components
Explanation of parts
8.1.1 Circuit board
The circuit board or also called motherboard controls all components in the
heater.
8.1.2 Data cable
The data cable or flatcable connects the circuit board and the control panel.
8.1.3 Auger motor
The auger motor is attached to the bottom of the auger or so-called worm. This
is an electric motor with a transmission to 1 rpm.
8.1.4 Mortar
This is a shaft with a spindle around it. It rotates at low speed by means of the
auger motor and raises the pellets.
8.1.5 Pressure monitor
The pressure switch measures the back pressure in the outlet. If the back
pressure (e.g. due to wind) is too high, the switch will switch and the stove will
malfunction. The auger motor will then receive no power.
8.1.6 Maximum thermostat
The maximum thermostat monitors the maximum temperature of the pellet tank.
As soon as this becomes too high, the thermostat will switch over and the stove
will malfunction. The auger motor will then receive no power.
You can reset the maximum thermostat by pressing the reset button. This can
be found at the back of the heater. Here you will see a black cap with a
diameter of approximately 1cm that you can unscrew, behind this is a white
button. You can press this to reset the maximum thermostat.
8.1.7 Glow plug
The glow plug is an element which glows during ignition. It is located in the tube
that you can see at the bottom of the burner box.
8.1.8 Flue gas fan
The flue gas fan takes care of the extraction of the flue gases in the stove and
creates a negative pressure in the stove and blows flue gases into the flue pipe.
In this way, oxygen is also sucked through the firebox. The flue gas fan rotates
at different speeds to ensure proper combustion.
