2.3 Hatches
The boiler comes equipped with steel hatches filled with heat-resistant
fiberglass wool and gasket pressure adjustment.
Loading hatches are used for stoking fuel and cleaning the firebox and lower
heat exchanger. They have a two layer insulation board with a thickness of
55mm, which protects the hatch from overheating, and an additional fire
refractory plate.
Bottom combustion boilers have a cast iron plate inserted through the hatch,
which directs exhaust gas from the heat exchanger to the heat exchanger
channel. The plate is to be inserted and taken out in leather gloves only when
the boiler is not in operation.
Cleaning hatches are used for cleaning the heat exchanger channels (all other
hatches should be closed during cleaning).
Ash pan doors are used for removing ash and dust that are produced during
combustion and for spreading embers over the grates through the cast iron
hatch of the grate.
The hatch has a manual air intake flap operated using a screw or a controller
mounted on the 3/4" connection on the boiler body.
2.4 Flue
The boiler has a welded flue with a rectangular cross-section with an
adjustable damper. The flue can be screwed into the boiler with four M10 bolts
and sealed with a cord gasket or it can be welded. At the bottom of the flue
there is a cleaning hatch for removal of ash and soot from the flue. It is
attached using M8 wing nuts.
2.5 Insulating panels
Insulation panels are mounted on the surface of the water wall and limit
heat loss from the boiler. They are made of powder coated steel sheet and
insulated with a 40mm layer of fiberglass wool.
