2.2 Mounting
General
The PellX burner is intended for horizontal installation with a mounting flange
on one of the boiler doors. When the burner is fitted in a door it is quick and
easy to remove the ash. Some doors can be too small to allow opening when a
pellets burner is fitted. In such cases the burner can be moved backwards in the
mounting flange until it is possible to open the door. Alternatively the burner
can be taken out from the flange during the removal of ash.
The oil burner door is often the most suitable place in combi-boilers. If the ash
space is too small, the door for putting in wood is an alternative. Contact your
PellX dealer for more detailed information about the boiler; suitable mounting,
modifications needed, etc.
If the standard flange can not be used, a flat mounting plate is available as
option. Adjust and fasten the plate to the boiler, seal with insulation cement.
Fasten the burner body with screws in the holes in the plate, seal with Ø10 mm
sealing cord. The ash removal is described under
Cleaning of the space between
mantle and combustion chamber tube in
the Operation and Maintenance
Manual.
It is forbidden to tamper with the safety devices or disable their function. See the
Operation and Maintenance Manual.
The burner is adapted for pellets feeding from a standard PellX screw 1.7 or 2.3
m long and with the feed pipe inclining between 40 and 50º. Feed screws of
other manufacture can be used, consult your PellX dealer. Larger types of feed
screws are not suitable for direct feed to the burner, but must be equipped with
an intermediate hopper. A non-standard screw of more than 1.6 Amp. must be
connected via a separate relay.
