The Accentra Insert is more than just automatic
ignition, it is also automatic temperature control. The
automatic system will allow the fire size to be adjusted
to match the heating needs and even put the fire out
if necessary. If heat is needed after the fire is out, the
Accentra Insert will automatically re-ignite and adjust
the fire size to match the heating need. The totally
automatic room sensor mode is recommended because
of its efficiency. The unit can be switched between
"AUTO" and "MANUAL" at any time during operation.
Igniter switch to "AuTO"
room Temperature mode
In "Room Temp Mode" heat output is controlled
automatically by the Room Sensing Probe. When
the Room Sensing Probe calls for heat, the stove will
increase output. When the Room Sensing Probe is
getting close to the set temperature, the stove will begin
to level off output and keep the fire burning at just the
right temperature to maintain that setting.
High output is determined by the feed rate setting. This
setting, generally on #4, can be increased if higher burn
rates are necessary (Fig. 1). The unit's maximum burn
rate should not create less than 1" of ash on the burn
pot front edge(See Fig.2). Overfeeding is not a safety
concern, but fuel may be wasted if unburned pellets fall
into the ash pan.
In "Room Temp Mode" a constant fuel consumption rate
is sacrificed for exact room temperature. Therefore, as
it gets colder more pellets will be burned automatically.
The distribution blower speed will vary according to
the position of the mode selector pointer, and fire size.
Igniter switch to "AuTO"
Stove Temperature mode
This allows for automatic ignition upon start-up only.
The unit can then be set at any desired setting. The
heat output and fuel consumption will remain constant
regardless of room temperature (See Fig 4). The unit's
maximum feed rate should not create less than 1" of
ash on the burn pot front edge. See Fig 2.
The unit's low burn or maintenance setting is as low
as it will go. It will not go out unless it runs out of fuel
or is turned off.
Shut-down Procedure
To kill the fire or stop burning the stove, turn the Mode
Selector to "OFF". This will cause the fire to diminish
and burn out. When the fire burns out and the stove
cools down everything will stop.
If you pull the plug to shut down the stove, all motors
will stop. This may cause incomplete combustion and
smoke in the firebox. If the load door is opened, the
smoke may escape.
The best way to shut down the stove is simply let
it run out of pellets, then the stove will shut down
automatically.
Automatic Ignition/Operation
Fig. 4
Room Temperature Mode:
This setting will produce a room temperature
of 70 degrees with the distribution blower at medium speed.
This setting will produce medium heat with the
distribution blower on "low".
This setting will produce continuous maximum heat
output with the distribution blower at full speed.
