trolleys, AND LIFTED HOLDING IT FROM THE BOTTOM.
Be careful with the control panel, which must be protected from
both mechanical stress (impacts) and weather conditions (rain,
humidity). These would jeopardise its correct functioning.

CHARACTERISTICS
II.1 FUELS USED
II.1.1 Pellet
Pasqualicchio srl boilers are a good alternative to traditional
gas (methane, lpg) or liquid (gas oil) fueled boilers, since
they are cheap to operate, thanks to the low market price of
the fuels used.
The pellet used must be of good quality, since the efficiency and heat capacity of the
stove can vary depending on the type and quality of the used pellet
Therefore, for correct operation, the pellet must have the following minimum requirements:
Compressed virgin wood chips without additional binders
Max size: 6 mm diameter and 2 cm length
Heating Value:
from 19 MJ/kg
= 4.538 kcal/kg = 5.28 kWh/kg
to 17,20 MJ/kg = 4.100 Kcal/kg = 4.77 kWh/kg
Density:
from 1,25 to 1,4 kg/dm3
Humidity content:
less than 10%
Ash:
from 0,19% to 1,0%
BASIC OPERATINGS
Below a brief description of the boiler functioning.
The pellet, stored in special tank, is picked up by a rotary valve, driven by a geared motor then
let it fall through a conduit, into the burner placed in the combustion chamber. In here, through
an electrical resistance of ignition (glow plug) the combustion get started.
The combustion takes place thanks to the combustion air brought inside the chamber with the
aid of an extractor fan fixed at the smoke outlet.
