PV 100a

The smoke duct is connected to the chimney, the dampers for smoke gases are open and 

there is sufficient draught. When the burner is operating, the negative pressure inside the 
boiler must stay between 4-6 Pa. 

To turn on the burner, switch on boiler main switch. If burner displays ’Stopped’, then go to settings 

menu and change parameter ’Burner’ from OFF to ON. The display shows ’Waiting’. Now turn boiler 
thermostat to desired temperature. The burner will go to Loading-state. If this is the first run, extern-

al auger needs to be filled with pellets. It can take up to 20 minutes. 

To stop the burning, turn boiler thermostat to lowest point. The burner will now finish the process 
after all fuel is burnt.

Caution!

 Never turn off a working burner from the main switch of the boiler. Use the thermostat 

switch for that purpose. In order to stop safely, let the burner burn empty. Do not leave the burner 
unattended when it has been necessary to use the emergency stop.

Log

Log screen displays last events (burner states) and their duration. All states are described in Table 4. 
The duration is in form mm:ss (’m’ in the middle) or hh:mm (’h’ in the middle). For example “Igniting 
01m25 means the burner ignition state lasted 1minute and 25 seconds.  

Last row of the log shows current state. To reach the last row, press the “down” button, until you 

reach the current state. The duration of current state updates every second or minute.

Status

Description

STOPPED

The burner is not switched on.

WAITING

The burner is switched on and waiting for command from the thermostat of the 

boiler.

TESTING

Testing the fan, battery, feeder.

CLEANING

Removing ash from burning chamber

LOADING

Loading pellets into burner for ignition after the command from boiler thermostat.

LOADING2

Second try if the first ignition was not successful.

IGNITING

Loaded amount of pellets are in the burning chamber, igniter and fan are working 

till photocell recognizes flame.

PREBURN

Only the fan is working, the igniter is off. Pellets start burning properly.

BURNING

Status of normal working: External auger works by level sensor, internal auger and 
fan are working by. Photocell must see the flame.

HOLD FLAME

Boiler has reached an estimated temperature and boiler thermostat switched off, 
pilot flame is held in the burning chamber. 

BURN END

Boiler has reached an estimated temperature and boiler thermostat switched off
