BASE AIR

 changes speed of fan in all power levels by same number. It is reasonable to use base 

air to compensate different characters of particular heating systems. For example if draught in boiler is 
very strong the fan may utilise to work with lower rotations in base air negative value (-2Pa).

 PARAMETERS 

gives overview of burner’s default, min and max settings. The menu

 

enables fine 

tuning of the particular burner. In general it is not neccesary. Short description of parameters is given in 
Annex 3. 
 

 

Regular maintenance 

4.7

Pellet burners burning chamber requires regular maintenance. The maintenance period depends on the 
quality of the pellets and heating intensity. The average maintenance period is one week. The burning 
chamber needs cleaning if ash layer on grate is thicker than 1,5 – 2 cm. If there is more ash on the grate 
then it directs flame up directly against the burning chamber and burns a hole into it quite fast. That 
makes burners work ineffective. If ash gets under the grate then it closes air channels, grate heats over 
and gets deformed (Photo 1). That  reduces critically burning quality. As even superior quality pellets 
contain 0,3 -0,5 % ash, then the 

grate has to be cleaned at least once a week.

  Depending on the quality 

of the pellets, it might be necessary to clean the burner more frequently.  Lower quality pellets contain 
more ash and nonburning substantces. See Photo 1 .

 

Well cleaned burning chamber of burner reduces 

fuel consumption and increases substantially its lifetime. 

Only high quality pellets e.g. ENPlus-A1 (Premium)  can be used in PV20a/30a burners.

Only high quality ENPlus-A1 class (Premium) pellets can be used in PV20a and PV30a burners.
