8.3 Working principle
The Remeha Avanta Plus casing serves as a sealed air box,
with air drawn in by the fan. On the outlet side of the fan is
a venturi, into which a measured quantity of gas is injected
based on the volume of air available. The fan speed con-
trol is dependent on the settings of the external control, the
advanced boiler controller ‘
abc
®
’ and the prevailing tempera-
tures (measured by the temperature sensors).
This method of gas/air ratio control ensures that the gas
quantity is precisely adjusted to the air quantity. Thus creating
optimum combustion over the whole heat input range. The gas
and air is mixed in the venturi and then passes into the spe-
cially designed pre-mix burner. After combustion, the hot flue
gas is directed through a specially designed, high efficiency
helicoil stainless steel heat exchanger with a large surface
area, and transfers it’s heat to the system water circulating
around the coils. In the condensing part of the exchanger the
water vapour in the flue gas condenses within it and the heat
released during this process (the so-called latent or condens-
ing heat) is also transferred to the system water. The conden-
sate water so formed is discharged from the heat exchanger
via a siphon.
