4. TECHNOLOGY AND SAFETY FUNCTIONS

The technological advances in your new combi stove are the result of 
years of testing and practical experience. The practical advantages 
of your pellet stove are convincing:

Operating comfort

The  microprocessor-controlled  combustion  regulation  optimises 
the  interaction  of  flue  gas  blower  and  screw  using  the  current 
combustion  chamber  temperature.  This  guarantees  optimum 
combustion and operating status.

All function can be regulated centrally using the integrated operating 
unit. The intuitive graphic interface permits easy operation; all the 
settings can be made quickly and simply.

Top efficiency - lowest emissions

A  very  great  heat  exchange  surface  together  with  optimum 
combustion air control leads to excellent fuel utilisation.

Fine continuous pellet dosing in an optimised burner pot made of 
high-quality  grey  cast  iron  leads  to  virtually  complete  combustion 
with very good exhaust gas values - and this is guaranteed in every 
operating phase.

Note

During operation, the flame noise, pellets dropping and actuation 
of  the  electronic  components  are  audible  due  to  the  automatic 
control.

Pressure monitoring

The negative pressure in the combustion chamber is continuously 
monitored  during  operation.  Below  a  defined  threshold,  a  correct 
operation can not be guaranteed and the unit will switch off with the 
fault message „NOT ENOUGH LOW PRESSURE“ for safety reason.

Note

After  the  occurrence  of  the  error  message,  maintenance  or 
cleaning work necessarily has to be carried out! If the error occurs 
again, a safe operation is no longer guaranteed, the service must 
be informed immediately.

Note

If the stove is used in a habitation together with a kitchen hood or 
a ventilation (WC) it might happen that the built-in pressure switch 
stops  the  stove.  If  using  the  hood  make  sure  that  an  adequate 
supply of air is ensured.

Low-temperature shutdown

The unit switches off if the stove cools below a minimum temperature. 
This switch-off may occur if pellet ignition is delayed.

Electrical excess current protection

The  stove  has  a  main  fuse  (at  the  rear)  to  protect  against  excess 
current.

Automatic cleaning cycle

The  speed  of  the  flue  gas  fan  is  increased  every  hour  for  a  short 
period  to  blow  ash  from  the  burn  pot,  increasing  the  operational 
safety. The status indicator CLEAN appears on the display.

Only for stoves with turning grids:

Every  6  hours  (interval  adjustable)  an  additionally  automatic  big 
cleaning cycle is performed. The stove stops, the automatic cleaning 
tilts the grid and then re-ignites the stove. The status indicator BIG 
CLEAN appears on the display continuously. The cleaning procedure 
with tilting the grid is to convey ash and clinker from the burn pot 
into the ash drawer. 

Note

This  additional  function  does  not  replace  a  manual  cleaning  as 
described in CLEANING and MAINTENANCE, as this is absolutely 
necessary to do regularly.

Note

Due to the turning grid there is a certain generation of noise during 
the automatic cleaning cycle (START or BIG CLEAN).

Component monitoring

All  the  electrical  components  used  are  continuously  monitored 
during  operation.  If  a  component  is  defective  or  can  no  longer  be 
actuated correctly, then operation is stopped and a warning or error 
message is issued 

(see MANUAL TOUCH DISPLAY)

.

Auger motor monitoring

Too long or wet pellets as well as pellets with too high dust content 
(see BRIEF INFORMATION ON FUEL PELLETS) can cause so-called 
“auger jammers” in the auger channel. This may also happen if the 
pellets  accumulate  in  the  burn  pot  and  the  backlog  reaches  into 
the chute. The auger motor reacts in both cases with an increased 
current consumption, which causes the error message: DISCHARGE 
MOTOR  BLOCKED.  The  stove  will  be  stopped.  Please  call  the 
customer service immediately.

Power failure (during heating)

After  a  brief  power  failure,  the  operating  functions  that  were  set 
before the power failure, continues. If the power failure lasts longer, 
the stove goes to start phase if sufficient temperature or embers are 
present.  If  the  power  failure  lasts  too  long,  the  stove  goes  into  the 
stop phase. The flue gas fan continues to burn any pellet residues 
(approximately 10 minutes). Then it will restart automatically.

Power failure (during the initial stage)

After a brief power failure the boot process continues. If the power 
failure lasts longer, the stove is in the stop phase. The flue gas fan 
continues  to  burn  any  pellet  residues  (approximately  10  minutes). 
Then it will restart automatically.
