CHARACTERISTIC
FEATURES
The electricity generating heating and cooking wood burning stove “INDIGIRKA-2” (further stove or
INDIGIRKA-2) is designed for prolonged heating, generation of the electric power, cooking and food
warming. The stove is very useful especially in emergency situations (wildlife, low temperatures, disasters
etc.) and is interesting for fishermen, hunters, tourist, travelers, rescuers and other people, who will need
temporarily heat and energy resources.
This stove can be used at the outside temperature from -30C(-22F) up to 40C (104F).
The appliance does not contain any hazardous and toxic substances that can impair men’s health or the
environment.
Features and advantages
The small weight and dimensions allow transportation of the stove and installation in any accessible
place.
During the process of heating or cooking, which are the primary purposes of the stove, it generates the
direct current of 12 volts and power not less than 50 watts
The electricity generators enter stable operation mode 12 – 15 minutes after fire starts. During burning
thermoelectric generators produce electricity, which is transferred to the control block and then to the
external clamp outlets.
The thermoelectric generators supply enough energy to light 2-3 energy-efficient bulbs, charge a
notebook, a cell phone, an iPod or Reader, a camera or watch a portable TV or radio.
It’s not very much – but in emergency situations it will allow you to use most portable devices you have
used before. You may want to keep it safe in your backyard, just in case.
The project was developed by “Termofor” in association with “Kryotherm” (a company based in Saint-
Petersburg, Russia). The same types of generators made by our partner are used in the defense industries,
space technologies and other high-tech spheres.
The cooking surface allows cooking on the surface or even over an open fire in pans of various sizes.
You can load fuel from the top too, or clean the upper part of the stove if needed.
This stove is designed to burn natural wood. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result
from burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods, green or freshly cut hardwoods. It
is possible to temporarily burn pellets, wood briquettes, charcoal. It is strictly forbidden to use coal as
fuel.
The primary air, needed for burning is fed through the small gate in the ash drawer and the grate to the
fuel.
The small gate in the ash drawer is used to regulate air feed, providing a clean burn.
Ash falls through the grate into the ash drawer. Once the ash drawer is full empty the drawer outside to
keep things clean. It is safe to pull out the ash drawer while the stove is burning.
Combustion gases are directed through the flue of 3.15” (80 mm) in diameter, located at the top of the
stove.
