Commentary
This operation and maintenance manual includes important information about correct
assembly and operation of the Ecomat burner which is designed to be used with a
boiler. This manual is primary intended for fitters who possess necessary knowledge
and experience in operation and maintenance of heating systems. The first launch of
the burner shall be done by a duly trained professional. Improper launch or assembly
of the burner results in warranty loss.
1.2.
Hints and tips for fitters and users
Assembly and operation should be done according to local norms and standards
concerning:
- appropriate positioning of the boiler, manner of combustion air supply and
flue gas discharge;
- technical and safety equipment for water heating systems.
1.3.
Conditions for safe operation
Burner and boiler shall be operated in properly fitted rooms only. Since boiler with the
pellet burner uses combustion air from the room (the boiler-house) which it is
positioned in, thus insufficient air intake may cause flue gas emission and a threat of
carbon monoxide presence. Hence, it is forbidden to downsize or close the inlet and
outlet holes.
The size of an inlet hole which supplies combustion air should be at least the
same as the cross-section of the
boiler’s chimney.
In order to illustrate
importance of the above, it is worth mentioning that e.g. the Ecomat 25 burner
that operates at full capacity of 25 kW burning about 5.5kg of pellet per hour
requires approx. 100m3 of combustion air.
If such an irregularity occurs, it should be immediately corrected. Otherwise, further
operation of the boiler must be discontinued and the fitter has to inform the user in
writing about such a situation.
