TECHNICAL FEATURES AND DIMENSIONS 

2.1.

 

Technical features 

The  ECOTWIN  boiler  series  is  designed  for  manual  function  on  solid  fuel:  wood,  agricultural 
residues,  briquettes,  with  a  minimum  diameter  of  15mm,  and  also  wood  pellet  of  6-8mm 
diameter automatically by means of an automatic pellet burner. The boiler is equipped with two 
doors:  one  upper  for  cleaning  of  the  heat  exchanger  and  a  lower  door  fuel  loading  and  ash 
removal. The wood combustion is performed by an air door and a chain thermostat regulator. 

The boiler is made of steel, ideal material for thermal fluctuations, resistant to expansion and 
contraction. Monobloc construction, with no other welded structures is an advantage of ECOTWIN 
boiler. Also this boiler is protected against thermal shock. 

The boiler body is designed so that all surfaces that are in contact with the flame are cooled by 
water, including the grate where the ash and combustion residues fall. The two gas passes at 
the top, the large number of flue pipes, large volume of the furnace and boiler water as well, 
and symmetrical construction causes a high yield.

2.2.

 

Function principle 

The function of the boiler is based on natural gas 
evacuation through the chimney. The lower door 
is  equipped  with  flange  for  mounting  a  pellet 
burner and air door.  

Alternative function on wood can be realized by 
unmounting the burner, and mounting the blind 
flange  in  place,  and  connecting  the  chain 
regulator to the air door.  

With the optional kit which includes the second 
lower door, altering between pellet and wood can 
be performed easily by closing the corresponding 
door.  

On  manual  mode  with  wood,  the  fuel  is 
positioned on the grate. The pellet combustion is 
controlled by the automatic pellet burner.  

The combustion takes place in the fire chamber. 
During  the  combustion  the  flame  comes  in 
contact with the side walls of the fire chamber, 
which  are  surrounded  by  water.  The  exhaust 
gases are guided through the heat exchanger to 
the smoke box, and afterwards evacuated to the 
chimney.
