2. The purpose of Futura Bio series boilers
In Poland, biomass as the fuel for boilers becomes more and more popular and commonly used by entrepreneurs and
farmers. It is utilised for generating thermal energy during the process of combustion in special devices designed for this
purpose.
One of these devices is the Futura Bio series boiler in the Pellets or Standard version.
Purpose and possible use of Futura Bio series boilers
The Futura Bio boilers are designed for burning biomass
in the form of briquettes, sawdust and chips of proper size
and, as a substitute, grains or cherry stones.
The Bio Pellets version presented here is designed
for burning of pellets, i.e. granulated sawdust, with
diameter of 6 – 10 mm and up to 4 cm. Also, sawdust
can be burnt as a substitute. For special orders the boiler
in this version can be adopted for burning of wood chips as large as 30 mm.
The boiler may be installed both in new and revamped boiler rooms with the aim of combustion process automation,
improving the operating comfort and reducing of harmful emissions to atmosphere.
The Futura Bio boilers with built-in biomass burner can be used for heating of residential buildings, commercial
buildings, shops, detached houses and so on.
The Futura boilers may be installed only in open-radiant type systems with forced or gravitational circulation,
complying with the Polish standard PN-91/B-02413: ”Heating and heat engineering. Protection of open-type
water-based heating systems.”
All works related to boiler room equipment, boiler installation and operation must be performed in compliance
with valid standards and regulations.
Basic fuel for the Futura Bio Standard boilers:
For the Futura Bio Standard boiler with automatic fuel feeding the following fuels are recommended:
- Sawdust briquettes with diameter of 50 mm;
- Wood chips with maximum size of up to 3 cm;
- Sawdust with maximum content of non-combustible particles of 10%.
should not be less than 16 MJ/kg.
the lifetime of boiler.
Substitute fuel for Futura Bio Standard boilers:
- Corn straw briquettes with diameter of 50 mm (when not too hard, 80 mm is allowed),
- Grains: oat,
- Sweet and sour cherry pits.
Basic fuel for Futura Bio Pellets boiler:
The Futura Pellets series boilers are designed for burning of sawdust biomass in the form of pellets with the diameter of
6-10 mm and length of up to 50 mm.
Pellets should meet the requirements of the ÖNORM M7 135 standard.
Substitute fuel for Futura Bio Pellets boilers:
- Wood chips with maximum size of 25 mm.
Fuel recommendations:
Please remember that fuel pieces fed by the feeder should be of a proper size and fuel should not contain pieces greater
than maximum allowable size recommended. Furthermore, fuel must not contain foreign bodies like stones, plastic or
metal parts, cords, textiles, fabrics and so on).
Moisture content higher than recommended will accelerate the corrosion processes and cause premature wear of boiler
components. Damages caused by above mentioned reasons are not covered by manufacturer’s guarantee.
