7.7 Regulation of the feeding screw fuel
A
screw potentiometer
regulates the amount of fuel (
fig 7.4
). It is already set on a value
corresponding to the power of heat generator model, see
tab.7.7
below.
Small fuel regulation are allowed through the
screw potentiometer
using a screwdriver.
The fuel amount increases turning it clockwise, it decreases when turned anticlockwise.
The fuel conveying capacity, measurable in mc/h or kg/h, depends on the apparent mass
density of the fuel and the number of turns of the screw; reference is made to the wood
pellet having a lower heating value (l.h.v.) of 17.6 MJ/Kg (4.9 KWh/Kg) as from prospec-
tus 8 of standard EN303-5 for the fuel of test “C”, approximate dimensions Ø6 x 25mm
and an apparent mass density between 600 and 660 kg/mc.
CAUTION !!
Do not, under any circumstance, exceed the maximum adjustment values
l.h.v. of 4.9 kWh/kg.
In case of using solid fuels different from the fuel of reference (wood pellet) without certifi-
cation, we recommend checking its l.h.v. in order to guarantee optimal performances. In
case the fuel has l.h.v. different from that of reference (wood pellet),
tab. 7.7
will be mere-
ly indicative. Various attempts must be made to obtain an optimal regulation by carrying
out the above-described operations.
7.8 Switch-off
To switch off the boiler the main switch has to be on “0” position. The switch off will be
automatic if the fuel ends completely in the firebox.
