Operating Parameters
The ACTIVE SYSTEM stoves are controlled by operating parameters that determine the
product's response in the various conditions.
ACTIVE SYSTEM PARAMETERS CAN NOT BE CHANGED
but knowing what they are can be very
useful to assess whether or not the stove is operating correctly.
The most important information to pay attention to, is the air flow - the liters/minute read by the air flow
sensor and the RPM’s of the combustion fan.
The speed of the combustion fan changes continuously in order to keep the air flow as close as possible to
the set parameters.
The combustion fan has its own reference value. To determine whether the stove is working correctly or if an
anomaly has occurred you check the current RPM’s against the reference value given in the service manual.
Example:
At
power 3,
in a
EGO
stove, the flow sensor needs
160
L/min
as minimum intake, the combustion
blower will adjust to guarantee this amount of incoming air.
–
In this case the combustion blower has a reference value of 1,600 rpm.
–
With normal installation and fuel quality, in a clean stove, the running values will remain close to the
reference value with a tolerance of ~ 20 rpm.
–
EXAMPLE: If you check the stove & the combustion blower is spinning 400 RMP higher than the reference
value for the current power level, this is a clear signal that there is some problem with air flow. This could be
caused by a dirty burn pot or flue pipe. It could also be caused by negative pressure in the room. The stove
will adjust up to a set point and then trigger an alarm code if it exceeds the set parameters.
–
If the combustion blower hits the alarm threshold - 2,500 rpm and is unable to supply the 160 L/min
required for 20 consecutive minutes, the stove triggers an alarm A06 (abnormal ratio between the number
of revolutions of the fan and the flow of incoming combustion air). The stove will shut down and display
A06.
