TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The chimney stoves of La Nordica are suitable to heat living spaces for some periods.
AS FuEL, WOOD LOgS ARE uSED. THE APPLIANCE WORkS AS AN INTERmITTENT OPERATING APPLIANCE.
The stove is made of raw and enamelled meltings of cast iron.
The hearth is totally sheathed with single cast-iron sheets. Its back is extractable. Thanks to calibrated holes, made on the same back, it is
guaranteed a supply of pre-heated air inside the hearth, thus obtaining a post-combustion which increases the efficiency and reduces the
emission of the unburnt gases. Inside it there is a turning and extractable grate. The inside smoke plate, reflects the fire radiation and increases
the internal temperature of the combustion chamber. This process together with the exhaust gases flows, makes optimal the combustion and
improves the efficiency (see
The hearth is equipped with a panoramic door with ceramic glass (resistant up to 700 °C). This allows a wonderful view on the burning flames.
Furthermore, it is thus avoided the output of sparks and smoke.
Below the hearth door will be found an extractable ash-drawer with a closing door
THE HEATING OF THE ENvIRONmENT IS mADE BY IRRADIATION: through the panoramic glass and the external hot surfaces of the stove,
the heat is radiated into the environment (See chapter CALCuLATION OF THE THERMAL POWER).
ACCESSORIES
THE STOvE IS EquIPPED WITH CONTROLS OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY AIR BY WHICH IT IS ADjuSTED THE COMBuSTION AIR.
1A - PRImARY air register
(Picture 6
With the air register located under the door of the hearth, it is possible to adjust the air flow through the ash drawer and the grating in
direction of the fuel. The primary air is necessary for the combustion process during the ignition. In order to open the passage of primary air
the lever should be completely pulled. The ash drawer has to be emptied regularly, so that ash cannot hinder the intake of primary air for the
combustion. Primary air is also necessary to keep fire live. When the control is completely on the left, the register is closed, when the knob
is completely on the right the register is opened. DuRINg THE COMBuSTION OF WOOD, THE PRIMARY AIR REgISTER MuST BE OPENED
ONLY A FEW, SINCE OTHERWISE THE WOOD BuRNS quICkLY AND THE DEvICE CAN OvERHEAT (see chapter NORMAL OPERATION).
2A - SECONDARY air register
Over the hearth door there is the secondary air register. Also this control must be opened (then moved to the right), especially for wood
combustion, so that unburnt carbon does not undergo a post-combustion (see chapter NORMAL OPERATION).
The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the RATED CALORIFIC YIELD is the following one:
