PELLETS AND FEEDING
Pellets are made by applying high pressure to sawdust, or wood waste products (not containing paint) from sawmills, carpentry and other
activities related to processing and working with wood.
Given that it does not use any glue to hold it together this type of fuel is completely environmentally friendly. In fact the compactness of the
pellets over time is guaranteed by a natural substance found in the wood itself: wood coal. In addition to being an environmentally friendly
fuel in that it pushes wood residues to the limits pellets also have technical advantages.
While wood has a calori c value of 4.4kWh/kg. (with 15% humidity after around 18 months of seasoning) the calori c value of pellets is 5 kWh/
kg.
Pellet density is 650kg/m3 and the water content is equal to 8% of its weight. For this reason they do not require seasoning in order to arrive
at a su ciently adequate degree of heat yield.
The pellets used must comply with the characteristics described by the following standards:
EN PLUS CLASS A1, ISO 17225 2 CLASS A1
and
UNI EN 303 5 with the following characteristics: water content ≤ 12%, ash content ≤ 0.5% and lower calori c value >17 MJ/kg (in the
case of boilers).
The manufacturer always recommended using pellets with a diameter of 6 mm with its products.
PELLET STORAGE
In order to ensure problem-free combustion pellets must be stored in a dry place.
Open the tank lid and load the pellets using a scoop.
THE USE OF POOR QUALITY PELLETS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL DAMAGES THE FUNCTIONS OF YOUR STOVE AND CAN
VOID THE WARRANTY AND THE ANNEXED RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER.
TO GUARANTEE COMBUSTION WITHOUT PROBLEMS, THE PELLETS MUST BE KEPT IN A DRY PLACE.
FRONT PELLET FEEDING KIT OPTIONAL
The optional pellet feeding kit allows pellets to be fed into the feed-box from the front without having to extract the insert (operation that
requires machine switch-o ).
DO NOT LOAD A GREATER AMOUNT OF PELLETS THAN THE CAPACITY OF THE TANK AND DO NOT DROP PELLETS INSIDE
THE PRODUCT.
IN THE EVENT OF INSTALLATION WITH FEEDING KIT OPTIONAL THE MACHINE MUST NOT BE EXTRACTED.
