Safety Rules During Installation; Safety Measures - BOREAL HYDROBOREAL-14 Instructions D'installation, D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Moreover, it must comply with the following requirements:
• Diameter: The pellet diameter should not be either lower than 6 mm or higher than 8 mm.
• Minimum length: The weight proportion corresponding to those wood pellets with a length lower than 10 mm should not exceed 20% of the total
combustible mass.
• Additional requirements to combustible materials:
-
Ash sintering point: The ash sintering point should be higher than 1100°C.
- Ash fusion point: The ash fusion point should be higher than 1200°C.
- Ash softening point: The ash softening point should be higher than 1150°C.
- Transport and storage
However, the most important thing is to fulfil the transportation rules, since it is possible to damage good quality pellets just by handling them in the
wrong way during the transportation or the pouring in the hopper. The pellets transportation to the final customer, or to the intermediate distributor, and
the subsequent distribution are ruled by the "EN15234 pellets transportation and storage" . Please, only choose suppliers who transport and storage
pellets according to these rules.
- Pellet supply
Open the tank cover on the top of the equipment and empty directly the pellet bag taking care of not overflowing. You should also avoid that the fuel
spills out and falls outside the hopper because it would fall into the equipment.

6. SAFETY RULES DURING INSTALLATION

The way of installing the boiler will affect the safety and the proper operation. For this reason, it is essential that the installation is carried out by qualified
installers who are trained to make an installation compliant with local safety and installation regulations.
European, national, regional, provincial and municipal regulations.
Flue installations or smoke evacuation systems T must be controlled before the installation with respect to the following:
• Prohibitions relating to the installation.
• Legal distances.
• Limits established by the local administration rules or generals provisions of the relevant authorities.
• Conventional limits derived from the owner's community rules or contracts.
Overall, the installation must comply with all the regulation applicable according to local, national and European laws.
If your equipment is not properly installed, it may cause serious damage.
Before the installation, carry out the next series of checks:
• Make sure that the floor can sustain the weight of the equipment and make a proper thermal isolation in the case that the floor is made of
flammable material (wood) or a material that can be affected by a thermal shock (plaster , for example).
If the equipment is installed on a floor which is not completely refractory or inflammable such as parquet, carpet, etc, it is necessary to replace this
part or introduce a fire-resistant base so that it protrudes beyond the front of the boiler 30 cm. Example of materials include steel flooring, glass
base or any other type of fire-resistant material.
• Make sure that there is proper ventilation in the place where it is installed (air intake).
• Avoid the installation in places where there are collective ventilation pipes, hoods with or without extractor, B type gas equipments, heat pumps or
equipments that can influence the flue draught The chimney draw may not be good if they are used at the same time.
• Make sure that the smoke duct and the pipes used for the chimney are suitable for the operation of the boiler.
• Make sure that all the equipments have their own smoke duct. Do not use the same duct for several equipments.
• We recommend that you call your fitter in order to check both the chimney as well as the air flow for the combustion.

SAFETY MEASURES

This boiler must only be used for its intended purpose. We can accept no liability for damage that occurs either directly or indirectly from the use of this
equipment to people, animals or things caused by an incorrect installation, adjustments and maintenance or the inappropriate use of the equipment.
As explained at the beginning of this manual, the installation of this boiler must be done by qualified staff for this kind of installation. Overall, the
installation must comply with all the regulations according to local, national and European laws. In any case, we describe the following requirements to
take into account when installing the boiler:
a. Keep any flammable or heat sensitive materials (furniture, curtains, and clothing) at a minimum distance of about 150cm.
b. If the equipment is installed on a floor which is not completely refractory or inflammable it is necessary to replace this part or introduce a fire-
resistant base.
c. Do not place the boiler near combustible walls or likely to be affected by a thermal shock.
d. The boiler should only be used when the ash pan is inserted and the door is closed
e. It is recommended to install carbon monoxide detector (CO) in the room where the equipment is installed.
f. If you need a longer wire than the one provided use it always with an earthed plug.
g. Do not install the in a bedroom.
h. The boiler should never be turned on in the presence of emission of gases or vapours (e.g., linoleum glue, gasoline, etc). Do not place nearby
flammable materials.
i. Solid combustion residues (ashes) should be collected in an airtight container and resistant to fire.
j. Do not allow anybody to make operations in the boiler without training relevant to the installation.
k. Do not leave children unattended in the room without an adult supervision.
l. Keep away the animals.
m. If you notice visible damage (e.g. water leaks, thermal deformations, smoke or fire traces, mechanical imperfections, etc.) you should neither go
ahead with the service nor restart the boiler. The faults have to be repaired. In case of any doubt, please contact a specialised technician or the
technical service.
n. If the installation remains stopped during a long period of time you should guarantee an absolute antifreeze protection in every part where the
water is stored in.
o. The boilers should not be submitted to any external mechanical load (e.g. tray, rise means, support, or similar). This remark also applies to its
individual components (door, cover, etc.).
