Vitoflex 300-UF
Wood-fired Boiler
Vitoflex 300-UF 390, 530, 720, 950 and 1250
Product may not be exactly as shown
Vitoflex 300-UF with an attached external grate and a
moving annealing grate to achieve optimal combustion
results.
A feed auger continuously moves the wood fuel onto
the burner trough where gasification takes place.
The combustible gases blend with precisely controlled
secondary air, resulting in a complete combustion and
the thermal energy is released into the boiler's triple-pass
heat exchanger.
Output range: UF 390, 334 to 1331 MBH (98 to 390 kW)
UF 530, 450 to 1808 MBH (132 to 530 kW)
UF 720, 614 to 2457 MBH (180 to 720 kW)
UF 950, 812 to 3242 MBH (238 to 950 kW)
UF 1250, 1065 to 4265 MBH (312 to 1250 kW)
