FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE OF THE HEATING SYSTEM Functional principle of the heating system Construction of the plant Depending on the type of heating system selected, some of the components might be different from the presentation below. The heating specialist will explain the system to you. The heating water heated by the boiler is supplied to the radiators or is used to heat up the hot water (calorifier).

FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE OF THE HEATING SYSTEM Figure Components Function / description Calorifier Holds a reserve of hot process water for house- hold consumption (e.g. for showering). Control panel / Control module Controls and monitors the operation of the boiler. Maintains the desired room temperature optimal- ly and fuel-efficiently, independent of the outside temperature.
FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE OF THE HEATING SYSTEM What happens inside the BioLyt? The BioLyt features a standard pellet hopper and an optional fully-automated pellet feed system. When the The BioLyt has been designed for the low-emission com- integrated pellet hopper is used exclusively, it needs to bustion of wood pellets in accordance with EN ISO 17225-2 be refilled manually.
