8/ 59 1 General description PV700a and PV1000a are burners of wooden pellets (sawdust granules) that are intended to use in different boiler houses. Only wooden pellets with 6 or 8mm diameter can be used to run burners. You cannot use any other form of fuel but pellets to run the burner. Unique design of burners’ burning chambers allows to burn also industrial pellets.

The back-burning is the biggest danger risk at burners working procedure. Back-burning appears when usual pressure or draught conditions have changed in boiler’s combustion chamber. There are several reasons for such changes. In order to secure operational and fire safety the PV700a/PV1000a burners are equipped with following safety devices: ...
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 13/ 59 Fire safety water pressure control switch (pressostat). Enables to keep necessary water pressure in water reservoir and to ensure with that successful extinguishing procedure when needed. Pressostat switch allows starting the burner only if water supply is present and pressure exists.

PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 14/ 59 The boiler room where the burner is installed must fulfill all rules and recommendations given by local authorities. Boiler room must provide constant air supply of 1500 m³ per hour (ca. 1600 cm air inlet opening).
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 15/ 59 Boiler’s firebox depth L must be at least 2,5 times longer than the length of burner’s burning chamber. Thus minimal length of the firebox L for PV700 has to be 1500 mm and for PV1000 1800mm. The height of firebox must leave at least 100 mm space (H1) for ash below burning chamber.

PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 24/ 59 2.3 Water sprinkler Principal chart of water sprinkler installation is depicted in Figure 25. Water sprinkler is main safety element against back-burning. It is strongly recommended to install sprinkler system. Pressure switch allows starting the burner only if water supply is present.

A tailor made storage (silo) is recommended. All safety regulation must be taken into consideration according to the local laws.
3.1 GSM modem PV700a and PV1000a burners are ready to send burner’s error SMS messages up to 5 phone numbers. When error occurs the modem will send list with history of errors and statuses before error. If list is very long then so much information what has a room in message will be sent.
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 28/ 59 To insert the SIM card, the modem has to be disconnected from supply mains. To insert the card push it into a slot as long as its spring clicks and fixes the card. See Figure 30. To remove card push it in as long as spring clicks and pushes it out.
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 29/ 59 3.3 Flue gas fan The burner needs stable under-pressure in burning chamber for its correct operation. Simplest way to assure this is to use the flue gas fan between boiler and chimney. With flue gas fan the burner can control and hold constant under-pressure.
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 30/ 59 3.4 Oxygen amount sensor Oxygen amount sensor (oxygen sensor) allows the burner to keep pre-set oxygen level in flue gas, what increases the efficiency of the burning process. The oxygen sensor is connected to socket X23 as shown Figure If the sensor requires heater connection, it can be connected between T6 and B5.
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 31/ 59 3.5 Ash removal system The burner can control external ash removal auger and scraper motors via X25 connector. During burner’s cleaning cycle the X25 connector is powered and ash removal and scraper motors can be switched on via X25 connector’s L1 and L2.
PV700a / PV1000a pellet burners 32/ 59 4 Operation and service 4.1 User interface The burner is controlled via user interface on the front panel. 3 row LCD screen (1) displays main menu, submenus, event log and statuses. Yellow light (2) shows the existence of flame in burning chamber. If it blinks, the burner is out of normal operation.
4.4 Statuses and parameters PV700a/PV1000a pellet burner operates in many different states, which are called “Statuses” and which are displayed in user interface in STATUS menu (chapter 4.1). Burner changes its statuses based on input signals from sensors and user setup. The working statuses of the burner in typical order of succession are given in Table 9.
