User Settings Depending On The Pellet That Has Been Used - LASIAN AUDAX 6 KW User And Installation Manual

If the fuel does not come properly marked, the corresponding certificate should be required.
Facing a not identified pellet, or if we consider for various reasons that it could changed its characteristics, we can
make use of the following tips to know if the fuel is suitable or not for its use:
AVOID the use of pellets with different dimensions to those indicated.
AVOID the use of pellet too hard or too soft.
AVOID the use of pellet which show granules of not typical colours of wood, or excessively dark.
AVOID the use of fuel containing powder of mixed sawdust, resins or chemical, additional or binder
substances.
AVOID the use of wet fuel.
The choice of unsuitable fuel causes:
- Accumulation of fuel in the burner.
- Bad combustion.
- Burner and gas flue duct dirtying.
- Increase in fuel consumption.
- Decrease in performance.
- Does not guarantee the normal operation of the stove.
- Glass dirt.
- Production of unburned granules.
- Need for more cleaning and maintenance of the stove.
The presence of moisture in the fuel increases the volume of the capsules and breaks them causing:
- Malfunctions of the load system.
- Accumulation of fuel in the burner.
- Bad combustion.
The use of fuel not according to the manufacturer's instructions can damage the stove and
compromise its performance, resulting in the invalidation of the warranty and in the end of the
liability of the manufacturer on the product.

4.3 USER SETTINGS DEPENDING ON THE PELLET THAT HAS BEEN USED

As we have already explained in the previous section is clear that when the fuel that we use in the stove is
changed, this behavior may be different, and although the electronic board have a system which adjusts the
changes in conditions to achieve always a good combustion, it is advisable to observe the behavior of the stove
every time you start a new batch of fuel.
The characteristic that has more influence in the way the pellet is burned is the percentage of ash left when is
burned. Normally, a higher percentage will need more air to make the combustion, even it could be necessary to
reduce the fuel quantity, if the pellet requires more time than usual to be burnt completely.
It could also be the opposite case, although it is less usual, that provided fuel to burns faster than normal.
In both cases the user has, within what we call "USER MENU 1", two functions which readjust the stove to burn in
the best way possible the pellet that is being used at every time ( see paragraphs "6.1.6- PELLET LOAD
CALIBRATION" and "6.1.7- COMBUSTION FAN CALIBRATION").
To establish some criteria to help the user to choose how to use these settings, we can apply the following criteria:

If the stove is not able to remain switched on continuously for 8-12 hours because the pellet accumulates
in the burner, this is because the air supplied by the fan is not enough for the amount of pellets that we are
loading.
In this case, we can do two things:
Increasing the amount of supplied air with positive steps of the fan (check 6.1.7).
-
Decreasing the fuel load with negative steps in pellet calibration (check 6.1.6).
