7.5 Analogue room stat BS-01 Installation site Fix the room stat on an internal wall at a height of approx. 1m - 1.5m. The most effective room is the one that is most frequently occupied. In that room, the radiators must not be fitted with thermostatic radiator valves (valves must be fully turned on).
Operating the heating system BS-01 Initial commissioning Initial commissioning and basic adjustment of the system may only be carried out by GUNTAMATIC engineers or authorised GUNTAMATIC agents. Day-to-day operation Clean the heating system precisely according to the instructions in the section Cleaning/Care. The amount of...
8.1 Heating system checks PH-01 Checking system pressure The operating pressure is normally between 1 bar and 2.5 bar. If the system pressure is too low, malfunctions may result. If necessary top up the water in the heating system. Completely draining and refilling the system or topping up a system filled with anti-freeze or treated water must only be carried out by a heating engineer.
8.2 Fuels PH-01 8.2.1 Woodchips PH-01 To achieve a smooth heating of the furnace, the quality of the fuel has to be right. Only with high-quality wood chips should help to ensure a reliable and trouble-free operation of the plant. The price should be evaluated always behind the quality requirements and it is therefore strongly advised to use only good quality.
8.2.2 pellets BC-01 There are a number of points to observe when ordering wood pellets in order to ensure that they are of perfect quality. Reliable and trouble-free operation of the boiler and the conveying systems can only be guaranteed with high-quality pellets.
8.2.3 Grain fuel PC-01 Advanced cultivation, harvesting storage methods combined with optimum conveying and metering qualities make grain economical convenient fuel. Fundamentally, all types of feed grain are suitable. The best suited to combustion are grain types with husks and a low protein nitrogen content such as triticale.
8.2.4 Miscanthus PH-01 The dried straw is harvested annually from the 3rd year on from April to May using a forage harvester. The crop should have a maximum moisture content of 20% when harvested. Miscanthus has to be stored dry. As the fusion point of miscanthus ash (clinker formation) is around 900°...
8.3 Filling the fuel store PH-01 First-time filling For the optimal storage property, the storeroom has to be absolutely dry. For the first filling and after the first depletion you haven´t fill the store room complete. The fuel for the time being only to a maximum of 50 cm high pour into the storage room and spread evenly over the agitator and the spring arms.
8.4 Combustion air setting PH-01 After every change of fuel or after the boiler has not been used for an extended period, the combustion air setting should be checked/reset. The adjuster lever for the combustion air is located on the right above the right-hand ash box (see illustrations below).
8.5 Emptying the ash PH-01 Glowing embers can cause fires. Only remove the ash from the boiler or store it in non-combustible containers. Touching from hot parts could lead to burned skin injure! Before the ash cleaning let it cool down on minimum a half an hour The ash boxes have to be emptied at intervals varying from every couple of days to 20 weeks depending on the amount of...
Boiler The sophisticated cleaning system on a GUNTAMATIC heating system means that regular cleaning work is substantially reduced. All that is required is regular emptying of the ash. Depending on the utilization of ash and the heating system must be carried out interim cleaning and general cleaning, which are described on the following pages carefully.
Page 41
9.1 Interim cleaning PH-01 Attention risk of injury ! Cause of safety reasons the maintenance or cleaning works could just leaded, if the construction is separated from the network. Information Interim cleaning must be carried out at intervals of between 1 week and 3 months depending on the fuel burned, the quantity of fuel used and how dirty the boiler is, and involves the following steps.
9.2 Complete cleaning PH-01 Attention! Risk of injury Cause of safety reasons the maintenance or cleaning works could just leaded, if the construction is separated from the network. Information The general cleaning is executed with minimum on every half a year.
