Fuel; Installation - Pelltech PV 100a User Manual

Fuel

PV 100a uses premium wooden pellets as fuel. Wood pellets are concentrated and homogenized
fuel made from sawdust and cutter shavings. Pellets are pressed with high temperature. No extra
materials are added, pellets are held together by a natural ingredient found in wood – lignin. Pellets
are CO2-neutral, renewable fuel. Pellets must be stored in a dry and ventilated room. It is
recommended to wear a respirator when handling pellets.
Refilling must be carried out before the storage runs empty. In case it happened, burner has to be
restarted and the loading time can be up to 20 minutes that external auger has enough time to refill
itself.
