UNI 10683 (Heat generators powered by wood or other solid fuels. Verification, installation, control and maintenance) The laws and regulations in force in the country of use of the Magikal product may provide for higher safety requirements or identify risks other than those listed in the manual.
Installation External air intake and fume exhaust For proper operation, the thermo-stove must be positioned in a place where the air necessary for combustion can flow. Air inflow must take place directly through permanent openings (according to UNI 10683) applied on outside-facing walls having the following features: ...

within the heating unit to 70° (Th21 - Ih21) and combustion is regulated on the basis of this value. When there is no longer any request, the Sanitary Function ends at timer expiration (T68) set to 20sec by default, repositioning the heating unit thermostat to the original temperature. It is also advisable to use the sanitary function with heating unit temperatures not below 65°, in order to optimize production of hot water and avoid the risk of cold outflow.

The operation of the Garda thermo-stove is a priority compared to the work of the combined boiler, since the most economical fuel is pellet-operated. The control unit is able to automatically manage the work between the two machines by connecting a 3- way motorized valve.

Connect the terminals of the 3-way motorized valve P2 to the Aux1 output of the electronic control unit System heating logic: By setting parameter P26 = 2, you choose the configuration shown in the figure above. The circulator is active if the water temperature in the boiler (S1) exceeds the value of the Th19 thermostat. To avoid water freezing, the circulator is activated if water temperature in the boiler drops below 5°...
System heating logic: If the temperature in boiler S1 is greater than the Pump activation thermostat equal to 50° (Th19), the system heats the water of the Puffer if the difference between S1 and S2 is greater than 5°C (Th57). If the water temperature in the boiler (S1) exceeds the 80°...

Circulator defective. If the water temperature in the boiler is > 55°C, there is a voltage of 230Volt (VAC) between the two contacts N and L of the circulator terminal board. If this Voltage is not detected, make the same measurement directly on terminals 7 and 8 of the control unit to check if there is a problem on the external connection.

D. Pressure transducer not working. Measure the supply voltage of the pressure transducer on contacts 37 and 39 of the electronic control unit. If the Voltage is different from 5 Volt (VDC), replace the electronic control unit that does not supply the pressure transducer. Otherwise, measure the voltage of the pressure transducer signal on contacts 38 (+) and 39 (-) of the electronic control unit.

NOTES If the interruption of the power supply is less than 1 minute, the boiler returns to the previous operating state when it was interrupted. If the interruption of the power supply is between 1 and 50 minutes, when power is restored, the boiler defaults to Power Recovery state, by performing the shutdown phase and then automatically turning on again.
