(Fireman). The user should immediately report the situation to an authorized service. ● This original User Manual is intended for users of GHT boilers of 22 and 40 kW.
Important information related to the safety of boiler operation and use. Information relevant to the operation as recommended by the manufacturer. The manufacturer of the boiler is a company: METAL-FACH Heating Technology Jacek Kucharewicz Information and pictograms The following information pictograms have been used to mark dangerous places on the device.
CONFIRMED BY THE DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY AND ARE MARKED WITH "CE" MARK Biomass boilers manufactured by METAL-FACH Technika Grzewcza are characterized by high thermal efficiency (average efficiency ≥88.4%) and emission factors in accordance with PN-EN 303-5:2012 standard, and are in accordance with the EU Commission Regulation No 2015/1189 of 28 April 2015, the so-called Ecodesign, according to the marking on the nameplate placed on the casing of each boiler.
(e.g. electrostatic filter) or third order measures in the form of the participation of a METAL-FACH Heating Technician in measurement and service work may be necessary to meet the BImSchV requirements. Please contact METAL-FACH...

13. The electrical installation may be operated by an authorised electrician. Residual risk Although METAL-FACH Technika Grzewcza takes responsibility for the design and construction in order to eliminate the danger, some risk elements during the operation of the boiler are unavoidable.
When presenting the residual risk, the boiler is considered to be a machine that has been designed and manufactured according to the state of the art and in accordance with the product documentation approved by the manufacturer until production starts. Residual risk assessment When following recommendations such as: •...
Changing the fuel to one other than the one recommended by the manufacturer is not allowed and the responsibility for such action lies solely with the User. The consequences of incorrect operation of the boiler resulting from the above do not constitute grounds for considering the incorrect operation of the boiler as a physical defect of the product.
Altereco B1 type wood chips are delivered to the customer in plastic bags weighing about 14 kg and transported on pallets (fig. 15), the packaging method protects them from excessive moisture, but does not release them from storage under a roof, in order to avoid the direct impact of adverse weather conditions that may reduce fuel quality.
Relationship between water content and fuel humidity The amount of water in fuels is given as either water content or fuel humidity. The water content (in %) refers to the moisture content of the fuel or the fresh matter (LSD) and the moisture content of the fuel to the completely dry matter (SS).
Definition of size classes of wood chips according to EN ISO 17225-4 (a) The number in the size class refers to the maximum particle size in the main fraction. The particles must fit into a round mesh sieve (ISO 17827-1) of the size determined for that class in mm. The lowest possible property class must be given. (b) The length and area of the section should be determined only for particles in the coarse fraction.
i.e. pressed into a cylindrical shape. The raw material is stored and transported in perfectly dry conditions. The plant operator must also store the pellets in a perfectly dry place. This is the only way to guarantee correct and efficient combustion. Requirements for wood pellets For combustion in the boiler, wood pellets with a diameter of 6 mm and a length of 3.15...
NOTE! METAL-FACH Technika Grzewcza shall not be liable for damage caused by the use of fuel other than that recommended by the manufacturer, or for a decrease in the thermal efficiency of the boiler as a result of using the wrong fuel, thus it...
3. construction and technical data of the boiler Boilers of GHT series are welded steel sheet structures. Fuel combustion takes place in the combustion chamber . Above the chamber there are ceramic catalysts (picture 14), whose task is to afterburning the gases and other volatile compounds that escape during combustion, reducing their emission outside (they help in more accurate afterburning of fuel).

Before setting up and connecting the boiler, it is necessary to check that all components are operational and that the boiler is fully equipped for operation. 4.3. Installation of the boiler in the boiler room The boiler doesn't need a foundation. It is placed directly on the floor. It should be exactly levelled! The strength of the floor as well as fire protection conditions must be taken into account.
"gravity bypass", enabling the use of the central heating system in the event of a possible pump failure. NOTE! It is possible to connect a GHT boiler (not applicable to boilers with output above 100kW)
equipped with a factory supply, control or fuel feeder system (for automatic boilers) in a closed type installation, provided that a safety valve, diaphragm vessel, control and measurement fittings (pressure gauge, thermometer, etc.) are installed, and that the requirements for boiler operation are met, in particular the recommended operating temperature of 45-75°C, maximum permitted temperature of 85°C, maximum permitted operating pressure 1.5 bar.

Solid fuel boilers can also operate in closed heating systems. Specially adapted boilers are used for this purpose, which are equipped with devices for receiving excess heat, protecting the system against overheating. ● In this system, a closed diaphragm pressure vessel is installed on the site of the expansion vessel overflow.
(controller manual). METAL-FACH Technika Grzewcza is not responsible for incorrect controller settings by the customer. In case of problems, please contact an authorized company service or installer.
6.2 Filling with water Fill the system with water before lighting the fire on the plank. Water to supply boilers must meet the standards in accordance with PN-85/C-04601. In order to check if the system has been completely filled with water, unscrew the through-hole valve on the signalling pipe for a few seconds.
6.5.2 Service activities performed by the User ● Cleaning the boiler from ash at least once every two days especially during the heating period. ● Cleaning of the feeder as well as the burner can be carried out after burning out the embers and disconnected from the power supply boiler.
Do not drain water from the central heating system during standstill. Unless it is required for repair or assembly work. In order to prolong the life of the boiler it is recommended to leave the boiler in an open position for the time of standstill, enabling free air flow through its interior, and consequently drying.
