1. GENERAL INFORMATION Read the user’s manual carefully before activating burner. PellasX burner requires installation according to this user’s manual. Following advice included in this USER’S MANUAL will guarantee safe functioning and installation of the device. All doubts and ambiguities as to condition of equipment or given functions of parts of burner should be reported to the seller in order to get explanations.
• case when burner is stored over years from its production date environmental conditions not similar to above description, before installing it should be subject to activating - test by an authorized service person. To prove proper quality and safety of a burner, the above inspection will be documented by service person in the guarantee card.
2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION PellasX is a brand under which since 2001 burners for biomass have been produced. These products are characterized with stepless regulation of settings allowing for usage in all types of ovens or heating boilers. In case when exchange of burner is done in an old boiler, then it is not necessary to make changes in existing installation.

2.2. Quality requirements for pellets fuel In table below given requirements as to quality of pellet fuel are shown. Using fuel which complies to DIN 51731 or DIN PLUS certification or meet the rules of EN-14961-2 norm, extends longevity of burner. The pellet storage location should be dry and well-ventilated. It is important that prior to the hopper filling the pellet temperature is equal to the boiler room temperature.

2.5. Safety systems PellasX burners are equipped with following safety systems, which effectively protect the user against flashback of fire: 1. Burner temperature sensor Once the burner themperature rise over 90°C (setting: alarm temperatures may be modified depending on the conditions in which the device operates i.e. bakery ovens or dryers; please note that such changes can only be done by an authorized service person), the sensor changes work mode into burning off mode, at the same time it switches off the external feeder and sets the fan for 100% power.
3. INSTALLATION 3.1. Chimney The parameters of chimney should be adjusted to requirements of heating device, of which fumes are led away to chimney. The chimney can be made of ceramics or steel. Chimney should be clean, and its draft sufficient for PellasX burner operating with heating device in scope of preset power output.

3.3. Fuel hopper Fuel hopper can be made of any non-flammable material, i.e. steel. It can have any capacity and should be located in proper distance from burner (Pic.9). In lower part of fuel hopper a spiral feeder in covering pipe is mounted. The slope of feeder should not be bigger than 45° in relation to the floor.
Fuel feeder connects fuel hopper with burner. It is made of 60,3mm galvanized steel pipe (1). Inside of the pipe, there is a steel spiral (2), driven by 230VAC motorgear (3). The motorgear is to be connected with the burner controller by its cable with plug (see electrical scheme). Lower part of the feeder should be mounted in lower part of fuel hop.
Type 2 feeder assembling (Pic. 6): 1. Connect both pipes (1) and (2) with the bolt M8 (3) and nut M8 (4); 2. Insert the pin (6) in the shaft hole (8), and then screw the spiral (5) onto the pin (6)and tighten with the nut (7);...
Type 3 feeder assembling (Pic. 7): 1. Connect the pipes (1), (2), (3) with two connectors (7) by tightening fixing screws; 2. Inset the pin (8) into the shaft hole (9), then screw the spiral (4) on the pin (8).Secure the spiral by tightening M12 nut (10) on pin;...
4. BURNER AND FEEDER ASSEMBLY Pic. 9. Scheme of installation in boiler room. Burner and feeder are delivered in ready-made state, ready for installing. They are packed in cardboard boxes, which have to be unpacked with care. ATTENTION! Before starting dismantling or disassembly entire power supply must be disconnected.
4.1. Installation in boiler 4.1.1. Mounting scheme for burners from group 1 (R16, R26, R35) • Put thermal insulation plate (2) on burner’s flange [insulation is not part of delivery]; • Fit burner’s pipe into opening in boiler. Fix the burner mounting brackets using M8 screws and washers (1);...
Pic. 11. Installation of group 2 burner in boiler. ATTENTION! When assembling burner in boiler which does not have outer thermo-isolation in place of mounting, isolation pad should be used to protect burner against influence of boiler temperature. 4.2. Mounting of pellet inlet stub In burners from group 2, pellet inlet stub needs to be mounted in rectangular opening on top of burner, and pushed all the way down for correct and secured position.
4.3. Connecting the feeder • Attach with joint flexible pouring pipe, long enough to connect with upper part of the feeder, no less however than 30 cm from vertical pouring axis of burner. Second part of flexible pipe insert onto vertical pipe of chimney for pouring fuel of burner and tighten it with a band. •...

6.5. Safety regulations referring to installation and exploitation of burner Before starting installation and exploitation of burner, the chimney shaft and boiler to which burner will be connected should be thoroughly cleaned (see page 12). Check if there is enough liquid in heating installation, and if pouring device works correctly.
7. SERVICE OF DEVICES ATTENTION! Servicing of devices can only be conducted after switching off electrical power of a burner and a boiler. 7.1. Photosensor Photosensor in a burner should be cleaned regularly with a damp, soft rug, similarly to oil or gas burners.
7.2. Electrical igniter replacement When the igniter does not heat even though the “firing up” message is shown, it is probably damaged. To replace the igniter, remove the burner cover. On the left side of the fan, there is a steel pipe, where the electric igniter is located. Disconnect the igniter electric cables from the terminal block, and remove the igniter by rotating counter clockwse.
8. TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Burner does not fire up the fuel: Reasons: • No fuel – check the fuel hopper and the feeder, if it is not blocked; • Too small startup dose – check the startup dose; • Burnt igniter – check the igniter; •...
