SPECIFICATIONS AND TECHNICAL DATA Specifications Stoves and pellet stoves are devices built to work with good quality wood pellets only (see par. 3 fuel). Hydro models must be connected to the plumbing system. Technical data (see attached sheet) Rear connection dimensions (see attached sheet) Product identification data (see attached sheet)
FUEL General notes The pellet stove is designed to burn wood pellets only. Wood pellets are a fuel obtained from the pressing of sawdust timber, extracted from the processing and transformation residues of dried wood material. The compactness of the product over time is guaranteed by a natural origin substance contained in the wood: lignin.
INSTALLATION General notes The heating system or appliance must be installed in order not to damage the building and other systems. The installer must strictly comply with standard UNI 10683:2012. 4.1.1 Installation in the presence of several appliances. The presence of several appliances powered with different fuels, as well as hoods with or without extractor, must be evaluated during preventive checks and during the start-up test in order to detect any variation compared to the design conditions or any aspect that cannot be detected during the design phase.
Minimum safety distances The following figures show the minimum safety distances which must always be guaranteed. 4.2.1 Corner installation (mm) 4.2.2 Wall installation (mm) Safety distances from flammable material: Minimum distance in air from the flammable rear wall: P= 200 Minimum distance in air from the flammable side wall: P= 200 Frontal distance from flammable material:...
Flooring protection In the event of valuable flooring or flooring that is sensitive to heat, moisture or is flammable, a floor protection must be used (i.e. sheet steel, marble or tile slabs). Whichever type of protection selected, it must protrude at least 300 mm from the front, at least 150 mm from the sides of the stove, must withstand the weight of the stove and have a thickness of at least 2 mm (Fig.
Fume exhaust duct 4.5.1 General notes CAUTION: the pellet stove is not like other stoves. Fume draft is forced thanks to a fan that maintains the pressure in the combustion chamber and slight pressure around the exhaust duct. Therefore, you must verify that the latter is completely watertight and properly installed, both from the point of view of function and safety.
4.5.3 Holes for exhaust tube passage on walls or roof: recommended insulation and diameter Once the location of the stove has been decided (section 4.1), you will have to drill the hole for passage of the fume exhaust tube. This varies depending on the type of installation (therefore on the exhaust tube diameter, see 4.5.2) and on the type of wall or roof to be crossed (table 3).
4.6 Using an external fume duct An external fume duct can be used only if it meets the following requirements: • Only insulated tubes (double wall) in stainless steel, secured to the building (Fig.13) should be used. • An inspection area should be created at the base of the duct for performing periodic checks and maintenance.
ASSEMBLY General notes Here are some general recommendations to follow in order to prevent accidents or damage to the product: • Unpacking and installation must be performed by at least two people. • All handling operations must be carried out using appropriate means and in full compliance with safety regulations.
Water connection Connection of the stove to the hydraulic system must be exclusively performed by qualified personnel, who is able to perfectly perform the installation, complying with the regulations in force in the Country of installation. If the installation of the stove requires interaction with another pre-existing system equipped with another heating device (gas boiler, methane boiler, gasoline boiler, etc.), contacting qualified personnel able to respond to the conformity of the system, according to the requirements of the law in force regarding the subject, is more recommended.
5.5.1 Indicative hydraulic diagram heating only Caution: to prevent the heating system from having to be regularly cleaned it is best to install a magnetic sludge remover, this filter aids routine maintenance, increases boiler life span, aid removal of impurities and increased global efficiency of the system.
All local regulations, including those relating to national and European regulations, must be observed when installing the unit. Improper installation or use of the device can result in forfeiture of the warranty. Do not use the unit as an incinerator or in any other way other than that for which it was designed. Do not use liquid fuels.
Console description The console displays information about stove operating status. Access the menu to view various types of displays and adjust the settings available depending on the level of access. Depending on the operating mode, the displays may have different meanings based on their position on the display.
Below is a list of meanings of LEDs found on control panels: The LED is on when it is connected to an external room thermostat and it is Room thermostat LED closed. The LED switches on when the programmable thermostat is activated; Chrono LED meaning, if user parameter 03-01-01 enables chrono, it is different from off.
First phase. Preparation The message "START" will appear on the display. In this phase, which lasts for about one minute, the pellet glow plug activates and combustion chamber forced ventilation starts along with activation of the fume extraction fan. Second phase. Ignition After the preparation phase, the display will show the message "LOAD PELLETS"...
