Installation and operating manual
1.3. Functionality of the electrostatic precipitator
The exodraft lter is an electrostatic precipitator. The lter reduces the number of ne and ultrane particles in a ue
gas ow by creating an electrostatic eld between the charging electrode and the collection electrode.
The electrostataic eld in the exodraft ESP is generated by a charging electrode connected to a high voltage generator
which ionizes the gas in its surroundings and as a result charges the particles and delivers an electrostataic eld
strong enough to push the charged particles towards a collection electrode.
While the electrostataic eld is on, the precipitated particles will remain attached to the collection electrode. When
the temperature and oxygen inside the lter is on a certain level, most of the attached particles will self-ignite and
burn o in a complete combustion as a part of the normal operation.
The lter’s self-cleaning functionality will remove the remaining particles inside the lter.

Installation and operating manual
1.4. Automatic on/o
The exodraft ESP lter has a built-in temperature sensor that makes it possible to control the start and stop function
automatically.
After the replace is lit, the ESP lter will activate as soon as the temperature sensor records an increase in temperature.
Depending on the chimney application, the start delay will be 10-30 seconds.
If the exodraft ESP lter is powered o and the power supply turned on, when the temperature in the chimney is
below 40 °C, a 10 second cleaning process will commence before activating the lter and Draftbooster.
If the exodraft ESP lter is powered o and the power supply turned on, when the temperature in the chimney is
above 40 °C, the lter and Draftbooster will activate immediately without the cleaning function.
When no fuel is added to the wood stove, the chimney temperature will start to decrease. Once the temperature
drops below 40 °C, the ESP lter continues to operate for 30 minutes, after which sleep mode is engaged.
ATTENTION: When the replace and chimney are cold, it may, depending on relevant factors (stove model, chimney
size, fuel type etc.), be necessary to turn the exodraft ESP lter o and then back on at the power supply (wall plug/
remote control) to get the full benet of the ventilators mechanical draft.
1.5. Self-cleaning function
The exodraft ESP lter is equipped with an automatic cleaning function that periodically cleans the lter during
operation. The user may be able to hear the lter cleaning in some situations as the self-cleaning procedure is a
mechanical movement inside the lter.
If the lter is restarted and the replace is cold, the automatic cleaning process will run for 10 seconds.
When the replace is in use the cleaning procedure is initiated after 5 hours, only starting when the temperature
drops below 80 °C.
1.6. Manual on/o
The exodraft ESP lter can be turned o at the wall outlet when the chimney is cold, and then turned on again. This
gives the user the benet of the Draftbooster’s mechanical draft while the chimney is cold (a cold chimney usually
means poor natural draft conditions inside the chimney – hence the need for mechanical draft).

Installation and operating manual
4. User operation instructions
4.1. User operation
Always load the stove with dry and clean wood only and in accordance with the stove manual. NEVER
USE THE STOVE WITH THE FILTER TURNED OFF OR THE POWERCABLE NOT PLUGGED IN. This will result in
permanent damage to the lter.
For operation, the lter must be connected to a 230V power outlet with a PE connection and turned on by activating
the outlet switch as well as the main switch on the lter itself.
When the lter is turned on, it will start the automatic cleaning process which lasts for 10 seconds.
Attention: The automatic cleaning procedure may be heard as a mechanical noise in some situations. When the
automatic cleaning process has nished, it takes approximately 5 seconds for the lter and Draftbooster to be back
up and running.
If the chimney temperature near the lter does not exceed 40 °C for a period of 1 hour, the lter will engage sleep/
standby mode to reduce power consumption. The lter will remain in sleep mode until the replace is lit and the
temperature exceeds 40 °C, the temperature rises 5 °C within 10min or the power supply is turned o and then back
on.
When it is desirable to have the Draftbooster running on a cold replace for additional chimney draft (e.g. when
lighting the replace), the lter must be restarted (power o/on). This can be done, for instance, at rst start-up in
the morning.
NOTE
Please note that even if the electrostatic precipitator malfunctions, the Draftbooster will still run.
In case of a power failure (no power to the lter), air and smoke still have free passage through the lter, meaning
the stove is safe to use.
CAUTION
Do not overheat the stove. Small deposits of soot can kindle and start a chimney re, which may cause
dangerously high temperatures in the chimney. If you have experienced a chimney re, you must ensure
that the mechanical and electrical functions of the ESP are inspected. If defects or irregularities are found,
these must be repaired before further use of the ESP or the stove.
