Product description
An Exodraft ESP-10 particle lter is designed as an electrostatic precipitator with a built-in chimney fan
for mounting on top of the chimney. The lter is equipped with a self-cleaning function (patented) and
designed to reduce the emissions from wood-burning appliances as well as facilitate easier lighting and
refueling.
The ESP-10 comes with an integrated isolation switch and a 5-metre cable with open wires for plug
installation.
The lter is designed for closed wood-burning replaces (stoves) with a nominal heat output of maximum
10 kW.
Incorrect ring may result in problems with soot, chimney res, etc. which might damage the product.
Please check out this site for advice about lighting and maintaining a re:
www.exodraft.com
Scope of supply
• ESP-10 with 5-metre connection cable (with open wires)
• Installation manual and user instructions
• Labels for chimney sweep, indicating that power to the lter must be cut off
before cleaning the chimney to be placed at replace and cleaning locations.
A mounting adapter for mounting the Exodraft ESP-10 on the chimney must be ordered separately to t the
existing chimney system.

Functionality of the electrostatic precipitator
The Exodraft lter is an electrostatic precipitator. The lter reduces the number of ne and ultrane par-
ticles in a ue gas ow by creating an electrostatic eld between the charging electrode and the collection
electrode.
The electrostataic eld in the ESP-10 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
electrostatic 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 elec-
trode. When the temperature and oxygen inside the lter is on a certain level, most of the attached particles
will self-ignite and burn off 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.

Automatic on/off
The Exodraft ESP-10 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-10 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.
When no fuel is added to the wood stove, the chimney temperature will start to decrease. Once the tempe-
rature drops below 40 °C, the ESP-10 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-10 lter off
and then back on at the power supply to get the full benet of the ventilators mechanical draft.
Self-cleaning function
The Exodraft ESP-10 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 3-5 seconds.
When the replace is in use the cleaning procedure is initiated after 5 hours, only starting when the re-
place is being refueld.

Technical specications
The RS fan is designed for vertical discharge. It is available in to colors.
The body and casing are manufactured in stainless steel and equipped with a aluminum vane.
Particle lter Vane
ESP-10-STEEL
ESP-10-BLACK Aluminium vane
All models can be opened for service and cleaning purposes.
The ESP-10 vane has been developed to solve draught problems by creating a mechanical draught on
chimney, while the electrostatic precipitator lter reduces the number of ne and ultrane particles in a ue
gas ow.
The ESP-10 lter has been designed for closed wood-burning replaces and stoves with a nominal heat
output of maximum 10 kW.. The lter rst reaches its full efciency after 10-20 res or burning of approx.
15-20 kg of rewood.
The ESP-10 lter can tolerate ue gas temperatures up to 400°C.

Precautions and user instructions
These instructions, applicable standards and relevant safety procedures from the manufacturer must be
followed and at the same time the ofcial provisions in force in the country, where the product is installed,
must be observed.
Support system
Prior to installation of a chimney fan, it must be determined if the chimney can safely carry the weight of the
chimney fan.
A steel chimney should be well supported at the roof penetration point. If the chimney extends high above
the roof, the chimney and the fan should be secured. The manufacturer’s instructions must be followed.
Brick chimneys do not usually need any kind of support to carry the weight of the chimney fan.
System type
Fireplaces and wood stoves used in private dwellings normally operate in a relatively stable environment,
where no major pressure uctuations occur. However, o ensure an optimal ring, the particle lter is equip-
ped with a vane, to create a constant draft in the chimney independently the weather outside and on the
stage of the ring process.

Before installation onto a chimney
Before the installation for the ESP-10, it must be ensured that the electrode and the temperature sensor are
in the correct position. If the electrode or temperature sensor is out of its correct position, the particle lter
will not function correctly.
ATTENTION! The power supply must always be off,
when the particle lters are being inspected or serviced.
Aligning the electrode
The ESP-10 comes with the charging electrode already installed. When installing the ESP-10, the charging
electrode should hang straight down inside the smoke gas side.
The position of the electrode can be determined by removing the screw and open the lid on the top of the
smoke side, look down into the lter and observe whether or not the electrode is hanging straight down
inside the lter. Should the electrode not be aligned properly, please realign or replace the electrode.
Temperature sensor position
Before mounting the ESP-10 lter on the chimney, please make sure that the temperature sensor is in posi-
tion. The temperature sensor is located at the bottom of the lter and should be sticking out from bottom
plate, approximately 3 cm.

chimney.
Note! The brackets may be necessary if the
lters wobbles.
However, please note that the lter’s adapter
incl. ttings/brackets, must not sit in tension in
the chimney pipe.
*See the guide for the mounting of the brackets.
6
To avoid rainwater from entering the ange
- the slots and around the ange must be sealed
with silicone.
7
Connect the ESP-10 power cable to the power
outlet and turn on the power switch on the lter.
See the chapter Electrical installation for more
information.
ATTENTION! The chimney sweep must be made aware that the chimney is equipped with an ESP-10 Filter!
The supplied high voltage warning label must be attached to all inspection/cleaning hatches in the chimney system.
