1. General information
This manual for the KIPI air heater, which is automatically fueled with solid fuel, pellet,
constitutes the Technical and Operation Documentation. Document is an integral part of the
device 1 . Detailed analysis of the instructions will allow the user to learn about the structure of
the device, installation and operation tips. Respecting the manufacturer's instructions in the
manual will ensure correct and safe operation of the heater.
Connection and first running of the heater, as well as possible installation of the
burner
must be performed by an authorized and qualified service center
The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused as a result
defective installation, inconsistent with these instructions.
Works related to the installation and use of the heater should begin with:
- checking the heater's housing in case of damage caused by transport,
- verification of the content of the delivery, both in terms of the presence of all
components and their compliance (comparison with nameplates),
- getting acquainted with the operating instructions for the heater, burner and regulator.
The KIPI air heater may only be used for its intended purpose.Any other use will be considered
improper by the manufacturer and dangerous. The heater is an integral part of the ROTARY
KIPI burner and the regulatorecoMax 920 TOUCH. The heater and its components are under
warranty. Specific warranty conditions are given by the manufacturer in this manual, with
warranty card included.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from the selection of
others
components than those included in the heater kit - in particular another burner,
feeder or regulator.
The manufacturer allows the use of a different type of container than the suggested one

5
KIPI tank, but minimum feeder capacity is maintained (indicated in the burner operating man-
ual).The heater operating manual provides general information about the burner and regulator.
Detailed information on these components has been attached.
In the event of a breakdown or incorrect operation of the device, turn it off
immediately and disconnect the electrical supply. Any attempts to repair it yourself
will break manufacturer's warranty conditions. Any repairs on the heater and its components
should be performed by the manufacturer's authorized service, using original spare parts.
1. Description and purpose of the device
The KIPI air heater is a heat generator powered automatically with solid fuel, pellets. The
device has been designed for internal use to heat the air. The principle of operation is based on
use forced air circulation, which is provided by a centrifugal blower fan. The air stream passing
through the heater absorbs heat energy through circulations near the heat source. As a result,
the air leaves the heater at elevated temperature (ryc. 1.) .
The heat is generated as a consequence of burning pellets in the combustion chamber. By
means of a centrifugal blowing fan mounted in the lower part device, air is blown into the
device. Air is taken in directly from the room with the heater 3 . The heater uses only fresh air,
or a mixture of fresh air and air returning from heated rooms.
The heat energy of exhaust fumes is transferred to the injected air through the process natural
and forced convection. Air and fumes are separated in airtight channels, as a result there is no
pollution of the heated air. After losing heat energy, exhaust fumes are removed through a duct
connected to the chimney system. The diameter of the chimney is important, which must be
large enough to provide effective exhaust gas removal. Ash, created as a result of burning, is
discharged to the ash pan drawer from where it can be removed easily (see cleaning the ash
pan). Heat is transferred through adjustable air outlet duct (located in the upper part of the
heater), distributing air directly to the sides or to other rooms through supply ducts equipped
with dampers.
After reaching the required air temperature in the room, the heater when heating one room:
 using a thermostat - it will turn off,
 not using the thermostat - it will continue to work,
when heating several rooms:

6
 using a thermostat in each of them - it will turn off,
 when using a thermostat in several rooms - dampers
installed on distribution ducts to these rooms will remain closed, at the same time the heater
will continue to heat rooms without thermostats,
 without using the thermostat, in any of the rooms - it will continue the work.

1. Fuel specification
The burner, which is an integral part of the air heater, is designed to burn wood biomass in
the form of pellets. Recommended for best performance the use of certified pellets meeting the
following quality requirements (Table 1).
Fraction
granules
Diameter [mm]
6±1,8±1
Length [mm]
3,15 ÷ 40
Dust content [%]
≤ 1
Bulk density [kg / m3]
≥ 600
Moisture [%]
≤ 10
Calorific value [MJ / kg]
16,5÷19
Ash [%]
≤ 0,7
Tab. 1. Quality requirements of pellets intended to power the heater.
In case of changing the fuel batch it is necessary to perform the "feeder test".
This action is important for the optimal operation of the heater. When refilling the fuel
in the tank, particular attention should be paid to undesirable elements in the form of mechanical
impurities, e.g. rock fragments. Any solid contamination, regardless of its size, may damage
the heater, including the pellet feeder, burner or ash removal system, thus leading to the failure
of the entire device..
The manufacturer is not responsible for any resulting damagefrom
failure to follow the above recommendations.
