3.1. Boiler description
The boiler of Pellet Compact Bio-Unit type is a low-temperature, steel water
boiler. It is a complete pellet system with boiler, pellet burner, feeding screw and
silo for heating. All the parts work perfectly with the higher efficiency and provide
constant operation with reliability.
The ignition and the operation are completely automatic. Because pellet contains
ash amount (<1%), it is required the often cleaning of the boiler to avoid
problems during the operation of the system.
3.2.Pellet burner
The pellet burners are developed and manufactured by Megatherm. Thanks to the
construction with a forward burning flame, this burner will give the most effective
combustion and it is easy to fit it to the boiler. There are 3 models available and
suitable with the boilers. The models are; Nani 35, MPB 50 and MPB 80. The heat
output of the burners are 10-35kW, 25-50kW and40-80kW and it is adjusted
depended on the heat losses and the boilers it is installed.

3.3.Feeding screw
The outer feeding screw provides the necessary fuel supply to the burner. The
one end inserted into the fuel tank (silo), while in the other there is the motor of
the screw, and the nozzle for the drop of pellet into the burner via a plastic
connection hose. The hose is made of a fusible plastic that melts for safety in
temperature of 100oC.
The hose must be sufficiently taut and have sufficient slope to permit free flow of
pellets and not block the fuel. The connection must be tight and clamped via the
provided clamps, for protection against return exhaust gases.
3.4.Silo
The silo is used to the store the pellet. The silo is placed above the boiler. It has
inner inclined sides to permit the free fall of fuel supply to the feeding screw
without leaving residues. It has a slide cover, window for fuel level inspection and
flange with neck stabilization of the screw. When filling the tank avoid entering
into the silo foreign objects such as stones, pieces of wood, plastic or metal
materials, etc., which can cause damage to the feeding screw.
4. FUELS
4.1. General
Pellet Compact Bio-Unit boilers are designed for pellet, with high efficiency,
reliability and easy maintenance. Additionally, it is a boiler that can work perfectly
with heating oil or gas burner as well. In case of burner changed it is may needed
an extra flange for the connection with the boiler.
4.2.Pellet
The pellet burner can operate only with high quality wood pellet. Any other fuel
can cause problem to the burner.
The pellet is 100% natural product and renewable energy source. It is
constructed by forest residues, woods, etc. The wood pellet is produced
exclusively from wood, without other additives and chemicals.
4.3.Oil and gas
The boiler can be operated with oil or gas with very good performance, with a
simple change of the burner.

6.3. Installation safety
3 bar safety kit
It consists of a collector, manometer, safety valve and automatic air vent. It is fixed to
the input of hot water. For safety reasons, if not installed any of the following
protective systems must be installed and the second valve.
Regularly check the correct operation of safety valves. In case of wear or damage,
replace them immediately with new ones.
3 bar safety kit.
By-pass system with load units
Boiler has to operate for a temperature difference 10 to 15oC and to insecure that the
temperature of the return water is over 50oC. This insures the smooth operation of
the boiler and generally the right operation, the constant performance and the long
lifetime.
To insure that the temperature difference will be between 10 and 15oC the installation
needs a recirculation pump and a 3-way thermostatic valve. This system insures the
right temperature of return water and also the right temperature of water at the
radiators.
The ESBE series LTC100 is a load unit designed to protect the boiler from return
temperatures that are too low. Maintaining a high and stable return temperature
enables a higher level of boiler efficiency, reduced tarring and increased life span of
the boiler. The integrated pump offers boiler protection and optimal tank loading.
The LTC100 is used in heating applications where solid fuel boilers are used to feed
storage tanks.
The load unit consists of an integrated pump and thermic valve, designed to make
both assembly and handling easy. The load unit is protected by an insulation shell
and is fitted with easily readable thermometers.
The valve regulates on two ports, which makes it easy to install and does not require
any balancing valve in the bypass pipe.
The LTC100 has an integrated auto-circulation function which makes the unit
operational even during power failure or pump failure. The circulation function is
blocked at delivery, but can easily be activated if required.
The valve contains a thermostat which begins to open connection A at an outgoing
mixed water temperature in connection ABof50°C,55°C,60°C,65°C,70°Cor75°C.
Connection B is fully closed when the temperature in connection A exceeds the
nominalopeningtemperaturewith10°C.

ESBE LTC 100, load unit.
Overheating protection system
This thermostatic recooling two-way valve is designed to protect central-heating heat
sources against overheating. The fill and drain valves in its brass body are controlled
by a thermostatic element. When the limit temperature is reached, the drain valve
opens, enabling the overheated water escape from the heat source into the sewer
system. At the same time, the filling valve opens to let cold water in from the mains.
As soon as the water temperature drops below the limit, both the valves close.
If the pressure in the mains could be above 6 bar, it is necessary to install a pressure
reducer at the inlet of cooling water. It should be installed as well if the pressure in
the heating system is too high after recooling. In such cases the pressure of the
reducing valve should be set approximately to a double value of the pressure
required in the heating system, not less than 2 bar.
Warning: This valve is NO substitution for a safety valve.

The T&P valve has a temperature sensor and provides double safety against
temperature (90oC) and pressure (3 bar). The output of the valve should be
connected with the drain for the disposal of the overheated water. The T&P valve
should be connected nearby to the boiler and necessary at the outlet. It provides
safety in case of closed type expansion tank installation but it is not replace the

Thermal protection of the boiler
The boiler should be operated within the supply and return water temperature
differences in the range of 10 –15°C.
Because of the lifecycle of the boiler, it should be operated with the return
watertemperaturenotlowerthan60°C.
In practice, it is difficult to meet this condition because the average
atmospheric conditions during the entire heating season “require” lower
settings.
In order to ensure the required return water temperature the following
solutions are suggested:
Higher settings on the boiler (possible only with low external temperatures).
Recommended
use of a mixing system based on the application of a three-way mixing valve
with a boiler circulator (the solution ensuring the proper temperature of both
the return water and the central heating system)
Boiler water requirements:
water for filling up boilers and heating installations should comply with the
requirements of the PN-93/C-04607 standard,
the boiler water should have the following parameters:
- pH value > 8.5
- total hardness < 20of
- free oxygen content < 0,05 mg/l
- chlorides content < 60 mg/l.
the used water treatment technology for filling up the heating installation
should comply with the requirements referred to above,

In the event of failing to comply with the above-mentioned requirements,
THERMOSTAHL may withdraw the guarantee for the installed boiler (boilers).
6.4. Chimney system
It should be installed as an acid-proof, double-wall, insulated chimney, or in
the case of chimneys made of brick, comply with the requirements of the
PN89/B-10425 standard; the technical parameters of the chimney should
ensure its protection against the effects of the condensate resulting from
cooling of the flue gas. Use of acid-proof chimney inserts (tin, stoneware, etc.)
is recommended.
The section of the chimney can be calculated following the formula provided
below:
D = 20(3+P)1/2 [m2]; where: D-diameter in mm, P-boiler power rating in kW.
The chimney diameter may not be less than the diameter of the flue.
Connecting several boilers to one common chimney flue is not recommended.
The connection of the boiler to the chimney should be thermally insulated and
run the shortest possible way with the least possible number of pipe elbows,
with the appropriate height of the flue towards the chimney.
The chimney should be freely open towards the top and built at least 1 m
above the roof,
The diameter of the flue gas duct should be selected (calculated) in
accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturers of the chimney
inserts, however it should not be less than the diameter of the boiler flue.
Installation of an inspection door for removing combustion residues should be
envisaged,
The entire length of the chimney should be maintained clean,
Before connection the boiler to the chimney the user should obtain a positive
opinionofthechimneycleaners’specialist.
A graph for selecting the chimney diameter in relation to the boiler power rating and the chimney height, including
the provided values of the chimney draught.

6.5.Electrical wiring
General information
The electrical installation must be done by a qualified electrician in accordance
with applicable regulations EN 60529 and EN 60335-1 and protection IP 40 and IP
44. The electrical installation of the boiler consists of an electrical panel, mounted
on the wall and distributes the necessary electrical power. It should be tight, and
wiring must be in metal or plastic channels.
The main power cable should pass through the electrical panel and secured safely
max 16A. The lighting system of the boiler must be on a separate circuit.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for damage caused by installation or
wear materials, devices, etc. that may have been caused by inadequate
grounding of system.
Connection of control panel
The control panel of the boiler operates with power 230V/50 Hz AC. Overvoltage
or frequent fluctuations may damage the operation panel and devices.
All devices connected to the panel and checked and adjusted by (ventilator,
motor, circulator). The circuit of the electric board is protected by circuit breaker
230 V / 2.5 A thermal fuse which activated at 95oC.
Pellet burner connection
The boiler has the ability to connect with any type pellet burner as long as the
conditions met with the manufacturer of the burner (depth and diameter
combustion chamber of the boiler). The connection instructions of the burner
accompany each burner.
Mention that each burner must always be accompanied by the control panel and
the sensor. The sensors connected to electronic panel, so placed the sensor into
the sensor well without oil. The sensor well is located in the front upper part of
the boiler.
7. GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
According the regulations DIN 4575 and 4756 the boiler needs periodic cleaning (if
necessary even daily) by qualified personnel to ensure an economic and ecologic
operation.
The boiler needs a maintenance cleaning at the end of winter season. A special care
needs to be taking with the smoke tubes cleaning, for avoiding deposits of lime and
salt that may destroy them. The burnt residues must be removed.
Ifacorrectmaintenanceisn’tdoneproperlythenproblemswouldarisesuchas:
Maintenance operations:
- Dismantling and cleaning of the burner.
- Opening of the door.
- Dismantling of the turbulators from the smoke tubes and cleaning them with
a special brush.
- Cleaning of the fire chamber with a special poker.
- Cleaning the ash.

- Checking the ceramic braids from the door and replacing them if damaged.
- Checking the refractory material of the door.
- Safety valves must be checked and replaced if damaged.
- Checking of water supply.
- Checking of the filter of the water supply.
- Checking and cleaning the glass from the eye slit.
PELLET COMPACT BIO-UNIT boiler can be equipped at request with different type
of flanges, for operations with different type of burners:
- Flange for pellet burner
- Flange for diesel burner (request)
- Flange for gas burner (request)
Back fire Protection Systems.
The feeding hose is made by a silicone material and on the intake pipe there is a
safety thermostat that will cut the power and stop the pellet feeding and burning.
When it is activated then after the thermostat cools down, you have to reset it by
pressing the reset button so that the burner may start working again. But first you
have to remove what caused the alarm.
8. TROUBLESHOOTING
Inthefollowingtableyou’llfindtheactionsyoumusttakewhenaproblemshould
arise. In the left column you may find the problem and in the right the solution for it.
Lack of electric
power
(the water in the
boiler is boiling)
In case the boiler produces also hot sanitary water
open a tap of hot water to reduce the temperature in
the boiler.
Lack of electric
power at the control
panel.
Check if the connections between the control panel
and the power source are correct and in good condition.
Check if the safety thermostat for backfire did not
switched off. You have to shut off the power and to reset the
thermostat manually, (danger for electric shock).
Thepumpdoesn’t
start
Check if the connections between the pump, the
sensor and the control panel are correct and in good
condition.
Check if the pump is not jammed; in this case switch
off the power, open the pump lid and unlock manually with a
screwdriver.
Check if the temperature probe in the boiler is well
positioned and if it is not rusted or deteriorated.
The warm water
doesn’treachthe
radiators
Check if the valves from the radiators are open and if
there is no air trapped in the installation (vent it off).
Check the hydraulic connections to be correct.
Check if the pump is working.
The boiler has
smoke leaks
Check if the chimney doesn’t have excessive soot
layers.
Check the chimney tightness.
Check if the chimney is in good condition.

Checkthepelletsquality(theyshouldn’tbewet).
Excessive layers of
soot are on the fire
chamber walls
Checkthepelletsquality(theyshouldn’tbewet)they
may jam the feeding system.
Do not use pellets made from different products such
as furniture industry made with glue or other kind of
adhesives, because they produce a lot of soot and will
obturated very quickly the smoke tubes increasing the
cleaning frequency from once a week to 1-2 times a day.
Clean the burner (the mobile tray) because ash has
accumulated inside of it and the air is allowed to enter the
burner so there will be no fire.
Fire is weak and the
pellets are below the
air holes in the
burner
Increase the feeding time from the timer until the
pellets level in the burner reaches the superior level in the
burner tray.
Watch it for a time so that the level will not be too high
and unburnt pellets may result.
The eye slit glass
gets excessively
dirty
Check if there is not too much soot on the smoke tubes,
which can cause a smoke stop in the fire chamber, stop
the pellets feeding and clean the turbulators and the
smoke tubes with the cleaning brush.
Hot sanitary water
with insufficient
temperature
Increase the temperature of the pump thermostat and
then check at the tap.
Check that the flame to be always lively.
Eventual problems of hydraulic installation (check the
pump that pumps hot water into the sanitary water-
accumulating tank).
Smoke inside the
silo
There is a problem with the chimney:
The turbulators were not cleaned and the smoke
tubes diameter is obturated. If the turbulators are damaged
they need replacement;
The elbows and the T pipes of the chimney need to be
cleaned.
