Gasifying boilers VIGAS
1. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Thermal boilers VIGAS are designed for combustion of dry wood material, starting from
sawdust up to logs in the length according to the dimensions of gasification chamber,
maximum 20 cm. Sawdust, chippings, splinters and cuttings must be burn together with logs.
Thermal boiler, VIGAS UD 29 is designed for burning brown coal. It is also possible to use dry
wooden material as a substitute fuel.
Boilers are welded from 4- 6 mm steel sheets. Inner boiler sheets that have contact with
boiler waste gases are 6 mm thick, others are made of 4 mm sheet. Heat exchanger is
welded from steel pipes, 57x 5 mm. Exterior boiler shell is made of 0.8 mm sheet. Thermal
insulation of the boiler is made of insulation material, NOBASIL, 20 and 50 mm thick. Boiler
waste gases go away through steel neck to chimney.
Inner boiler space consists of gasification chamber, where fuel is dried and gasified. Then
created gas goes through fireproof /concrete/ nozzle into combustion chamber, where it
burns with the help of secondary air. Boiler waste gasses are intensively cooled in
exchanger. Wood that is not burnt must be removed from combustion chamber. The boiler has a
lighting up damper that is controled by operating rod at the front part of boiler.
In order the boiler complies with the requirements for non-demanding operation, it is equipped
with AK 3000 control unit that is situated in the upper part of boiler. The used system of control
allows very effective combustion of various kinds of fuel. AK 3000 control with grpahical display,
in basic configuration allows:
to control temperature of heated water in range 60 ÷ 85 °C
smooth and automatic control of forced draft fan according to required output and
to connect discharge fan
to connect circulation pump
to connect gases thermometer
to connect and to control boiler by space temperature regulator
to connect extended regulation (EXPANDER) via AK BUS
to connect module with Ethernet interface and SD-card for data saving and concsequtive
evaluation via PC
grpahical scheme indication of hydraulic connection as requested
real time set
In configuration VIGAS Lambda Control also allows :
Utilizes informations from lambda sensor of oxygen overflow in gases, to control the
chimney flap of primary and secundary air.
Gases thermometer as a standard
Boilers are equiped with thermal fuse that ensures disconnection of forced draft fan if boiler
is overheated above 100 0C and safety exchanger against overheating according to the
standard, STN EN 303/5. Its recommended, by producer, to buy a release valve Honeywell TS
130 ¾” for safety exchanger against over heating.

THERMOMETER
(without discharge fan and lambda sensor)
The advantage of the gases thermometer is elimination of the maximal gases temperature, if it will
be reached, it will effect the speed drop of fan. As consequence will be increased efficiency
followed by low fuel consumption. In configuration with storage tank, its used for boiler to
shotdown when burn-out all fuel, water boiler temperature in tank has no influence to shotdown.

WARNING
Graphical control unit AK 3000 is used to control all types of VIGAS
boilers. It is important, software settings must be same as type of
the boiler. In deactivated boiler status „OFF“ boiler type is
indicated on the display, that is equal to boiler nominal output. For
correct boiler operation, boiler type must match with boiler
type marked on boiler label.
In case of control unit exchange, always must be AK 3000
checked!!!

WARNING
The output contol of the pump will be changed by hydraulic
connection. It is important, that software setting of hydraulic pump
match the setting of the boiler in connection with central heating
system. Basic memory of control contains 4 schematics. It is
possible to add more schematics if necessary. Schematics that are
used for additional module „EXPANDER“ are delivered on mini

Scheme 1 :
Scheme is dedicated for boiler with storage tank. „LADOMAT“
provides reverse water protection. Pump is connected to boiler
control and working over 40 oC. Requested temperature is possible
to set up to 90 oC. T3 contact on mother board AK 3000 S is used
for connection to thermometer PT 1000, which is able to measure
temperature in stogare tank.
Warning: It is not possible to connect indoor thermostat to T3
contact.
Scheme 2 :
Scheme is dedicated to central heating systems, where reverse
water protection provides external control system. Pump is
connected to the control and it is working pulse in dependence of
boiler water temperature. T3 contact on mother board is used to
connect indoor thermostat.
Scheme 3 :
Scheme with 3-way thermostatic valve. Pump is connected to the
control and it is working pulse in dependence of boiler water
temperature. T3 contact on mother board is used to connect indoor
thermostat.
Scheme 4 :
Scheme is set as a standard. Pump is connected to the control and
it is working pulse in dependence of boiler water temperature. T3
contact on mother board is used to connect indoor thermostat.
Funcionality of each system can be check in service settings by
symbols indicated on display. Press „ENTER“ and selected
system will be activated.
