1.2 How your 'S' Model Wood Pellet Boiler Operates
The 'S' Model User Interface has been designed to allow the User to carry out the basic operational
and maintenance functions while an advanced digital control systems operates in the background
controlling combustion, temperature control and modulation within the pre-determined safety
parameters. Each operational ‘cycle’ has several distinct phases :
Introduction E-Compact 'S'
Page 5
www.woodco-energy.com
Ignition
Run Mode Modulation
Standby / Extinguishing
Ignition –Ignition is the phase where the initial ignition of the fuel takes place and develops a fire
bed with enough heat and intensity to enter Run Mode. Sub-stages within the Ignition Stage are :
Pre-Heating –During this stage the heating resistance heats up to a temperature
to ignite fuel.
Pre-Load –A starting charge of fuel is introduced into the burner.
Variable Ignition –Ignition of the fuel is attempted by directing hot air at the fuel.
If a flame is detected by the end of this stage it enters the last stage of ignition.
Stabilisation –This final ignition stage aids further development of the flame
before allowing the system to enter Run Mode.
Run Mode –The system runs at full power until it reaches a pre-determined water temperature
below the set point. Once it exceeds this temperature it enters the Modulation Phase.
Modulation –This phase allows the system to slow down and find the optimum running
conditions and temperature to match the heat load of the property. Once the water temperature
finally reaches the set point the system enters Standby stage.
Standby / Extinguishing –Standby is reached when there is no further heat demand by the
property and extinguishing of the fire bed is required to stop further heat generation. Once the
fire bed has been extinguished the system waits in Standby until such time as the water
temperature drops below a pre-determined level below the set point. Once this temperature is
reached the cycle is repeated.

Warnings & Guarantee Conditions
www.woodco-energy.com
“The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas”
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the
authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building,
from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an
offence to acquire an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in
an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from the controls which generally apply in the smoke control
area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to
authorise smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in England. In
Scotland and Wales this power rests with Ministers in the devolved administrations for those
countries. Separate legislation, the Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in Northern
Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement that fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas
have been "authorised" in Regulations and that appliances used to burn solid fuel in those areas
(other than "authorised" fuels) have been exempted by an Order made and signed by the
Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations.
Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here :

3. Pre-Installation Considerations
3.1. Pellets
Wood pellets are manufactured by hot-extruding compressed sawdust
which is produced during the working of natural dried wood. The
compactness of the material comes from the lignin which is contained
in the wood itself, and allows the production of pellets without the use
of glues or binders.
The market offers different types of pellet with characteristics which
vary depending on what mixture of woods is used. The diameter varies
between 6 mm and 8 mm, with a standard length in the range 5 mm to
30 mm. Good quality pellets have a density which varies between 600
kg/m3 and 750 kg/m3, with a moisture content which varies from 5%
to 8% by weight.
Besides being an ecological fuel (exploiting timber residues to the
maximum and achieving cleaner combustion than is possible with fossil
fuels), pellets also have technical advantages. While good-quality
timber has a calorific power of 4.4 kW/kg (with 15% moisture,
therefore after about 18 months' seasoning), the equivalent figure for
pellets is 4,9 kW/kg.
To ensure good combustion, the pellets must be stored in an area that
is free of humidity and protected from dirt. The pellets are usually
supplied in 10 kg. bags, so storing them is very convenient.
Good quality pellets ensure good combustion, thus lowering the
emission of harmful agents into the atmosphere.
The poorer the quality of the fuel, the more
frequently will intervention be necessary for
cleaning the internal parts, such as the grate and
the combustion chamber.
The main certification of quality for pellets in the European market are
Enplus-A1 these ensure respect of:
Calorific power: 4.9 kW/kg
Water content: max 10%of weight
Percentage of ashes: max 0,5% of weight
Diameter: 6mm
Length: max 30mm
Contents: 100% untreated wood, with no added bonding
substances (bark percentage 5% max)
Packaging: in sacks made from ecologically compatible or
biologically decomposing material.
Pre-Installation Considerations E-Compact 'S'

www.woodco-energy.com © WOODCO Energy

The Manufacturer recommends using certified fuel in its appliances to Enplus-
A1.
The use of fuel of inferior quality or not conforming to the specification given
above compromises the running of your appliance and can therefore lead to the
termination of the guarantee and of the manufacturer's responsibility for the
product.
All domestic pellet appliances run exclusively on pellets with a diameter of 6mm
3.2. CONSIDERATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT!
Installation and assembly of the appliance must be carried out by suitably trained personnel.
The appliance must be installed in a suitable position to allow the normal operations of opening
and ordinary maintenance.
The site must be:
•capable of providing the environmental conditions for operation
•equipped with power supply 230V50 Hz (EN73-23)
•capable of connecting to an adequate system for smoke discharge
•provided with external ventilation (if located indoors)
•provided with an earth connection complying with CEI 64-8
The appliance must be connected to a flue pipe or an internal or external vertical duct
conforming to current standards UNI7129 -7131 9615.
The boiler must be positioned in such a way that the power isolation fuse is accessible.
IMPORTANT!
The boiler must be connected to a flue pipe or a vertical duct which can discharge
the fumes at the highest point of the building.
The fumes are derived from the combustion of wood products, and if they come
into contact with or close to walls, they can cause smoke staining.
Also take care because the fumes are very hot and almost invisible, and can cause
burns on contact.
It is recommended that Carbon Monoxide monitors are located in living areas
and within the room containing the heating appliance (in the case of indoor
models).

areas when burning Enplus-A1 wood pellets
© WOODCO Energy

3.3 OPERATING AREA
For proper functioning, the appliance should be positioned in a
location where it is able to take in the air necessary for combustion of
the pellets (about 40 m3/h must be available), as laid down in the
standard governing the installation and in accordance with local
national standards. All vents on the external casing of the boiler must
be un-obstructed at all times as these allow air for combustion and for
cooling to enter the appliance enclosure. Heavy snowfall can also
obstruct the air vents and cause the appliance to not burn clean.
Smoke emanating from the flue is a symptom of this. Snow must be
cleared from around the appliance at the earliest opportunity.
Where the appliance is to be installed indoors it is not
permissible to install the appliance where another
heating appliance is installed (fireplace, stove etc.)
which does not have its own independent air intake.
Locating the appliance in a room with an explosive
atmosphere, e.g. workshop or tool shed, is
prohibited.
The floor of the room where the appliance is to be
installed must be strong enough to take its weight.
If the walls are not flammable, position the appliance with a clearance
to the rear of at least 45 cm.
For flammable walls, keep a minimum distance of 45 cm at the rear,
30 cm on the sides and 150 cm at the front.
If the flooring is made of wood, provide a floor
protection surface in compliance with current
national standards.

3.4. CONNECTION OF THE FLUE
The manufacturer recommends that the Therminox range of stainless steel insulated flue pipe
is used with this product. A full range of straight, offset, elbow and ‘T’ elements is available to
overcome any obstruction which the flue should avoid. The proper draught conditions in the
flue is critical for the efficient working of wood pellet boilers. The flue can exit the boiler
house/garage through the roof or through the wall by using a bend on the flue. The
combustion chamber works in negative pressure. The smoke duct for the discharge of fumes
will also be under negative when connected to an efficient flue pipe as directed.
All sections of the flue must be capable of inspection and
removable to enable periodic internal cleaning.
Position the appliance bearing in mind all the instructions and considerations above.
IMPORTANT!
All 90 degree changes of direction in the flue pipe
must be either removable or capable of inspection.
THE FLUE PIPE RUN MUST NOT INCLUDE MORE THAN 1 METRES OF HORIZONTAL PIPE AND
MUST NOT HAVE MORE THAN TWO 90°ELBOWS (INCLUDING ‘T’s).IT IS ALSO ADVISABLE
NOT TO EXCEED 5 METRES IN LENGTH WITH THE PIPE Ø 100 mm
The manufacturer recommends the use of 100mm Therminox flue for use with this
appliance.

3.5. OPERATING PROBLEMS CAUSED BY DRAUGHT DEFECTS IN THE
FLUE
Of all the weather and geographical conditions which affect the
operation of a flue pipe (rain, fog, snow, altitude a.s.l., exposure to
sunlight, direction of facing), the wind is unquestionably the most
decisive. In fact, along with thermal depression caused by the
difference in temperature inside and outside of the chimney, there is
another type of depression or over-pressure: dynamic pressure caused
by the wind. An updraft always increases depression and hence
draught. A crosswind increases depression provided the cowl has been
installed properly. A downdraft always decreases depression, at times
inverting it.
Besides the direction and force of the wind, the position of the flue and
the cowl with respect to the roof of the building and the surrounding
landscape is important.
The wind also influences the operation of the chimney indirectly by
creating high-pressure and low-pressure zones, not only outside the
building but inside as well. In rooms directly exposed to the wind (2),
an indoor high-pressure area can be created which can augment the
draught in boilers, stoves and fireplaces, but it can be counteracted by
the external high pressure if the cowl is situated on the side exposed to
the wind (1).On the other hand, in the rooms on the opposite side
from the direction of the wind (3), a dynamic depression can be
created which competes with the natural thermal depression
developed by the chimney, but this can be compensated for
(sometimes) by locating the flue on the opposite side from the
direction of the wind (4).
E.g. Downdraft at 45°of
8m/sec. Overpressure of
17 Pa
E.g. Crosswind 2 :
8m/sec. Depression of
30Pa
IMPORTANT!
The operation of the pellet boiler is noticeably
sensitive to the conformation and position of the flue
which is adopted.
Hazardous conditions can only be overcome by suitable
setting-up of the boiler carried out by qualified
personnel certified by the manufacturer.
E-Compact 'S'

Pre-Installation Considerations
www.woodco-energy.com © WOODCO Energy

3.6 PLUMBING CONNECTION
IMPORTANT!
The connection of the boiler to the plumbing system
must be carried out ONLY by specialized personnel who
are capable of carrying out installation properly, in
compliance with current standards in the country of
installation.
If installation of the boiler will involve interaction with
another, pre-existing system complete with heating
equipment (gas boiler, methane boiler, fuel oil boiler,
etc.), it is even more advisable to call in qualified
personnel, who subsequently will be responsible for
conformity of the system with current applicable law.
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage to persons
or things in the event of failed or incorrect operation if the
aforementioned warnings are not complied with.
For connection of the plumbing system to the appliance, the user
should refer to chapter 4, INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY; specifically,
paragraph 4.5, CONNECTION TO PLUMBING SYSTEM

4.2. PREPARING THE BASE
Careful planning at an early stage will greatly help the installation process and make sure that all
the required clearances are adhered to for servicing and that any potential issues with the routing
of the flue can be resolved.
The 'S' Model pellet boiler should be positioned on a concrete plinth at least 50mm high and
should project a min. 100mm beyond the sides and the rear of the appliance and at least 600mm
to the front. The plinth must be capable of supporting the weight of the appliance when full with
fuel and the plumbing system has been filled with water.

4.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical installations should only be carried out by suitably qualified and
certified electricians.If in doubt on any issue relating to the electrical
connections on the appliance contact Technical Support or your Local Dealer for
guidance before carrying out any connections.
The boiler must be supplied with a 230V50 Hz electrical supply via a two pole isolation switch
rated for Overvoltage Category III and protected with a 6A circuit breaker. Also, the unit shall
have a 30mA RCD installed into the mains supply. It is recommended that a power isolation
switch is located adjacent to the boiler to isolate the power during servicing and maintenance
but also out of the reach of children and to prevent accidental turning off of the mains power.
Only authorized personnel may open the control panel on the boiler. Any Interference
with the wiring in the control panel will invalidate the warranty. The boiler and
complete plumbing system must be adequately earthed and bonded in accordance with
local Building Regulations and Bye- Laws.
Room thermostats shall be supplied/controlled by safety extra low voltage.
