34 The tilting angle (between the auger s pipe axis and the horizontal plane) influences directly its production rate, i.e. the fuel feeding rate that it will provide at certain operation mode. Therefore if this angle is changed it will be necessary to re-adjust the burner in order to provide certain heating output FILLING UP THE FUEL TRANSPORT AUGER The fuel transport auger of pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> has to be connected to a standard power supply and the fuel hopper has to be filled with fuel. Then should you wait until the pellets start to drop from the auger s outlet. After that the auger has to be plugged off and then plugged in to the burner s main module, as the coupling is positioned on the burner s right side. After that the system can be switched on. The manufacture company reserves its right to make changes over the system s construction, without obligation to inform its customers CONNECTING OF THE BOILER TO THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY The power supplying of the system, consisting of hot water boiler from series Bisolid and pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>, should be performed by the power supply cable attached to the product s delivery kit. The connection to the main power supply must be implemented only from authorized electrical specialist. The manufacture company reserves its right to make changes over the presented modules construction, without obligation to inform its customers.

36 6. INITIALIZATION OF THE SYSTEM TO OPERATION The system, consisting of hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid and automated pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>, must be initiated to operation only by specialized company, authorized for such activities MAIN REQUIREMENTS ABOUT THE USED FUEL During the initialization of hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid is necessary to comply the following requirements to the used fuel. To ensure complete burning only dry fuel has to be used that complies with the requirements for reliable operation, presented in the pellet burner s manual book. The manufacture company recommends storing the fuel in dry and ventilated premises. Fuel storing near the system (boiler and burner) at distance less than 400 mm is strictly forbidden. The optimal recommended distance, recommended by the manufacture company, is at least 1000 mm. The preferably the fuel should be stored in a neighbor premise. All fire safety requirements must be observed during installation of the system, consisting of hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid and automated pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> and storage of the fuel. It is recommended to place a fire-extinguisher at easy accessible and visible place. The heating systems with opened expansion tank allow direct contact between the heating (circulations) liquid and the surrounding atmosphere. During the heating season the water absorbs oxygen (through the contact surface between the water and the air), which increases the corrosive action of the circulations liquid over the steel surfaces, as water evaporation can also occur. For refilling only water complying with the circulations liquids requirements, according to standard EN , should be used. Constant water quantity in the heating system must be maintained during the heating season. When refilling the system with water air intake should be prevented. The water should be used only for its designation. It is recommended to check the water quantity in the heating installation on every 14 days. The system should be refilled with water only when the hot water boiler has been cooled. This is necessary in order to protect the steel made heat exchanger from thermal tensions and damage. In case the installation will not be used and there is risk of local freezing of the circulations water, it is recommended to drain the water out. Also the presence of water in the heating installation and the boiler protects the steel surfaces from contact with the oxygen, respectively from corrosion. 36

37 6.2. INITIALIZATION TO OPERATION OF THE BOILER BISOLID GENERAL CONDITIONS There are the following general conditions which must be observed during the initialization of pellet boiler from series Bisolid in operation: The hot water pellet boiler servicing/handling must be performed by observing the requirements presented in the operation and maintenance manual. Any intervention over the system operation that might endanger the health of the servicing personal is strictly forbidden. During operation of the system it must be periodically checked by the servicing personal/customer. The user must not perform any repairs over the system s modules. If a problem occurs during operation ask for servicing assistance from the relevant retail company; Operation with heating output over the boiler s nominal output is not allowed. The ash residues left from the burning process have to be gathered in fire proof container equipped with covers and after cooling to ambient temperature it has to be dumped at proper for the purpose places. The ash remaining from wood pellets utilization can be also used for soil fertilization. The system, consisting of hot water boiler from series Bisolid and pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> is controlled by a module, positioned on the burner. It is equipped with display and keyboard which serve for adjustment of the system operation parameters. More information is presented in the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> manual book. Components of the interface control panel and their functions (see Figure 5.11): Switch START serves to submit START/STOP signal to the main module of the pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>, which performs the relevant function through the burner s controller. Room thermostat connector serves to connect a programmable room thermostat that can control the system s operation. Such thermostat is optional equipment and is not delivered with the system s standard kit. Communication connector connector for connecting the pellet burner controller to the boiler. Pellet burner connector serves to connect the burner cable to the boiler. Emergency thermostat serves to protect the hot water pellet boiler from overheating. It is factory adjusted to stop the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> power supply, in case the circulations water temperature is exceeded above the limit (adjusted in the factory to 95 o C). Switch POWER serves for central switching of the hot water boiler from series Bisolid and of the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>. Electrical fuse central fuse positioned on the boiler s control panel. Power supply used to connect the central power supply cable and to provide electric power to the system POWERING OF THE PELLET BOILER FROM SERIES BISOLID The pellet boiler must be connected to the electric installation by observing the safety technique rules and requirements. The boiler is standard delivered with a power cable equipped with coupling used for connecting the boiler. 37

38 The fuel hopper must be filled with wood pellets, in order the feeding device to transport them to the burner zone SWITCHING OF THE SYSTEM ON System s switching on can be performed by the switch POWER, positioned on the hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid. At operation assignment, defined by the assigned circulations water temperature in the boiler (and by assignment from room thermostat if connected), the automated pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> activates and transits to automatic stand by mode pressing the switch START starts it. In case the START was preliminary switched on, the pellet burner starts immediately. If the system has been operated (or is in the so called hot reserve ), but the power supply (electricity) has been interrupted, it starts automatically when the power supply recovers. At initial start of the burner and insufficient chimney draught (for example when the chimney height is not enough and if it is dirty) there is possibility for excessive smoking from the boiler covers zone, positioned over the combustion chamber and the convective zone, or/and from the combustion door sealing. Therefore it is recommended to check the door proper closing, its sealing, the covers and also the chimney condition. The same situation may occur during transition seasons autumn and spring, when the natural chimney draught is low, due to the high environment temperature. If the ignition pellets doze is not adjusted correctly a smoking through the boiler s unsealed parts might occur. In such case it is necessary to adjust the ignition (primary) pellets doze of the burner to be performed by servicing technician. During the fuel ignition mode a module activates electric heating element (heater), positioned under the burner s tilted fire-grate. This component heats the fuel until it fires and the flame indicates by the photo-sensor of the burner. Detail information about the burner s construction and operation is presented in the pellet burner Bisolid GP xx_b hc> manual. The automated pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> operates with preliminary assigned algorithm, installed in the burner s control module. The burner s controller parameters adjustment must be performed only by trained servicing technician PARAMETERS FOR BOILER OPERATION ADJUSTMENT The hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid operation mode is determined directly by the burner s control module settings, defining the assigned circulations water temperature in the boiler. The boiler s inlet water temperature has to be also taken in to account, as it influences the system operation, its reliability and efficiency. 38

39 The manufacture company guarantees efficient and reliable operation of the system: hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid and automated pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>, ONLY within the system s operation range, presented in Table 4.2 from this manual PARAMETERS FOR ADJUSTMENT OF PELLET BURNER BISOLID GP XX_B HC> The parameters defining the operation mode and the heating output of the burner and respectively of the boiler are presented in the operation and installation manual of the pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>. The meaning, functions and how to change these parameters must be explained to the end user, in order to provide flexible and optimal usage of the appliance. In case that the hot water pellet boiler model is Bisolid 18, then the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP 25_B hc> has to be adjusted not to exceed the nominal heating output of the boiler. NOTES: The heating output levels and adjustment procedures are presented in the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> manual book. The parameters used for adjustment of the automated pellet burner operation are presented in its manual book these parameters must be changed only by trained servicing technician. The heating output adjustment of the system: hot water pellet boiler from series Bisolid and pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>, can be performed by initial adjustment of the burner s operation parameters has to be performed by authorized servicing technician. The manufacture company reserves its right to change the automated pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> settings without obligation to inform its customers NOMINAL OPERATION MODE OF THE BOILER After completing the process to start the pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> (the pellets are successfully fired) and the hot water boiler from series Bisolid has heated the circulations water in the installation, and the installation has been equal-tempered, it can be stated that the system is in nominal operation mode. The final adjustments of the modules operation should be performed in such mode. The so called hot test of the appliance and the heating installation should be performed in nominal heating output mode, according to the acting regulations. NOTES: If a circulations pump is used for transferring the heat energy from the hot water pellet boiler to the heating installation, the reverse (cooled) water temperature should not be 39

40 lower than 60 o C, because there is possibility for overcooling of the flue gasses, respectively for water vapors condensation as a product from the fuel combustion. Continues operation of the appliance below its minimum heating output is not recommended, as presented in Table 4.1, because such operation modes are inefficient and not economic. If necessary to operate the system for longer time, especially the hot water boiler from series Bisolid, in heating output mode lower than the minimum, it is recommended to install and connect a heat accumulator (buffer), in order to ensure its efficient, economic and reliable operation. During the initial start up of the hot water boiler from series Bisolid, water vapours condensation over the heat exchanger internal surfaces might occur. This one-time (single time) process does not cause troubles to the appliance operation ADJUSTMENT OF THE BOILER HEATING OUTPUT The pellet boiler Bisolid heating output adjustment can be performed by adjusting the heating output level of the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>. For detail information read the burner s manual book. In case that the used wood pellets type has to be changed (for example the change of class of pellets) it might be necessary to change the burner s heating output level DECREASING THE BOILER HEATING OUTPUT It can be performed by decreasing the burner s heating output level. For detail information read the burner s manual book. Do not decrease the pellet burner s heating output below the system s minimum heating output, because such modes decrease its efficiency and reliability INCREASING THE BOILER HEATING OUTPUT It can be performed by increasing the burner s heating output level. For detail information read the burner s manual book. Do not increase the burner s heating output above the system s nominal output, because in such modes its efficiency and reliability are decreased and there is possibility for excessive heat loading of its modules and components, which might lead to emergency situations and thermal deformations ADJUSTMENT OF THE COMBUSTION PROCESS The pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> is factory adjusted to optimal operation parameters and it is not necessary to re-adjust it. The burning process adjustment has to be performed by trained and authorized servicing technician. The burning process, from the pellet burner, adjustment must provide flue gas parameters that comply with the requirements of standard EN 303-5:2012 and with the system operation data. 40

41 6.7. SWITCHING THE BOILER OPERATION OFF The system operation can be stopped by stopping the pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>. Detailed information is presented in the pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> manual book. Another method to stop the system operation is by using the switch START, positioned on the interface panel of the hot water boiler from series Bisolid. To restore the system operation presses this switch again. It is forbidden to stop the appliance by the switch POWER during operation! The recommended stopping by the switch START or by the burner display module provides controlled and safe stopping. After stop command the fans operation ensure readiness for next starting and preserve the photo-sensor from damage. The stopping mode of the pellet burner with manual cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> is presented in details in its operation and installation manual book. In case the system should be stopped entire cleaning of the heat exchanger s walls and the burner s combustion zone from the ash should be performed, because the ash has corrosive influence over the steel surfaces, which decreases the appliance life. At the end of the heating season not only cleaning but also prophylaxis has to be performed by specialized servicing company. Observance of these procedures ensures long life of the system s modules and their reliable operation EMERGENCY BOILER SHUT DOWN During operation of the system some of the modules (hot water boiler or pellet burner) might transit to emergency mode. Some emergencies might be indicated by the relevant module sensors which should perform automatic prevention procedures. In case of emergency situation overheating of the hot water boiler from series Bisolid its emergency thermostat activates, positioned on the boiler s interface panel. The cause for the emergency must be identified and the relevant measures taken. The thermostat must be switched back manually, by unscrewing its protection cover cap and pressing its button, after that the cover cap must be screwed again. The pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc must be reset to by switching off and then back on the button POWER, positioned on the boiler s interface panel. In case of emergency situation with the automated pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> it transits to emergency mode, that stops its operation, followed by indication on the display panel. In such cases the indicated trouble code has to be checked in the burner s manual book and the relevant corrective measures should be taken, as described in its manual book. 41

42 In case of emergency situation that is not presented in the automated pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> manual, neither in this manual, should you ask for assistance by the retail company which services and maintains the system SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE PELLET BOILER BISOLID It is necessary the user to know in details presented manuals for installation, operation and maintenance of the pellet boiler from series Bisolid and automated pellet burner with manually cleaning from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc>. The end user has to have information on operating modes of the system, its adjustment and control and the methodic for servicing of system s modules as follows: How to load hopper with pellets - fuel is filled into a hopper from which the fuel transport auger takes and transfer them to the burner s main module. How to clean the boiler form the ash. Method of cleaning the ash, located on the grate - after system shutdown and cooling of the boiler and burner to safe temperatures of their surfaces, should open the door of the combustion chamber, to remove the grate, to clean the ash and grate, back them into place, and then close the door of the combustion chamber. Ash must be cleaned with personal protective equipment - sleeves, gloves and appropriate clothing. It is recommended the end user periodically (at least once every 72 hours of operation) to exclude pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> as it is described in its manual to wait enough time (it is recommended to wait about 30 minutes) until the boiler to cool to the safe temperatures on its surface and then to clean the internal heat exchanger surfaces of the ash, to export outside the boiler ash collected in the container, located at the bottom of the heat exchanger, then in reverse order to close the door and covers of the boiler, to clean the burner and then to switch on it in the manner described in its manual. The combustion chamber door closes by the use of a handle. It is recommended not to use too much force in order to preserve the sealing rope elasticity. To open the door turn the handle clockwise (lift the handle up to open it). Figure 6.1. Cleaning of the ash from the hot water boiler walls. 42

43 Figure 6.2. Cleaning of the ash from the hot water boiler. Open the combustion chamber door and take out the ash container, positioned at the bottom of the hot water boiler. The ash has to be gathered in fire-proof containers (or other proper containers), then place the ash tray back to its original position and close the door. The boiler covers have to be placed back too. The regular cleaning of the hot water pellet boiler heat exchanging surfaces and the pellet burner burning zone provide reliable and economic operation of the appliances and conditions for long-term usage of the system s modules. The cleaning of pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> should be performed as needed and operating working conditions from once a week to once a day. The number and frequency of cleaning of the pellet burner depend largely on the quality of the used wood pellets. The fuel is necessary to meet the requirements of standard EN ISO :2014, class ENplus-A1. The pellet burner from series Bisolid GP xx_b hc> is cleaned in the following cases: During the operation of the pellet burner: - The pellet burner can be cleaned and at its operation. In this way of cleaning is discarded small dose unburned fuel, but the advantage is that there is no need any waiting time, i.e., cleaning can be done immediately on the customer request. The burner is programmed to continue working after this type of cleaning. Cleaning of the pellet burner without interrupting the operation of the device: - When a device does not operate assigned to it by the program, for example daily or weekly thermostat. - When a device does not operate and is in standby mode due to the achieved temperature. When the pellet burner is switch off: 43
