Hot-Air Heating Systems from EWI-THERM Heating systems made by EWI-THERM are based on state-of-the-art, advanced hot-air technology. Their significant benefits facilitate the decision for low-cost heating and disposal. By using hot-air heating systems, rooms of almost any size can be heated in a fast, effective and environment-friendly way. Heat-up occurs from zero, as the energy is supplied directly and without any detours to the room air. Long start-up times or energy loss due to heat transfers to intermediate fl uids, such as water, are avoided. Thanks to the short heat-up time, energy is only produced when required. In connection with the automatic charging system, the heating can also be operated over night and the heating output can be minimized. Why do you not heat operating fl oors quickly and easily with wooden remainders from your own workshop and save expensive fuels such as oil or gas? Too inconvenient? Certainly not. We have continuously further developed our technology. As a result, the desired room temperature, for example, can be simply adjusted through the room thermostat. Even when the furnace was regulated down through the thermostat, i.e. with minimum energy output, the advanced control system ensures an effi cient, extremely clean and smokeless combustion. Very high effi ciency, effective fuel utilization, robust design, simple operation and the proven compliance with the legally prescribed limit values according to the 1st German Federal Immission Control Act (1st BImSchV) make EWI-THERM hot-air heating systems to a top product of hot-air technology. We can guarantee compliance with the limit values, even if they become more stringent! Is this possible with any other hot-air heating system? EWI-THERM hot-air heating system, type Optimal VII. Heating output up to 198 kw, designed for rooms up to 5,600 m³ (as per DIN). Fully automatic control of the hot-air heating system and the EWI-THERM silo discharge
EWI-THERM hot-air heating systems are future-proof. This is confirmed by the legislative bodies and the responsible trade supervisory authorities. Wooden remainders represent raw materials that can be utilized in an economically and ecologically reasonable manner. The prerequisites are: A. Wooden remainders, such as saw dust, chipboard residues or wooden pieces in a sufficient quantity. B. A technology that converts almost the whole combustion material to energy according to the principle of wood gasification and consequently enables a smokeless, extremely low-emission combustion in compliance with the limit values stipulated by 1st BImSchV. C. Previous coordination with the responsible district chimney sweep master about the combustion system to be installed TÜV Rheinland (Rhineland Technical Inspection Authority) confirms that all EWI-THERM hot-air heating systems of the series Optimal-E II VII are allowed to be fired with combustibles of Category 6 (painted, lacquered or coated wood, as well as its wastes without halogenorganic compounds and without a wood preservative) and combustibles of Category 7 (plywood, chipboards or other glued wood as well as its wastes without halogen-organic compounds and without a wood preservative) in compliance with the German Federal Immission Control Act.* Dusts of any type are not suitable for combustion, since they might cause deflagration *German Environmental Law EWI-THERM hot-air heating, types Prestige SE or Optimal-E 0 to VI. Heating output from 25 to 170 kw, suitable for rooms from 350 to 4,800 m³ (according to DIN). Your advantages over hot-water heating systems: 1. Immediately available heat 2. Short heating-up time as opposed to water 3. Air does neither boil nor freeze 4. No water damage caused by pipe fracture or other leaks 5. Considerable saving of space and free wall surfaces since no radiators are necessary 6. Favourable acquisition costs, no buffer storage required 7. Quick and reasonably priced assembly 8. Up to 94% absorption of dust thanks to state-of-the-art filter technology 9. No circulation of dust caused by radiators 10. Fast payback due to saving of energy and disposal costs or overcharged heating systems
Design The practical and benefi cial hot-air heating systems are easy to install even under diffi cult space conditions. The robust and durable design withstands maximum stress. In addition to the safe function and the hazardfree, simple operation of EWI-THERM hot-air heating systems, their overall weights are also an important quality feature of great signifi cance. Thanks to the modular design of EWI-THERM hot-air heating systems, their individual components can be assembled locally and easily replaced or adjusted to the specifi c requirements. All models are available for left and right installation. This means that the cleaning openings that must be freely accessible are either arranged on the left or on the right side (viewed from the shell). The components and their features: Combustion chamber The two-section combustion chamber with 6-12 cm thick fireproof special fireclay lining and cast-iron fire and/or soot door is designed for an operating temperature of up to 1,200 C. These high combustion temperatures permit the use of combustibles of Categories 6 and 7, ensuring compliance with the German Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchV). Shell Due to its large volume and the double-type lock prescribed by the Employers Liability Insurance Association, the shell ensures a secure, time-saving and convenient charging. The shell meets the requirements of the Employers Liability Insurance Association for charging systems according to ZH 1/472. Hot-air blower The double-side intake, powerful radial blower with external motor and V-belt drive guarantees a high hot-air capacity. Induced-draught fan with flue pipe connection The induced-draught fan guarantees a uniform combustion and is automatically regulated up or down, as required, through a frequency converter. The connecting piece of the flue pipe must be attached to the chimney at an angle of 45.
Heat exchanger with dedusting system A large-sized heating element made of 2 mm thick steel is surrounded by thick-walled cast plates as per DIN 1691 and permits the rapid transmission of combustion energy into hot air (efficiency 88 91%). The integrated flue gas dedusting system ensures compliance with the legally stipulated emission limits for fine dust in the flue gas. Automatic control system The heating system is equipped with a technically mature, fully automatic control system that controls all operating procedures harmoniously. Taking advantage of the technical progress and our longstanding experience in the design of heating systems, EWI-THERM hot-air systems are continuously improved. Each of our hot-air heaters can be adjusted to the specific operating conditions and the local situation by employing the advanced PLC technology (Programmable Logic Control). The temperature that makes you feel comfortable (room temperature) can be individually adjusted through the integrated display on the front side of the control cabinet. The flue gas temperature can be precisely adjusted and set according to the existing chimney type. The hot-air temperature can be increased according to the length and the routing of the hot-air line in such a way that the blown-out heat at the outlet is still sufficient. Overheating protection If combustibles such as chip briquettes or chipboard residues were used in previous heating systems, there was a risk of furnace overheating and consequential damage. In addition, this caused the expensive closing of the fire dampers. Thanks to the control system, these disadvantages can now be easily counteracted and reliably excluded in the future. Speed of the induced-draught fan at low-load conditions In order to achieve uniform low-emission combustion even under unfavourable draught conditions posed by the existing chimney, the speed of the induced-draught fan can be adapted accordingly and precisely adjusted. The actual conditions of the relevant points can be called up on the display and easily adjusted, if necessary. If combustible charging to the furnace stops, the furnace will automatically be stopped ensuring that all safety requirements are met. Another benefit of our hot-air heating systems becomes evident during the hot summer months. In this case, the hot-air blower can act as a fan to provide a pleasant cooling effect.

Prerequisites for the installation of an EWI-THERM hot-air heating system 1. Chimney with a cross section matching the heating system size. 2. Sufficient supply of combustion air. 3. Unobstructed return air path. 4. Complete wiring between control system and furnace by specialized electrical contractor. 5. For systems with a heating output of more than 50 kw, an enclosed heating room is required. Operation of the EWI-THERM hot-air heating is very easy: 1. Charging the combustion chamber with combustibles through the shell. 2. Switching on the automatic control system. 3. Ignition of the combustibles through the fire door. 4. If the flame becomes visible through the sight window at the side, the furnace can be fully charged. Combustion is controlled by opening the primary and secondary air supply at the lower furnace section in correspondence with the combustible material used. Maintenance is limited to the cleaning of the air filters, the flue gas dedusting system, the heat exchanger as well as the combustion chamber and ash drawer. Due to the high combustion efficiency, an extremely low quantity of ashes will remain in the furnace. The cleaning of the air filters depends on the dust content in the conveyed air. An inexpensive service contract will guarantee a long-term operation of the hot-air heating system. Optional EWI-THERM hot-water heating module The EWI-THERM hot-air heating system can be additionally and/or subsequently equipped with a hot-water heating module. This permits the generation of hot air for the workshop area and, in parallel, the generation of hot water for use in office, staff and other rooms. The hot-water heating module represents an air/ water heat exchanger. Hot air that flows through the lamella at approx. 60-70 C, heats the water which can then be used to support, for example, an existing hot-water heating system. The module can be designed up to one third of the overall heating output. In analogy to solar modules, the hot-water heating module can be integrated into and support existing oil and gas heating systems. As long as wooden waste is burnt and hot air is produced, hot water can be withdrawn. Your benefits: 1. No boiling water 2. No buffer storage required 3. Simple, and even subsequent, integration into existing heating systems 4. No additional operating costs 5. Inexpensive procurement 6. Fast installation
