Pellet burners from EcoTec are designed
in line with the main principles we are
accustomed to for oil-fired heating. The
benefit of these main principles is con-
venient handling, where the location of
the fuel store is not being restricted by
the design of the boiler room. In terms
of safety, separation of the burner and
fuel store, in combination with a non-
continuous fuel feed between them
provides increased protection against the
spread of fire in the event of backburn-
ing.
Damage resulting from incorrect hand-
ling, or poor function or installation will
be limited to the burner’s internal fuel
store.
In short, the internal store is only refilled
with a limited quantity of fuel via the
external feeder system at each filling.
Fuel is fed through a tight-fitting outfeed
that is synchronised with the external
feed process.
A thermal contact, located just outside
the boiler on the fuel feed pipe, detects
any heat spreading back into the fuel
feed pipe towards the internal store.
Should this occur, fuel already present in
the fuel feed pipe will be fed into the
boiler immediately, and refilling of the
internal store will cease.
The burner’s control unit is linked to the
boiler’s maximum thermostat.
In the event of an error on the opera-
tional thermostat, the maximum thermo-
stat will step in and prevent the boiler
from overheating.
The burner is also designed to revert to
normal operating mode following opera-
tional disruptions such as a power cut,
fuel interruptions, etc. If this process
fails, this is indicated in the display and
the burner switches off.
