How the cleaning system works pellet boiler

Considering that pellet granules have different ash content, it makes sense to pay attention to such a module as a pellet boiler cleaning system. It is carried out in a chemical way, mechanized with the help of a compressor; the module is often built into the functional complex of the boiler. Each method has its own advantages. For the attention of buyers, pellet burners FOCUS have a built-in system that catches ash and discharges it into a special storage device.

Pellet boiler cleaning system: design and features

Pellet boilers with automatic fuel supply do not require human intervention in the operation process. They are equipped with a special system that regulates the supply of pellets. The controller is responsible for this function, during the entire period of operation, which controls the operation of the boiler. In addition to the systems mentioned, there is a pellet boiler cleaning system, which works in conjunction with a special lambda sensor that monitors the quality of the fuel.

The built-in cleaning system of the pellet boiler implies the presence of an ash catcher. There is also an automatic ash discharge module into a separate box. This is how manufacturers implement a design with an integrated cleaning system. However, ash cleaning is often provided with an external compressor, which effectively removes flue gases from the walls of the boiler and modules.

For economy class models, special granules can be used, which, when burned, remove and dissolve ash deposits on structural elements.

In the figure, we have shown the construction pellet boiler with burnerimplemented as a separate module. This principle of connecting a pellet device is used to convert boilers of any type to heating with pellet pellets.

The advantage of pellet technology

A modern pellet boiler allows you to organize heating of a house, building, structure. The technology is applicable to any industrial or agricultural premises. Heat without gas obtained with a level of comfort that is not inferior to gas heating.

Advantages of pellet boilers:

  • fully automatic operation is possible, which does not require cleaning, ash removal and other works accompanying the heating process;
  • climate control sensors are used;
  • remote control;
  • the models are relatively independent of the quality of the fuel if a flare burner is installed (*).

A torch burner is a built-in or external device integrated into the boiler, which provides the so-called volumetric combustion of fuel. It occurs when ignition occurs at once in the entire volume of the pellet mass.

It should be noted that the cleaning system of the pellet boiler is often replaced by homeowners with special pellet granules that provide chemical cleaning. This option can be optimal when choosing a granular fuel with an ash content of 0.5-0.7% from the fuel volume. High-quality wood pellets are characterized by such ash content.
