Pellet boiler<\/strong> is a type of heating boiler<\/a>, using wood pellets as fuel. The main function of a pellet boiler is to burn pellets to produce thermal energy, which is used for space heating and water heating, under the control of a microcontroller. Pellet boilers are usually sold as single-circuit boilers; heating of the high- and low-temperature circuit, as well as hot water, is carried out in a separate heating circuit using hydraulic piping (manifolds or hydraulic arrows, pumping groups, primary and secondary heating boilers).<\/p>\n

Structurally, the pellet boiler includes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Fuel bunker<\/strong> \u2014 storage for pellets (internal or external), providing automatic fuel supply to the burner using a pneumatic auger.<\/li>\n
  2. Screw mechanism<\/strong> - a device that supplies pellets from the hopper to the burner.<\/li>\n
  3. Burner (flare or gravity)<\/strong>\u00a0- an element where pellets are burned with minimal emissions and maximum efficiency.<\/li>\n
  4. Heat exchanger<\/strong> - a component that transfers heat from pellet combustion to the coolant.<\/li>\n
  5. Automatic control system<\/strong> \u2014 regulates the process of ignition and combustion, controlling the supply of fuel and air.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
