PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

PELLKAMIN is an insert that uses pellets as fuel. Combustion
is electronically managed.
The combustion chamber is made with steel perimeter structure
covered, at the back, with a cast-iron panel and closed, at the
front, with a ceramic glass door (use the thermal glove pro-
vided when opening).
The fuel (pellets) is taken from the storage tank (A). A cochlea
(B) is enabled by a gear motor (C), which takes the fuel to the
combustion chamber (D).
The pellets are ignited by hot air produced by an electrical resi-
stance (E) and suctioned into the combustion chamber by
means of a centrifugal fan.
The smoke produced by combustion is extracted from the
hearth by means of this centrifugal fan and expelled from the
mouth located in the upper area of the insert (F).
Through the lower grille (G), the fans draw air from the room
that, routed through the cavity on the back of the combustion
chamber, is heated before returning to the room through the
upper grille (H).
Provide two aeration grilles (area larger than 100 cm
one under the insert and the second positioned at least 50 cm
above the insert or anyway communicating with the internal
compartment where the insert is positioned, as indicated on
page 48.
The fuel tank (A) is situated to the rear of the insert.
The hopper can be fi lled in the following ways:
– through extraction of the insert, see page 42.
(TO BE CARRIED OUT ONLY WITH THE INSERT
TURNED OFF).
– using the pellet loading kit (optional), complete with loading
mouth to apply to the mantel, see page 43.
(THE INSTALLATION OF THE KIT ALLOWS PEL-
LETS TO BE LOADED IN THE HOPPER FROM THE
FRONT WITHOUT HAVING TO TURN OFF THE IN-
SERT).
– using the pellet front loading drawer kit (optional see page
46).
(INSTALLATION OF THE KIT MAKES IT POSSIBLE
TO LOAD THE PELLETS INTO THE HOPPER FROM
THE FRONT AND FROM THE SIDE WITHOUT HAV-
ING TO SHUT DOWN THE INSERT).
Fuel quantity, smoke extraction and combustion air supply
are all controlled by an electronic control board, which is
equipped with Leonardo software to achieve high combustion
effi ciency and low emissions.
All phases of operation can be managed via radio remote
control.
In case of breakage or loss of the radio remote control, switch-
ing on and off and setting the operating power can be done
through a 1,2-metre cable, complete with simplifi ed on-button
to be placed near the insert by the installer (see page 53).

• Each time the insert is removed, a security system cuts off the
power supply. Should the insert be removed involuntarily du-
ring ignition, operation or while switching off (including while
blocked), the "Power failure" block phase will be launched
when the insert is reinserted. Wait for the block phase to end
before reactivating the insert.
