1.1 Principles of log combustion for generating heat

Units of measurement for wood fuel

The units of measurement commonly used in forestry and the timber

industry for wood fuel are solid measures of timber (smt) and stacked

cubic metres (stcm). The solid measure of timber (smt) describes

1 m3 of solid timber mass in the form of assorted round timbers.

The stacked cubic metre (stcm) is a measure for stacked or tipped

wood, measuring a total volume of 1 m3, including air gaps. On aver-

age, one solid measure of timber equals 1.4 stacked cubic metres.

Calorific and emission values

Timber is a renewable fuel. During combustion, on average approx.

4.0 kWh/kg units of energy are released.

The table shows the net calorific value of various types of timber with

a water content of 20 %.

1 litre of fuel oil can be replaced by 3 kg of timber, assuming typical

efficiency. A stacked cubic metre (stcm) of beech corresponds to the

energy of approx. 200 litres of fuel oil or 200 m3 of natural gas. There-

fore burning wood contributes to the preservation of the finite reserves

of oil and gas.

Timber has a generally neutral CO2 balance, as the CO2 created during

combustion is immediately reabsorbed into the photosynthesis cycle

and therefore contributes to the formation of new biomass. Another

environmental aspect is the fact that timber contains hardly any sul-

phur, therefore almost no sulphur dioxide is created during combus-

tion.

Influence of moisture on the net calorific value

The water content of timber substantially influences its net calorific

value. The more water timber contains, the lower its net calorific value,

since the water evaporates during combustion and consumes energy

in the process.

Two measures are used to specify the water content:

■ Water content

The water content of timber is its water mass as a percentage of the

total timber mass.

■ Timber moisture level

The timber moisture level (hereafter referred to as moisture or mois-

ture level) is the water mass as a percentage of the total timber mass

excluding water.

The graph shows the relationship between the water content and the

moisture level, as well as the dependency of the net calorific value.

Calorific value kWh/kg

Freshly cut timber has a moisture level of 100 %. During storage over

one summer, this moisture level reduces to approx. 40 %. During stor-

age over several years, this moisture level reduces to approx. 25 %.

Principles of wood combustion for generating heat

The graph shows the dependency of the net calorific value on the water

content, using spruce as an example. With a water content of 20 %

(moisture level 25 %), the net calorific value is 4.0 kWh/kg.

The net calorific value of timber stored over several years is approx.

twice that of freshly cut timber.

Storage

Not only is the combustion of moist wood uneconomical, it also leads

to low combustion temperatures and high emissions plus tar deposits

inside the chimney.

Information on storing firewood

■ Split round logs from a diameter of 10 cm upwards. Enlarging the

surface area enables the wood gases to be expelled more quickly

and simply. The drying process is also accelerated during storage.

■ Stack the logs in a ventilated and preferably sunny spot underneath

a rain canopy.

■ Stack the logs with generous air gaps to enable the flowing air to

carry off the dissipating moisture.

■ A hollow should be created underneath the wood pile (e.g. in the

form of support timbers) to allow moist air to escape downwards.

■ Never store freshly cut wood in a cellar, as air and sunshine are

required for drying. However, dried wood can be stored in a well

ventilated cellar.

1.2 Minimum wood fuel requirements

Wood remnants, coarse woodchips and compressed shavings can be

used in the Pyromat Eco. The Pyromat Eco is ideal for the combustion

of logs. The wood should have an edge length between 45 and 50 cm

or up to 100 cm (depending on the boiler type: boilers for 50 cm logs

or 100 cm logs). The rated wood boiler output will only be achieved

with dry wood with maximum 20 % water content (air-dried wood).

Wood of poorer quality and higher moisture content also reduces the

rated output and the length of combustion.

When using softwood (e.g. spruce), note that the energy per volume

unit is lower than with hardwood (e.g. beech). Softwood is therefore

suitable for "initial heat-up" - however, its use shortens the intervals

between recharging considerably and increases the volume to be used

(up to 44 %). Observe the requirements specified in the next chapter

relating to non-combustible substances and their limits for warranty

period claims. Deviations are only possible through written, system-

specific manufacturer declarations.

Substances

When procuring wood for combustion in a Pyromat Eco, foreign matter

(e.g. stones, metal parts, brick, plastics, etc.) should be avoided. This

changes the composition of the fuel and therefore the critical param-

eters of the combustion process.

The values (per kg of dry fuel) of the non-combustible substances (ash

at an analysis temperature of 815 °C) must not fall below or exceed

the following limits:

Limit Comparison with natural wood from forests

Chlorine Cl mg/kg max. 300 10

Sulphur S mg/kg max. 1000 120

Total Cl, S mg/kg max. 1000 130

Ash content total g/kg max. 15.0 5.0

Alkali oxides in the ash (K2O and Na2O) g/kg max. 1.0 0.35

SB start of ash sintering °C min. 1000 approx. 1200

A consequence of the above limits being exceeded is a shortened

service life of the combustion chamber and the wood boiler. The main-

tenance work is also increased and the maintenance intervals are

shortened.

The proportion of dust-like and fine-grained materials should also be

minimised (acc. to ÖNORM M 7133).

Origin, treatment and storage

Depending on the origin, wood can be natural wood (e.g. forest wood

and waste from sawmills), residual wood from wood processing plants

or waste wood (building rubble, furniture). The wood must be obtained

and, if required, cut to the desired size and treated with regard to for-

eign matter. In addition to the requirement to adhere to ÖNorm M 7133,

a max. proportion of 5 % outliers in the fuel should be observed.

The length of the outliers must not exceed 16 cm (with a cross-section

of max. 5 cm²). The surface of the fuels should be roughened where

possible (e.g. through shredder, etc.). When using briquettes, ensure

compression is matched to charging. The maximum diameter is 60

mm.

Size of the woodchips

The Pyromat Eco is also suitable for the combustion of coarse woodchips. To prevent increased maintenance work, appropriate coarse wood-

chips in accordance with ÖNorm M 7133 should be used.

Further information

Ash and cleaning

Natural wood without bark has a percentage of ash less than 0.5 % of

the supplied fuel mass. All information regarding cleaning work is

based on natural wood with attached bark and an ash percentage of

0.8 %. The cleaning and maintenance work for other wood fuels should

be matched according to the quantity, the specific weight and the ash

characteristics.

Changing fuels

Frequent and intensive changes in fuel quality, e.g. bulk density, water

content, dust proportion and ash content, can require a manual adjust-

ment of the combustion system parameters.

Non-wood fuels made from biomass

Non-wood fuels made from biomass such as needles, leaves, cereals,

straw, husks, fruit stones, etc. are generally unsuitable as fuel for fault-

free operation, and are therefore not permissible.

The fuel properties (elementary composition, ash sintering point, etc.)

deviate from wood, in some cases considerably. Combustion in a

Pyromat Eco can lead to an impairment of the combustion character-

istics and increased stress on the fireclay lining and the heat

exchanger surfaces. Warranty claims can therefore only be asserted

when using permissible fuels.

The Pyromat Eco was developed specifically for the combustion of

logs and represents state of the art combustion technology.

The Pyromat Eco log boiler has already proven itself thousands of

times. Charging from the top offers easy handling, control via the

Lambda probe guarantees low emissions, and the integral heat man-

agement ensures maximum convenience.

Clean and efficient combustion

The microprocessor-controlled Ecotronic captures all details relevant

for the operation and regulates the amount of heat and its demand. As

a result, the boiler system is monitored permanently in all operating

phases, from heat-up, operation under load and recharging, right

through to burnout, and is held – via its motorised air dampers – within

its optimum operating range. Through this, clean and efficient com-

bustion is guaranteed.

Large hopper for combustion lasting several days

The Pyromat Eco offers the greatest operating convenience when

heating with logs due to its large charging chute. Log boilers in the

output range 40 to 95 kW can operate with logs of 0.5 m in length; in

the range 85 to 170 kW, the hopper width increases to 1080 mm,

ensuring convenient charging even with logs of 1 m length.

With oil burner connection

The Pyromat Eco is approved as oil boiler compliant with EN standard;

the necessary connections have already been prepared. Fitting an oil

burner may, for example, help to bridge holiday times when manual

charging with logs is not feasible.

The Pyromat Eco is particularly suitable for the combustion of logs,

wood briquettes and wood remnants, either loose or in pieces.

The Pyromat Eco boiler system has been tested in accordance with

the latest quality criteria to EN 303-5 "Boilers for solid fuels", and can

be brought into circulation with CE designation (RL 98/38/EC etc.) and

VKF approval.

3.1 Specification for Ecotronic

Structure and function

Modular structure

The Ecotronic system control unit is a decentralised microprocessor

system (CAN BUS). To control the boiler system, the Ecotronic com-

prises a module (PCB) integrated into the boiler, and the programming

module. Three-sensor cylinder management is part of the standard

Ecotronic version.

Controller modules can be added to the Ecotronic (modular structure).

It is therefore possible to extend operation individually according to

customer requirements.

Programming module

The programming module is included in the standard delivery for the

boiler and is used to operate the heating system. Preferably install on

a wall and connect to boiler via a data cable.

The backlit screen offers an extensive text display.

Functions

■ Output and cylinder control is carried out by constantly regulating air

dampers with heat-up and burnout optimisation

Rated load: during cylinder heating

Partial load: at the end of the phase of cylinder heating

■ Lambda probe enables efficient combustion control and maximum

efficiency

■ Keeping up the return temperature with the boiler control valve

■ Release of the complete heating output during the start phase of the

boiler to the consumers (no output transfer into cylinder via return)

■ Accurate temperature stratification of the cylinder with the cylinder

control valve

■ Safe recharging with wood through the closing of the primary air

damper during recharging

■ Use of the residual boiler heat after burnout

■ Supporting auxiliary and service functions

■ Control of an additional oil burner

■ Protection against overheating through heat transfer to the buffer

cylinder, shutting down the flue gas fan and closing the air dampers.

3.2 Accessories for Ecotronic

Modules and data cables

The standard Ecotronic version can be customised with additional

controller modules or controllers and data cables. Additional heat

sources, heat consumers or DHW cylinders can be incorporated into

the control system with/without solar heating circuit backup.

The additional heat source is switched on automatically when required.

This may occur after heat is drawn from the buffer cylinder to cover the

entire heat demand (single operation). Otherwise the additional heat

source is used to cover peak heat demand (parallel operation to the

biomass boiler). For parallel operation, a return temperature raising

facility is required for heat transfer, which also ensures that the return

temperature is kept up. On request, the additional heat source can

heat the buffer cylinder (sensor optional).

Controller, solar/DHW and central heating

Part no. 7387 786

Use for a larger solar thermal system for heating the DHW in the solar

DHW cylinder and for heat supply to the heating cylinder as a three-

circuit control unit.

The first circuit is used to heat the DHW, the second heats the heating

cylinder back/bottom and the third heats the heating cylinder front/top.

The heating cylinder is heated with an external plate heat exchanger.

Changing over from the DHW cylinder to the heating cylinder starts the

secondary pump. This then operates with the solar circuit pump. For

optimum functioning, the flow rate in the secondary circuit must be

matched to the primary circuit (e.g. with flow meter in the primary and

secondary circuits).

Differential temperature, collector/DHW 2-20 °C.

The following differential temperatures are freely adjustable:

differential temperature, collector/cylinder back/bottom 2-20 °C.

Note
