Safety devices
The back-burning is the biggest danger risk at burners working procedure. Back-burning appears when
usual pressure or draught conditions have changed in boiler’s combustion chamber. There are several
reasons for such changes.
In order to secure operational and fire safety the burner PV500a is equipped with following safety
devices:

Back up batteries. Enable to safely empty the pellets inside the burners internal tube into the
burning chamber in case of unexpected power outage.
Melting hose. The external auger is connected to the burner with a special hose (Ø 76mm), which is
made from easily melding polyurethane material that interrupts when back-burning takes place.
Such measurement avoids entrance of the flame from the burner into external auger and pellets
Powder extinguishing system. Enables to extinguish the fire inside the burner internal tube by filling
it with extinguishing powder when the burner has overheated or burned back due to some fault.

2.2
Pellets
Wooden pellets or saw dust granules are concentrated and homogenized wooden fuel made from
sawdust and cutter shavings. Pellets are pressed with high temperature. No extra materials are added,
pellets are held together by a natural ingredient found in wood – lignin. Pellets are neutral, renewable
fuel. Its burning doesn’t spoil CO2 balance in the atmosphere. Not only premium but also the industrial
pellets can be used in PV500a. Pellets must be stored in a dry and ventilated room. Some key data for
industrial and premium wooden pellets are given in Table 3.

Installation
Prerequisites
In order to install the burner, the boiler must meet the following requirements:
 It is recommended to use three pass boilers.
 The construction of the boiler must make it possible to open the door of the boiler with the
burner connected and removing ash from the furnace. If the door of the boiler is too narrow for
opening it together with the burner, then extra hinges must be mounted.
 The boiler must be positioned in a way that there is enough space for cleaning the burner, the
boiler, the smoke pipe and removing the ash.
 The burning chamber must not touch the bottom of the boilers furnace (min 10cm distance
needed).
 To ensure negative pressure in the furnace, a flue gas fan should be installed.
 Boiler room must provide constant air supply of 500 m³ per hour (ca. 400 cm2 air inlet opening).
 The boiler room where the burner is installed must fulfil all rules and recommendations given by
local authorities.
In order to install the burner to the boiler door, there must be mounting holes as shown below.
Note: If the burner is installed to the boiler, the door or the installation flange´s thickness should be 814mm.

Boiler firebox depth L (Figure 4)
must be at least 3,5 times longer
than the burner’s burning chamber.
The minimal length of the firebox L
has to be 2200 mm. The height of
firebox must leave at least 100 mm
(H1) for ash below burning
chamber.
Figure 4 Firebox depth
Minimum dimensions:
L1 ≥700mm
H ≥700mm
Pellet burners need regular cleaning and therefore boiler construction must allow easy opening of
boiler’s door without removing the burner. The minimum size of opening in boiler’s door depends on the
position of door hinges. Figure 5 below illustrates the situation. Point C is critical point. In order to keep
door width minimum and boiler’s door opening small, a double hinge solution can be used. As double
hinges add another degree of moving-freedom, door must be fastened on both sides. Slide-out doors
with guide rails is also an option.

Place the grates back to the
burning chamber starting from the
lower ones and working upwards.
Keep in mind to put the small and
larger grate in steps between each
level, so that the common side of
the grates won’t align between
levels. Last level of grates have to
be mounted on it’s holder, slided
into position and fixed from
behind with M10 butterfly nuts
(Figure 10).
Finally install the bricks by starting
with the back wall bricks, next
install the side bricks and finish
the assembly with the arc bricks.

Powder extinguishing system
All PV500a burners are equiped with powder extinguishing system. System is autonomous and only
requires removing the safety latch. NB! Before activating the system please read the user manual.
Activating the system before reading the manual is forbiden and could result in an
accidental opening of the extinguisher !!!
3.4
External auger
The external auger transports pellets from the pellet container to the burner. The auger is controlled by
burner. The auger is connected to the burner with a special hose (∅ 76mm), which is made from easily
melting polyurethane material that melts when back-burning takes place. The hose acts as a safety
measure against back-burning. PV500a pellet burner´s fuel consumption at full power is about 97 - 107
kg of pellets per hour (1,65 kg per minute ). External auger´s productivity must be at least 200kg of
pellets per hour. The auger can be fixed to the storage or a ceiling depending on the conditions at the
installation site.
Requirements for auger installation:
• The raising angle of the external auger must not exceed 45°.
• The end of the exit tube of the auger and the input of the burner must not be aligned. The
recommended minimal horizontal distance is 20cm.
• The distance between the input of the burner and the exit tube of the external auger must be at
least 60cm vertically – recommended distance is 80-200cm.
• Hose between auger and burner must be strait and stressed and not be bended through,
otherwise pellets may block the auger and interrupt burner’s normal work. Falling angle must me
between 65° and 85°.
All critical requirements to installation of external auger are depicted in Figure 11.

Pellet storage
Pellets must be stored in a dry and ventilated room that is separated from the boiler room. A tailor made
silo for particular storage is recommended. All safety regulation must be taken into consideration
according to the local laws. It is recommended to wear a respirator when handling pellets. Refilling must
be carried out before the storage runs empty.
3.6
Electrical connections
Following connections must be done by the electrical installer:
 1-phase supply and boiler’s thermostat to socket X11.
 3-phase supply to socket X12
 External auger to socket X14
Burner gets its main supply from 230V single phase supply (socket X11), but also needs 400V 3-phase to
socket X12 to run inverters and augers. Boiler should be equipped with thermostat or external switch
what has to be connected to pins T1 and T2 in 7- pole plug X11 for turning on/off the pellet burner. Auger
motors contactors are equipped with motor thermal protection, which prevent motor from overheating.
As soon as the nominal current of the sensor set-point is exceeded, the relay detects this variation and
the output relay cuts off the power to the motor. Burner can be equipped with optional lambda sensor. It
provides efficient control for optimal performance concentrating emissions and burning efficiency.

External inverters
Flue gas fan can be controlled by external inverter. Following configuration must be made:
•
•
Inverter must use 0-10V speed signal.
“Forward” command must use sink logic (0V signal starts fan).
Before connecting the external inverter pleas look into the connection diagram.
3.8
Internet module
Every PV500a burner has an internet module in standard equipment. It is located next to the burner
controller under the red cover. The module itself is connected to the MOD1 connector, located on the
controller. For the internet module to work, it has to be connected to the internet with a CAT5 cable. To
observe and control the burner, you have to login in to the page: „cloud.pelltech.eu”. Login data can be
found on the module. To get more info about the internet module, please read the instruction manual or
contact your local reseller.

Error output
PV500a burner has built in error output what gives 230 VAC tension (NO) to 7-pole socket’s S3 connector
or interrupts it (NC) if burner delivers any error message (E16 FLAME, E48 BATTERY,E24 IGNITION etc).
Device (motor, modem etc) up to 5A@230VAC can be connected to this output. PAR50 defines wether
error output is closed or open during error appearance.

Flue gas fan
The burner needs stable under-pressure in burning chamber for its correct operation. Simplest way to
assure this is to use the flue gas fan between boiler and chimney. With flue gas fan the burner can control
and hold constant under-pressure. In order to control flue gas the PAR60 value has to be set to”2”
Inverter. Selected flue gas fan must provide transmission of the maximum flue gas amount and exceed
the pressure provided by boiler, ash cyclone and chimney. The flue gas capacity for burned pellets can be
calculated by simplified formula.
V – Capacity range in m³/h
P – Burner max power in kW
Tfg – Flue gas absolute temperature in K
Troom - Room absolute temperature in K
λ (lambda) – Excess air ratio
PV burners are designed to work at lambda values 1.2...1.5 - for calculations choose value of 1.5.
Flue gas fan must be installed between boiler and chimney. If ash cyclone is used then flue gas fan must
be installed between ash cyclone and chimney to avoid overpressure in cyclone and smoke leakage.
PV500a pellet burner
p 19/36
Burner setup
Depending on burner’s configuration (weather inverter included or not) the electrical connections may
be different. In case the frequency inverter has already been installed in factory to the burner, the flue
gas fan can be directly connected to the burner through connector X21. Fan must be connected to burner
with 3-wire cable (3x1. 5mm²). Internal inverter output is 3 x 240V. Flue gas fan motor has to be
connected as delta.
In case the burner is ordered without Flue gas inverter, the external inverter for flue gas fan can be used.
Inverter must be selected according to fan motor’s parameters and available power supply. The inverter
must be switched to sink logic (negative common).
To connect the external inverter with burner there is connector X20 with 3 output signals:
•
•
•
T1 - burner DC common (ground), must be connected with external inverter input common.
S3 – inverters “run” command, must be connected with F (forward) pin on inverter input. Burner
will connect this pin to ground when fan must run.
B4 – 0… 10V output for fan speed, must be connected with inverter analog input.
Inverter setup
Inverter parameters are set up at factory for automatic control. To test flue gas fan manually:
1. Press Easy button on inverter
2. Press dial button and change settings :

For lambda sensor EP0006, the PAR66 value has to be set to “1”. Some third party oxygen amount
sensors use 4…20mA output for 0…20% oxygen. In this case, value “2” must be selected.
If PAR66 is set to “0” (no sensor), secondary fan is driven by air table set in PAR31 – PAR36. Secondary fan
also switches back to air table if oxygen level reading is below 1.5% or over 19%. Oxygen sensor should
be placed into smoke tubing after the boiler. Placement has to be chosen so that the turbulance of the
gases is minimal in that place. That means that it isn’t recommended to place the sensor after tight turns
or other measuring equipment.
Oxygen level can be seen in INFO-menu next to pressure reading. The value on the screen must be
divided by 10 to get the real value. For example “O2=113” means oxygen level value 11.3%.
4.4
Ash removal system
The burner is capable to control boilers ash removal auger and scrapes. To do that burner has a 3phase or
a 1 phase output connectors where you can connect the ash removal system motors. Connector X29 has
one motor 3 phase output and X25 is able to control two 1 phase motors.

External boiler temperature sensor (TMP1 or X23)
External temperature sensor enables the burner to maintain constant boiler’s water temperature. For
that external temperature sensor has to be installed to relevant place on boiler and external sensor to be
connected to connector TMP1 or X23. In parameters menu PAR53 value has to be chosen “1”.
When temperature holding status is activated, then burner will change its power according to water
temperature and speed of temperature changing. Burner starts to change its power when BURNING
status has lasted longer than set in PAR15. Power is changed according to next parameters: PAR 17
defines the time between power raises, PAR 18 defines the time between power lowering.
Following actions must be done to enable temperature hold mode (THM):
1. Mount external temperature sensor to boiler according to boiler manufacturer instructions.
2. Connect the sensor to TMP1 or X23 connector..
3. Choose PAR53 value (sensor type) according to sensor type. Type table can be found in software
manual.
4. Set requested temperature – PAR54. It should be lower than boiler thermostat temperature.
Otherwise the boiler thermostat would force the burner to turn off before reaching PAR54 value.
5. Optionally PAR55 - the hysteresis of requested temperature can be changed. THM activates if
PAR53 value is larger than “0” and BURNING status has lasted longer than set in PAR15 (typically
30min). The burner will change its output power according to current measured temperature and
the rate of temperature change.
Temperature sensor could be PT100, sensor with mA output or a sensor provided by the burner
manufacturer. Different sensors need different hardware that can be selected with JP1 and JP2.
Configuration for sensors is as followed:

3. Choose PAR53 value (sensor type) according to sensor type. Type table can be found in software
manual.
4. Set requested pressure – PAR54. It should be lower than boiler pressure switch level, otherwise
the boiler pressure switch would force the burner to turn off before reaching PAR54 value.
5. Optionally PAR55 - the hysteresis of requested pressure can be changed. PHM activates if PAR53
value is larger than “10” and BURNING status has lasted longer than set in PAR15 (typically
30min). The burner will change its output power according to current measured pressure and the
rate of pressure change.

Starting and stopping
To turn on the burner, turn on the boiler main switch. If burner displays STOPPED, then go to main menu
and change parameter BURNER from OFF to ON. The display shows WAITING. Now turn boiler
thermostat to desired temperature. The burner will go to TESTING, then CLEANING and then to
LOADING-state. If this is the first run, external auger needs to fill up with pellets. It may take as long as
20minutes.
To stop the burner, set BURNER from ON to OFF in main menu. Now the burner will burn all pellets in
burning chamber and turn safely to standby.
STATUS menu displays the changes:
BURNING → END BURN → END BLOW → STOPPED
The stopping procedure may take up to 30 minutes.
Attention! If necessary, the burners working command can be switched from ON to OFF with the switch
on the burner cover.
Caution! Do not turn off mains power to terminate burning process. Use the boilers thermostat for that.
In order to complete burning procedure safely let the burner to burn all fuel in burning chamber. Never
leave burner unattended when you had to stop boilers work by switching off main power.
5.3
Fuel refilling
Fuel container has to be refilled before its runs out. The fuel can be added any time to container. If
container runs out before refilling, refill it and restart the burner. The start-up takes now longer about 20
minutes, because external auger has to be filled with pellets like on initial start-up. Turn burner from
BURNER menu ON. Vice versa the “E04 PELLETS” error is displayed, because loading time is exceeded.
5.4
Status and parameters
PV500a pellet burner operates in many different states, which are called “Status”. Log screen STATUS
menu displays last and actual events (burner statuses) and their duration. Burner changes its statuses
based on received input signals from sensors and values set by user. The statuses in typical working order
of cycles are given in Table 8. The duration of all actions are in form mm:ss (’m’ in the middle) or hh:mm
(’h’ in the middle) or dd:hh (‘d’ in the middle). For example: ’IGNITING 01m25“means the burner ignition
state lasted 1 minute and 25 second.
Lower row of the log shows burner’s current state. To reach the lower row, press the “down”(↓) button,
until you reach the lower row with current state. The duration of current state updates every second or
every minute. Changed data blinks.

Table 11 LOADING parameters and timing
In LOADING state the auger holds permanent fuel level in burner pellet inlet. Depengin on the level
sensors signal, the auger is switched on and off. Feeder’s work also depends on level sensors. Maximum
loading time is limited to 20 minutes after first start or error, because long auger systems need some time
to fill up. In next loadings, maximum time is limited to 5 minutes. If maximum loading time is exceeded
and silo selection function is used, the burner will switch loading over to the second auger. In single silo
system, error E04 PELLETS is displayed.
At IGNITING cycle the igniter is heated up and fan blows hot air on pellets in burning chamber. Hot air
ignites pellets. Igniter is working periodically at ignition time in order to avoid its overheating.
Igniter is pre-heated already in the end of loading cycle, 20 seconds before the loading feed end. If the
igniter has been turned on for more than 1 minute at loading time, the it will be turned off.

BURNING is main action status in burner’s every day’s operation.
Burner can operate on 11 different fixed power levels. There are 6 main power levels, which can be
selected and adjusted. 5 virtual power levels (between main power levels) are for smoother operation –
they can't be adjusted or selected.
For every power level, the primary fan speed is fixed in PAR1...PAR6 and secondary fan speed in
PAR31...PAR36. The fan speed for virtual levels is calculated as average from previous and next main level
speed

In SLOW DOWN mode, the burner power is reduced step-by-step to 1 level after boiler thermostat is
switched OFF. This mode can be used only in systems with high and stable power demand. Using SLOW
DOWN mode in systems with low thermal inertia or unstable power demand, there will be risk of system
overheating. The SLOW DOWN mode is recommended to use together with HOLD FLAME. “SLOW

mode, minimum fuel and air amount are delivered to burning chamber. HOLD FLAME mode can be
switched on from burner main menu. When HOLD FLAME is set to AUTO, burner will turn the mode ON
or OFF depending on WAITING time:
 If WAITING (time between END BLOW and boiler thermostat switched on) is shorter than set in PAR

Regular maintenance
The burning chamber of pellet burner PV500a is equipped with automatic self-cleaning and ash removing
systems. When system works regularly, there is no need to clean the burning chamber separately. Still the
corners and edges of the burning chamber should be monitored for ash and other deposits. If needed
cleaning must be done. Only the boiler needs regular cleaning and maintenance. Despite burner has selfcleaning ash removing system, nevertheless the ash collects under and on grates. That’s why at least
twice a heating period the grates need cleaning. The frequency of maintenance depends on quality of
pellets and intensity of heating.
To clean the burning chamber:
1. Turn the burner off by switching from main menu BURNER to OFF.
2. Let the burner cool down for at least one hour.
3. Open boilers door, to enter to burning chamber.
4. Remove upper arc fire bricks.
5. Remove grates and clean them totally up. Make sure that all holes in grate were clean.
6. Place back grates. Make sure the grate to be placed correctly to holders.
7. To end the cleaning, shut the boiler’s door and turn thermostat ot requiered temeperature and
turn burner ON.
Despite burner has self-cleaning system the boiler has to be cleaned from collected ash and nonburning residues. Manufacturer of pellet burners don’t prescribe time period between cleaning.
The ash and non-burning residues are perfect heat insulators. If burning chamber is surrounded with
ash and non-burning residues so its normal ventilation is distracted. It causes fast overheating, outburning and deformation of the burning chamber.
ATTENTION! BOILER HAS TO BE CLEANED FROM ASH AND NON-BURNING RESIDUES BEFORE THEY GET
IN TOUCH WITH BURNERS BURNING CHAMBER.
ATTENTION! DEFORMATION AND OUT-BURNING OF BURNING CHAMBER CAUSED BY CLEANING MADE
NOT IN TIME IS NOT MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND WILL NOT BE COVERED BY WARRANTY.
