The Boiler
Effecta Complete is a boiler which is to be fueled with wood pellets. No other kind of fuel is
allowed to be used. Not logs or oil.
Disassembly and disposal
It will be many years before your Effecta boiler is worn out, but it is important that you follow
the regulations in force at the time concerning disassembly and disposal of your boiler.
The fuel
The boiler should normally burn 6/8 mm fuel pellets which come either in 16 kg sacks or
are supplied by bulk truck. If you have built a bulk storage container, you should follow the
current recommendations to ensure that the quality of the pellets does not deteriorate. Never
use pellets which do not meet European pellet standards, as this may result in problems in
operating the burner.

To the installer
It is time to install the Effecta Komplett pellet boiler. Please follow the examples we provide for
a safe installation. After installation, be sure to instruct the customer on how the heating system
and the boiler work, in order to avoid unnecessary complications in the future.
Set up
The boiler is positioned so that the surface
temperature of flammable building material does
not exceed 80°C. The boiler should be positioned
at least 15 cm (1) from the wall. The distance
from the smoke valve to a flammable wall with
ignition protective covering must be at least
30 cm (4). In order to clean the boiler, a
minimum clear space of 1 metre (2) is
required in front of the boiler and on
the side at the convection section and
at any inspection panel in the chimney.
A passage with a minimum width of 0.5
(3) m is required along one of the long
sides of the boiler. The pellet hopper
aint alowed to stand closer than 120 cm
from the boiler.
The boiler room
The boiler must be installed in a boiler room or
boiler house. The ceilings and walls must be fitted
with ignition protective covering and the floor must
be made of non-combustible material. Minimum ceiling
height at the boiler is 2 metres. The boiler room or boiler house must be equipped with a fresh air
intake with the minimum dimensions 150 x 150 (5.) mm or with a sufficiently large free sectional
area to avoid low pressure in the boiler room. It must be impossible to close the air intake.
Chimney
The chimney should have a diameter of at least 120 mm. If your chimney is smaller, Effecta
should be consulted before installation. The draught in the chimney should be about 15 pa at
low temperatures. It is important that the chimney is tested and approved by a certified chimney
sweep before a new boiler is installed. If the chimney has a strong draught, a draught controller
(see page 32) may need to be installed for good boiler operation. If you have a tall chimney and
an outgoing flue gas temperature below 170°C, there is a risk of condensation in the chimney,
which can damage the chimney in the long term. A suitable temperature is 70-80°C one metre
down into the chimney. Ask your local chimney sweep for help to measure the temperature. If the
chimney is tall and has a large area, a draught that is too strong may mean high levels of flue gas
and overignition in the firebox. If this is the case, a draft stabiliser must be installed.

The shunt valve
The shunt valve controls the heat supply from the boiler to the radiator circuit. Effecta Complete
is fitted with motorised shunt control. The room temperature can be adjusted on a scale on the
thermostat. An automatic system will significantly reduce fuel consumption and provide a more
comfortable environment.
The valve combination
The mixing valve is used to ensure that the temperature of the hot water in your shower and
elsewhere in the house is comfortable. Set the system to the temperature you want by turning
the thermostat between +/-.
The burner
The burner is mounted on the left or right side. The burner heats the water in the boiler which
provides heat to the domestic and hot water.
The turbulators
In the tubes in the convective part hangs the turbulators. The turbulator`s function is to reduce
the heat in the flue gases on behalf of the temperature in the boiler. They must always be fitted
in the boiler. If the flue gas temperature should be to low, the turbulators can be cut off. Always
contact the installer before doing this.
The sealings
The seals on the hatches must be checked every year. If the hatches do not seal properly, the
efficiency and the combustion process of the boiler will deteriorate.

The flexi pipe between burner and auger
The flexi pipe prevents any fire coming in to the hopper. It is made from a heat sensitive material
which melts if it gets to hot. If replaced, a new must be ordered from Effecta.
The overheating protection on the feeding tube
It stops the feeding if the fan temperatures gets to high. Reset is made manually.The cover must
always be in place when connected to main power.
Flame sensor
The flame sensor monitors the fire in the burner. If light is missing for a set time during fire the
burner stops and goes into cooling phase.
Overheating protection on the boiler
There is an overheating protection on the boiler which cuts the power to both the boiler and the
burner if the temperature in the boiler exceeds 95°C.
Compressed air cleaning system
In this cleaning system there are three different safety devices.
1. The motherboard controls the time the compressor can run.
2. There is a pressure switch that stops the compressor at a preset pressure.
3. A safety valve wich releases air if pressure exceeds 9bars.
Power outage
After a power outage the control system remembers where in the sequence the burner was. If it
was in the ”Run” mode, the fan blows for four minutes to burn out any pellet rests. Then it goes
into normal mode.

Wood pellet is made by sawdust, a byproduct from from handling woods. Wood contains lignin
that makes the pellet hard without any glue or other binder used.
On the market there are several different kinds of pellet. The quality and energy can be different
between them. The diameter is 6 or 8mm, the normal length is between 5 and 30mm. Pellet with
high quality has a density of 600-750 kg/m3. The moist content is 5-9% in weight.
Oil has an energy content of 9,9kW/kg and wood logs about 4,0kW/kg. Wood pellet has 4,75,0kW/kg in energy content. To maintain a good combustion the pellet should be stored in a
dry place and be protected from dirt. Pellet is delivered in sacks with 16kg content or in bulk by
truck.
Effecta Complete can handle most of the different types of wood pellet that is 6-8mm. The quality
should meet european standards. Good pellet with small amount of dust and an even quality
helps to reach good combustion, less maintenance of the product and also less environmentally
harmful emissions.
The worse quality of the fuel, the more cleaning and maintenance of the product.
▀
The fuel
The amount of pellet fed into the burner should be controlled every time the pellet brand or quality is changed. If the deviation is more than 0,5kg/hour compared to the numbers in the ”Warranty and Installation”
paper, the burner should be tuned.
Inspection
We recommend that the local chimney sweeper inspect and give advices and guidances regarding any necessary steps needed to be taken regarding the chimney and the boilers connection
to it. Some issues needed to be considered:
Dimensions
Suitable dimensions are from about ca Ø120 to Ø160 mm for a steel construction and about
140x140 mm for a bricked. The length of the chimney should be so that a draft of 15-20 Pa is
reached during operation.
A much larger/smaller flue might be needed to be adjusted to receive a proper draft. If a new
installation of the flue is done, the chimney manufacturer can give advice regarding the dimensioning. Generally speaking, a flue used for burning oil works for firing pellet in the same power
range. The draft stabiliser attached to the flue tube should always be used if nothing else is stated
from Effecta.
The flue gas temperature should be checked.
The temperature in the flue directly after the boiler in the flue should be about 160 - 200ºC.
With a tall and big chimney there is a risk of condensation which can lead to corrosion and/or
frost damages. To control this you can check the temperature 1 meter down from the top of the
chimney. The temperature should be at least 80ºC in the end of a burning session. Suggestions
for actions to be taken if needed is e.g. insulate the chimney or mount a steel pipe inside the
chimney. This will increase the temperature in the flues without effecting the efficeny of the boiler.
Other actions are increasing the power output of the burner or removing/cutting off turbulators.
This will however decrease the burners efficency some. The draft stabiliser helps keeping the
chimney free from condensation by ventilating it.
