EdilKamin NEA Instalación Uso Y Mantenimiento página 26

Commissioning must be done by a Technical Service Centre
authorised by Edilkamin (CAT) prior to ignition and testing
according to the UNI 10683 standard.
This standard indicates the control operations to be carried out,
aimed at ascertaining correct system function.
The CAT will also provide for calibrating the stove on the
basis of the type of pellets and the installation conditions, thus
allowing for the effectiveness of the guarantee.
If the fi rst ignition is not carried out by a C.A.T. authorised by
Edilkamin, the guarantee shall not be effective.
For information, consult the website www.edilkamin.com
There may be a slight smell of paint the fi rst few times it is
ignited, however, this will disappear quickly.
Before igniting you must check:
• that installation is correct
• the power supply
• that the door closes properly to a perfect seal
• that the combustion chamber is clean
• that the display is on standby (the date, power or temperature
fl ashes).
FILLING THE PELLET HOPPER
To gain access to the reservoir, open the two doors at the rear
part of the top (A and B - fi g. 1).
N.B.
1) During this operation, the bag of pellets MUST NEVER
be placed on the upper grill, otherwise the plastic bag,
coming into contact with the heat, could ruin the paintwork
on the top.
2) Use the special glove provided if you load the stove while
it is functioning and therefore hot.
3) You are recommended to load the pellets into the reser-
voir within 40 second of opening the reservoir.
NOTE regarding the fuel.
NEA is designed and programmed to burn wood pellets with 6
mm diameter.
Pellets are a type of fuel in the form of little cylinders, made
from compacted sawdust, compressed under high pressure
with no adhesives or foreign materials.
They are sold in bags of 15 kg.
For the stove to function properly, you MUST NOT burn
anything else in it. Using other materials (including wood)
will render the warranty null and void. Such use is detected by
laboratory analyses. Edilkamin has designed, tested and pro-
grammed their stoves to guarantee the best performance when
pellets with the following characteristics are used:
diameter: 6 millimetres
maximum length: 40 mm
maximum moisture content: 8%
calorifi c value: at least 4100 kcal/kg.

• PELLET HOPPER MICRO-SWITCH
A micro-switch (C - fi g.1) placed on the external door B of the
pellet hopper will shut down the stove in case the doors A and B
are not totally closed
If pellets with different characteristics are used, the stoves
must be recalibrated using a similar procedure to that carried
out by the DEALER when the stove is ignited the fi rst time.
Using unsuitable pellets may: decrease effi ciency; cause
malfunctions; stop the stove from functioning due to clogging,
dirt on the glass, unburnt fuel, etc.
A simple, visual analysis of the pellets may be carried out:
Good quality: smooth, uniform length, not very dusty.
Poor quality: with longitudinal and transverse cracks, very
dusty, various lengths and mixed with foreign matter.
