OPERATING FEATURES
The fuel (pellets) is taken from the storage hopper (A) and
delivered to the combustion chamber (D) by a screw feeder (B)
driven by a gearmotor (C).
The pellets are ignited by hot air produced by a heating element
(E) which is drawn into the combustion chamber by a centrifu-
gal fan (M).
The combustion smoke produced is drawn out of the firebox by
the same centrifugal fan, and expelled from the nozzle at the
bottom rear of the stove (F).
Air is blown into the hollow space at the back of the firebox by
a fan (G), where it is heated before coming out into the room
from the front grille (I).
The amount of fuel and the smoke extraction/combustion air
supply are controlled by an electronic circuit board (N) in order
to achieve highly efficient fuel consumption.
The stove is pellet-fired with electronically controlled combu-
stion. Pellets are small cylinders of pressed wood.
The internal structure of the stove is completely made of cast
iron.
The pellet hopper is at the top of the stove.
The hopper is filled through a lid found at the back of the top
A serial port is found at the back of the stove (optional cable:
code 620550) to be connected to devices that allow remote
ignition (e.g. remote telephone, local thermostat).
The external covering is available in the following colours and
materials:
- ceramic: beige and amaranth;
- plating: sides in gray steel and inserts in red ceramic.
NOTES ON FUEL
The ROSE pellet stove is designed to burn wood pellets with 6 mm diameter.
Pellets are small 6 mm diameter (approx.) fuel cylinders made from sawdust and ground waste wood pressed at high
pressure without adhesives or other foreign material.
In order NOT to jeopardize stove operation, do NOT burn other substances. The use of other materials (including
wood), which can be detected by laboratory analyses, invalidates the guarantee.
Edilkamin has designed and tested the stoves for best performance with pellets with the following characteristics:
• diameter: 6 millimetres,
• maximum length: 40 mm,
• maximum moisture content: 8 %,
• heat output: 4300 kcal/kg (at least).
If pellets with different characteristics are used, the stove will need recalibrating (similar to the initial calibration
carried out by the dealer upon 1st ignition).
Use of unsuitable pellets may lead to: a decrease in efficiency; operating anomalies; stoppages due to clogging, dirty
glass, unburnt fuel, etc.
Pellets may be simply analysed just by looking at them.
Good: smooth, regular lengths, not very dusty.
Poor-quality: with horizontal and vertical splits, a lot of dust, highly variable lengths and mixed with foreign matter.
