4. FIRE SAFETY
When installing the product, the following safety measures must be observed:
a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components flammable
and sensitive to heat (furniture, wood sheathings, fabrics. etc.) and from materials with flammable structure (see
A). All the minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) In front of the furnace door, in the radiation area there must be no flammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance of less
than 100 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed in front of the
whole component to protect.
c) If the product is installed on a non totally refractory floor, one must foresee a fireproof background. The floors made of inflammable
material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be replaced by a layer of no-inflammable material, for instance ceramic, stone,
glass or steel etc. (size according to regional law). The base must extend at least 50 cm at the front and at least 30 cm at the sides, in
addition to the opening of the loading door (see
d) No flammable components (e.g. wall units) must be present above the product.
The Product must always operate exclusively with the ash drawer inserted. The solid combustion residues (ash) must be collected in a
sealed, fire resistant container. The Product must never be on in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example glue for
linoleum, petrol etc.). Never deposit flammable materials near the Product.
During combustion, thermal energy is released which leads to considerable heating of the surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass parts,
the flue gas pipe and possibly the front part of the appliance. Avoid contact with these elements unless using suitable protective
clothing or accessories (heat resistant gloves, control devices).
Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.
4.1.
IN A EMERGENCY
If there is a fire in the flue connection :
a) Close the loading door and the ash drawer door
b) Close the comburent air registers
c) Use carbon dioxide ( CO
d) Request the immediate intervention of the Fire Brigade
DO NOT PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH WATER.
When the flue stops burning, have it checked by a specialist to identify any cracks or permeable points.
5. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Definition: thermo-product according to EN 13240.
La Nordica thermoheating products are suitable for heating homes using a centralised heating system made up from radiators or heat
convectors entirely or partially replacing the traditional gas or diesel oil boiler. The appliance works as an intermittent operating
appliance.
The appliance is composed of painted and galvanised sheet steel and cast iron. The fireplace is found inside the boiler, is built in 4 mm
thick steel and is reinforced using welded nails. A swivelling, removable grid is found inside the fireplace. The water in the heating system
circulates in the boiler, which absorbs the heat produced in the fireplace.
Below the hearth grate there is an extractable ash drawer
Below the fireplace door there is an extractable wood drawer
The ceramic glass window (resistant up to 700°C) of the door provides a lovely view of the burning flames and prevents sparks and smoke
from getting out. Room heating takes place:
a) by radiation: the heat is radiated into the environment through the panoramic window and the hot external surfaces of the thermo-
product;
b) by conduction: radiators or heat convectors of the centralised system fed by hot water produced by the boiler (See chapter
CALCULATION OF THE THERMAL POWER).
The device is equipped with registers of primary and secondary air.
1A - PRIMARY Air Register / AUTOMATIC Thermostat
The thermostat has the task of automatically increasing or decreasing combustion.
Dependent on the position chosen, the thermostat will act on the valve which regulates the intake of air into the furnace, placed on the
back of the cooker. Turn it in a clockwise direction from 0 to 5 to make up the fire and in an anti-clockwise direction to reduce combustion.
As this is an extremely precise device, it is advisable to turn it carefully and never force the knob.
1B - PRIMARY Air Register
This primary air register must be completely closed during wood combustion, as otherwise the wood burns too quickly and the product
may overheat.
2A - SECONDARY Air Register
This register must be open (i.e. turned completely to the right), in particular for the combustion of wood (see paragraph NORMAL
OPERATION). The secondary air, passing between the double glass of the fire door, heats up and triggers the dual combustion, keeping
the glass clean at the same time (register open).
To ignite the flame follow the instructions below (see Cap. IGNITION) :
•
Open the butterfly valve placed on the flue gas exhaust pipe must also be opened.
