Air Intake - EdilKamin PELLBOX SCF Installations-, Betriebs- Und Wartungsanleitung

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION (DEALER)
Refer to the local regulations in the country of use for anything not expressly shown. In Italy, refer to UNI standard
10683/2005, along with any regional or local health authority regulations. If the insert is to be installed in a block of
flats, consult the block administration before installing.
COMPATIBILITY CHECK WITH OTHER DEVICES
The insert must NOT be installed in the same room as extractor fans or type B gas equipment.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CHECK
(THE PLUG MUST BE IN AN ACCESSIBLE PLACE)
The insert is supplied with a power cable that is to be connected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fitted with a
magnetothermic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10% can damage the insert (unless already installed, an appro-
priate differential switch must be fitted). The electrical system must comply with the law; particularly verify the effi-
ciency of the earthing system. The power line must have a suitable cross-section for the insert's power. An inadequa-
te earthing system can cause anomalies for which Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
The insert must be level for correct operation.
Check the load-bearing capacity of the floor.
The insert must be installed in compliance with the following safety conditions:
- minimum safety distance at the sides and back from medium-level flammable materials: 40 cm
- easily flammable materials must not be located less than 80 cm from the front of the insert
If it is impossible to comply with the distances given above, technical/building measures must be taken to avoid all
fire risks.
If the smoke outlet pipe is connected to walls made of wood or other flammable materials, it must be insulated with
ceramic fibre or other materials with similar characteristics.

AIR INTAKE

An outside air intake with cross section of at least 80 cm2 must be provided behind the insert to ensure sufficient air for
combustion.
Alternatively the air intake must be located in the room where the insert is installed and two suitable intake grilles must
be provided in the structure built around the insert.
It is advisable to ventilate the inside of the building work around the hood with air input from below, which leaves
through the grilles fitted at the top by convection, thus allowing heat recovery and preventing excessive overheating.
SMOKE OUTLET
The insert must have its own smoke outlet (it must not discharge into flues shared with other devices).
The smoke leaves the insert through the 8 cm diameter pipe on the cover.
The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by means of suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certified. The pipe must be
hermetically sealed. The material used to seal and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resistant to high tempera-
tures (high temperature silicone or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long. Up to two bends with maximum curvature of 90° may
be included.
If the smoke outlet does not end in a flue, a vertical section with wind guard at the end is essential (refer to UNI stan-
dard 10683/2005). The vertical duct section may be indoor or outdoor. If the smoke duct* is outdoor, it must be sui-
tably insulated.
If the smoke duct* ends in a flue, the flue must be authorized for solid fuel. If it is more than 150 mm in diameter,
it must be renewed by inserting an internal pipe and sealing the smoke outlet from the brickwork.
All sections of the smoke duct* must be inspectable. If it is fixed, cleaning inspection openings must be provided.
Possible installation layouts are shown in figure 2 (A, B, C and D) on p. 23.
