P68 Pellet Stove
The P68 Pellet Stove is capable of manual operation. This also allows the
operator to manually control operation during an emergency (i.e. igniter failure, when
using a 502H battery backup, or when using certain generators.)
The unit can be switched between "AUTO" and "MANUAL" at any time during
operation.
Igniter Switch to "MANUAL"
Room Temperature Mode
The fire will have to be lit with starting gel and a
match, or started automatically, see "Automatic Op-
eration" on Page 15. Turn to "Manual" position when
the fire is established.
The difference between "AUTO" Room Tempera-
ture Mode and "Manual" Room Temperature Mode is
that the fire will not go out as the room temperature
goes above the control board setting. The unit can only
go to low burn and will remain there until it runs out of
fuel or until more heat is needed and the feed rate in-
creases. Feed rate adjustments and dial settings are
the same as "AUTO" settings.
The blower will shut off
completely if the temperature on the ESP is too low.
Igniter Switch to "MANUAL"
Stove Temperature Mode
The advantage of this mode is to allow the opera-
tor to have a large viewing fire without blowing extra
heat into the room.
During operation, with the temperature dial set at
#5 or less, the distribution fan will not operate. A #5 on
the temperature dial and a #5 on the feed adjuster is
approximately 80% output. It is not necessary to oper-
ate the distribution blower below this point. This con-
trol setting allows a higher burn rate (a larger viewing
fire) without an excess of hot air blowing into the room.
An example of when to use the Manual Stove Tem-
perature Mode is if you want to watch a large fire and
the room is already up to temperature. The Stove Tem-
perature Mode allows you to have a larger fire and a
lower sound level, without the distribution blower.
NOTE: During the use of this mode, if you
keep increasing the temperature dial setting to in-
crease the fire size, the distribution blower will
automatically come on when the ESP Temperature
reaches 350
o
F, or 81% output.
NOTE: When starting the unit in the "AUTO"
mode and switching to "MANUAL", the fire must
be large enough to start the distribution blower.
The starting of the blower is a signal that the start
cycle is completed and the fire will not go out.
P68 MANUAL IGNITION/OPERATION
This setting will produce a large viewing fire without
a distribution blower operating.
Manual Stove Temperature Mode
Room Temperature Mode: This
setting, see below, will produce a
room temperature of 70 degrees
with the distribution blower at
medium speed.
