Added comfort with automated cleaning systems During the past years, heat production with wood energy has increased considerably. More and more domestic homes heat with wood pellets while industries mainly use woodchips. Wood pellets are a favourable alternative to oil or gas. Another factor is the CO2 emissions. Wood is a CO2 neutral combustible material as it only releases the CO2, which the tree has absorbed from the air previously. Not only the ecological aspects are important to the end-user when buying a pellet heater. Ease of use and maintenance of the pellet heating system must be exactly as simply as they are for oil and gas systems. With linear actuators from LINAK ® , you can optimise the ease of use with an automated cleaning process. The actuators dislocate the combustion grate and with this movement, it brushes across a cleaning device. The ash falls down into an ashpan, which is easy to empty without interrupting the operation. This reduced time required for the cleaning process considerably. By means of a position feedback in the actuator, the position of the ash brush can be transferred to the control system of the pellet heater. The actuators of the TECHLINE ® product range offer following advantages: • Position feedback • Precise movement • Reliability • Protection class IP66 for high resis-tance towards dusty environments and high pressure cleaning • Space-saving installation • Problem-free and simple operation “LINAK actuators optimise use by automating the cleaning process. The position of the ash brush is controlled by position feedback from the actuator.” 3
