In General
Effecta Lambda is a woodred boiler with a suction fan. The boiler should be connected to one or
more accumulators, which are heated via a Laddomat valve. Warm water is taken from the top of the
boiler and is fed to the top of the tank. The return water is taken from the bottom of the tank and is fed
to the bottom of the boiler.
Domestic water
To get domestic water, the tank needs to be equiped with a coil.The tenperature of the water is regu-
lated with a mixing valve.The amount of warmwater is dependent upon the temperature and size of
the tank.
Combustion
On the front of the boiler is two airinlets with dampers, which are controlled by two motors. The mo-
tors gets signals from the lambdacontrol depending on the amount of oxygen in the uegases. The sys-
tem is designed to get as low output of harmful gases as possible. Normally you don´t need to change
the settings when you are burning different kinds of wood with different moisture content.
The system
Effecta Lambda should be connected to at least 1500l of accumulation volume. At installation, there
should always be a Laddomat valve connected.A woodred boiler that is connected to one or more
buffertanks will have a lot of advantages:
• The grate can always be fully loaded
• The user will have a long time between the warmups
• Prolonged lifespan
• The boiler is always used on maximum prestanda
• Efcency and envirinmental assets will be on top
You should always strive after a dimension of the accumulationsystem, so that you don´t need to make
more than one warmup a day.When you startup a new re,the fan will start to provide combustion air
and to prevent smoke from coming out of the reside. When the boiler has reached a temperature of
78degrees, the charging of the tank starts. The laddomat valve care for the statication in the tanks.
When the accumulators are heated, the pump and fan stops. The warm water in the tanks then heats
the radiators in the house, and the domestic water through a coil.

To the installer
It´s now time for the installation of the boiler. Try to follow the examples we are describing for a safe
installation. After the installation, be careful to educate the end user of the boiler how the system is used
and maintained, this is to avoid unnecessary stops an problems.
Location
The boiler shall be placed on a rm foundation, try also to place the boiler as horizontally as possible,
this to avoid airpockets in the boiler. Keep in mind the laws and regulations regarding distances to com-
bustible materials.
The boiler room
The boiler room shall be constructed according to current laws and regulation, if uncertain regarding this,
contact concerned authority. You need good ventilation in the boiler room to get the best performance of
the Woody Lambda.
The accumulator
It´s important that the accumulators are well isolated, this is to get as small heatlosses as possible. To get
a good comfort regarding the number of times you have to be in boiler room, you need at least 1500l of
accumulation volume.
The chimney
The chimney should have a diameter of at least 150mm,if you have a chimney with less diameter, Effecta
should be consulted before installation. The draft in the chimney should at low temperature be approx
15 pa. It´s important that the chimney is tested and approved by concerned authority before a new boiler
is installed. If the draft is to hefty a draft stabilator might be needed. If you have a tall chimney and a ue
gas temperature below 170degrees there is a risk of condensation, which in the long run can be harmful
to the chimney. Adequate temperature 1 metre from the vent of the chimney is 70-80degrees.
If the chimney is tall and wide it may result in to much draft which can lead to too much gasication and
too much re in the grate. This can be prevented by installing a draft stabiliser.

Laddomat 21
A Laddomat valve should always be mounted between boiler and
tank. It´s described further on page 10.
Automatic Shunt
It´s recomended to use an automatic shunt valve to control the ue
in the radiator circuit. It feels the temperature in a special place in
the house and regulates the temperature in the radiator circuit ue.
Using an automatic shunt will signicantly reduce the amount of
wood needed during a year, and your indoor climate comfort will
also improve.
Expansion Vessel
The expansion vessel normally is tested for 6bars. Highest working
temperature is 99degreees. The vessel has a preepressure of 2,5bar.
The volume should be approx. 10% of the total volume of the sys-
tem. An open vessel should have a volume of 5% of the total.
Safety Valve
The safety valve will release when pressure exseeds 1,5bars. When it
opens water will drip out of it and the pressure goes down. Remem-
ber that the system is designed for a maximum pressure of 1,5bars,
and shall under no circumstanes be under higher pressure.
Shuntvalve
The shunt valve is mounted on the radiator circuit, and it´s designed
to mix the accumulatorwater and the return water from the radiator
to get the right temperature indoor. If mounting an automatic shunt
valve, read it´s instructions.

Valve Combination
The valve combination is mounted on the domestic water circuit. It´s
purpose is to mix the hot water with cold before it reaches the water
taps. This is to avoid burns, and to keep the taps and seals from be-
ing destroyed by to hot water.
Piping
Normally copper is used for installing these systems. Piping between
boiler and accumulators should not be less 28mm. If the piping is
longer than 6 meters to the rst tank it´s recomended to use 35mm.
The Accumulator Tank
Effecta Lambda must always be connected to some sort of accumu-
lator tank, where the energy is stored, and where the domestic water
and the warm water to the radiators is taken. The accumulator is
described more thorough on page 13.
The Draft Stabiliser
If you have a tall and wide chimney, it´s possible that you have to
install a draft stabiliser. You might notice that you have an irregular
combustion, pufng sounds from the boiler. This happens when the
chimney sucks too much air through the boiler. The placement of the
draft stabiliser in the chimney should be approx. one meter above
the connection to the boiler. This is because you have an overpres-
sure from the fan, and if you place the draft stabiliser too close to the
boiler you might have smoke coming out of the stabiliser.
