The octoplus was specially developed for the
economic exploitation of sun energy and
for covering the remaining energy
requirements using wood pellets.
The SINGLE tank concept serves as
a power plant. The highly modern,
user-friendly touch-screen control
coordinates all control functions
(solar system, pellet burner,
heating control, control of the
domestic water supply, etc.).

In 3 hours,

supplies enough
energy to supply
the annual energy
requirement of
the entire population
of the earth.
System technoloy - dual concept
The octoplus combines solar and pellet technology in a "power plant". The plant is formed by the 550 litre buffer tank (1) with a generous solar register (2). The directly flange connected pellets burner unit balances the
temperature difference as required. Optimum use of solar energy is thus achieved.
G Free energy from the sun
G One power plant
G No losses due to re-stratification of thermal layers
G Minimises the burner starts - increases system efficiency
Perfect solutions - even in the tightest space!
The octoplus "TWO in ONE" 550 litre buffer tank and the directly connected pellets burner unit saves space
and considerable piping costs.
G Less space requirement
G Minimum piping costs
G Additional charging pump and valves are not necessary
G Maximum system efficiency

Intermediate container for pellets with
suction turbine (1)
G The octoplus has a 49 litre capacity intermediate
container. The suction turbine enables filling of the
intermediate container within specified times in a closed circuit (suctionpressure system).
G The boiler room and pellet storage room do not
have to be directly adjacent to each other.
Maintenance free, closed circuit. The suction turbine
is directly mounted on the intermediate container for
pellets.
Screw feeder with single axis rotary
valve (2)
G TECHNOLOGY G BENEFIT
G The pellets are transported from the intermediate
container by the feed screw into the single axis rotary
valve. The single axis rotary valve hermetically sealsoff the combustion chamber from the intermediate
G When using downfiring combustion technology
(wood gasification technology) the released wood
gas is sucked through the grating plate and completely burned in the combustion chamber with a
flame tip temperature of approx. 1,200°C without
leaving any residues.

Induced draft fan (6)
G The combustion air is sucked in, in a regulated
manner by the speed regulated ID fan.

steel fan vanes, low noise, maintenancefree with
speed monitoring.

ecomanager-touch thinks along with you by measuring and controlling.
Changing outside temperatures are considered in just the same way
as you own personal living habits. Then the burner is only
started if the heat energy required from the solar
system cannot be completely supplied. Any
uneconomical burner start is avoided.
ecomanager-touch provides individual adjustment options.

Simple hydraulics
Connection diagram octoplus with solar system and fresh water module
The octoplus buffer tank and pellet
boiler form one unit with the octoplus.
Thus additional costs are saved as
early as at installation due to reduced
material and piping costs. The connection to an external fresh water module
ensures hygienic hot water generation
using a constant flow principle with
constant removal temperature.
Connection diagram octoplus without solar system but with fresh water module
Even without a solar system octoplus
is a perfect power plant. The connection to an external fresh water module
ensures hygienic hot water generation
using a constant flow principle with
constant removal temperature. The
fresh water module enables hot water
preparation in the "tightest" space.
The octoplus can be upgraded at any
time with a solar system.
Important: To aid clarity no safety equipment or appliances are included
in the drawing on the heating or water sides.

The octoplus is just as suited to
hot water generation using a
domestic hot water tank.
This system is used if a domestic
hot water tank / waste water heat
pump is available or desired.

If the solar fraction is to be
increased with octoplus
then the use of an additional
storage tank is recommended.

Einfachste Handhabung
Changeover now to pellets + solar!
Exploding heating costs are enough to put any household budget under pressure. With the infinite energy of sun
+ pellets, you can really bring your heating costs down. The inexpensive and environmentally friendly pellets and
briquettes are from natural, untreated wood chips from wood working and processing, i.e. local industry.
security of supply
regional wealth creation
>> pellets <<
local fuel
heating value:
1 kg pellets equal approx. 4,9 kWh
2 kg pellets = 1l of heating oil
storage volume:
1 m3 equals approx. 650 kg
How the pellets get from the storage room to the octoplus
A special suction turbine gently transports the pellets via tubes into the pellet temporary container.
Consequently partitions between the pellet storage room and octoplus are easily overcome. Filling times can
be freely adjusted to match your living habits.
G Wood gasification technology: The speed-regulated induced draft fan sucks the wood gas in a controlled
manner through the grating plate using the down-draught combustion technology. At the flame tips, temperatures up to 1,200°C (gas flame) are generated. This guarantees optimum fuel material utilization. Controlled
flame guidance - not a camp fire.
G The ash is automatically transported downwards with the flame. Complex mechanical cleaning mechanisms are not required. Residue free fuel exploitation - no charred fuel pellets in the ash.
