5.2.1 General Potential hazards caused by the burner or the operation of the burner with consideration of the behaviour of the boiler shall be avoided by either constructional means or by the use of safety devices. Safety shall be maintained in the event of possible failures in the safety device itself. The manufacturer shall undertake a risk assessment covering all potential hazards of the burner and the measures how to avoid or control them including allocation of safety levels. The safety levels are defined as follows: 1. safety level A: Control functions which are not intended to be relied upon for the safety of the application. A functional safety assessment is not required; 2. safety level B: Control functions which are intended to prevent an unsafe state of the appliance. Failure of the control function will not lead directly to a hazardous situation. A single fault assessment of the control including software class B according to EN 60730-1 is required; 3. safety level C: Control functions which are intended to prevent special hazards such as explosion or whose failure could directly cause a hazard in the appliance. A second fault assessment of the control including software Class C according to EN 60730-2-5 is required. This risk assessment shall cover at least the following: a. elements given in 5.2.2 to 5.2.11; b. burner functions start-up, purge, ignition, flame supervision, flue gas flow, control of heat demand, pellet-air ratio control. In the risk assessment one of the above mentioned safety levels shall be allocated to any identified hazard. An example of risk analysis for back burning is given in Annex D and an example of the risk analysis with allocation of the appropriate safety levels for control functions using electronic devices is given in Annex E. The actuation of any safety system shall at least result in cutting off the fuel feed. 5.2.2 Safety against back burning Back burning in any state of operation differing from normal operation shall be prevented either by constructional means or by use of safety devices or any other means that gives an equal level of safety.



EN 15270:2007 (E) 13 The hazard of back burning is classified as a risk corresponding to safety level C in accordance with 5.2.1. The failure of the feed screw drive shall not result in any dangerous situation. The burner shall have at least two different safety systems to prevent back burning from the burner head. At least one of the safety systems shall operate regardless of the state of the power supply. If one of the safety systems of the burner is in the form of an emergency discharge of the fuel, this shall be discharged into the boiler. The discharge shall be limited to the amount of fuel in the feed screw. The content of the hopper shall not be discharged in this manner. In this case the burner shall have an emergency power supply (e.g. electrical battery back up or mechanical-thermo-mechanical device). At least one of the safety systems shall continue to provide protection in the event of interruption of the fuel feed (e.g. blockage of the feed screw). Any loss of power supply shall result in neither smoke leakage from the pellet burner nor back burning. In normal operation the temperature in the fuel supply shall not exceed 85 °C. Sensors for the safety systems shall be actuated before the temperature exceeds 95 °C. If the burner is equipped with a drop chute, the difference between the upper and lower fuel levels in the drop chute shall be at least 150 mm as measured from the highest point of the lower pellets level. This distance must be at least 250 mm if the maximum heat input of the burner exceeds 15 kW. 5.2.3 Safety against fuel overload of the boiler or interruption in fuel supply The operation of the burner with the feed screw set to operate continuously at maximum speed shall not result in any dangerous situation.
The test at overload mode according to 6.6.1.3 can be omitted if a safety device, safety level C according to 5.2.1 prevents an overload mode. The boiler shall be equipped with a safety device that stops the fuel supply in the event that there is either insufficient or no combustion in the burner head. The test for interruption of fuel supply according to 6.6.1.3 can be omitted if a safety device, safety level B or C according to 5.2.1 is used. In the ignition phase a safety device shall stop the fuel supply after a safety time which shall be declared by the manufacturer of the burner start up function, if there is no or insufficient combustion. At the end of the safety time there shall be no critical amount of fuel in the burner head, if the ignition of the fuel fails. A failure in the safety device to detect insufficient combustion shall not lead to a dangerous situation. 5.2.4 Voltage variation
In the case of variation in the electrical power supply between 85 % and 110 % of the nominal value, there shall be no deterioration, which prohibits the normal use of the burner. A decrease of the electrical power supply to below 85 % of the nominal value shall not lead to a dangerous situation. Automatic restart of the burner after a power failure is permitted only if by self checking of the burner control system first has verified that all the safety systems are in operation. Loss of power supply or decrease of power supply to the burner shall not cause back burning or smoke passing out through the pellet burner.



EN 15270:2007 (E) 14 5.2.5 Surface temperatures of accessible parts The surface temperature of accessible parts of the burner likely to come in contact with combustible material shall not exceed 85
C. The temperatures of the adjusting, control and safety devices shall not exceed the value stated by the manufacturer of the device and their operation shall remain satisfactory under the conditions specified in 6.6.1.5. The surface temperatures of knobs and levers, intended to be manipulated, shall not exceed the ambient temperature by more than: a) 35 K for metals; b) 45 K for porcelain or equivalent materials; c) 60 K for plastics or equivalent materials. 5.
