Varieties of Zota boilers
The range of Zota boilers can be divided into several types. Each of them has its own characteristics and characteristics.
Electric
Electric boiler Zota is used for industrial and domestic purposes. At the moment, the company produces 5 models, whose power is in the range from 3 to 400 kW.
- Zota Econom - an economical model, can be used for heating a house or a cottage, power - from 3 to 48 kW.
- Zota Lux - are connected to an autonomous heating system and can supply heat to a house or production room, it is able to heat water. Power - from 3 to 100 kW.
- Zota Zoom - organizes a heating system, automatically selects power to maintain a certain mode, power - from 6 to 48 kW.
- Zota MK - are mini boiler rooms for heating and water supply systems of any room, power - from 3 to 36 kW.
- Zota Prom - models are able to heat a room with an area of up to 4000 square meters, power - from 60 to 400 kW.
The boilers are powered by electricity, mounted on the wall. Often used electric boilers Zota from 9 kW.
Solid fuel
The company launched the production of all types of solid fuel boilers, ranging from low-power models for heating country houses, ending with automated boilers to provide heat and hot water to large country houses.
Model Series:
- Zota Carbon - made of stainless steel, able to heat a small room.
- Zota Master - the case of these models is sheathed with basalt wool.
- Zota Topol-M - boilers with a gas-tight insulated body, works both on coal and wood, in the upper part there is a thermometer that measures the temperature of the liquid.
- Zota Mix - is able to provide the optimal working area of the heat transfer process, the efficiency is increased.
- Zota Dymok-M - models have the same characteristics as the previous one.
Solid fuel boilers can be used anywhere, a large amount of fuel is needed.
Automatic coal
Models of this type of boilers have one line of Stakhanov.The power of these devices is in the range from 15 to 100 kW. All models are equipped with large water chambers, controlled by the Windows system. Designed for heating purposes.
Each of the models can run on reserve fuel, firewood. However, the main fuel of the boilers is fractional coal.
Semi-automatic
This group is also represented by only one series - Magna. They are distinguished by a built-in combustion chamber for continuous burning. It is made of refractory material and stainless steel. The case is tight and is characterized by increased strength.
These models work on coal and wood. The control system and control of the heating process are fully automated. Power - from 15 to 100 kW.
Pellet
This group is represented by a model line called Pellet. Devices operate on granules made from peat, wood, agricultural waste. The advantage of these boilers is that they function without human intervention. This electric boiler is usually used for home heating.
Pellet models are equipped with an automatic ignition mechanism, a system to maintain a certain temperature, protection against overheating and functions that make work safe. Power ranges from 15 to 100 kW.
Principle of operation
The fuel in the Zota furnace is supplied in small portions if it is small.
The amount of fuel required is determined automatically by the boiler, taking into account the required amount of fuel for heating the house. The principle of operation is that the fuel from the hopper is sent to the burner in the amount that is needed to create a particular temperature in the room. The exact temperature is calculated by the integrated controller.
Another option is gravity feed. Fuel spills onto the burner due to weight. This happens after burning the previous portion and making room for a new one.
Using the fan, air is supplied to the burner, the controller also calculates the required amount and adjusts the rotation speed independently.
The heat resulting from the combustion is transferred to the heat exchanger, then to the water and distributed through the pipes of the house, warming it. Further, heat in the form of gases is removed through the chimney.
What to look for when choosing
Devices for heating need to be selected taking into account the following characteristics:
- Type of fuel;
- maximum power;
- Efficiency
- area of the heated room;
- the presence of automation mechanisms;
- weight;
- depth of the combustion chamber.
The main characteristic of any Zota boiler is power. The area of the room, which he can heat, depends on it. The manufacturer produces equipment from 3 to 400 kW.
Application of Zota boilers
Heating boilers can be used in the following areas:
- in steam engine engines;
- in a factory for heating;
- in agriculture for heating and hot water;
- for heating residential buildings;
- for water supply of premises;
- in food and industrial production;
- in poultry farms and livestock farms;
- in public places.
Fuel boilers can be used in any places where water supply and space heating are needed.
Popular models
The following models are most common. They have gained popularity due to their technical characteristics and properties.
Zota Smoke
Electric boilers Zota Smoke series are solid fuel direct combustion devices. The air supply can be adjusted manually using the damper. The boilers are non-volatile.
The combustion chamber is made of steel, and it is also equipped with a cast-iron hob.
The company offers two modifications - KOTV and AOTV. The difference is that the AOTV series has a hob. The power of KOTV boilers is offered in two versions - 14 and 20 kW. The power of the AOTV series is divided into 3 levels - 12, 18, 25 kW.
The boiler system makes it possible to configure many parameters, which will ensure autonomous and safe heating operation.
Zota Lux
Electric boilers Zota Lux series are designed for autonomous heating of industrial premises and residential buildings. The area of the heated building is from 30 to 1000 m2.
The user can adjust the temperature from +30 to +90 degrees, which allows the use of devices in the “warm floor” system without auxiliary regulatory equipment. The boiler will automatically maintain the set temperature.
The tunic has small dimensions and weight. The manufacturer has made it possible to easily connect to external circuits, such as sensors or pumps.
Thanks to the modular design, the maintainability of Zota Lux heating appliances has been increased. The device can independently diagnose malfunctions and display information on a digital indicator. In an emergency, the boiler will sound an alarm.
