MAFA system solutions

MAFA has a wealth of experience of how best to store and transport pellets. MAFA have taken some examples to show how easy it is to use a Villa-silo in existing surroundings. A transport auger is flexible and easy to operate. The choice of system solution which is best suited for you depends on the brand of burner.

System solution 1

MAFA Villa Indoor 5.7m3, Maflex transport auger direct to the burner.

A simple installation in the cellar of the house where the supply of pellets is kept in an adjacent room. The transport auger is connected directly to the burner which controls the flow. Air pressure is released through the ceiling filter. The filling pipe is located on an external wall of the house to enable the easy filling of pellets from bulk deliveries. An indicator light sensor shows the delivery driver when the storage container is full.

System solution 2

MAFA Villa Outdoor 5.7m3, Maflex transport auger to an ancillary hopper of the type, MAFA Mini.

MAFA Villa Outdoor is positioned outside the boiler room on a level base. The transport auger feeds the pellets to an ancillary hopper of the type, MAFA Mini. The ancillary hopper is automatically filled and can be seen as a backup in case pellets have not been ordered in time. Air pressure is released by way of a spring-loaded pressure hatch with hanging dust filters. The Villa-silo can be positioned up to 15 meters from the burner.

System solution 3

MAFA Villa Indoor 4.7m3 side-emptying, with Maflex transport auger direct to the burner.

In boiler rooms that are tight for space, a MAFA Villa can be positioned with the feed outlet located on the side to give a tighter angle to the burner.
