Wohnen und Wärme live
A retrofit kit for already installed furnaces ensures that the emission limits are safely complied with even after the replacement deadline has been reached.
Mr. Meier and Mr. Hoferecht got to know each other at the ISH 2019 trade fair in Frankfurt. Mr. Meier from the company Wohnen und Wärme Live visited the Blue Fire booth in hall 9.2 in Frankfurt. A possible retrofit set for the KAGO ovens on the market.
With his company Wohnen und Wärme Live Mr. Meier supplies KAGO customers with spare parts of all kinds.
The Garanta 600 series fireplace insert was the first project to be determined. Several times sketches and technical drawings of a holding system with integrated bypass were exchanged until the final design was finally determined.
The system has undergone a type test and will be available to customers in autumn 2019.
Thanks to the type-tested retrofit set with Blue Fire catalysts, the limit values for CO and dust can be safely undercut and the familiar firing system can be used for many more years without having to be replaced.
This saves costs and resources and the environment is not only protected by the reduction of emissions.
We are already very excited about further projects together with Wohnen und Wärme Live and wish great success with the retrofit set for the Garanta 600 series.
BRUNNER
A comprehensive test phase over 4 years confirms the partnership of BRUNNER and Blue Fire and has strengthened the mutual trust in the long term.
When people come together to share visions, this leads to a successful and sustainable project result, as described here. Since 2016 the companies Ulrich BRUNNER GmbH and Blue Fire GmbH have been working together. Four years ago, BRUNNER decided to equip the firing system installed in the customer exhibition with Blue Fire catalysts. On the basis of the nominal heat output, Blue Fire engineers calculated that 5 standard catalysts with the dimensions of 155 mm x 120 mm x 18 mm each should be installed in the firing must be integrated.
The development engineers at BRUNNER have implemented the jointly defined framework conditions excellently and integrated the Blue Fire catalysts into the combustion chamber of the furnace. Thus, this stylish fireplace supplies the entire exhibition area with heat. Since 2016, it has been doing so with even lower emissions thanks to the Blue Fire catalysts. The close and trusting cooperation of both companies and the excellent quality and long-term stability of the Blue Fire catalysts have now led to Ulrich BRUNNER GmbH equipping the first unit of the Panorama series with Blue Fire catalysts in series. We are looking forward to further exciting projects together with Ulrich BRUNNER GmbH and wish them good success with the attractive Panorama series.
ORANIER
The Blue Fire catalysts were extensively tested on the in-house test stand of Oranier Heiztechnik GmbH. This has resulted in a solid partnership between Oranier and Blue Fire.
The two companies Oranier Heiztechnik GmbH and Blue Fire GmbH have been working together for several years. In this mutual cooperation the first tests with Blue Fire catalysts were started at Oranier. The engineers from both companies have agreed on the function of the firing system and the way of integration of the Blue Fire catalysts intensively exchanged.
The tests were positive so that some furnaces of Oranier Heiztechnik GmbH will now be equipped with Blue Fire catalysts.
In particular, very good reductions in CO emissions could be achieved for furnaces with large glass contents.
We are looking forward to further exciting projects together with the company Oranier Heiztechnik GmbH and wish maximum success with the jointly implemented projects.
LEDA
The first series application of Blue Fire catalysts in a wood-burning stove is the result of several years of cooperation and the close proximity of the company LEDA.
Far-reaching decisions require thorough preparation in order to develop safe and successful products. According to this motto, we are very proud of our cooperation with the company LEDA Werk GmbH & Co. KG and have been working together intensively since autumn 2015.
In order to understand the products and the technologies of the company LEDA, several meetings took place on site. The spatial proximity in the north makes this possible without any problems and quickly.
For the first serial application of the Blue Fire catalysts the LEDA CORNA tec was chosen by our customer. The Blue Fire engineers supported the development department of LEDA in the integration of the Blue Fire catalysts into the combustion chamber of the CORNA tec.
The result is a very modern stove, which is especially suitable for well-insulated single family houses. With a nominal output of only 3 kW, it was developed especially for this application. In order to be able to develop a combustion with a low nominal heat output, with an attractive fire picture and very low emissions, LEDA relied on the catalysts of Blue Fire. The good results could be confirmed on their in-house test stand.
We would especially like to thank LEDA for the support with a cutaway model of the CORNA tec, which we were able to present at our booth during the world's leading trade fair ISH in Frankfurt, in spring 2019 with our Blue Fire catalysts.
The ISH 2019 was our first trade fair appearance, which was very successful for Blue Fire.
In the meantime CORNA tec has got a round sister model called PEPPA tec.
In this model, too, Blue Fire catalysts have been integrated directly into the combustion chamber.
The development continues and we are looking forward to new projects, which we are planning together with the company LEDA Werk GmbH & Co. KG.
DROOFF
The first wood-burning stove to be awarded the Blue Angel eco-label in Germany is manufactured by the Drooff company from Brilon. Naturally, the Aprica 2 stove is equipped with Blue Fire catalysts in order to safely fall below the demanding Blue Angel emission limits.
The companies Blue Fire and Drooff have been working together since 2015. The Blue Fire catalysts have been tested in different Drooff stoves during this time. These extensive tests made it possible to determine the optimum conditions of use and the best possible placement for the Blue Fire catalysts in the respective combustion chamber. Blue Fire's engineers assisted in the dimensioning of the catalysts and the design of the bypass system. When integrating Blue Fire catalysts in the upper part of the combustion chamber, special care must be taken to design the bypass so that it is not positioned in the direct exhaust gas flow. Such an error would considerably reduce the efficiency of the Blue Fire catalysts and exhaust gas would flow past the catalyst without reacting.
Based on Drooff's experience from the extensive tests with the Blue Fire catalysts, the Aprica 2 stove was finally prepared for approval according to the Blue Angel standard.
The Blue Fire catalysts integrated in the combustion chamber have the task of keeping CO emissions permanently below 500 mg/m3 of exhaust gas. For optimal functioning of the Blue Fire catalysts, the right amount of oxygen is required to oxidize the CO molecules with oxygen to CO2. This is ensured by the electronic combustion control of the Drooff company. The complete package also includes an electrostatic dust separator, which is mounted on the chimney mouth. This ensures the separation of the dust contained in the exhaust gas.
The Aprica 2 stove equipped in this way meets the requirements of the Blue Angel test criteria and is the first stove in Germany to pass this test.
We at Blue Fire are very proud to supply our catalysts for this innovative stove.
In the future more stoves from Drooff will be equipped with Blue Fire catalysts.
We are already looking forward to these exciting projects and wish the Drooff company every success with the Aprica 2 stove.
