Pellet boiler with leading technology:
Vitoligno 300-P
With its many technical innovations, the
Vitoligno 300-P truly sets new benchmarks: It offers efficiencies of up to 86% (gross) across its entire modulation range and low flue gas temperatures of just about 125°C, making it one of the top products on the market.
Double safety strategy: Lambda probe and flue gas temperature sensor
To regulate combustion, Viessmann makes use of two technologies: the Lambda probe and a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor monitors the amount of fuel and primary air.
Accordingly, the Lambda probe regulates the secondary air. This results in a reliable burnout across the entire modulation range.
High energy utilisation, even in the partial load range, with Variopass
The Vitoligno 300-P always matches its output precisely to the prevailing heat demand. For this, the rated output is modulating down from
100% to 30% by simply shutting off sections of the second and third pass. Consequently, the Vitoligno 300-P is also able to operate with smaller loads. This means a reliable start, lower emissions and higher efficiency, even in partial load operation.
Reliable and durable combustion chamber
The combustion chamber is made from a highly heat-resistant ceramic material. This stores heat for a particularly long time and thus makes it easier to ignite the pellets reliably.
For protection and a long service life: internal return temperature raising facility
All advanced heating systems operate with low return temperatures – the Vitoligno
300-P is no exception. The internal return temperature raising facility provides protection and safeguards a long service life for operation without heating water buffer cylinder. An additional shunt pump is not required.
Additional economy factor: low power consumption
The automatic ignition by the ceramic ignition element consumes substantially less power than the conventionally used fan ignition. It is also reliable and quiet in operation, requiring little maintenance. The Vitoligno 300-P was designed to operate with the fewest possible power consuming components to keep power consumption as low as possible.
4/5
The new Variopass principle matches the heating surface to the current operating state
Pellet boiler Automation included: convenient heating with wood
Handling the Vitoligno 300-P is extremely easy and makes heating with pellets convenient as never before. Almost everything is automated
– from charging to cleaning.
Automatic: clean heating surfaces for the best combustion results
The heating surfaces are cleaned automatically in programmed intervals. This guarantees low losses and excellent fuel utilisation.
Safe operation: newly developed rotary lock valve
The charge system combined with the rotary lock valve ensures precise fuel dosing and
100% back burning protection.
Reliable: combustion chamber cleaning with lamellar rotary grate
Wood pellets burn with few residues – even these are taken care of by the Vitoligno 300-P.
The combustion chamber is cleaned thoroughly and automatically at least once every 24 hours. A lamellar rotary grate additionally removes combustion residues. This guarantees combustion that is constantly optimised.
Convenient: ash removal
Subject to fuel consumption and heat demand, ash may only need to be removed three to four times each heating season. This is extremely convenient, not least because of the two lockable ash boxes.
Reliable removal of combustion residues through the lamellar grate
Control technology:
Heating economically by design
More than 40 years of experience in control technology are also reflected in the Vitotronic of the Vitoligno 300-P. It was specifically adapted to suit this new pellet boiler. It is easy to operate and ensures an energy efficient heating operation; in addition it offers many ease-of-use features.
Everything under control – without additional modules
The Vitotronic controls all components connected with the combustion process and the system as a whole using just one programming unit. It can control two mixer heating circuits or one mixer heating circuit with solar function, one DHW cylinder and one heating water buffer cylinder; alternatively systems with combi cylinder. No additional module is required for standard applications.
Solar data – always available
The programming unit of the Vitotronic that regulates the Vitoligno 300-P or the remote control display the current solar thermal data.
The collector and cylinder temperature are part of the data, as are the hours run by the solar thermal system.
Easy and convenient operation
The user prompts on a multi-line plain text display make operating the system easy.
Boiler with pellet supply, heating circuits and cylinder temperature control can all be operated intuitively. Adjusting all relevant parameters is made easy by the clear display with graphic capability.
Energy saving – pre-programmed on all
Vitotronic control units
An optimum combustion controller and a heating circuit pump shutdown are already integrated into the Vitotronic of the Vitoligno
300-P. This control activates when heat is no longer required, thus saving power and heating costs.
Convenience and economy functions – at the push of a button
Convenience and economy in one. The
Vitotronic makes it simply a question of adjustment as everything is made easy thanks to its menu prompts. For example, switching to economy mode for a shortterm temperature setback when you're away or changing over to party mode when central heating should be on a little longer than usually at night. Convenient: automatic summer/wintertime changeover.
Integral diagnostic system: delivers important information
The Vitotronic incorporates a diagnostic system that delivers important information to heating contractors. A laptop for commissioning, maintenance and service can be connected via the Optolink interface.

Pellet storage room Requirements to the pellet storage room
Discharge connector
Delivery connector max. 30 m
Location of the pellet storage room
Pellets can be supplied by means of tankers and blown into the pellet storage room.
A hose length of 30 metres should not be exceeded when filling the storage room.
If longer hose lengths are to be expected, please consult your pellet supplier to clarify the details.
The access route must be suitable for tankers.
Generally a road width of at least 3 metres and an overhead clearance of at least 4 metres are required.
If possible, the storage room should have an adjoining outside wall. There should be a 230 volt power supply for the pellet supplier's vacuum fan and an electrical isolator for the pellet boiler.

Practical experience favours a rectangular footprint for the storage room. Ensure the easy accessibility of the fill and discharge connectors. The size of the required storage room depends on the heat demand of the building. Considering the space that is not available, the following space requirement results as rule of thumb:
Rule of thumb:
Per 1 kW heat demand = 0.9 m³ of the
space (incl. empty space)
Available storage area: 2 /
3
of the room
1 m³ pellets = 650 kg
Energy content: approx. 5 kWh/kg
2 kg pellets equal approx. 1litre fuel oil
Example:
Heat demand, family home: 15 kW
15 kW heat demand • 0.9 m³/kW = 13.5 m³ storage room volume (incl. empty space)
Available room capacity
= 13.5 m³ • 2/3 = 9 m³
Amount of pellets
= 9 m³ • 650 kg/m³ = 5 850 kg
Size of storage room
= 13.5 m³ / 2.4 m (room height)
= 5.6 m² floor area (not smaller than 2 m • 3 m)
Stored amount of energy
= 5 850 kg x 5 kWh/kg = 29 250 kWh
(equivalent to approx. 3 000 litres fuel oil)

Vitoligno 300-P
The storage room is the standard method for storing pellets. Sloping floors can be created economically on site. These allow the pellets to slide centrally towards the room discharge auger, which enables a reliable emptying of the room that is as complete as possible. Where the storage room is located immediately adjacent to the boiler room, the pellets can be supplied directly into the rotary lock valve of the pellet boiler via a flexible auger. A pellet hopper at the boiler is then not required.
Requirements of the fuel storage room are subject to national or regional fire regulations.
