BMK VARIO-P
20/30 KW
LOG/PELLET COMBI SYSTEM
The BMK Vario-P combines the benefits offered by the innovative and highly efficient BMK biomass converter with the convenience and economy of the BIOSTAR pellet system. This means the highest level of flexibility, optimum economy and perfect convenience.
Benefits
ECONOMICAL PELLET MODULE
The clever combination of the standalone log and pellet modules offers significant benefits compared with conventional systems: the system can be operated in the low temperature range, its output can be adapted flexibly, the log boiler will not get soiled and must not be kept to temperature by the pellet module. This assures you of a significantly higher utilisation level and brings savings of 15 % and more. As a result, the BMK Vario-P is the perfect choice for customers who want to heat constantly, or for longer periods at affordable prices using pellets – and are prepared to add logs as and when required.
HIGHLY EFFICIENT LOG MODULE
The high grade log module with stainless steel hopper is suitable for logs up to 0.5 m in length. Its innovative wood gasification technology lets it operate with high efficiency and extremely low emissions. This results in particularly low heating bills, even with high flow temperatures – and when it gets really cold. Logs are amongst the most favourably priced and crisis-resistant fuels available.
EFFICIENCY AND CLEANLINESS
The unique combustion concept with lateral rotating combustion chamber is clearly superior to conventional combustion systems when it comes to efficiency, flexibility and the protection of the environment. It enables very long periods of extremely clean combustion.
HIGHEST CONVENIENCE
In low temperature mode, the pellet module delivers heat to the heating circuits with high efficiency. Whilst heating up the log module, the Vario system automatically changes over into log mode and then back again. Complicated changeover procedures are a thing of the past. The large hopper, automatic ignition (option), the separating out of ash into an ash box and semi-automatic cleaning increase your heating convenience further when heating with logs.
INTELLIGENT CONTROLLER
The innovative touchscreen controller offers the highest operating convenience. The clear user prompts take you exactly where you want to be in just a few steps. This enables straightforward control and fast servicing.
HIGH GRADE COMPONENTS
To safeguard unsurpassed reliability, our Vario systems are made exclusively in Austria, from high grade materials. The robust ones
Highest level
of convenience
It's all a matter of technology
Hopper
The stainless steel hopper is resistant to acid and therefore optimally protected against corrosive gases. The additional lining also prevents possible damage from metallic foreign objects. Consequently, BMK means durability.
Display
The integral recharge indicator keeps you informed at all times of the current status of the buffer cylinder, so you'll know when to recharge.
BOX
BOX containers of various sizes are available to suit the dimensions of each available storage room. The steel floor and fabric design is extremely capacious and also allows the container to be emptied completely, thereby reducing the cleaning effort. An screw conveyor-dosing vacuum discharge guarantees highly reliable operation.
FLEX
Guntamatic Flex discharge units are suitable for particularly large, intensively used, storage facilities.
The discharge screw conveyor of the vacuum discharge system has been designed for efficiency and a long service life. It offers a highly reliable operation as well as low cleaning effort,
and discharge from stores with sloping floors. Where the sloping floors are made on site, this is also a particularly affordable solution.

Pellets make their case across the board: most originate in local woods and therefore safeguard local jobs; they represent a climate responsible and CO2 neutral method of heating (currently the only fuel to do so); and save up to 50 % on fuel costs compared to oil, gas or electric heating systems.
Wood is a sustainable fuel with excellent combustion values. It grows locally, is available in almost unlimited amounts, and offers short transportation routes.
