The vacuum switch in a pellet stove is a safety feature. If the exhaust pipe or vent becomes clogged it creates positive pressure to the vacuum switch, the switch then activates and shuts down the pellet feed or the whole stove itself. This keeps your family safe from carbon-monoxide poisoning.

When a small metal pellet is dropped into the water the pellet moves up and down through the water in a circular pattern Which process is causing the pellet's movement?
An object large enough to be called a pellet would be too large to be affected by "Brownian Motion" so I'm going to guess that you are observing a pellet dropped into carbonated water. If that is the case, the pellet provides a surface where the carbon dioxide can form a bubble through the process of effervescence or nucleation. The bubble of carbon dioxide provides the buoyancy to carry the pellet to the surface. Once the pellet rises to the surface, the bubble bursts and the pellet begins to sink again.If the metal pellet was made of some water-reactive metal such as calcium or magnesium, the pellet could be producing hydrogen bubbles on the surface as it reacts with the water to form the metal hydroxide. That being the case, there would be no need for carbonation to achieve the effect.
