3.8 Insulation
At installation of an exhaust pipe it is necessary to
consider it's high temperature (to 500 °C, depending on
power) at operation.
Certain areas of the vehicle (electrical and other
systems) need extra protection from high temperatures. For
that reason, the exhaust pipe should be covered with
thermal insulation (Fig.14).
3.9 Fuel Supply.
It is forbidden to operate heaters on biofuel.
3.9.1 Fuel Tank Installation
Installation of the fuel tank is shown in Fig.19.
The fuel tank needs to be mounted so that
fuel which can be spilled when filling a fuel
tank, shouldn't be applied on an exhaust
system and an electrical wiring.
Fuel filler shall not be situated in the
passenger compartment, trunk, or engine
compartment.
Fuel, which may spill when the fuel tank is being
filled, should not get on the exhaust system or electrical
wiring.
In order to avoid leakage of fuel from the fuel tank (by
gravity) when the fuel pump loses its tightness, the fuel tank
should be preferably placed in such a way that the maximum
fuel level is below the cut-off plane of the fuel tube of the heater.
