Description
Flued oil stove with vaporizing burner
(Norm EN 1).
1.5.
Operating principle
Furnace oil is fed to the burner floor (fig. 3) where is it
ignited by means of a firestarter (or the Glow-plug
ignitor # 6). The heat produced by this flame brings the
burner temperature to the required level to vaporize the
fuel. Oil will only burn as a vapour not a liquid.
Room combustion air enters the burner through the air
inlet holes.
In the center of the burner is the catalyser (# 4, fig. 3)
which aids in vaporizing the fuel. When the stove is
operation, the catalyser glows red. The stove should
not be used with out both the catalyser (# 4, fig. 3),
catalyser top (# 3) and ring (# 2).
A de-scaling lever (# 7, fig.3) can be pushed and pulled
in and out as well as turning slightly at the same time to
keep the inlet pipe clear of carbon buildup.
The stove float regulator contains a filter to trap
impurities.
A safety lever controls fuel flow. Oil can only enter the
float chamber when the safety lever is depressed.
Oil temperature variations will affect the oil flow into the
float chamber. A float in the chamber raises the fuel
level available to the burner.
The float regulator is also controlled by a control knob
which turns from “0" (off) to ”6" (high setting).
A draught regulator (# 1, fig. 13, p. 7) ensures a
constant air intake to the burner regardless of external
factors.

- Position the unit to comply with the minimum
c l e a r a n c e s t o c o m b u s t i b l e m a t e r i a l . M i n i m u m
clearances are shown from the vertical portion of the
chimney connector. Check that no overhead cross
members in the ceiling will be cut. Reposition unit if
necessary, being careful not to move closer than the
minimum clearances.
- Outside air : For the oil stove to function properly, an
adequate supply of combustion air is required.
2.2.
Chimney
- Ensure that the flue has sufficient draught (refer to
technical details).
