controls the combustion air entering the burner on the requirement of the boiler heating during 

operating. The standard servomotor of the oil burner is Landis & Staefa STM6 with 5 cam motor. 

A fully closed position is provided to prevent air flowing through the appliance when the burner is 

not in operation. 

3)  The Inner Assembly. 

Consist of flame tube, diffuse, oil nozzle, ignition electrode and so on. 

4)  Oil Nozzle.

 The oil nozzles are held in a nozzle block located within the flame tube. The nozzles 

are  pre-sized  by  the  manufacture  according  with  the  heat  inputs  required  and  the  available 

operating pressure. When replace the nozzles, they must be the same capacity as the original.                 

NOTE 

When fitting nozzles to the heavy oil burners the nozzle filters must be removed. 

In calculating the correct size of nozzles to be fitted, the following 

should be taken into account:: 

Nozzles are marked for capacity and calibrated at an oil pressure 

of 7 bar/100psi. the correction factor to be used to establish the 

nozzle sizes is as follow: 
Nozzle marking

 

1.66

Imperial Gallons at 27.6 bar-400 PSI 

Nozzle marking

 

7.16    =    Kg/h at 27.6 bar-400 PSI 

5) Oil Preheater Tank( for heavy oil burners). 

The oil preheater 

tank is mounted on the heavy oil burner ahead of the fan housing. 

Its function is to preheat the oil to correct temperature. The unit is 

equipped with three thermostats, ‘low temperature’ ‘operating’ and 

‘limit’.  A  thermometer  and  hot  oil  filter  are  mounted  together  as 

one  unit  on  the  top  left-hand  side  of  the  preheater  tank  viewed 

from the rear of the burner. 

 

GAS BURNER 

1)  Air Pressure Switch.

 Each of the gas burners is mounted 

a Air Pressure Switch on the burner scroll. Lack of 

combustion air, or insufficient air pressure, will stop 

the  switch  completing  the  circuit,  preventing  the 

burner from operating.   

2)  Air Control 

The Air Control System of the gas burners is similar to 

that of the oil burners. The servomotor is mounted on 

the  rear  of  the  air  inlet  of  the  burner  and  directly 

coupled to the air damper blade. This system monitors 

and controls the combustion air entering the burner on 

the requirement of the boiler heating during operating. 

The standard servomotor of the oil burner is Landis & 

Staefa STM30 with 3 cam motor. The servomotor has 

been adjusted by manufacture before the boiler delivery, so normally customer needn’t to set it again. 

 

3)  Gas Train Assembly.

 

Consist of pilot and main supply line, each line having a manual cock, a governor, solenoid operated 

valves and two air pressure switch (high and low). The governors maintain a constant pressure of fuel 

entering the burner and are adjustable. The solenoid valves are electronically controlled by the burner 

programmer. For specific details, consult the burner manufacture’s instruction Manual. 

Three thermostats on the preheater tank
