Oil Storage & Supply System
tiger Loop System
When The storage tank is below the
burner, an alternative to a two pipe
system can be achieved using a
‘Tiger Loop’ type oil de-aerator. This
effectively removes the air from the oil
supply on a single pipe lift.
The de-aerator is connected close
to the boiler as a two pipe system
(omitting the non-return valve) as shown
in Fig.
3-3. Refer to the manufacturer’s
instructions supplied with the
de-aerator. The de-aerator must be
mounted vertically, as shown in Figures
3-3 and 3-4.
To be used with a Tiger Loop system,
the burner must be fitted with an
additional flexible fuel line (a flexible fuel
line (900mm) and

To prevent any possibility of fuel
fumes entering the boiler, the
de-aerator must be fitted outside the
casing.
