6.1.1
Double-pipe circuit
The burner is equipped with a self-priming pump which is capable
of feeding itself within the limits listed in the Tab. G.
The tank higher than the burner A (Fig. 17)
The distance "P" must not exceed 10 meters in order to avoid
subjecting the pump's seal to excessive strain; the distance "V"
must not exceed 4 meters in order to permit pump self-priming
even when the tank is almost completely empty.
The tank lower than the burner B (Fig. 17)
Pump depression values higher than 0.4 bar (35 cm Hg) must not
be exceeded because at higher levels gas is released from the
fuel, the pump starts making noise and its working life-span de-
creases.
It is good practice to ensure that the return and suction lines enter
the burner from the same height; in this way it will be less proba-
ble that the suction line fails to prime or stops priming.
6.1.2
The loop circuit
A loop circuit consists of a loop of piping departing from and re-
turning to the tank with an auxiliary pump that circulates the fuel
under pressure.
A branch connection from the loop goes to feed the burner.
This circuit is extremely useful whenever the burner pump does
not succeed in self-priming because the tank distance and/or
height difference are higher than the values listed in the Tab. G.

WARNING
Where gas oil containing bio diesel is in use, it is
recommended to avoid over oxygenation of the
blended fuels.
Where at all possible avoid the use of two pipe
systems where the circulated fuel is returned to
the tank.
If this cannot be avoided make sure that the return
pipe is normally below the surface of the fuel level
within the storage tank.
WARNING
In case of use with gas oil containing up to 10%
Bio blend, it will be essential to use flexible oil
lines suitable for bio fuel use.
Please contact Riello for further information.
DANGER
It is strongly recommended a periodic check of
the pump pressure operation (annually or better
every six months, if the burner operation is contin-
uous).
CAUTION
You are advised to use additional filters on the fuel
supply line.
Riello recommends a good quality fuel filter at the
tank (Fig. 17 - Fig. 18) and a secondary filter
(100
for gas oil and 15
for kerosene) are used
to protect the burner pump and nozzle from con-
tamination.
In case of Biodiesel use, pay attention to install
Biocompatible filters.
