Information about the device
Device description
The directly fired oil heater serves the purpose of heating the
room air so as to quickly heat large, well-ventilated rooms. The
oil heater runs on EL fuel oil or diesel, it must not be used with
petrol, heavy fuel oil etc.
It is an oil heater with direct combustion to be installed in roofed
outdoor areas or in rooms with a sufficient fresh air supply.
Functional principle
The device generates warmth by conveying the sucked-in, cold
air past a combustion chamber. Inside the combustion chamber
the fuel is burned. The sucked-in air is heated and fed back to
the environment via the air outlet.
A part of the sucked-in air is compressed and conducted to the
injection. The fuel is fed from the tank to the injection by the
negative pressure thus created. An ignition contact at the
injection ignites the fuel, which is then burned in a continuous
flame.
