12.1 Oil supply
Observe EN 12514-2, DIN 4755, TRÖI and local regulations.
General information relating to the oil supply
Do not use cathode protection system with steel tanks.
With oil temperatures < 5 °C, the separation of paraffin can cause oil lines, oil fil-
ters and nozzles to become blocked. Avoid placing oil tanks and pipelines in
areas subject to frost.
The oil supply should be installed in such a way that the oil hoses can be con-
nected free of tension.
Fit oil filter in front of pump, recommended mesh aperture 70 μm.
Suction resistance and supply pressure
CAUTION
Pump damage due to excessive suction resistance
A suction resistance greater than 0.4 bar can damage the pump.
Reduce suction resistance – or – install oil supply pump or suction unit, whilst
observing the maximum supply pressure at the oil filter.
The suction resistance depends on:
suction line length and diameter,
pressure loss of oil filter and other components,
lowest oil level in the oil storage tank (max 3.5 m below the oil pump).
If an oil feeder pump is installed:
max 1.5 bar supply pressure at oil filter,
max 0.7 bar supply pressure into automatic de-aerator.
