Oil supply vacuum testing
A vacuum gauge can be attached to the oil pump vacuum test port [1]
and the boiler operated to check the vacuum readings. Oil pumps can
operate if readings are between plus 0.4 bar and minus 0.35 bar.
This means oil tanks can be 4 metres higher (to top of oil) or 3.5 metres
lower (if fitted with a de-aerator or two-pipe oil delivery system) than the
oil pump.
If vacuum is greater than minus 0.35 bar then you must also check that
the oil supply is not obstructed and that the oil supply pipe is correctly
sized.
Accessory 8-716-116-333-0 is available to assist in connecting a
vacuum gauge to the vacuum test port.
