A fire valve and filter must be fitted in the fuel supply to the burner. (Not Supplied).
Current standards state that the "BIO-FUEL" has a blend of between 7% and 10%.
If a higher blend is being used then the burner manufacturer
MUST
be contacted for additional guidance.
Use either Kerosene Class C2 (BS2869) or Gas Oil Class D (BS2869). NO OTHER FUEL SHOULD BE USED.
Schematic representations of the fuel supply are shown below. It is suggested where possible a gravity feed is used.
Should a negative head system be employed, see typical example below.
MATERIALS AND JOINTING
All materials including the fuel storage tank, fuel supply pipe and jointing materials mustcomply fully with the
requirements in BS5410.
SITING OF FUEL STORAGE TANK
The siting of the fuel storage tank must fully comply with the requirements in BS5410.
