The oil supply connection between the storage tank and
the oil pipe should be run in copper pipe with a minimum
diameter of 10mm. Galvanised pipes and fittings should
not be used. Annealed copper pipe is preferred with a
flare type manipulative fittings. Capillary fittings with soft
solder should not be used. Steel pipes should be joined
using taper threads.
All pipework and fittings must be completely air tight. Only
oil resistant compounds and PTFE tape should be used
when making joints. Pipe work must be protected against
damage whether fitted above or below ground.
The size and arrangement of pipe work will depend upon
the distance and height of the oil storage tank in relation
to the oil pump inlet.
The oil line from the storage tank to the appliance
must be fitted with a remote acting OFTEC approved
fire valve operating at 150°F, fitted with an
appropriate length of capillary to enable the valve
body to be located externally at the point where the
oil line enters the building, 0.5 metres of capillary will
be required to insert into the appliance at the phial
end.
The 5-10 micron oil filter supplied with the appliance must
be fitted to the oil pipe and stop valve must be fitted as
close to the cooker as possible in an accessible position.
A flexible pipe connection, approximately 1000mm long,
is supplied to fit between the oil supply pipe and the oil
pump for ease of burner removal. This must be contained
within the appliance.
The minimum recommended oil tank size is 1400
litres and the code of practice governing its
installation are covered by BS 5420: Part 1. Mild Steel
tanks should be to BS 799: Part 5 and plastic tanks to
OFTEC Standard OFS T100.
