3.5 - POSITIONING IN THE
BOILER ROOM
The steam generator must be installed in a place that complies
with the safety requirements in force in the country of destina-
tion, with adequately dimensioned ventilation openings.
In the absence of specific provisions of the country of destina
-
tion, the following indications must be complied with:
1) The premises must be enabled to the exclusive use of the
boiler room: access must be forbidden (with visible signs) to
unauthorised personnel.
2) Wide spaces must be set up for operation and maintenance
of all system components (pumps, valves, filters, water treat
-
ment system, heat exchangers, etc.).
3) The support base must be raised 5 - 10 cm, in concrete, flat
and able to support the weight of the generator and the rela-
tive water content.
For the dimensions of the basement, see paragraph 2.3 - DI-
MENSIONS (A x C parameter)
4) The premises must have dimensions such as to ensure the
following minimum distances are net of any size:
a) In order to make it easier to clean the smoke circuit, there
must be a free space on the front of the generator, not less
than the length of the boiler body (see 2.3 - DIMENSIONS,
parameter C) and, in any case, never less than 1500 mm
and it must be checked that with the door opened 90°,
the distance between the door and the adjacent wall is at
least equal to the length of the burner.
b) On the two sides of the generator: 0.80 m, reduced to
0.60 m if the generator is adjacent to a wall or to another
generator and no accessory or control is provided in the
passage.
(*) If the steam boiler is equipped with an econimiser, a cle-
arance equal to the width of the boiler must be left, in
order to allow for it to be removed easily.
c) On the rear part of the generator: 0.80m.
d) From the upper part of the generator: 1.80 m between the
highest walking surface and the lowest obstacle of the
premises cover and 1 metre between the highest point of
the generator and the lowest obstacle between the gener-
ator and the cover itself. It is recommended to leave a free
space at least equal to the length of the generator coil; this
allows for a possible replacement.
e) The piping and transmissions available above the genera-
tor, must be arranged so as not to hinder the work, nor ob-
struct the operator movement in accessing the upper part
of the generator itself to visit or repair the accessories.
ATTENTION:
If the burner is powered with fuel of specific
weight above that of air, the electrical parts
must be placed at a height from the ground
above 0.5 m.
