Exhaust hood
•
Tumble dryer
•
Ventilation equipment
•
Prevent small animals from entering the boiler room, particularly through the air inlet vents
−
– by fitting them with screens.
−
Maintain clearances between the boiler and flammable materials in accordance with local
regulations. A minimum clearance of 16" is required. Never store flammable materials or
liquids in the vicinity of the boiler.
In case of an acute risk of flooding, disconnect the boiler in time from its fuel and power
−
supply before water enters the room. Any components or control equipment, which came in
contact with flood water, must be replaced before re-commissioning.

Notes – Requirement in greater detail
−
This boiler can be operated with following fuels. Select a burner that is suitable for one of
these fuel types:
Fuel oil in accordance with the burner specification. If a poorer quality oil (kinematic
•
viscosity > 0.0093 sq in/sec (> 45.5 s Sayboldt) at 68 °F) is used, the maintenance and
cleaning periods must be reduced. In that case, carry out maintenance and cleaning
procedures at least twice a year.
Natural gas in accordance with the burner specification
•

Free of contaminants (for example dust, mist, humidity), i. e. a constant operation will not
lead to accumulation of deposits, in valves, strainers and filters and could lead to service
calls.
