GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
General rules
The installation of an oil burner
should be carried out in accordance
with local regulations. The installer of
the burner must therefore be aware
of all regulations relating to oil and
combustion.
Only oil suitable for the burner should
be used and then in combination with
a suitable oil filter before the oil pump
of the burner.
If the burner is replacing an existing
burner make sure that the oil filter is
replaced or cleaned. The installation
must only be undertaken by
experienced personnel. Care should
be taken by the installer to ensure that
no electrical cables or fuel/gas pipes
are trapped or damaged during
installation or service/maintenance.
Installation instructions
General installation instructions
accompany the burner and should be
left in a prominent place adjacent to
the burner.
Adjustment of burner
The burner is from the factory pre-set
to an average value that must then be
adjusted to the boiler in question.
All burner adjustments must be made in
accordance with boiler manufacturers
instructions.These must include the
checking of flue gas temperatures,
average water temperature and CO2
or O2 concentration.
To adjust the combustion device,
start by increasing the air volume
somewhat.
When the burner starts it is burning
with excess air and smoke number
0. Reduce the air volume until soot
occurs and increase again to reach
a combustion free of soot.
By this procedure an optimum
adjustment is obtained. If larger
nozzles are used the preadjustment of
the air volume must be increased.
Condensation in chimney
A modern burner works with less
excess air and often also with smaller
nozzles than older models. This
increases the efficiency but also the risk
of condensation in the chimney. The risk
increases if the area of the chimney flue
is too large. The temperature of the flue
gases should exceed 60C measured
0,5 metres from the chimney top.

Measures to raise the temperature:

Insulate the chimney in cold attics
Install a chimney liner
Install a draught regulator (dilutes the
flue gases during operation and dries
them up during standstill)
Increase the oil quantity
Raise the flue gas temperature by
removing turbulators, if any, in the
boiler.
Instructions for use
The end user should be instructed
about the operation and safety
features of the burner.
He should also be made aware of
the importance of the area around
the boiler/burner being kept free of
combustible material.
Pump adjustment
See separate description.

Adjustment of burner
To obtain a correct adjustment a
flue gas analysis and a temperature
measurement must be carried out.
Otherwise there is a risk that a bad
adjustment may cause a formation of
soot, bad efficiency or condensate in
the chimney.
Maintenance
The boiler/burner should be examined
regularly for any signs of malfunction
or oil leakage.

Function
1. Switch on operating switch and twin thermostat

The burner motor starts, an ignition spark is formed, the prepurge goes

on till the prepurge period expires and the solenoid valve opens (2).
2. Solenoid valve opens

Oil mist is formed and ignited. The photocell indicates a flame.
(1) The ignition spark goes out 15 s. after flame indication (LOA24.171...).
(2) The ignition spark goes out 2 s. after flame indication when the ignition
transformer is connected to terminal 7 (LOA24.173...).
3. The safety time expires

a. If no flame is established before this time limit the control cuts out.

b. If for some reasons the flame disappears after this time limit, the
burner will make an attempt to re-start.
3-4. Operating position

If the burner operation is interrupted by means of the main switch or the
thermostat, a new start takes place when the conditions in accordance

with point 1 are fulfilled.

The oil burner control cuts out

A red lamp in the control is lit. Press the reset button and the burner
re-starts.

Post-ignition
(2) If a post-igniton of 15 s. is wanted, move the ignition transformer

Purging
On 1-pipe systems it is necessary to
purge the pump. On 2-pipe systems
purging is automatic through the
return line.

Suction line tables

The suction line tables consist of
theoretically calculated values where
the pipe dimensions and oil velocity
have been matched so that turbulences
will not occur. Such turbulences will
result in increased pressure losses and
in acoustic noise in the pipe system. In
addition to drawn copper piping a pipe
system usually comprises 4 elbows, a
non-return valve, a cut-off valve and an
external oil filter.
The sum of these individual resistances
is so insignificant that they can be
disregarded. The tables do not include
any lengths exceeding 100 m as
experience shows that longer lengths
are not needed.
The tables apply to a standard fuel
oil of normal commercial quality
according to current standards. On
commissioning with an empty tube
system the oil pump should not be
run without oil for more than 5 min.
(a condition is that the pump is being
lubricated during operation).
The tables state the total suction line
length in metres at a nozzle capacity
of 2,5 kg/h. Max. permissible
pressure at the suction and pressure
side is 2,0 bar.

INSTRUCTIONS PUMP TYPE DANFOSS BFP41

Function Danfoss BFP41
When the oil pump is started, oil is
drawn from the suction connection
(S) through the filter (H) to the suction
side of the gear wheel (C).
The gear wheel then pumps oil to the
pressure side and the oil is put under
pressure.
The pressure is controlled and kept
constant at the set value by the
regulating valve (P1) with the
diaphragm (D).
The regulating valve (P1) distributes
the oil quantity supplied by the gear set
(C) between the nozzle port (E) and
the return side of the pump (R).
The oil quantity utilized is determined
by the set pressure on the regulating
valve (P1) and the size of the oil nozzle
in the nozzle line.
The valve (P1) functions in the following
way:
- When the opening pressure has
been reached, the passage to the
return side opens.
- The diaphragm and the spring
keep the pump pressure constant
at set value.
- If the pump is overloaded, i.e. if
you try to get out more

oil than the gear set can supply
under existing circum-stances, the
oil pressure falls below the set value
and the valve closes against the
return side (R) by means of the
diaphragm (D) and goes into starting
position.
This can be remedied by:
- Reducing the pump pressure.
- Reducing the oil quantity supplied
by using a smaller nozzle.
- Using a pump with a larger capacity.

Burner with preheating

Consider that the oil quantity is
reduced at preheating by 5-20%
depending on.
- Rise in temperature at the nozzle
- Nozzle design
- Capacity (high capacity - small
difference)

How to remove cartridge filter

from plug
Unscrew the cartridge filter plug in
the cover by means of a 4 mm allen
key and withdraw the cartridge filter. If
necessary, put a screwdriver between
the cartridge filter and the plug and
turn the cartridge filter carefully until
it comes off. Reject the cartridge filter
and replace it by a new one. Press it
on to the plug. Ensure that the
O-ring is not damaged. Then fit the
new cartridge filter to the pump.

OIL BURNERS MAINTENANCE

INSTRUCTIONS
General information

If the burner starts but does not ignite

Keep the boiler room clean. Ensure that the boiler

room has permanent fresh air intake. Switch off before
dismantling the oil burner.
At hinged mounting, make sure that an automatic safety
switch is fitted, so that the burner cannot start when
theswing door is open.
Dont use the oil fired boiler to burn paper or
rubbish,unless the boiler is especially fitted with a hinged
door tomake this possible.
Dont fill tank while burner is working.

Make an attempt to start the burner.

Never make close repeated start attempts.
Dont restart the burner until the boiler is free from oil
gases.
If the burner still does not ignite send for the service
engineer.

Starting precautions
Make sure that the oil tank is not empty
Make sure that the valves on oil and water supply pipes
areopen.
Make sure that the boiler flue damper is open.
Make sure that the boiler thermostat is set at the correct
temperature.
Switch on the current. Most relay systems have a
delayed action so that the burner will not start for
perhaps 20 seconds.
With heavy oil the delay will be longer as the burner
will notstart until the oil in the preheater reaches the
requiredtemperature.
If the burner will not start

When switching off during summer

Always use the main switch to cut out the burner even
when adjusting the burner or cutting off the heating for
ashort time. For longer periods of shut down, close all
valves and the oil supply stop-cock.
Clean the filter and nozzle by washing in petrol or
paraffin.
Make sure the filter medium is not damaged or defective.
Protect electrical gear from damp.
Warning
Never stand too near or put your face to the inspection
or fire door, when the burner is about to start.
Never use a naked flame to ignite oil if the electrical
ignition fails.
Always wait for about 10 minutes for the unburnt gases
to disperse before restarting the oil burner if it has failed
to ignite previously.

Press the reset button on the relay. Check that the

thermostats are correctly adjusted.
Dont forget the room thermostat, check that any
fusesare intact and main switch is on.
