Oil Tank Installation Specifications - Saturn 125 Operator's Manual

Oil Tank Installation Specifications

Ensure that your tank installation adheres to the following
safety guidelines as stated here and in
Section 1 of this manual.
The tank safety label (shown at right) also
summarizes these important specifications for tank
installation and usage. If you do not have a copy of this
label, please contact your Clean Burn dealer for
a copy, which is to be affixed directly to your used
oil supply tank.
• The tank installation must meet all
national and local codes. Consult your
local authorities for more information as
necessary.
• The tank must be listed to UL 80, UL 142,
or equivalent standard.
• Use a minimum 250-gallon tank.
DO NOT use a 55-gallon drum as a
substitute for an appropriate tank. The
tank must be large enough to allow water,
sludge, etc. to settle out of the used oil.
• Single wall tanks should have a manual shut-
off type valve on the side of the tank to
allow the water, sludge, etc. to be drained
from the bottom of the tank.
• All unused openings in the tank must be
plugged or capped off.
• For optimal system functioning, Clean Burn
Recommends inside tank installations as
shown in Figures 4A, 4F, and 4J.
• Some codes require the tank to be vented to
the outside of the building using iron or steel
pipe and fittings with an approved vent cap.
• Carefully review the oil tank and pump
installation details as shown in Figures 4A,
4F, and 4J. Pertinent information also
supplied with the metering pump and oil line
installation procedures (following in Sec. 4).
• Ensure that the oil supply tank is properly
maintained; refer to Section 9 in this manual
for related procedures.
ATTENTION: For outside tank installations and/or tanks larger than 500 gallons, contact your local
Clean Burn Distributor for installation recommendations and specifications.
