FUEL SUPPLY

Do not change the boiler fuel without consulting the boiler manufacturer.
2.10.1

GAS SUPPLY

The gas/pressure requirement varies
according to the burner size and the gas
train selected.
Verify that the type and pressure of the
gas available on the site is suitable for the
burner fitted.
If the site gas pressure is too low, it will be
necessary to fit a gas booster system.
Consult Fulton Ltd if in doubt.
To minimise pressure drops, eliminate
all unnecessary bends and elbows in the
pipework between the gas meter and the
inlet to the gas train.
Ensure that a gas cock of the correct size
is installed as close as possible to the gas
train.
All gas pipework must be installed by
'Competent Persons' in accordance with
the gas regulations.
2.10.2

OIL SUPPLY

Oil-fired boilers are supplied with a
matched, automatic high/low oil burner
suitable for use with 35 SRNI fuel oil.
A single-pipe system can be used where
the suction is fully flooded, however, for
systems where 'lift' is required, it will be
necessary to install a two-pipe system.
For more details consult the burner
manufacturer's instruction manual.
The following points should be observed:
a) Always install an oil filter.
b) Use flexible pipework for the final oil
connections to the oil pump.
c) Fit isolating valves to the pump.
d) Ensure that the supply pipework is
sized to cause a minimum pressure
drop.
