Safety equipment

To ensure safe operation, the boilers must be equipped with safety
equipment:
• The safety equipment must at least meet the requirements of BS EN
12828:2012 ( chapter 13.1, page 39). These requirements also
apply in countries where BS EN 12828:2012 does not apply!
• Also observe country-specific regulations if these specify further
requirements.
• If the temperature limit (110 °C) varies in other countries, observe
the country-specific limit.
Equipment examples are included in chapter 13, page 39. The
components comprising the safety equipment are available as
accessories.

Permissible fuels

The boiler must only be operated with the specified fuels. Only burners
that are suitable for the specified fuels may be used.
Gas burner
The combustion of biogas is not permitted.
Permissible fuels:
• Natural gas from the public gas supply in accordance with national
regulations with a total sulphur content < 50 mg/m
• LPG in accordance with national regulations with a content of
elementary sulphur < 1.5 ppm and volatile sulphur < 50 ppm
Oil burner
Oil burners used must be suitable for low sulphur fuel oil. Observe the
manufacturer's oil burner selection list and the burner manufacturer's
instructions.
Permissible fuels:
• Low-sulphur extra-light fuel oil with a sulphur content < 50 ppm and
a proportion of bio-oil (FAME) ≤ 10 %.
Existing residual amounts of fuel oil with a sulphur content ≥ 50 ppm
must be pumped out and the oil tank cleaned.
Type tested dual burners can also be used. The requirements for the gas
side and the oil side described above also apply here. All products

Risk to life from inadequately secured boiler.
▶ Use suitable means of transportation (e.g. several pallet trucks,
a forklift truck, crane or heavy duty rollers).
▶ Observe the weight of the boiler and the maximum shipping weight of
the means of transport.
▶ When transporting, secure the boiler to the means of transport to
prevent it from slipping.
Securing the load
To secure the load during transportation:
▶ Never pull retaining straps (fixing straps, chains) [2] over the boiler
insulation [3].
The maximum tensile strength of each chain is 2 kN.
▶ Only secure retaining straps to the locking lugs [1].
