3.3
Oil lines
Always use oil-resistant lines with the correct line clips.
The following features of the oil supply system must be compatible with one another:
•
The total length of oil line used (i.e. fuel line run);
•
The diameter of the oil line;
•
The height difference between the oil tank and the heater;
•
The type of fuel to be used.
The table below shows the permissible combinations. Make sure that the oil supply system complies
with this table. The figures in the table have been worked out on the assumption that the heater is
higher than the oil tank.
Fuel:
kerosene (paraffin oil) 2,15 mm²/s (cST)
diesel (domestic fuel oil) 6,00 mm²/s (cST)
H =
difference in height between bottom of oil
tank (or oil box) and oil pump on heater (in meters).
Ø =
internal diameter of oil line (in millimeters).
L =
maximum allowable oil line run (in meters).
