Conventions in this Manual Read these instructions carefully before installation, commissioning or maintenance of the burner. The given instructions must be followed. Throughout this manual, the following three symbols are used to point out very important information: WARNING! A warning alerts you to possible danger to person, if the instructions are not followed.
General Oilon KP-6...KP-6 H-2 burners are fully automatic light oil burners. These burners can be used on most heating appliances such as hot water boilers, steam boilers and air heaters. A fan attached to the burner and dimensioned to provide a sufficiently high and even air pressure for efficient combustion in modern combustion chambers delivers the required air.

CAUTION! The burner must be installed firmly. Vibrations may damage burner or its components. Prior to first start-up the oil pump must be vented. The pump must not CAUTION! operate without oil. See chapter ”Oil Pumps”. WARNING! In case of fire or other danger: switch off the main switch close the main fuel shut-off valve outside the plant take appropriate actions.
1 Mounting plate BURNER Ø D2 2 Gasket KP-6, -6 L, -6 LH 3 Thermal insulation KP-6-2, -6 H-2 The mounting plate must have either two or four M10 threaded holes for the mounting of the burner according to the drawing.
4.4. Connecting the Burner to the Mains KP-6, KP-6 L, KP-6-2 Electrical connection on burner is with a plug connector. Connect the cable of the plug supplied with the burner to the boiler thermostat. The socket has been firmly attached to the burner housing.
Fuel System 5.1. Oil Piping The oil tank and the oil pipes must be installed to avoid the risk of the oil cooling below cloud point. The cloud point of heating oil depends on the oil quality. If the oil is allowed to cool to the cloud point, valves and filters will block.

P1=7 bar To convert kg/h into l/h, divide kg/h by the density of fuel oil (0,833 g/cm³). On burners KP-6 L and -6 LH the nozzle capacities are approx. 10-15 % smaller than on burners KP-6, -6-2 and -6 H-2.
8.1.1. Oil Pump Pressure Regulation 1-stage burners Fit a pressure gauge in the connection (see chapter ”Oil Pumps”). Adjust the oil pressure by turning the pressure regulating screw. The pressure increases by turning the screw clockwise and decreases counter-clockwise. When the pressure is altered the oil flow and pressure follow the following formula: capacity marked on the nozzle nozzle capacity at a pressure of P2 7 bar gives USgal/h...
8.2. Combustion Head Adjustment 8.2.1. Setting the Nozzle and the Ignition Electrodes The following drawing shows the distance of the nozzle (4) from the diffuser disc (6). Set the ignition electrode spark gap and distance from the diffuser disc (6) and from the nozzle (4) as shown on the drawing.
8.2.2. Adjusting the Air Velocity in the Combustion Head Adjust the air velocity in the combustion head by loosening the locking screw (4) of the adjustment ring and moving the ring in the direction of the flame tube (1) to change the distance between the adjustment ring and the edge of the diffuser disc (2).
4 Adjustment ring Position of Nut on Adjustment Ring The adjustment ring has three slots for the nut of the locking screw. On burners KP-6, KP-6 L and KP-6 H-2 the nut is placed on the middle slot (pre-set at the factory.
8.4. 2-Stage Burners (”H” Burners) Functions of cam discs in servomotor SQN Set the switching points of cam discs manually or by turning with the adjusting key. Air damper ”closed”/(°). The adjustment has been made at the factory. III : Air damper position at stage 1/(°) Solenoid valve of stage 2 Air damper position at stage 2/(°)
8.5. Air Cone Position If the air cone has to be replaced or removed, it has to be installed in the right position with respect to the burners housing. The right position is shown in the drawing below. After replacement check by turning the fan wheel by hand, that it does not touch the cone. The fan wheel can be turned after loosening the sight glass.

9.2. Control Functions in the Event of Faults Extraneous light / premature flame signal During pre-purge and/or pre-ignition period there must never be a flame signal. If there is a signal during this period, caused possibly by premature ignition due to a leaking oil valve, extraneous light, a short-circuit in the flame detector (photo resistor) or its wiring, a fault in the flame signal amplifier, etc., the control unit locks out on expire of the pre-purging and safety period.
9.5. Measurement of Flame Signal This control unit is a safety unit! Do not open it. Any unauthorised WARNING! tampering can result in unforeseen detrimental consequences. 20039847GB...
10. Maintenance Always switch off the electric power from your burner and shut the WARNING! manual shut-off valves in the fuel supply line before servicing your burner. When inspecting your burner you only have to switch off the electric power from your burner. The manual shut-off valves in the fuel supply line can then be open.
11. Fault Conditions and Procedures In the event of fault conditions the basic requirements for correct operation must be first examined: 1. Check the electric supply (control voltage). 2. Check that all control devices are correctly set. 3. Are the safety devices in normal operating condition? 4.
