Safety and prevention Safety and prevention Introduction The burners have been designed and built in compliance with it can be applied to boilers operating with water, steam, diather- current regulations and directives, applying the known technical mic oil, and to other uses expressly named by the manufacturer; rules of safety and envisaging all the potential danger situations.
Technical description of the burner Packaging - Weight • The burners are shipped in cardboard boxes with the maxi- mum dimensions shown in Tab. B. • The weight of the burner complete with packaging is indicat- ed in Tab. B. Fig.
Technical description of the burner Firing rates The burners can work in two ways: one stage and two stage. RLS 28 MAXIMUM OUTPUT must be selected in area A (and B for model RLS 50). In order to utilize also area B (RLS 50) it is necessary to perform the calibration of the combustion head as explained on page 15.
