Specifications For Propane Use - baltur TBML 200 ME Instruction Manual For Installation, Use And Maintenance

SPECIFICATIONS FOR PROPANE USE

• Operating costs approximate assessment;
- 1 m3 of liquid gas in gaseous stage has a lower heating capacity,
of nearly 25.6 kWh.
- To obtain 1 cu.m of gas, about 2 kg of liquid gas are needed, i.e.
about 4 litres of liquid gas.
• Safety provisions
• Liquid propane gas (L.P.G.) in the gaseous form has a greater speci-
fic weight than air (specific weight relative to air = 1.56 for propane),
which means it does not disperse in air like natural gas, which has a
lower specific weight than air (specific weight of natural gas relative
to air = 0.60), but precipitates and spreads out at ground level (as if
it were a liquid). Summing up the concepts we deem most relevant
fir the use of LPG
• Liquefied petroleum gas (L.P.G.) burners and/or boilers may be used
only in premises located above ground level and certified toward
free spaces. Installations using liquid gas are not allowed in under-
ground or semi-underground premises.
• Rooms where liquid gas is used must have ventilation inlets without
closing devices, located on external walls, in compliance with the
local exiting rules.
• Carrying out the propane gas system to ensure cor-
rect, safe operation.
Natural gasification from sets of cylinders or a tank can be used only
in low power systems. Gas supply capacity on the basis of tank size
and minimum outdoor temperature are shown in the table below, as
an approximate indication only.
DANGER / ATTENTION
The maximum and minimum power (kW) of the burner refers
to natural gas which is more or less the same as with propane.
• Combustion control
To keep consumption down and mainly to prevent serious problems,
regulate the combustion using the specific instruments. It is absolu-
tely essential to check that the percentage of carbon monoxide (CO)
does not exceed the maximum permitted value by the local existing
regulation (use a combustion analyser or other similar instrument).
DANGER / ATTENTION
The warranty does not cover burners burning liquid gas (L.P.G.)
in installations in which these measures have not been taken.
