Oil Piping - New Yorker FR SERIES Installation, Operating And Service Instructions

VII: OIL PIPING
A.
GENERAL
1. Use flexible oil line(s) so that burner door can
be opened, or burner can be removed, without
disconnecting the oil supply.
2. A supply line fuel oil filter is recommended as a
minimum for all firing rates but a pleated paper fuel
oil filter is recommended for the lowest firing rate
applications to prevent nozzle fouling.
3. Use Flared fittings only. Do not use compression
fittings.
4. Use of a high efficiency micron filter (Garber or
equivalent) in addition to the conventional filter is
highly recommended.
B.
Oil piping must be absolutely airtight or leaks or
loss of prime may result. Bleed line and fuel unit
completely.
