07. Net weight including refractories 3000 kgs
08. Burner Self proportioning for maximum efficiency having following outstanding Features :-
  • Constant air – oil ratio ; eliminates dependents on operator’s Judgement
  • Suitable for both manual and automatic control
  • Single lever to control oil and air flow simultaneously
  • Oil burning capacity 2 to 11 imperial gallons per hour at 25 inch w.g. air pressure
09. Blowers Motor 5 hp / 440 volt ac, rpm-2800/3000 , air pressure 22 to 28 w.g.air volume ( cfm  approx)  550
The blower is direct motor driven having streamlined steel construction. The impeller is statically and dynamically balanced & tested before despatch
10. Chambers
  • Fabricated in m.s. the shell is supported on fabricated steel legs
  • Both combustion chamber & mixing chambers can be grouted independently
  • Suitable steel strips for lagging are provided on mixing chambers
  • Swirlers are provided between combustion chamber and mixing chamber
  • Heat resisting aluminium paint is applied on the exteriors; interiors are not Painted as in operation this should cause paint to volatalise.
11. Burner quarl High heat duty refractory block specially cast and cured
12. Refractory lining for auxiliary combustion chamber The  entire inner circumferential surface of the chamber is to be covered with super heat duty refractory lining as shown in sketch

The bricks supplied for the purposes is of tapered type size 228mmx114mmx76mmx57mm, quantity-114 pcs.
13. Refractory lining for combustion chamber A portion of the innder circumferential surface of the chamber as shown in sketch is to be lined with high heat duty tapered type refractory lining. The fire bricks Supplied for the purpose is of size 228mmx114mmx76mmx63mm , quantity 176 pcs.
14. Insulation lining of quarl Inculation refractory in form of bricks are supplied ( 20 pcs)
15. Exhaust A suitable exhause connection with a chimney and damper arrangement is provided At the discharge of the fan as shown in sketch.
16. Flame viewer Provided on the mixing chamber for very clear viewing of flame behaviours.
17. Manhole An opening is provided on the mixing chamber with hinged door.
18. Oil circuit

With every kilomatic complete oil circuit is provided. A branch pipeline should be Taken and connected to the inlet and pipe ¾” dia. The recommended oil pressure is 10 to 15 psi. This required pressure is provided by :
Either 
Gravity feed system: over head tank should be at least 35 ft (11.7 mtr) above burner
Level and the connecting pipe should not be less than ¾” diameter.
Or
Ring main system: a pumping device that delivers oil at a regulated pressure. This System is more dependable than the conventional gravity feed system and does not need an overhead tank.

19. Filters A filter is provided to prevent suspended impurities from entering the burner and Clogging the nozzles.
20. Oil pressure gauge Is provided after the filter to gauge the oil pressure.
21. Thermo electric pre-heater The thermo-electric pre-heater (an entirely new concept) is built up on one wall of the burner quarl box.  An electric heating coil  with  thermostat is provided for Initial heating , the subsequent temperature control. A dial temperature. A pilot lamp provided on cap indicates whether or not the heating coil is under operation. The unit works with 220 a.c. electric supply, and when in operation consumes 2 kw of electric energy. Normally the heating coil will be cut in only during starting and only occassionally to boost the heat picked up from the burner quarl. For this reason even if the electric heating fails, starting may be done by applying external heat; subsequently the quarl will impart sufficient heat to keep the burner going.
22. Moisture trap-cum- preheater-sump

Is incorporated on the bass of the thermoelectric pre-heater/

23. Automatic cut off Valve    The diaphram type of automatic oil cut-off valve completely cuts off oil supply in case of an air supply failure due to accidental stoppage of blower
24. Sump tray A tray with sump and drain is provided below the burner to collect drained oil and Moisture.
25. Air pressure gauge May be supplied as an extra item but is not supplied as standard equipment Alongwith the heater.
