1.For oil-fired burners, it is necessary to clean the basket filter located between the tank and the oil pump. Regular maintenance of this filter ensures smooth fuel flow to the pump and reduces the risk of component failure. Additionally, inspect the filter for any signs of excessive wear or damage.
2.Pressure regulator valves – Verify that the lock nut on the adjustable bolt of the fuel pressure regulator or pressure reducing valve is clean and removable. If screws and nuts are found to be dirty or rusty, repair or replace the regulator as needed. A poorly maintained fuel regulator can cause instability in burner operation.
3.Oil pump – Inspect the oil pump to ensure that its sealing device remains intact and internal pressure remains stable; replace any damaged or leaking sealing components accordingly. If hot oil is used, ensure proper insulation of all tubing. In cases where there is a long oil pipe in use, check if installation route is suitable; replace damaged or poorly insulated sections with new ones as required.
4.”Y” filter cleaning is essential for effective filtration of heavy oil and residue, preventing clogging in fuel nozzles and valves.
5.Check burner’s pressure difference to verify normal functioning and whether oil pressure falls within appropriate range; this ensures accurate reading after adjusting burner settings.
6.Adjust nozzle’s nebulizer extension length while also testing low oil pressure switch functionality. 7. When using heavy oil, examine fuel heating and control devices along with checking for proper functioning of temperature switch on burner tube group.
8.Regularly assess viscosity requirements for heavy or residual oils being used.
9.Clean and lubricate valve connections regularly; repair or replace sticky or rough joints with suitable fittings when necessary.
10.Finally, adhere to manufacturer’s guidelines regarding regular nozzle cleaning procedures.
