This Part of BS 799 specifies oil burning installations for land and marine purposes. The installations may comprise single or multiple arrangement of atomizing type burners and associated equipment that is not assembled on the same frame or in the same housing. The installations are for use with liquid fuels as specified in BS 2869 or Alternative Liquid Fuels (ALF) having essentially similar characteristics. Reference to oil burners, oil heaters, etc. implies use with either liquid fuel.
This standard does not apply to gas turbines and internal combustion engines.
NOTE 1 Where the oil burning installation is part of a plant that is required to be certified under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 or any other legislation, reference should be made to such legislation.
Attention should also be given to SI 2169, 1989, The Pressure Systems and the Transportable Gas Containers Regulations 1989, as parts of these are pertinent to certain aspects of large burner installations, especially those with steam oil-preheaters.
NOTE 2 For burners burning fuel at below 30 kg/h, see BS EN 230 with respect to safety times.
NOTE 3 The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on page 20.
A newer version of this standard is available.
