3.4.1 Where
it is proposed to use an alternative means of firing, such as oil
or coal/oil slurry mixtures, the arrangements are to be in accordance
with the requirements for oil burning, see
Pt 5, Ch 14 Machinery Piping Systems.
3.4.2 Particular
attention is drawn to the requirements concerning arrangements for
securely locking up-take dampers in the fully open position when burning
fuel oil.
3.4.3 Where
it is proposed to use fuel oil burners for lighting up coal fires,
details are to be submitted of the pre-purging sequences of the boiler
before lighting-up burners are introduced into the furnace.
3.4.4 Where
it is proposed to employ lighting-up burners using diesel oil or similar
marine distillate fuels, they are to be provided with their own combustion
air supply.
3.4.5 Where
it is proposed to use steam purging or steam atomising oil burners
with coal fired boilers, particular attention is to be given to furnace
purging arrangements. Details of the purging sequences are to be submitted.
3.4.6 The
arrangements for purging the oil burners are to be such that the minimum
practicable volume of oil will be introduced into the boiler furnace.
