4.4.5 Tiger Loop system - (See Figs. 4 and 5)
1 When The storage tank is below the burner, an
alternative to a two pipe system can be achieved using
the Tiger Loop oil deaerator. This effectively removes
the air from the oil supply on a single pipe lift.
2 The Tiger Loop is connected close to the boiler as
a two pipe system (omitting the non-return valve)
as shown in Fig. 4. Refer to the manufacturers
instructions supplied with the Tiger Loop.
The Tiger Loop must be mounted vertically.
3 To be used with a Tiger Loop system, the burner
must be fitted with an additional flexible fuel line.
See Section 4.4.6.
Flexible fuel lines and adaptors are available from
Grant Engineering (UK) Ltd.
4.4.4 Two pipe system - (See Fig. 3)
1 When the storage tank outlet is below the burner,
the two pipe system should be used. The pipe runs
should be as shown in Fig. 3. The return pipe
should be at the same level in the tank as the
supply pipe, both being 75 to 100 mm above the
base of the tank. The pipe ends should be a
sufficient distance apart so as to prevent any
sediment disturbed by the return entering the
supply pipe.
2 Avoid the bottom of the tank being more than 3 m
below the burner.
3 A non-return valve should be fitted in the supply
pipe together with the filter and fire valve. A non-
return valve should be fitted in the return pipe if
the top of the tank is above the burner.
4 To be used with a two-pipe system, the burner
must be fitted with an additional flexible fuel line
(a flexible fuel line and
