22、L INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover oil-red storage-tank water-heating appliances having a fuel input of not more than 200,000 Btu per hour (60 kW). These requirements do not apply to heaters that include storage vessels having a water capacity of more than 120 gallons (454.2 liters)

23、, or that are intended for heating water to a temperature of more than 200F (93.3C). 1.2 The oil-burning equipment covered by these requirements are intended for installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association Standard for the Installation of Oil Burning Equipment, NFPA 31,

24、the International Mechanical Code and the Uniform Mechanical Code. 2 Glossary 2.1 For the purpose of this standard the following denitions apply. 2.2 ANTIFLOODING DEVICE A primary safety control that causes the fuel ow to be shut off upon a rise in fuel level or upon receiving excess fuel, and that

25、operates before discharge of fuel can occur. 2.3 APPLIANCE FLUE The ue passages within the appliance. 2.4 AUTOMATICALLY LIGHTED APPLIANCE An appliance in which fuel to the main burner is turned on and ignited automatically. 2.5 BAFFLE An object placed in an appliance to direct the ow of air or ue ga

26、ses. 2.6 BURNER A device for the nal conveyance of fuel or a mixture of fuel and air to the combustion zone. 2.7 BURNER, MECHANICAL-ATOMIZING A power operated burner that prepares and delivers the fuel and all or part of the air by mechanical process in controllable quantities for combustion. Some e

27、xamples are air atomizing, high- and low-pressure atomizing, horizontal and vertical rotary atomizing, and vertical rotary wall-ame burners. 2.8 BURNER, MECHANICAL-DRAFT A burner that includes a power driven fan, blower, or other mechanism as the principal means for supplying air for combustion. 2.9

28、 BURNER, NATURAL-DRAFT A burner that principally depends upon the natural draft created in the ue to induce into the burner the air required for combustion. 2.10 BURNER, VAPORIZING A burner consisting of an oil-vaporizing bowl or other receptacle to which liquid fuel may be fed in controllable quant

29、ities; the heat of combustion is used to vaporize the fuel, with provision for admitting air and mixing it with the fuel vapor in combustible proportions. 2.11 CASING An enclosure forming the outside of the appliance, no parts of which are likely to be subjected to intense heat.

31、s pertaining to materials adjacent to or in contact with heat-producing appliances, chimney connectors and vent connectors, steam and hot-water pipes,andwarm-airductsmeansmaterialmadeoforsurfacedwithwood,compressedpaper,plantbers, or other material that will ignite and burn. Such material shall be c

32、onsidered as combustible even though ameproofed, re-retardant treated, or plastered. 2.14 COMBUSTION The rapid oxidation of fuel accompanied by the production of heat, or heat and light. 2.15 COMBUSTION CHAMBER The portion of an appliance within which combustion occurs. 2.16 COMBUSTION (FLAME) SAFEG

33、UARD A safety combustion control. 2.17 CONSTANT-LEVEL VALVE A device that maintains a constant level of fuel oil in a reservoir for delivery to the burner. 2.18 CONTROL A device intended to regulate the fuel, air, water, or electrical supply to the controlled equipment. It may be automatic, semiauto

34、matic, or manual. 2.19 CONTROL, LIMIT An automatic safety control responsive to changes in liquid level, pressure, or temperature; for limiting the operation of the controlled equipment. 2.20 CONTROL, SAFETY An automatic control including a relay, switch, or other auxiliary equipment used in conjunc

35、tion therewith to form a safety control system that is intended to reduce the likelihood of operation of the controlled equipment that would result in a risk of re or injury to persons. 2.21 CONTROL, PRIMARY-SAFETY An automatic safety control intended to reduce the likelihood of abnormal discharge o

36、f fuel at the burner in case of ignition failure or ame failure. 2.22 CONTROL, SAFETY-COMBUSTION A primary-safety control responsive directly to ame properties; sensing the presence of ame and causing fuel to be shut off in event of ame failure. 2.23 DRAFT REGULATOR A device that functions to mainta

37、in a desired draft in the appliance by automatically reducing the chimney draft to the desired value. 2.24 ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS: a) High-Voltage Circuit A circuit involving a potential of not more than 600 volts and having circuit characteristics in excess of those of a low-voltage circuit. b) Low-Vo

38、ltage Circuit A circuit involving a potential of not more than 30 volts rms alternating- current (42.4 volts peak or direct current) and supplied by: 1) A primary battery; 2) A Class 2 transformer; or 3) A combination of transformer and xed impedance that, as a unit, complies with all the performanc

39、e requirements for a Class 2 transformer. JANUARY 31, 2018 OIL-FIRED STORAGE TANK WATER HEATERS - UL 732 6UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL A circuit derived from a high-voltage circuit, by connecting resistance in series with

40、the supply circuit as a means of limiting the voltage and current is not considered to be a low-voltage circuit. c) Safety-Control Circuit A circuit involving one or more safety controls. 2.25 FLUE COLLAR That portion of an appliance constructed for attachment of the chimney or vent connector. 2.26

41、FLUE GASES Combustion products and excess air. 2.27 FUEL OIL Any hydrocarbon oil dened by Standard Specications for Fuel Oils, ASTM D396-1992. 2.28 HEATING SURFACE A surface that transmits heat directly from ame or ue gases to the medium to be heated. 2.29 INDIRECT-FIRED APPLIANCE An appliance const

42、ructed so that combustion products or ue gases are not mixed in the appliance with the medium to be heated; hence is provided with a ue collar. 2.30 MAINTENANCE The periodic tasks usually performed to operate and maintain an appliance, such as air, fuel, pressure, and temperature regulation, cleanin

43、g, lubrication, resetting of controls, and the like. Repair and replacement of parts other than those expected to be renewed periodically is not considered to be maintenance. Some examples of maintenance are: a) Cleaning or replacing nozzles, atomizers, and pilots. b) Setting ignition electrodes. c)
