Are there any requirements regarding the diameter of the fuel pipe for the pilot light in a atmospheric and vacuum distillation furnace?»

There are no special requirements; just don’t turn off the engine and don’t reverse. We lead it to an open area using rubber hoses, and then connect a DN20 fitting to it at the entrance of the soil furnace (at the end of the everlasting flame, similar to a torch tip)

I haven’t heard of any specific regulations, but it shouldn’t be too detailed; a flame arrester needs to be installed. Ours is DN25.

There aren’t many requirements, but it’s important to carry out regular maintenance and inspections. Many people don’t take these constant-lit lights seriously, thinking it doesn’t matter if they go out; however, that’s not the case. You only realize their importance after an accident occurs, especially with gas-fired heaters!

There shouldn’t be too many requirements, but the diameter can’t be too large; otherwise, gas loss will be excessive.

I haven’t heard of any special requirements; it’s just sufficient to use a metal hose to connect the branch behind the flame arrester and lead it into the furnace!

I haven’t heard of any special requirements, but a flame arrester must definitely be installed. In our facility: when there isn’t enough gas for combustion, a pipe is connected to release the gas into the atmosphere. Of course, this is only a temporary solution; doing this on a regular basis is wasteful and pollutes the environment.

Installed before the temperature control valve, unaffected by gas (dry gas) flow rate

A flame arrester is necessary; generally, it is a pipeline with a DN25 diameter, and a metal hose (quick connector) is used as well.
