Overview

prEN 267 rev - Forced draught burners for liquid fuels (CEN) defines terminology, construction, operation, control and safety requirements, and test procedures for forced-draught oil burners. The draft covers burners handling conventional first raffinates and their mixtures with biogenous liquid fuels (viscosity 1.6–6 mm²/s at 20 °C) and higher‑viscosity petroleum raffinates that require preheating for atomization. It applies to single burners (including single‑appliance installations), single‑fuel and dual‑fuel burners (oil mode), and burners fitted to pressurised bodies where relevant.

Key Topics

  • Scope & definitions: standardized terminology for burner components, combustion chamber and test rigs (ICS 27.060.10).
  • Construction & equipment requirements: mechanical design, atomization types, ignition methods, fuel/air delivery and protective devices.
  • Control and safety devices: sequencing, automatic and semi-automatic control methods, interlocks, air‑proving and external safety limiters.
  • Testing & performance: test rig setup, test conditions, measuring equipment and accuracy, test programmes and conformity evaluation.
  • Emissions & combustion quality: smoke number (Annex A), NOx and hydrocarbon measurement methods (Annex B, D) and corrections for air/fuel conditions.
  • Machine safety & hazards: significant hazards and protective measures (Annex J), safety life‑cycle considerations.
  • Pressurised components: additional requirements for burners with pressurised parts or firing pressurised bodies in line with the Pressure Equipment Directive (Annex K).
  • Electrical requirements: modifications and interface guidance referencing EN 60204‑1 (Annex L, N).

Introduction
This European Standard is primarily intended for automatic forced draught oil burners having a combustion air
fan, operated with liquid fuels, and intended to be marketed as a complete assembly.
Forced draught oil burners according to this European Standard are often used in industrial applications. The
safety principles are the same as for forced draught oil burners used for household/commercial applications.
Industrial forced draught oil burners however need to operate safely in their industrial environment and the
risks involved can differ from those for household applications. These industrial forced draught oil burners can
be characterised by the ability to withstand industrial environmental influences, like moisture, high temperature,
electrical and magnetic phenomena, vibrations, etc.
Special requirements for forced draught burners for industrial premises will be given as a note with the
addition "Industrial application".
Further information and application limitations for forced draught burners, which are used for industrial
application, are given in informative Annex H.
Principal requirements for installation of oil burners for industrial thermal processing are covered by EN 746-1
to -8.
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standard, for machines
that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.

prEN 267:2012 (E)
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the terminology, the general requirements for the construction and
operation of forced draught oil burners and also the provision of control and safety devices, and the test
procedure for these burners.
This European Standard applies to automatic forced draught oil burners supplied with:
 a fuel having a viscosity at the burner inlet of 1,6 mm²/s (cSt) up to 6 mm²/s (cSt) at 20 °C; and
 higher boiling petroleum based first raffinates (viscosity greater than 6 mm /s), that require preheating for
proper atomisation.
This European Standard is applicable to:
 single burners fitted to a single combustion chamber;
 single burners fitted to an appliance with additional requirements, then the relevant standard of this
appliance shall be taken into account;
 single-fuel and dual-fuel burners when operating on oil only;
 the oil function of dual-fuel burners designed to operate simultaneously on gaseous and liquid fuels, in
which case the requirements of EN 676 will also apply in respect of the gaseous fuel function.
This European Standard deals with all significant machine hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant
to burners, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable
by the manufacturer, see Annex J.
This European Standard also deals with the additional requirements for the burners in the scope with
pressurised parts and/or firing pressurised bodies, see Annex K.
This European Standard specifies the requirements to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the safety during
commissioning, start-up, operation, shut-down and maintenance.
This European Standard does not deal with hazards due to specific applications.
This European Standard is not applicable to automatic forced draught oil burners which are manufactured
before the date of its publication as European Standard.
This European Standard deals also with forced draught burners intended to be used with biogenous fuels,
mixtures.
This European Standard deals also with burners equipped to increase the total appliance efficiency; see
Annex M.
