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 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 must operate safely in their industrial environment and the risks
involved may 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.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the test requirements for laboratory testing, the terminology, the general
requirements for the construction and operation of 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. To achieve the viscosity required for proper atomisation
preheating is necessary.
The standard is applicable to:
 single burners with a single combustion chamber, although such burners are fitted to a single appliance,
in which case the requirements of the relevant appliance standard shall additionally apply;
 single-fuel and dual-fuel burners when operating on oil only;
 the oil function of dual-fuel burners designed to operate independently on gaseous or liquid fuels. In
which case the requirements of EN 676 will also apply in respect of the gaseous fuel function.
