Dear Danfosspartner

Dear Danfoss partner

As one of the most important oil nozzle manu-facturers Danfoss wants with this booklet to be of assistance to you in your daily work.

With this booklet you can choose and fit Danfoss oil nozzles for all purposes and for any demand.

In addition to that you get valuable tips and refe-rences to how to fit oil nozzles in your working area.

How important the function of the oil nozzle is to the oil burner appears clearly from this booklet.

Danfoss assists you in handling these mechanically complicated products which are of vital importance for the function and the output of the oil nozzle.

For further help in your work with oil burner com-ponents Danfoss refers to our Service handbook about burner components and to our homepage burner.danfoss.com
