4. Installation Instructions
Warning: Installation of oil burner components should ideally be performed by a qualified technician. Improper installation can lead to oil leaks, equipment damage, or fire hazards. Always disconnect power to the oil burner before beginning any work.
Tools Required:
- Screwdriver set
- Wrench set
- Pliers
- Clean rags
- Oil pan or absorbent material
Step-by-Step Installation:
- Safety First: Turn off the power supply to the oil burner at the main circuit breaker.
- Access the Pump: Locate the oil burner pump. Depending on your burner model, you may need to remove covers or other components to access the pump.
- Drain Oil: Place an oil pan or absorbent material beneath the pump to catch any residual oil.
- Remove Old Seal: Carefully remove the old lip seal from the pump shaft. This may require a small pick or screwdriver to pry it out. Be careful not to scratch the shaft or pump housing.
- Clean Area: Thoroughly clean the shaft and the seal housing area to remove any oil residue or debris.
- Install New Seal: Gently press the new Irnyso lip seal onto the pump shaft and into its housing. Ensure it is seated squarely and fully. Do not force it, as this can damage the seal. A small amount of clean oil on the seal's inner lip can aid installation.
- Reassemble: Reattach any components or covers that were removed to access the pump.
- Restore Power & Test: Restore power to the oil burner. Start the burner and carefully check for any oil leaks around the newly installed seal. Monitor for a few minutes to ensure proper operation.

5. Operation
Once the lip seal is correctly installed, its function is passive, ensuring the integrity of the oil burner pump. Proper operation is indicated by the absence of oil leaks from the pump shaft area. If any leaks are observed after installation, immediately shut down the burner and re-inspect the seal installation.
- Initial Check: After installation, run the burner for a short period and visually inspect the seal area for any signs of oil leakage.
- Normal Function: A properly installed lip seal will maintain a tight seal around the pump shaft, preventing oil from escaping and ensuring consistent pump pressure.
6. Maintenance
The lip seal itself requires minimal maintenance beyond proper installation. However, periodic inspection of the oil burner pump and its components is recommended as part of your heating system's overall maintenance schedule.
- Annual Inspection: During your annual oil burner service, ask your technician to inspect the pump shaft seal for any signs of wear, cracking, or leakage.
- Cleanliness: Keep the area around the oil burner pump clean and free of dust or debris, which can sometimes contribute to seal degradation over time.
- Early Detection: Address any minor oil seepage immediately to prevent larger issues and potential damage to the pump or burner.
