Disclosed is an oil burning system that is capable of burning oils of varying viscosities, including high viscosity waste oils and low viscosity heating oils. Suitable as a new installation or a retrofit modification, the present invention incorporates the use of a variable rate, high-pressure oil delivery system, along with an oil pre-heater, in conjunction with a modified high-pressure atomizing nozzle. Installed in a sliding drawer burner arrangement that allows for quick and easy access, the oil burning system also includes a means by which particulate matter and carbonization build-ups are removed from the burner nozzle automatically, thereby eliminating the need for frequent cleaning.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An oil burner system that allows for the burning of oils of varying viscosity, said oil burner system comprising:a fuel pre-heater, having an internal sidewall de-scaling means, in fluid communication with a fuel source;a three-way fuel-diverting means having a diverter inlet, a blowdown diverter outlet and a burner diverter outlet, said three-way fuel-diverting means capable of being selectably actuated between a blowdown position and a burner position, said diverter inlet in fluid communication with said fuel pre-heater;a blowdown tank, said blowdown tank comprising a liquid storage vessel in fluid communication with said blowdown diverter outlet; anda burner assembly, in fluid communication with said burner diverter outlet and a pressurized air supply and having a high-pressure fuel burner nozzle with back-washing capabilities;wherein said oil burner system reduces maintenance by trapping particulate matter within said high-pressure fuel burner nozzle and back-washing said particulate matter into said blowdown tank rather than requiring routine disassembly for cleaning purposes.
