CPC Subclass Not Allocatable
F23L SUPPLYING AIR OR NON-COMBUSTIBLE LIQUIDS OR GASES TO COMBUSTION APPARATUS IN GENERAL ( firebridges with means for feeding air or steam F23M3/04; baffles or shields with air supply passages F23M9/04); VALVES OR DAMPERS SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR CONTROLLING AIR SUPPLY OR DRAUGHT IN COMBUSTION APPARATUS ; INDUCING DRAUGHT IN COMBUSTION APPARATUS; TOPS FOR CHIMNEYS OR VENTILATING SHAFTS; TERMINALS FOR FLUES
Description
F23L encompasses equipment and systems for managing air supply and draught in combustion apparatus, including specialized valves, dampers, and draught-inducing devices. It covers delivery mechanisms for air and non-combustible fluids to furnaces, boilers, and similar combustion systems, as well as physical components like chimney tops and flue terminals that regulate gas flow and prevent downdrafts. This classification excludes fuel supply systems (covered elsewhere in F23) and focuses specifically on the oxidant/air side of combustion control and ventilation management.
