FUELS
Our wide range of Rayburn cookers offers a model suitable for use with most of the common fuel types.
The following list clarifies which fuels are suitable for each of the models.
200K, 208K, 300K, 308K, 368K Oil:
Class C2, commercial grade Kerosene, to B.S.2869 and as suitable for vaporising burners.
XT, 400K, 410K, 440K, 460K, 480K, 499K, 880K, 8120K & 8150K Oil:
Class C2, commercial grade Kerosene, to B.S.2869
200SFW & 212SFW Solid Fuel:
Manufactured smokeless fuels such as - Phurnacite Plus, Coalite Nuts, Maxibrite, Phurnacite, Sunbrite Doubles, Extracite, Blazebrite, Taybrite, Supacite.
Natural smokeless fuels such as - Anthracite Large Nuts, Welsh Dry steam Coal large nuts.
Seasoned wood may be burnt using the special flat grate supplied with the SFW models.
Petroleum coke must not be used.
Solid fuel suitability will vary from installation to installation, dependent on such local factors as chimney draught etc. Cookers connected to a chimney with a high flue draught will probably give the best performance burning the smaller sizes of fuel, such as Sunbrite, particularly for prolonged slumbering requirements.
We would recommend that a small sample bag of an intended fuel be first tried to determine suitability, before ordering a larger supply.
Your coal merchant should be able to offer further advice.

300W, 345W
Suitable for dry seasoned logs only.
Solid fuel suitability will vary from installation to installation, dependent on such local factors as chimney draught etc. Cookers connected to a chimney with a high flue draught will probably give the best performance burning the smaller sizes of fuel, such as Sunbrite, particularly for prolonged slumbering requirements.
Coal or wood with its longer flame will give a quicker reaction time from idling to heat the hotplate and ovens, whilst the smokeless fuels will burn longer and probably release more heat into the boiler.
Mixing wood and coal together is not recommended.
We would recommend that a small sample bag of an intended fuel be first tried to determine suitability, before ordering a larger supply, whilst your coal merchant should be able to offer further advice.
