English translation:ignition oil
Explanation:
"To provide sufficient combustion temperature in the furnace before spraying powdered coal to catch fire or ignite, the furnace temperature is brought up by spraying and burning light oil by means of igniter oil guns. Oil is used in a fine spray, as oil can catch fire even in ambient temperature. Alternatively gas is also used for ignition instead of oil, if available in plenty. However in this case the igniter gun design differs. To ignite the ignition oil or gas, an Electric High Tension spark in the path of oil or gas is used momentarily and then the spark gun is withdrawn."
