UTICA BOILERS BC3095 Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual page 12

Burn or Scald Hazard. Discharge line shall be installed to relief valve outlet connection to avoid burns,
scalding, or water damage due to discharge of steam and/or hot water during operation.
Discharge line shall:
• Use ¾" or larger pipe.
• Use pipe suitable for temperatures of 375°F (191°C) or greater.
• Individual boiler discharge piping shall be independent of other discharge piping.
• Size and arrange discharge piping to avoid reducing safety relief valve relieving capacity below
minimum relief valve capacity stated on rating plate.
• Run pipe as short and straight as possible to location protecting user from scalding and properly drain
piping.
• Install union, if used, close to safety relief valve outlet.
• Install elbow(s), if used, close to safety relief valve outlet and downstream of union (if used).
• Terminate pipe with plain end (not threaded).
Refer to local codes and appropriate ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code for additional installation
