FILLING THE BOILER - ALL MODELS

Carry out the following procedure on the initial start up of the boiler and on every subsequent
occasion when restarting the boiler after a shut down:
1. Ensure that the main steam stop valve is OPEN.
2. Ensure that the steam pressure gauge isolating valve is OPEN.
3. Select the fuel to be used, ensure that the valves in the selected fuel line(s) are open, and the
alternative fuel lines are closed (see Section 3.4).
4. Ensure that all the valves in the feedwater line are OPEN.
5. Ensure that the main blowdown valve is CLOSED.
6. Ensure that the water level gauge isolating valve(s) is OPEN.
7. Ensure that the water level gauge blowdown valve(s) is CLOSED.
8. Ensure that the column blowdown valve is CLOSED.
9. Ensure that the boiler and pump switch is in the OFF position.
10. Ensure that all appropriate electrical isolators are switched ON.
11. Ensure the pump interrupt switch is switched OFF (PUMP RUN).
The pump must never be allowed to run whilst dry, irreparable damage may result.
Ensure the pump is fully primed before energising the motor.
12. Press the boiler/pump switch to the PUMP ONLY position.
Note: If the boiler water level is below its correct level, the water pump will operate. When the water reaches the
correct level (two thirds up the water level gauge sight glass), the pump will stop. If the water level is above the
top of the water level gauge sight glass, drain off until the level is in the middle of the water level gauge sight glass.
