OPERATION OF THE BOILER
Turn on water and power supply.
Open cabinet door and turn main power switch ON. Pilot light ignites and water begins to fill
boiler - observe water gauge sight glass to verify that proper water level is reached.
Once the proper water level is reached, the heaters begin to heat the water. Heaters require
about 15 minutes to begin steam generation. The boiler pressure gauge in the cabinet should
indicate steam pressure in a range of 9 to 11 psig.
Part No. 10044R5
-
ON fills the boiler tank and turns the boiler heaters on. You should
allow 20 minutes to fill the tank and generate steam.
-
OFF shuts off the boiler heaters and opens the Automatic
Blowdown Valve, emptying the boiler tank and releasing water and
steam to the drain. This should be done daily to remove sediment,
lime, or scale.
-
Indicates main power is ON.
Should read 9 - 11 psig during operation; 0 psig during shutdown.
Observe level of water and water quality in the boiler. Murkiness in
the water indicates inadequate water quality; the owner must supply
proper water to the boiler (see page 4).
While boiler is ON, briefly open the water level control valve once a
day to remove any sediment that might accumulate. (See page 12
for detailed instructions.)
This valve will release (pop off) if the boiler has too much pressure.
Once a week, this valve should be tripped during operation to make
sure it functions properly.
