The
Rubber Surge Protector

in the filler opening of
the tank serves as a check valve to hold back steam
or boiling water when the tank cap is suddenly opened
in an improper manner.
The
Safety Valve

cape from the tank when the pressure is too high (e.g.,
when the hose is kinked).
An additional

in the unit allow
steam to escape into the intermediate space between
the tank wall and outer housing when the pressure is
excessive. The condense water that results can run
out of the housing at the bottom.
