CAUTION
It is vitally important that the instructions given in this manual are strictly adhered to.
Failure to carry out the daily, weekly, monthly and six monthly checks could result in a drastic
reduction in the life expectancy of the boiler.
!
Inspect the steam and feedwater pipework, valves, fittings and elements for signs of leakage.
If leaks are suspected, shut down and evacuate the system to atmospheric pressure before
attempting any repairs.
Note: Ensure that the water level is maintained during the pressure build-up. If any part of the equipment is not
operating correctly, the fault should be investigated before the boiler is used. Ensure that all blowdown pipework
is safe and discharged to a blowdown receptacle.
SECTION 4 - MAINTENANCE
Tests should be carried out by a competent person trained to perform such tests. If any test shows that the
equipment is not operating correctly, the fault should be investigated and corrected before the boiler is used.
Any rectification or repairs should be carried out by trained, competent service personnel.
CAUTION
The electrical supply to the boiler must be isolated
prior to the opening of the access panels.
