REPAIRING LEAKS IN STEAM JACKETED KETTLE FITTINGS
If unit will not hold a vacuum the most likely cause is a leak at one of the fittings.
Often, the easiest way to eliminate a leak is reseal the suspect areas.
1.
Water Level Probe
Remove, clean threads, apply teflon thread sealant and reinstall.
2.
Pressure Relief Valve
A
/ Inspect for signs of leaks. Replace if required.
B
/ Remove, clean threads, apply teflon thread sealant and reinstall.
3.
Pressure Gauge
A
/ Inspect face of gauge. If it contains moisture on the inside of face
replace.
B
/ Inspect compression nut and inspect for tightness. If it looks cracked
or damaged replace.
