1.4.8 — Vent Valve
Allows the boiler to be vented during filling, and facilitates routine boiler inspection as required by ASME Code.
1.4.9 — Stack Temperature gauge
Indicates flue gas outlet temperature.
1.4.10 — Auxiliary Low-Water Cutoff
Breaks the circuit to stop burner operation in the event boiler water drops below the master low-water cutoff point.
Manual reset type requires manual resetting in order to start the burner after a low-water condition.
1.4.11 — Safety Valve(s)
Prevents buildup over the design pressure of the pressure vessel. The size, rating, and number of valves on a boiler
is determined by the ASME Boiler Code. The safety valve and the discharge piping are to be installed to conform
to the ASME Code requirements. The installation of a valve is of primary importance to its service life. A valve
must be mounted in a vertical position so that discharge piping and code required drains can be properly piped to
