Fulton Electric (FB-L) Steam Boiler - Manual (Page 9)

CAUTION
Do not tamper with the safety features of the low water safety
cut out.
CAUTION
Keep boiler area clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
CAUTION
Do not use harsh compounds that will injure the feed water
pump or elements.
CAUTION
Do not clean the gauge or gauge glass while pressurized or in
operation.
CAUTION
Prior to performing the “try lever” test, be certain to take
precautions as a loud noise and high velocity steam will
discharge freely from discharge port and through drain hole
provided in the side of the valve body.
NOTE
Where a condensate return tank is to be fitted, this should:
a) Be vented and
b) Have a capacity sufficient to satisfy boiler consumption
(normally 10 minutes worth of storage minumum) as well
as maintain proper return tank temperature and
c) Vent pipe should not be down-sized (This may cause
pressure build up in the condensate tank.)
NOTE
Care should be taken to ensure that the blow off receptacle
used meets the regulations covering such items. If in doubt,
consult a Fulton Representative for advice.
NOTE
Only properly trained personnel should install and maintain
water gauge glass and connections. Wear safety glasses
during installation. Before installing, make sure all parts of free
of chips and debris.
NOTE
Keep gauge glass in original packaging until ready to install.
NOTE
After Installation is complete and prior to operation, the
pressure vessel should be cleaned.
NOTE
Check with local authorities where approval for start-up is
required. In some localities, final inspection of services may
be required.
NOTE
To ensure that your Fulton Steam Boiler is kept operating
safely and efficiently follow the maintenance procedures set
forth in this manual.
