What will you do if no water shown in the boiler water gauges?

  • Check the water gauges; if it blows steam, this is a very dangerous emergency.
  • First, the fire should be immediately extinguished and the boiler should be isolated from the steam supply system.
  • Switch off the feed pumps. Turn off the feed water valve and fuel supply valve.Wait for the slow cool down.
  • Check to see if there is any damage to furnace, internal structure and other p arts of the boiler.
  • Check the tripping of fuel supply valve as it should cut the supply of fuel oil when water level reaches low low level
  • After the problem is fixed, boiler could be put back to service.
