Lesson 14 Boiler mountings, management and maintenance Boiler mountings(附件) Certain fittings(附件) are necessary on a boiler to ensure its safe operation. They are usually referred to as boiler mountings(锅炉附件）. The mountings usually found on a boiler are: Safety valves These are mounted in pairs （in duplex) to protect the boiler against (from) overpressure（超压）. Once the valve lifting pressure(启阀压力） is set in the presence of a Surveyor(验船师) it is locked and cannot be changed. The valve is arranged to open automatically at the pre-set blow off pressure(启阀压力）. Main steam stop valve This valve is fitted in the main steam supply line and is usually of the non-return type（止回型）. Auxiliary steam stop valve This is a smaller valve fitted in the auxiliary steam supply line, and is usually of the non-return type. Feed check or control valve(给水单向阀或控制阀) A pair of valves are fitted: one is the main valve, the other the auxiliary or standby. They are non-return valves and must give an indication（指示） of their open and closed position. Water level gauge Water level gauges or ‘gauge glasses’ are fitted in pairs, at opposite ends of the boiler, the construction of the level gauge depends on the boiler pressure. Air release cock（放气阀） These are fitted in the headers（联箱）, boiler drum（锅筒）, etc., to release air when filling the boiler or initially raising steam（升汽）. Sampling connection A water outlet cock and cooling arrangement is provided for the sampling and analysis of feed water. A provision（装置） may also be made for injecting water treatment chemicals. Blow down valve(下排污阀) This valve enables water to be blow down or emptied（放空） from the boiler. It may be used when partially （部分）or completely emptying the boiler. Scum valve(上排污阀) A shallow dish（浅盘） positioned at the normal water level is connected to the scum valve. This enables the blowing down or removal of scum（浮渣） and impurities（杂质） from the water surface. Whistle（汽笛） stop valve This is a small bore non-return valve which su
