RELIEF VALVE valve. Temperature controls. Replace if
above 90 C failure necessary
of thermal control
DISCHARGE FROM 1) Continually. Check pressure from valve.
EXPANSION Pressure reducing Replace if over 3.5 bar
VALVE valve faulty
2) When heater is heating. Check charge of vessel. Re-
Faulty expansion charge vessel to 3.5 bar or
vessel or lost charge replace if necessary
