Normal Boiler Operating Cycle
Water Fill Cycle
On the initial filling of the boiler, the reset switch must be activated to initialize the safety
lockout circuit. Once the water in the boiler has reached the proper level, the level
control will open the circuit to the fill solenoid valve, stopping the flow of water to the
boiler. As the water is consumed in the production of steam, the level control will close
the circuit to the fill solenoid and water will be supplied to the boiler.
