Most insurance agencies require periodic testing of pressure relief valves used on pressure vessels. This procedure will allow you to safely and quickly test your kettle's pressure relief valve. We recommend this test be performed twice a year.

DANGER: PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE WILL EXHAUST HIGH

TEMPERATURE STEAM. CONTACT WITH SKIN COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS BURNS. KEEP FACE,

HANDS AND BODY CLEAR OF DISCHARGE.

DANGER: WORKING ON MACHINES

WITH POWER COULD RESULT IN

SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

NOTE: The following instruction is intended for use by qualified service personnel.

WARNING: Kettle surface will be hot and steam will be released during testing. Take necessary precautions including the use of gloves and eye protection to prevent personal injury.

NOTES:

If valve appears to be sticking replace pressure relief valve.

If foreign material is discharged then drain kettle and replace pressure relief valve.

See service bulletin (KETTLE JACKET FILLING AND DRAINING PROCEDURES) for full instructions on the correct method for draining and refilling kettle jacket.

WARNING: Improper refilling of kettle jacket will result in irreversible damage to unit.
