Thank you guys so very very much to start with. It shows my wifes name Cassie, but my name is Bruce. I`m an ex navy BT, was on the USS Kittyhawk. Made topwatch n 2 main machinery room. Worked as operator for 12 years after getting out. Switched to pipefitting welding. Been teaching a steam theory class in an apprenticeship program so fitters can work arounf live steam n condensate systems without injuring themselves or others. I use so many of your videos for visual and verbal instruction. You guys are helping safely train a lot of young men and women in the pipe trades. Bravo Zulu to this program you guys do!
One of the basic concepts I start with is the 4 sides of the basic steam cycle (saturated) I teach installers, not operators. Generation, in the boiler. Expansion, discharge from the boiler to tge inlet of the steam trap. Condensate, discharge side of the steam trap to the top half of the DA tank. Feed water, bottom half DA tank to the inlet of the boiler. I tell them to pretend you’re a drop of water that goes all through the cycle, and back to the starting point (in the boiler). My focus as well as teaching pipefitting with all the components involved, is understanding what to expect at every point of the steam cycle. Famous “hold my beer statements like “oh don’t worry it’s only condensate.” Thank you thank you thank you. Bless your videos!!
Here is one that focuses on how to check the spray nozzle. We will look into creating a video about different types of nozzles. Thanks for the suggestion! th-cam.com/video/q_Jn5xPwQ_8/w-d-xo.html
in my text book and on most videos they always mention 2 non-condensable ( oxygen and carbon dioxide) but on my class 1 verbal exam they wanted 4. 1 oxygen = corrosion and pitting 2 carbon dioxide = acidity in the condensation 3 ammonia = attacks non-ferrous metals 4 ???? do anyone know the last
My guess is that you have to check the line that takes the water from the tank to the pumps, and make sure it is not clogged. Also, make sure that the DA tank is never completely drained.

Thank you so much for the kind words and thank you for watching our channel.
Great information wareboilers!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks ‼️
Excellent video, appreciate it 💪🏼👍🏻👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Hey guys great information! When the soft water is being stayed, what’s it pressure source, just line pressure or the pumps?
Most DA's only run at ~ 5 to 8 psig. City water make up is typically ~ 50 to 70 psig so you usually never need a pump.
Great video wareboilers! Do you have any video explaining the different types of spray nossels on DAs?

Awesome thanks
15-17 PSI around 254 degree and feed the water to the boiler at 300 PSI
❤ Awesome Explain. THANK U
Glad it was helpful!
Great Video
Glad you enjoyed it
Do you have any information on the sizing of the exhaust line that expels the non condensables/traces condensate/steam?
in my text book and on most videos they always mention 2 non-condensable ( oxygen and carbon dioxide) but on my class 1 verbal exam they wanted 4.
1 oxygen = corrosion and pitting
2 carbon dioxide = acidity in the condensation
3 ammonia = attacks non-ferrous metals
4 ???? do anyone know the last
How do you prevent or fix a cavitation issues? Thanks.
My guess is that you have to check the line that takes the water from the tank to the pumps, and make sure it is not clogged. Also, make sure that the DA tank is never completely drained.
What about a boiler that heats with water for heating?
👌👌👌👌👌👌
Do you reccomend in your control scheme even run times on redundant pump systems for best seal and moving parts life?
