Overheated Boiler Policy - Emergency Response and Lessons Learned(PPT)

摘要

An "Overheated Boiler" condition is created when a heating unit reaches an exceedingly high temperature and pressure, and will not shut off. This condition, also commonly referred to as a "Runaway Boiler", is considered unsafe and very hazardous to both emergency responders and building occupants. This condition is primarily caused by coincidental failures of redundant safety controls that maintain safe temperature, pressure, gas supply, and water supply.
