Bunkerbarge:
I'm trying to put together a boiler details database to enable us to complete steam tests on manufactured boilers.  To help all those who no longer have the original manufacturers  certification I would really appreciate it if anyone who owns a manufactured boiler and does posses the original manufacturers certificate if they could let me have the stated working pressure for it and possibly capacity if included.  All I need is something along the lines of:

Hemmens Richmond boiler, Working Pressure-5.6 bar, capacity-500ml.

If the capacity isn't stated, which is usually the case, and you are able to fill the boiler with water and pour it out into a measuring jug I would be very grateful.

To keep the thread clear it may be better to PM me the figures.

Many thanks

BB

Not trying to argue the point BB but I really think you should give some creedance to the safety valve issue, as reading on another forum of someone "Tweaking" a standard Mamod unit.

Ian, I can't even remember what the original issue was now.  Could you please either PM me or start a new thread on the subject to keep this thread for database information.

Thanks

Richard
