Functional Performance Test Checklist - Steam Boiler

For Boiler:

[_____]

1. Functional Performance Test: Contractor shall demonstrate operation of

steam heating system as per specifications including the following: Start

building heating equipment to provide load for boiler. Activate controls

system boiler start sequence as follows.

a. Start steam heating system. Verify control system energizes boiler

start sequence.

___________________________________________________________

b. Verify boiler senses steam pressure below set point and control

system activates boiler start.

____________________________________________

c. Shut off building heating equipment to remove load on steam heating

system. Verify boiler shutdown sequence is initiated and accomplished after

load is removed.

__________________________________________________________

d. Verify that water level and makeup water system are operational.

_____________________________________________________________________________

2. Verify boiler inlet/outlet pressure reading, compare to boiler design

conditions and manufacturer's performance data.
