33,478 BTUs equal - ANS-One boiler horsepower

A boiler pressure gauge gives readings in - ANS-Gauge pressure

A compound gage is calibrated to read - ANS-Vacuum and pressure

a convection type superheater - ANS-absorbs its heat from the hot gases of combustion

A device used to steady the discharge of a pump. - ANS-Air chamber

A device, which utilizes centrifugal force to remove moisture from steam. - ANS-Dry
pipe

a firetube contains - ANS-the products of combustion

A good over the fire draft in a natural draft furnace should be approximately - ANS-.05
inches of water negative pressure

A hydrostatic test is a test for - ANS-the tightness of boiler drums and tubes

a pigtail is used on a steam gauge connection to - ANS-prevent damage to the gauge

A specially constructed valve used on many receivers in a ammonia compression
system - ANS-King Valve

A super heater - ANS-raises the temperature of steam

A temperature controlled device used in heating systems - ANS-thermostatic trap

A two-stage air compressor contains - ANS-2 Cylinders

A valve generally used as a pressure shut-off valve is a - ANS-Gate valve

Boiler water can be conditioned by - ANS-heating addition of chemicals and by blow
down

Coils located in the boiler breeching utilizing waste heat - ANS-Air preheater

Convert -40Degrees centigrade to fahrenheit - ANS-C = (F-32) / 1.8
-40 = (F - 32) / 1.8
-72 = F - 32
-40 = F

Convert 86 Fahrenheit to centigrade - ANS-C = (F-32) / 1.8
C = (86-32)/1.8
C = 30 Degrees C
