Common failures & inspection points

Water level inadequacy or loss of water level indication

Verify water level gauge is clean and transparent; test low-water cutoff device to ensure prompt boiler shutdown when water falls below safety line

Combustion inefficiency and excessive fuel consumption

Inspect burner flame color and stability (should be steady and golden/blue); verify air-fuel mixture ratio; perform combustion analysis for CO₂, O₂, smoke number, and stack temperature

Internal corrosion, scale deposits, and tube blockage reducing heat transfer

Inspect waterside for scale, rust, carbon deposits, and corrosion; check fire-tube interior for soot, pitting, and thinning; perform water treatment analysis to prevent oxygen corrosion

Safety valve malfunction or pressure relief failure

Verify safety valve lifts at 3% above working pressure; manually test with easing gear; ensure minimum two safety valves installed per SOLAS requirements

Furnace refractory damage and uncontrolled combustion

Inspect refractory lining minimum twice yearly for cracks, missing sections, excessive soot deposits, and brick displacement; clean combustion chamber and check for air-tightness
