According to the illustrated auxiliary steam and HP bleed system diagram, what steam loads are supplied by the same steam pressure reducing station? Illustration SG-0005
• Identify how pressure reducing stations are shown on the SG-0005 diagram (look for the numbered boxed symbols in the steam lines). • Trace the steam lines from each pressure reducing station to see which loads (labeled components) they supply. • Compare the steam sources for the burner atomizing steam, gland seal regulators, evaporator/air ejectors, and tank cleaning/whistle branches.
• For each answer choice, find both loads on the drawing and ask: do they clearly come off the same reduced‑pressure branch downstream of a single reducing station symbol? • Check whether any of the loads in a choice are supplied directly from main boiler pressure rather than through a reducing valve—those would not share a pressure reducing station. • Look closely at the area around the burner atomizing steam and gland seal regulators: do they connect to a common header that is downstream of one pressure reducing station?
• Verify which numbered box (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8) is the pressure reducing station feeding each load in the answer choices. • Confirm that the two loads you select are fed from the same side of the same reducing station (not just from the same boiler). • Make sure neither of the selected loads is shown as taking steam directly from the main boiler header without passing through a reducing station.
