🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler automation safety functions and why they cause a trip • Purpose of a fuel oil solenoid valve and flame safeguard system • Regulatory and safety requirements for not defeating safety interlocks

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if an automatic trip keeps happening, what is that telling you about the condition of the burner or the flame? • Which options involve defeating or bypassing a safety device, and how would that be viewed under safety and class rules? • Which choice focuses on finding and correcting the cause of the trip rather than forcing the system to keep running?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which answers involve wedging or bypassing a safety device (never acceptable in normal operation). • Consider what the flame safeguard system is designed to detect and do when a problem occurs. • Verify which action aligns with troubleshooting the cause of repeated trips instead of ignoring or overriding it.
