🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler gauge glass operation and how it indicates drum water level • Effect of a ship rolling in heavy seas on actual water level in a steam drum • Common faults/abnormal indications in boiler water level instruments

💭 Think About

• If the ship is rolling, what is the water in the steam drum actually doing, and how should a healthy gauge glass respond? • Which option describes a condition that would make the gauge glass reading less responsive to real level changes? • Which choices describe conditions that might be normal versus those that indicate a problem?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare what a properly working gauge glass should show during heavy rolling versus calm conditions • Think about what an obstruction in the connections/valves between drum and glass would do to the movement of water in the glass • Consider whether a truly steady level in rough conditions is more likely to be normal behavior or a sign something is wrong
