| HOW
TO SPECIFY AND ORDER THE CLARK-RELIANCE CAST IRON WATER COLUMNS
TO MEET YOUR INDIVIDUAL APPLICATION |
Clark-Reliance
manufactures a small, cast iron, float type water column and
a larger size cast iron water column that can be either float
type or probe type (Universal Column W0250). Information contained
in these pages describes the design and performance of each
column.
To select the proper water column model, first acquaint yourself
with the types of columns available, including a review of
the Model Selection Guide presented below, and then complete
the following recommended steps:
- Determine the gage glass visibility required.
- Determine the steam and water center dimension.
- Determine the alarm variation requirements.
- List the alarm/control functions desired.
Completion of these steps will direct you toward the proper
model. If selection assistance is required, contact your
local Clark-Reliance representative or the Clark Reliance
Technical Services Department direct.
Installation Notes For recommended installation procedures,
refer to Catalog 500, Section AB2.4. Also be advised that
for all water column models the lowest visible part of water
gage glass must be at least 2 inches above the lowest permissible
boiler water level.
Material Note The cast iron used in Clark Reliance Column
1 and W0250 water columns is ASTM A278-CL30. |

Column
W0250 provides water gage centers that can vary upon specification
from 13½" to 23". Top or side steam and water connections
can vary upon specification from 11½" to 22".
Conversion Columns All Clark-Reliance cast iron, float type
columns serving pressures to 250 PSI can be converted
to accommodate a probe cap. This conversion brings fuel cut-out
controls, as well as high/low alarms, to converted columns.
