Boiler Explosion

Bruce:

   I would like a cab ride in 611.  300 psi, not much when you spent   
8 years around a steam generator with 2000 psi superheated steam.   
When I was at the Atomic plant
durning heating season and the heating boilers were on when I came on  
watch first place to go was boiler house to blow down the gauge  
glass.  Small boilers, only 200 psi.
   No matter what the pressure you can not be scared of it BUT you  
must respect it.
