Forgot to mention,

Controlling the steam pressure (boiler power) is much like regulating a gas burner, very precise. This is a Pressure Reduction Valve (PRV) and drops the Generators pressure from 700 psi to 200 psi which is the rating of our steam jackets.

We can heat all 3, if required, at the same time or only one. Each boiler has an isolation valve which besides providing an on/off also provides another pressure control point.

PRV (left gauge is pressure in, right is pressure out)

Do you buy vinegar in 2l bottles from woolies to do a vinegar run? :laughing-rolling: do they do a deal on orders of a full pallet?
Whoops! Didn't realise I was reading the second last page :?

Think a water flow meter is a good idea but a ebay search gets nill results for rotometer........
Utube came up with a few and than i found the spelling mistake.............

Rotameter so not O but an A gets 30 items
