  In addition to those requirements listed in WAC 296-104-300, the following are also required:

     (1) All boilers that are automatically fired low pressure steam heating boilers, small power boilers, and power steam boilers without a constant attendant who has no other duties shall be equipped with:

     (a) Two high steam pressure limit controls, the highest of which shall be provided with a manual reset.

     (b) Two low-water fuel cutoffs, one of which shall be provided with a manual reset device and independent of the feed water controller.

     (c) Coil type flash steam boilers may use two high-temperature limit controls, one of which shall have a manual reset. This is instead of the low-water fuel cutoff.

     (d) All control and limit devices shall be independently connected and electrically wired in series.

     (2) All automatically fired hot water supply, low-pressure hot water heating boilers, and power hot water boilers shall be equipped with:

     (a) Two high-temperature limit controls, the highest of which shall be provided with a manual reset.

     (b) One low-water fuel cutoff with a manual reset and independent of the feed water controller.

     (c) For coil type hot water boilers a low-water flow limit control installed in the circulating water line may be used instead of a low-water fuel cutoff.

     (d) All control and limit devices shall be independently connected and electrically wired in series.
