B DIVISIO Who we are and what we do. What we do: Boiler Technicians - BT's op- erate, maintain, and repair the ship's main propulsion boilers. These boilers generate super heated steam to turn the twin propel- lers and to operate our engineering auxilia- ry machinery, such as: main feed pumps, fire pumps, steam reducing stations, forced draft blowers. emergency feed X transfer pumps, and per day distilling plant. BT's also maintain and operate this vast array of auxiliary machinery, as well as all manner for heating. cooking, laundry, and maintain the evaporator distilling plant which makes -10.000 gallons of pure water per day for use as boiler feed water, and potable tdrinkingl water. We chemically test and treat every drop of water coming from aboard this ves- sel to determine its suitability for use ti.e.. fresh or feedl. We chemically test and treat water inside the boiler to prevent the trc- mendous pressures, temperatures. and im- purities from damaging the boiler tubes. BTs assure the quality ofall our fuel oil and lubricating oil. and maintain a current. up- as! -,iv of piping and valves. We make the steam to-the-minute inventory of it's liquid load. H We calibrate pressure, vacuum, and tem, pi Q peraturc gauges and sensing devices, dc. A troit switches, and the sensitive automatic? t combustion control system C0mp0nen15ig. We operate and maintain the steam-driv iii fire-flushing pump which provides Gi-'mgf fighting water, cooling water, salt wa Q washdown, and flushing water for toilil' and urinals. So next time you flick a switch electric light comes on, or eat a meal thagfff. 3 steaming hot . . . remember the Boiiefifl f ' Technicians who made it that way!
