This document outlines an annex for conducting internal and external examinations of boilers. It lists over 250 items to inspect, including examining the logbook, fittings, valves, water and fuel systems, securing arrangements, remote safety devices, the interior including combustion chambers and refractories, tubes, casing, walls, and accessories. Additional items are listed for oil fired boilers, including pumps, fuel lines, burners, and economizers. Additional items for thermal oil heaters include analyzing the thermal fluid, safety devices, flow meters, low level indicators, and regulation/safety systems. Internal examinations and thickness measurements are to be conducted every five years.
