(225 ILCS 705/7.19) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 719)
Sec. 7.19.
Every boiler shall be provided with a glass water gauge and not
less than three try cocks and also a steam gauge, except that where two or
more boilers are equipped with a steam drum properly connected with the
boilers to indicate the steam pressure and without any valves between the
boilers and the steam drum, the steam gauge may be placed in the steam
drum. A steam gauge shall be attached to the steam pipe in the engine
house, and the steam gauges shall be placed in such a position that the
engineer and the fireman can readily see what pressure is being carried.
The steam gauges shall be kept in good order and adjusted, and be tested as
often as every six months.
