It is often the case that a steam boiler is allowed to operate if the pressure does not rise above 4 bars.

While the steam engine may not require Certification, boilers do, depending on the rules in a given Jurisdiction. While it is certainly possible to operate a steam boiler "in a back woods location that the Boiler Inspector doesn't know about", The Boiler Inspector will find out if there is an accident where someone is seriously injured or killed. Steam can kill. If anyone is considering a "Steam Application" they should check with their Boiler Inspector, to confirm that he would be able to approve the Proposed Project. Best wishes, Kevin
