32 Tonne Linde

Hi all I work in safety and have had an incident I am due to go and investigate. Basically we have had a water gauge crack resulting in boiling water being spraying out of the radiator cap at an operative.

I am being told that it was due to overheating. Does anyone with a technical background have any idea how or what caused this?

Thanks

Fins could be plugged up. as for hot water on opperator. I d say the opperator removed radiator cap and thats what sprayed him.Not saying it couldnt happen , but usually coolant will come out when hot and cap will stay on and coolant just blows down. If his hands got burned, then he removed cap.

Fact of the week
In Germany, the 9th of November is sometimes called Schicksalstag, the "Day of Fate" because it has been the day for several major historical events, including the horrors of Kristallnacht in 1938 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
