There are a few ways to do this. First is manually, using a pump and a throttle (globe) valve, while watching the gage glass. second and most commonly, using a one element, or three element, or plc controled feedwater level control and an automatic (pneumatic, hydraulic or electric) feedwater control valve. Thirdly, with an injector or inspirator manually control the feedwater flow while watching the gage glass; and fourth, using a float control switch cycle the feedwater pump on and off automatically. There may be even more methods of controlling the feedwater flow but these are most common.
