The Greatest Advance in Valve Construction of the Times. Pit Head Frame. k Erected in Works for inspection. Example of 10 in. x 6 in. * 42 lb. R.S. Joists curved for Framework to Roadway. PRINCIPLE : Converting the pressure of the fluid into velocity and re- converting the velocity into pressure, thereby passing an amount of steam equal to full carrying capacity of pipe. SELLING POINTS: Passes same quantity of steam as a full- bore valve. Seats half diameter of ordinary sluice valve, therefore halves possible leakage. Graded opening—no sudden rush of steam in opening. Is not subject to wedging action or mechanical strain. When the valve is open the seats are pro- tected from the flowing fluid by the eyepiece. Always easy to open and close under pressure. Discs and Seats of HOPKINSON’S “ PLATNAM ” METAL. Suitable with Superheated Steam. ROLLED STEEL JOISTS for PIT PROPS; FRAMEWORK TO ROADWAYS. &c.
