ERIE CITY HORIZONTAL LONG DRUM BOILER:
It consists of two box headers connected by 4-in. seamless steel tubes which are staggered and set at a fixed angle to assist circulation. These headers"Sr waterlegs are riveted to a horizontal long drum wmcn
sible to drive all rivets hydraulically, thus assuring-a tighter and stronger joint than is possible by any other method (see illustration below).
This construction has eliminated one calking edge. The single row.of rivets in the header is out of the fire. The method of suspending the front header from the extended handhole sheet further eliminates possi bility of leakage--all rivets in the hanger are out of the fire and water steam spaces. Sizes: Built in drum sizes of 42, 48 and 54 in. in a wide range of sizes to meet low headroom conditions. Write for Bulletin SB-13.
is fitted with deflector plate and removable sediment collecting pan.
Characteristics of boiler are:
(1) Larger water and steam capacity per horse power than almost any water tube boiler.
(2) Steady steamer, therefore easy to fire.
(3) Straight tube.
(4) Adaptable to any firing method.
(5) Easy to clean and repair.

ERIE CITY WELDED HEATING BOILER:
This is an electric-welded boiler built in three types: (1) Smokeless for coal--with refractory covered curtain and bridge wall.
(2) Up-draft--without refractory curtain. (3) Oil, gas, or stoker fired--especially designed to meet the requirements of these firing methods. Large furnace volume is provided. Each of these types is built in a wide range of sizes. They are shipped complete ready for installation. Characteristics: Characteristics of the Erie City Steel Heating Boiler are: Large grate area and firebox.
Correctly proportioned gas passages. Low draft loss.
The ratio of heating surface to grate area is above the average for boilers of this type.
The ratio of radiant heating surface to convection heating surface is also well above the average in this boiler. Send for Bulletin SB-12.

Pulverized Coal Equipment (65)
ERIE CITY IRON WORKS
ERIE, PA.
PULVERIZED COAL EQUIPMENT:
For Horizontal Return Tubular Boilers of 100 to
300 Hp.: The Vortex Furnace was designed to make possible
the application of pulverized coal to the small boiler plant with its usual demand for a wide range of rating. It consists of a cylindrical, refractory lined, air-cooled furnace extension (see drawing) in which the primary ignition takes place, presenting an incandescent surface to the incoming fuel stream. Easy lighting and rapid arrival at normal combustion conditions are assured.

are encased in refractory material, their life being thus greatly increased and an incandescent surface being presented to the fuel stream.
It is particularly notable for wide fluctuations in rating, 'implicity of construction, long life and low upkeep.
SEYMOUR "CARBOFRAX" FURNACE:
A special application of the Seymour design is its use with "Carbofrax" (registered trade-mark of the Carborundum Company for the silicon carbide re fractory manufactured by them) refractory surface. This combination has proved outstandingly successful. Full details on request.
With Water Tube Boilers--Moderate Ratings: Erie City Pulverized Coal Equipment has been widely used with water tube boilers operating at mod erate ratings. Solid or air-cooled furnaces are giving excellent service under these loads. We recently made an investigation of our pulver ized coal installations to determine the furnace main tenance cost of solid wall construction and found this item to be negligible even with-plants operating five years. Typical of present-day practice is the installation shown below, which is one of several, made for a large food manufacturer. It consists of a 407 hp. Erie City
The Erie City Unitype Pulverizer is of the impact type. It successfully handles lignites, sub-bituminous, high and low ash bituminous, oil still coke and coal machine cuttings.
Furnished for motor, turbine, rope, belt or chain drive.
Being entirely self-contained, no auxiliary fans, separators, collectors or dryers are required. Feed mechanism designed to insure easily controllable, con tinuous flow of coal and responds quickly to changes in boiler or furnace requirements.
Stock machines are carried in capacities up to 7500 lb. per hour and are in successful operation with boilers ranging from 100 to 1400 hp.
3-Drum Boiler and Erie City Size "C" Unitype Pulver izer. The unit is designed to operate up to 250% rat ing. Solid walls are used. Preheated air is bled from the furnace and passed through the Unitype to dry coal of high moisture content as it is fed into the pulverizer chamber.
SEYMOUR FURNACE:
Erie City Seymour water-cooled, refractory lined furnace is adapted to stoker fired furnace wills and especially to boiler furnaces for pulverized coal firing. The cooling tubes, connected to the boiler circulation,
