HENSZEY CONTINUOUS BLOWDOWN
SAVE EQUIPMENT---The Hensiey Blowdown System prevents priming, looming and carryover . . . ond also prevents the'formation of scale by simple chemicol treatment of the feed water. Boilers last longer and tube burns arc kept at a minimum. The rosultont dean steam makes packings last longer'-- reduces wear on rods ond cylinders --reduces turbine blade erosion -- prevents sticking of reducing valves, traps, etc. -- prevents superheater burnouts. SAVE MANPOWER -- The Hensiey System is completely oulomalic. Boiler shut-downs ond repairs ore reduced to a minimum. No man hours lost unnecessarily replacing packings, repairing or replacing rods and cylinder rings, turbine nonles, turbine blades, valves and other equipment along the line. SAVE FVJEl -- The Hensiey System offers complete, automatic blow down without heat loss -- a big fuel saving in itself. Then, too, boil ers free from scolc and sludge arc more efficient -- they require less fuel to produce the power load.
Flowmeters should be installed $
steam lines to turbines and all ('U
malic extraction lines. It U
necessary nor desirable to havefcM meters in lines to feedwater be3j
It is not enough to measure steam from each boiler or the Qovfi
the main steam header. There m '< be enough instruments to measure^
record steam consumption of each
bine so that a decrease in efficiency 1 in capacity can immediately be^
tected.
j
Tower-plant designers and mioaf^
turers of turbines and other power-pl^J equipment hare brought efficiencies^ to a level where It it difficult tnd cotS to gain another percent. Much jaaj
can be gained in most plants by$ ing maintenance the attention it serves and by setting up repair ules based on sound principles of ec^ omy.

Wherever it's "SAFETY FIRST"
DEPEND on Youngstown's Buckeye Conduit for safety In electrical wiring. It is a standard-threaded, full-weight rigid sloe) conduit of uniform, high quality. It provides the surest known protection against moisture, vapor, dust crushing, vi bration, and tampering by unauthorized persons.
Remember that this type of conduit is the only wiring sys tem approved for hazardous locations by the National Electri cal Coae. So for Safety First, look for the underwriter's label bearing the name Youngstown on every length of conduit
"Buckeye" Is sold by leading electrical distributors in every industrial market.
