NO PARTS
TO LOOSEN OR WORK OUT
The rotor of tho Terry Wheel Turbine is a single forging of spocial composition slool, In which series of semicircular buckot* It mfllod. Thero aro no separate parts to bocomo loos or work out.
The power-producing action of tho stoem takos place on tho solid curved backs of these buckets or pockets. Therefore dote
clearance is unnocosaory and wear on tho blades forming the poexots Is of little con sequence, es it does not materially effect horsopower or efficiency.
For detailed information about this effec tive construction and Its advantages, write us on your businoss lottorheed for e copy of Terry Turbine Bulletin S-l 16.
