Pumps (Hot Water Heating Circulator)
The Rochester Circulator Company
3092 Culver Road, P. O. Box 23. . Rochester, N. Y.
The Rochester Circulator, for Hot Water Heating Plants, Domestic Hot Water Systems, Ice Water Circulation, or for circulating any liquid in a pipe system under a balanced head
Forced Circulation on every Hot Water Heating System represents the most mod ern method of obtaining efficient heating in all types of buildings. The equipment now,.. made available to the Heating Engineer : and Contractor, through the development of the Rochester Circulator, brings a re markable improvement in existing heating plants, whether they be open systems or equipped with the latest pressure regula tors.
With the Rochester Circulator installed piractically full boiler temperature will be maintained through every part of every radiator and the boiler temperature^ will always be much lower than is possible without the Circulator. It is not necessary to maintain a big temperature differential between the flow and the return lines in order to secure circulation, while the effec tive average temperature at the radiator remains the same as before. This means much lower temperature of the. escaping flue gas, and a corresponding economy in fuel consumption. Room temperatures are maintained practically constant, as the de mand of the thermostat is met instantly in the radiator--there is no long time lag as invariably exists in a system depending on thermal circulation, pressure or otherwise.
Every radiator, regardless of its position relative to the boiler, is maintained at practically full boiler temperature from end to end, and from top to bottom, even though that radiator be served by flow and return pipes dipping below the boiler level, as in a separate building.
On new jobs the cost, including the Rochester Circulator, is less than without
it, for the engineer has complete freedom in running his pipes past obstacles, etc., his calculations are greatly simplified, and usually smaller boilers and less radiation will amply take care of the maximum demand, due to the' increased operating efficiency of the system.
On a sluggish system the Rochester Circulator is almost indispensible. '
The first cost of the Rochester Circula tor is low; its installation is very simple and inexpensive and its operating cost is very small. In fuel saving it will quickly pay for itself and its installation. It never interferes in the slightest degree with natural circulation, as the full area of all the flow or return pipes is maintained throughout. There are no flappers or check valves to corrode and stick.
The Rochester Circulator is made for every different pipe size, from 1J4 to 12 in. All the return lines-, or in some cases, the flow lines, are brought through one tee of equivalent size, installed as an elbow, arid the Rochester Circulator screwed into the extra run opening of that tee, exactly like a pipe plug.

Note.--6, 7 and 8 in. Circulators are shipped mounted in the corresponding Standard bushings; 10 and 12 in. Circula tors are shipped mounted in Companion Flanges.
The nominal capacities, given in the table above repre sent one-half the pitch velocities of the standard marine propellers, and are much lower than the capacities obtained . in actual average installations. .

lUuetTaiion of Skidmore Condeneation Pump
The Skidmore Condensation Pump
The same high-grade construction as in our Vacuum Pumps: bronze fitted throughout, cast iron tank, ball bearings. Due to novelty in design, pump has lower water line control than many others which in many instances makes pitting unnecessary. Motor and float mounted high above danger of being submerged. Centrifugal pump is accessible without disturbing piping. Send for Bulletin No. 7
