Briefly, these "features'* offer the following advantages: Reduction in size of boiler opening required to mount valve, due to larger capacity from smolier valve sizes -- and thus reduced cost of discharge piping. Reduction in boiler head-room. Reduction in shipping charges (less weight). Easier and more positive operations. Easy replacement or re-conditioning of working parts (low maintenance).
