tanks forward are coated with a special bitamastic composition, Briggsoalte F. W. enamel, and every precaution has been taken to prevent pollution and contamination.
While this is the second Union Water Beat to be fitted with Gardean engines, the owners have kept abreas. of times by installing for the hire a 162 RHP. Gardner engine of the new Cold Start Full Diesel Type, which entirely dispenses with such ignition devices as lamps, hot surfaces, or electric plugs. It works at: 820 revolutions a minute which will give the vessel a speed of 7 kaats on service.
The Pumping Plant.
The pamping plant consists of a rotary planger type "Truslove" pump driven through gear and raw bide pinion by a twin cylinder Gardner semi-diesel engine of 10 B.H.P. locat- ed in the engine room. This auxiliary oagine, which works at 600 revolutions a minute, also drives one 32 watt D. C. generator. The pump has a capacity of 120 tons an hour,
The pump has to perform duties ranging from & tons of water per hour at heads of approximately 85 to 40 feet in order to cope with the varying conditions met with in watering ships, And naturally this has received the closest attention of pump and engine makers when putting forward their recommendations.
Electric navigating and other circuits are supplied by one 32 volt
