JMC - Glass Tie Rod Style Lubricator
« on: July 18, 2006, 10:24:39 AM »
Hi PD's - I note on the JMC WEB site attached to our PD's, that the manufacturer has added a true triple expansion 8x12x17 diameter by 12 stroke vertical engine which runs at the needed higher pressure of 8 Bar  :roll:

However of equal interest is glass tubed tie rod style lubricatior where we can clearly see the three distinct layers of fluid .... oil on top .. followed by a sandwich of water/oil in immulsion.. then to clear water with just a mist of oil suspended on the ID of the glass  :idea:

So from this I can only conclude the engine has been run & commissioned  8) - Derek
