Attempts at partially enclosing a Sharples Super Centrifuge, by using vapor traps and other similar precautions, reduced the escape of vapors from the system but did not entirely elimi- nate this undesirable feature. The complete answer to this objection is the Sharples Presurtite Super Centrifuge. * * * The advantage of removing, by centrifugal treatment, the ash-forming abrasive material and water from Diesel fuel is well understood by Diesel engineers. Compared with the cost in outlay and delay in repairing the engine, the install- ation and operation costs of the Sharples system are insigni- ficant. The economic advantages of using the cheaper bunker fuel for Diesel engines have only just been realized. The Chief Engineer of the “Pacific Shipper’’ is authority for the statement that the saving in fuel cost alone made possible by the Super Centrifuge pays for the Sharples installation in one trip from co to California, and.« _n,additronst6' this : capil Oe cede itis on important advantage “to be able to purchase almost any grade of fuel oil anywhere in the world with full confidence that the Sharples system absolutely protects the Diesel engine. * * * Sharples Engineers have complete and important data on this application of Sharples Super Centrifugal Force which they are glad to send to anyone interested in Diesel Engines.
