mes MARINE NGiINEER LNG always _ aS after voyage, year after year, on the fo’cas’le or below decks, Westinghouse motors and control, powering the auxiliary machinery of many ships in our merchant fleet, are “shipping over” with “good con- duct” records. Driving winches, steering gear, pumps, compressors, and the many auxiliaries necessary to a ship’s operation at sea or in port, these permanent members of the ship’s company are serv- ing faithfully, dependably, and economically. “SHIP OV ee tee rion Electrified Cargo Winches of the new Ward Liner Morro Castle, equipped with Westing- house 25 and 35-hp. Waterproof Motors and Waterproof Cam Type Control. Westinghouse Back of these Westinghouse motors that are finding ever- increasing favor with marine men for auxiliary machinery drive, are years of study and research. For a score of years Westinghouse marine engineers have worked closely with those of the marine industry in seek- ing higher standards of performance and economy in the application of auxiliary power on board ship. Among outstanding contributions by Westing- house in this field is the high-speed motor with control for cargo winches, which has eliminated the slow speed of light hook lowering. Compared with electrified winches previously installed, this new equipment speeds up about 15 per cent the handling of package freight and makes it possible to move heavy loads as fast as they can be stowed in the hold. Illustrated on these pages are views of typical Westinghouse auxiliary electric motor drives above decks and below. Waterproof Motors for deck machinery are the most rugged type built—especially designed for hard usage in port and heavy weather at sea. They are noted for their reliability, quick starting and stopping, water-tightness, low maintenance and long service.
