Figs. 153 and 154 show a properly designed arrangement ofsteam connections for a battery of boilers. To the nozzles,risers are attached by means of flanges, and from the upper ends of theserisers pipes areled horizontal-ly backwardsinto the maino steam pipe. Inthis horizontalpipe, the stopvalves, one toeach boiler, areplaced. Thesevalves shouldhave flangedends as shown,so that theymay be easilyremoved, if re-pairs becomenecessary,without dis-turbing anyother portionof tlie the en-graving, thevalve C shouldbe arranged inanother posi-t i 0 n : thestem should,of course, brhorizontai v*.
