The valve is double and controls the ad-mission and exhaust of steam in both high and low-pressurecylinders—being of the internal admission type for the high-pressure cylinder and external admission for the low-pressurecylinder. Its construction is very strong and extremely Valve.—Figs. 3 and 4 show sections through thesteam chest and intercepting valve chamber, K, Fig. 1, and onlines C, H, K, also sections of the intercepting valve I. InKg. 8 the position of the intercepting valve I is normal; thatis, when the engine is working compound. In Fig. 4 the po-sition of the intercepting valve, as shown, is when operatingall four cylinders in simple expansion—on live steam fromthe boiler. This intercepting valve is simply a three-way plugand can be made in either one or two sections, as shown inFig. 5. It serves the purpose, as will be explained further, todirect the high-pressure exhaust steam either to the low-press-ure cylinder, when operating
