Indicator for steam engines consists of a tubular body to which a rotating sleeve is attached to an arm. A string, which is rolled down around the sleeve, can be attached to a moving machine component with an end, so that the sleeve is running at every stroke and then back into its original position through the rolled spring in the sleeve. A paper is attached to the sleeve. In the body, a piston rod is applied under a spring, which is moved up and down by steam or vacuum.

A paper is attached to the sleeve. In the body, a piston rod is applied under a spring, which is moved up and down by steam or vacuum. With the tap on the underside, the body is screwed onto the cylinder, so that the piston of the indicator is equal to the piston of the steam engine and proportionally with the steam and vacuum pressure moves down.
