In jet condensers a very convenientarrangement is that of Figs. 16 and 17,as supplied by the Pulsometer Company,of Reading, with horizontal steam-drivenpump, their vertical type being that ofFig. 20. The horizontal is the typegenerally used for jet condensing; inthe vertical type the air pump is of theordinary Edwards type, but the circu-lating pump is of special ordinary circulating pump is notsuitable for working on cooling towers,except when running very the design shown in Fig. 20 thepump can run comfortably at 150 feetper minute on a cooling tower 40 feethigh, or, under ordinary
