The use of a centrifugal pump in this connection isthe most recent practice of the General Electric Company, whoare the first to adapt this form of pump to this service. Theonly difference in the pump and condenser connections at thispoint is the introduction of a check valve, to prevent breakingthe vacuum when the wet pump is stopped. There is no regu-lating device of any kind to govern the admission of the hot-well water into the feed-water heater, the accumulation and Water to Boiler ItoomBasement Steam from MainSteam Header.
