A pyrometer is placed in the heater dischargepipe, the wires of which pass through the conduit J to agage in the cab. A connection is made in the delivery pipeT and piped through / back to the cab to a gage which in-dicates the pressure of the feed water in the delivery connection is made in the delivery pipe for sprink-ling the coal in the tender, the water passing up pipe 6 backto a tap in the cab. The heater itself is shown in Fig. 4. The water surrounds is located on a level with the feed water heater in order toreduce the lift to a minimum. The Knorr System The Knorr system operates with the heater under pres-sure, the pump being placed between the heater and thetank. Fig. 5 shows the general arrangement of this from the tender passes to the pump M and from thereto
