SHELL
The boilers are of the three-pass, reverse-flame, wet-back design. The
wet-back furnace is integral with the shell and its ample dimensions ensure good
flame-reversal, and a single array of tubes provide the third pass. There is a short
fire-box and smoke-box at either end of and integral with the shell, and a small flue
spigot connects to the chimney. The unit is mounted on feet, the front two being joined as
are the rear two, and lateral trucking bars join the two pairs of feet at a height which
enables a fork truck's arm's to slide under. A full size access door is bolted over the
smoke-box at the rear; and at the front, the door is hinged and is the full size of the
firebox. It is fitted with a sight port, for inspection of the flame. The boiler is fully
insulated and clad. On the deluxe model cladding is in stainless steel. The shell has a
large steam space, giving a good reserve of dry steam.
