USCG Crew Refrigeration

Plants Supplied By Bailey

The Bailey Refrigeration Co.,

Inc., was assigned a contract by the

U.S. Coast Guard to supply 16 ship- sets of complete refrigeration plants. Each shipset was specified and designed to meet all regula- tory, space and performance re- quirements.

The 16 shipsets are for the specif- ic purpose of ship's stores refrigera- tion to serve the chill, freeze and thaw walk-in refrigeration rooms on board the 210-foot medium endur- ance cutters being overhauled at

Curtis Bay USCG Shipyard, Balti- more, Md.

Each complete shipset included two 3-hp seawater-cooled condens- ing units mounted on an integral strucural steel base; three unit cool- ers; two seawater pumps; three spe- cially designed electric defrost con- trol cabinets; and shipsets of refrig- eration controls, thermometers, pressure gauges, pressure relief valves, bursting discs, etc. Every- thing needed for installation and use in engine room spaces on the second deck of each of the 16 cutters was supplied.

Suddenly, other hi-torque couplings and fitted bolts are obsolete.

The torque transmission revolution is here. With SKF «fA' ^ a' I couplings that let you reduce shaft diameter for a given jfflf.'' rating by 25%, because they eliminate splines and keyway*. .

They keep shafts firmly together even under shock- or 1 * over-loads — yet they mount or dismount in minutes.

With SKF Supergrip fitted bolts that go ordinary expansion bohs one better: hand fitted, they grip flanges by expansion and pre- ^Hj tensioned loads. And they go on or off even more quickly than the couplings.

Both couplings and bolts are proven in ever wider use.

Let us show you a turn for the better in torque, transmission:
