First hydraulic mooring system with both local and remote station control

ESSO

SAN FRANCISCO

MOORED BY

NEW VICKERS

SYSTEM.

A new Vickers hydraulic system provides remote control for mooring the Esso tanker "San Francisco". The operator can release the winch brake, select direction of rotation, or achieve infinite speed control with a single lever. Each mooring winch can be operated remotely or at the winch station.

Located below deck, the Vickers power packages for the 11 mooring winch/anchor windlass stations offer these advantages: smaller components, easy installation, and less service requirements. This system, the largest ever placed on a U.S. ship, can operate up to 1800 psi and 748 gpm, devel- oping 600 hp. It is also less susceptible to hydraulic shock than low pressure systems.

And it costs less than competitive systems.

For information, call your Vickers representative or write for Kit 1108.

Calif., and Leghorn, Italy. Trans- ocean Gateway Corporation, part of the Inter-Freight system, will also operate the new distribution center presently under construc- tion in Howland Hook, Staten Is- land.
